The man-in-sneed, in sneed a hero,
From the foreign boards of chan,
Bounced from pornhub here his fapping
With her rampart to his tapping,
Yearns his growth from penis zero,
Sucks for fruitless hormone mans.

Big dicc frater spreads his knees
Letting his bitch kneel down for succ
The stretchmarks grow along her jaw
For dicc with girth like hockey puccs

The circles of her titties rise
When he complains its second rate
She pleads to squat upon his dicc
And frater's horn's up in her gate

Francesco Petrarca is one of the founders of humanism [15]. The sharp split that he made with respect to the past in philosophical and literary matter produced the birth of that revolutionary movement that will push the new intellectual elite to affirm the dignity of man according to his own intrinsic capabilities, the identity autonomy of classical culture [16 ] and the use of the latter to construct an ethic in sharp contrast with the Aristotelian scholasticism [17], seen as far from the purpose of investigating the nature of the human soul [N 1]. The study of this identity must lead to a revitalization of the ancient [18], consisting in the study and worship of the word (that is to say the philology), from which the understanding of classical antiquity with all its ethical and moral values [ 19].

>The first humanistic affirmation in Western philosophy can be referred to the sophist philosopher Protagora (5th century BC) who, on the basis of the fragment 80 B1 DK [4], stated:

>"... of all things man is the measure, of those who are, for what they are, of those that are not for what they are not. »

>This statement shifted philosophical interest from nature to the human being, which, from this moment, became the central character of philosophical speculation. Man, since the dawn of Greek philosophy, has always been at the center of philosophical speculation since the Ionic and Eleatic school, with the difference that before the human being was seen as part of nature [5]; then, with the advent of sophistry first and Platonic socratism then, the focus has definitely moved on man as such and on his reality regardless of relationships with the forces of nature. With Socrates and Protagora, in fact, we moved on to the stage, in the classifications given by Nicola Abbagnano and Giovanni Reale, "humanistic" or "anthropological", for which the investigation on man takes place through speculation focused on its ontological dimension and its relationship with other men [6]. After the end of the classical age and the beginning of the Hellenistic season, reflection on the human being shifted to strictly ethical problems: Zenone di Cizio, founder of Stoicism; Epicurus, founder of Epicureanism; and the skepticism, current evolved from Pirrone and then continue until the full Roman age, try to give man a practical ethic with which to face daily life and the dilemmas of his own existence, including death [7].


>The works of comedians such as Menander, compared to the universal dilemmas proposed by Aeschylus, Sophocles and Euripides, give way to the daily interfamiliar relationships, centered especially on the father-son relationship: "fatterelli of everyday life with sentimental background and happy ending, put in scene for pure entertainment purpose "[8]. This ethical acceptance continues within the Roman culture, both literary-theatrical and philosophical, imbued with the ideas professed by the Hellenistic schools. In fact, since the second century, the playwright Publius Terentius Afro, referring to the menandric tradition, further elaborates the ethical function in the drama, reaching, in the Heautontimorumenos, the famous quote: "Homo sum, humani nihil a me alienum puto »[9], in which:

>"Humanitas, for Terence, means above all the will to understand the other's reasons, to feel his pain as a penalty for all: man is no longer an enemy, an adversary to be deceived with a thousand ingenious tricks, but another man to understand and help »

people on here actually support and encourage their government's oppression of the people, by saying someone else has it worse.That's like saying i shouldn't see the doctor for my broken arm, because someone else has cancer and i should feel lucky

I like. reminds me of this poem

Autumn Leaves are falling all around

And more of them there are , than can be numbered
A thousand times lovers die,
The fire leaves their lips and so many loves go
With the treacherous flow of Time
So many partings there are, that we can never count
Even as we meet
We have already parted.


Even as I die, Ananda,
I hear the sprouting buds of early spring.
Like the raining leaves, beyond our numbering
Are the Truths that lie under the sky.
I bring only a few by which I feel
We can understand our suffering.


So mournful you are Ananda, that you see not
That death is only a part of all that lives
And what I speak may soon be all forgot
So go and preach what you believe
And gather all your mind can grasp
From the Truths
Raining down like leaves from the silent heavens
And remember that which all my teachings lead towards:
BE YOU LAMPS UNTO YOURSELVES.

Its not about the matter of interest if it came to seeking the truth, with all respect.

Its apparent, especially in our modern world, that there is this delusion of separation; that highly involves where the 'self' sits and that is the duality of our existence.

Its true that there are forms around us and we can study it, study their reactions, study how they interact, its good that you'd always be left with questions (what field of though doesnt thought). This would be the extreme, I guess, of studying our physical existence.

I've never really given philosophy much credit, despite me being unaware of its virtues, because aside from the satisfaction of getting at the 'truth' what ever that may be, like all the fields of though it just leads to more questions.

The center here is the study that collects both and sees them for what it is: not as games of the mind or relationships between matter; rather as a web of interdependent things that arised only because of one another.

I can definitely see this being expanded to different avenues of criticism and there's time for that but practicality doesn't favour it.

Hmm... you really want to extract the truth of what? Physical things or the intangible like consciousness ( yeah dualism ey?)

For physical I'd say chemistry is at the frontier of physical 'extraction'. If a guy from 1400s saw what we do with matter, he'd probably call us alchemists.

For mental phenomemon, I'd study Buddhism.

You can do that with anything. There's even freeware uni courses that teaches entire math programs for free out there. Of course, certification requires you to pay $$$. But if you've mastered it BEFORE you got into the program, well you'll have a good time just partying haha.

Philosophy is just math with fancy words anyway. I always say philosophy as a self-pursuit thing, like read on your own pace, come to your own conclusions and questions and supplement that curiosity with books and a nice community.

Great. Consider planning a scam. One good haul could last you a long time, depending on how you spend your money.

I was thinking selling high quality furry masks (under a pseudonym of course) and go to furry cons and sell them for ridiculously high prices. COuld net me 1000$+ for less than 100$ materials.

Then hope that youre rich. As much as mathematics is crucial to our modern life, no one is gonna hire a pure math majour. Its simply not practical.

Its good to put on a resume though. Shows that you got that intellectual rigor. But in terms of just enlightening yourself, go for it. Math is very interesting, and if youre immersed, youll see things in a different way. Finish an undergrad math then go all the way pHD.

Its true. AT best, you'd get a bank teller job with that (and people with less get that position).

Math undergrads often pair it up with teaching or if they are really smart, go in to Master's and contribute to research. The most optimal would be integrating that with computer science.

>>3651410
Math is the mother of all sciences they say. Which isn't actually true but its a good tool we use to solve science problems.

Anyway, look at this way, if youre well-versed in math you're probably ahead of the curb but if you want go into business, you really have to be adaptable to know what methods they use to analyze and likely you probably touched upon in in school but that extra schooling to specialize will just help you understand the 'lingo' of that field, say business, science etc.
