CATCH OF THE DAY 🤤 There’s little more exhilarating than feeling a tug at your line and battling to reel in a fish.💥🎣 Whether it’s the one that got away or your biggest catch ever, either way, the highlight is the heart-racing thrill of the chase.🤩 To pursue someone we desire is much like fishing.🤤 Sartre warns that this turns people into an object to be possessed.🥺 Though different to hooking ...

PRACTICED AND PERFECT 🍆😍 When looking at what we know, philosophy seems to be stuck in the mind.🧠 All fucking facts and beliefs.🧐 But in life, most of the knowledge we use is how to do things, not what things are. Like riding a bike.🚲 You can’t study riding a bike.🤓 You can’t learn from reading or watching videos.📖 Hearing from world experts does little good either.🗣️ You don’t use you...

CULTURED COCK 🛫🍆 “Truth is relative.” Essentially meaning, with enough work, every opinion can be justified.🧐 The idea largely comes from the study of other cultures, which became popular in the early twentieth century.🧭 At the time, the search for truth was focused on language, with great minds like Wittgenstein saying we can’t conceive of something we can’t talk about.🙊 But when other culture...

WANT TO PLAY? 🫦 💦 No one wants to fuck someone only interested in themselves.🙁 Even when chances of getting off are few and far between, acting like a selfish prick doesn’t pay off.👎 Why? Ask Game Theory.♟️ Hitting the bigtime in the 1940s when genius geek John von Neumann🤓 worked out the maths proof, the idea of Game Theory has been around since the Ancient Greeks. But it was Thomas Hobbes in th...

SWING INTO SPRING 🍆👀 We can’t escape the seasons, that 23.5-degree tilt of the Earth means we are always swinging back and forth from the sun.🌞 But smack bang in March we hit the sweet spot: a time when it all balances up and everyone has the same length day.🌗 The equinox welcomed in spring and became one of the biggest parties of the year.🎉 It was such a big fucking deal that the Pyramids of Giza, t...

GET YOUR HANDS DIRTY 🫶🌱💦 It’s a fucking understatement to say a lot has changed in the last few generations.😛 A hundred years ago, if you lived outside of a dense city centre, you probably had connections to the land one way or another. You lived rurally or your backyard more than likely had a veggie patch.🌱 Today, you’d be lucky to find a vegetable growing in suburbia with backyards of domesticate...

MINDFUCK TIME 🧠👌👈 Go look at the night sky and think hard about what you can see. 👀 You may realise that you’re not looking at space at all but, actually, time in motion. ⌛ The moon appears how it was 1.3 seconds ago. 🌖 Venus, the brightest object after the moon, was 3 mins 46 seconds ago. The sun you see is from 8 minutes in the past☀️, and Jupiter, 33 minutes. Outside our solar system, Alpha ...

HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY! 🩷🫦 Love as we know it is a relatively new idea. 💞 To fall in love, to adore from afar, to have a soulmate, just wasn’t a thing once upon a time. Why? Because we weren’t monogamous and could fuck anyone who took our fancy. Monogamy creates a tension between moral ideas on how we should live 🧠 and our primal instincts 👅, creating a feeling we now call love. 💘 We didn’t ...

HELLENISTIC THIRST TRAPPERS 💪 👀 ❤️🔥 The impression exists that the great Greek philosophers were a bunch of balding, tubby old men sitting around bullshitting while sipping wine 🍷, when nothing could be further from the truth❎ ‼️ Socrates was famously short and ugly, but he was also a fucking muscle-bound war hero who charged headlong into the enemy during the Peloponnesian War to rescue cap...

IS HOUSEWORK SEXY? 🧽🧹 ❤️🔥🫦 Maybe in raunchy underwear 🩲, but generally, the answer is no.👎 Philosophy disagrees, of course, and sees magic in mundane dusting and mopping. 🤓🪄 It’s easy to kill the mood if you have dirty sheets, leave your stuff everywhere and get the place smelling like garbage.🤢💔 But there is much more to housework than clearing things away. Housework, or any ...

TOO MUCH XMAS? 🎅🥳 I hope you didn’t overindulge this Christmas, but then, that’s what it’s all about isn’t it? 😋 Pampering the senses with decorations, lights, carols and Christmas feasts. 🎉🍻 Lavishing each other with parties, gifts, and oft-times, new experiences. 😍🎁 And it’s something we’ve been doing for thousands of years. To celebrate the passing of winter, the Ancient Greeks ...
