i'll be seeing jordan peterson and sam harris in july

I saw him in nyc. Disappointed there were no protestors lol

they've got a bunch of debates planned because, as you might know, they disagree on a bunch of shit

hahaha i'd be disappointed too

i been saying to people... "i hope something kicks off"

lol

maybe just offended audience members flipping out

Yes they get tied up in semantics though. Sometimes hard to follow their back and forth

Like not the content but the purpose

between harris and peterson? i'd agree

it's hard to follow them and not for lack of comprehension

I can understand what they are saying but it’s hard to understand why they are going so deep on certain things like “what is truth”

For like an hour

douglas murray is mediating, which itself should be fun

@Anomie I've read the 12 rules for life and maps.

They need a mediator

yeah. before i go to the debate, i'll be re-listening to their previous talks

Moderator or whatever

ahh nice one ppf

we'll talk about maps as i'm reading it i guess

I'm currently reading dale carnegie

good book

is that the name of the book?

or is he one of the carnegies

The book is titled How to win friends and influence people

ahhh ye

by dale carnegie

that title keeps popping up for me

maybe i should get it at some point

good read so far

it's a book about influence, right?

kinda like the title suggests but not as basic

forget i ever made that false distinction

lol

Im in chapter 5 right now and so far the best way I can summarize this book is to do unto others as you would have them do unto you

alright cool. i'll keep it in mind for the future. but right now i'm stacked for books :-/ maps of meaning comes next, but i've got a to-read list longer than a leonard cohen song. it's so intimidating i almost don't want to do any of it

That one is good Ppf. The how to win friends. Have you read the four agreements?

no not yet jay is that another one of dale's books?

No I can’t remember the author but it’s a good one that aligns a lot with how to win friends

And also teaches a practical way to achieve perfect peace

Through “four agreements” with yourself. Always try your best, don’t make assumptions, be impeccable with your word, and don’t tale anything personal
