Cancer Posted September 6, 2021 Report Share Posted September 6, 2021 I am told that cartoons made by and for astronomers are unappreciated by those not in the discipline, which sort of feels like my reaction to that, which seems to be by & for philosophers.

Bazza Posted September 11, 2021 Report Share Posted September 11, 2021 I honestly don't understand how anyone can NOT study philosophy. Imagine going through life without being deeply uncertain whether or not chairs exist? Is such a life even worth living?

death tribble Posted September 11, 2021 Report Share Posted September 11, 2021 It was the Last Night of the Proms and the audience was back in fine voice. And the one time when the British can be unashamedly patriotic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted September 12, 2021 Report Share Posted September 12, 2021 It occurs to me this morning (as I prepare to go to a memorial service) that the true glory of social distancing is that you don't have to shower before social events.

Lawnmower Boy Posted September 16, 2021 Report Share Posted September 16, 2021 It seems like we live in a world where the things that people don't want to do, or have done, somehow just become unpossible. The house next the place where I rent went for $2.5 million three years ago, but there are two vacant lots (large commercial lots, not house lots) which have been vacant for twenty years now. Why haven't they been built over with "mixed commercial/residential" developments? Who knows? So, anyway, it sometimes seems like academics, particularly in the humanities treat the obligation to write and research as an unreasonable imposition. And in the first week of back to school, it has been discovered that the ASRS material handling system that replaced open shelves in the University of British Columbia's main research library some years ago is broken, and will take up to two months to fix. In the mean time, my alma mater basically doesn't have a research library. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted September 25, 2021 Report Share Posted September 25, 2021 My employer has put little stand-alone HEPA air filters in our offices. They are little white cylinders about 40 cm tall and 20 cm in diameter that stand on end. I think they look like Spoiler daleks that have been reengineered to look less aggressive to a 21st Century human. Sneaky daleks, if you will.

death tribble Posted October 2, 2021 Report Share Posted October 2, 2021 didn't go into my e-mail for a few days but when I did, oh boy. One of my friends in America suffered a heart attack at home. Fortunately his wife got to him and performed CPR. He is now recovering in hospital. The friend I first made in America e-mailed me the news. So not much of a crank but a close scare. I went to their wedding 20 years ago. I have sent condolences to Chris, the wife, and had a reply. Oh and please note, all replies to the Musings on Random Musings thread. Thank You.
