Nothing *happens* in a truly objective sense. The cosmos is uniform and static.

2018-11-06 07:07:45 UTC  

Balance changes

2018-11-06 07:07:51 UTC  

Meaning something happens

2018-11-06 07:07:59 UTC  

Time is an illusion.

2018-11-06 07:08:05 UTC  

It really is

2018-11-06 07:08:29 UTC  

I bend time with my own perception

2018-11-06 07:08:45 UTC

```"No thinking and no acting would be possible to man if the universe were chaotic, i.e., if there were no regularity whatever in the succession and concatenation of events. In such a world of unlimited contingency nothing could be perceived but ceaseless kaleidoscopic change. There would be no possibility for man to expect anything. All experience would be merely historical, the record of what has happened in the past. No inference from past events to what might happen in the future would be permissible. Therefore man could not act. He could at best be a passive spectator and would not be able to make any arrangements for the future, be it only for the future of the impending instant. The first and basic achievement of thinking is the awareness of constant relations among the external phenomena that affect our senses. A bundle of events that are regularly related in a definite way to other events is called a specific thing and as such distinguished from other specific things…. Whatever philosophers may say about causality, the fact remains that no action could be performed by men not guided by it. Neither can we imagine a mind not aware of the nexus of cause and effect. In this sense we may speak of causality as a category or an a priori of thinking and acting."
-Ludwig von Mises```

```"If what we regard as real depends on our theory, how can we make reality the basis of our philosophy? I would say that I am a realist in the sense that I think there is a universe out there waiting to be investigated and understood. I regard the solipsist position that everything is the creation of our imagination as a waste of time. No one acts on that basis. But we cannot distinguish what is real about the universe without a theory. I therefore take the view, which has been described as simple-minded or naive, that a theory of physics is just a mathematical model that we use to describe the results of observations. A theory is a good theory if it is an elegant model, if it describes a wide class of observations, and if it predicts the results of new observations. Beyond that, it makes no sense to ask if it corresponds to reality, because we do not know what reality is independent of a theory. This view of scientific theories may make me an instrumentalist or a positivist --- as I have said above, I have been called both. The person who called me a positivist went on to add that everyone knew that positivism was out of date --- another case of refutation by denigration. It may indeed be out of date in that it was yesterday's intellectual fad, but the positivist position I have outlined seems the only possible one for someone who is seeking new laws, and new ways, to describe the universe. It is no good appealing to reality because we don't have a model-independent concept of reality."

This is the reason I want immortality

2018-11-06 07:10:51 UTC  

I want to see questions answered

2018-11-06 07:11:05 UTC  

Unless there is a god

2018-11-06 07:11:12 UTC  

I am not gonna bet on that one

2018-11-06 07:11:24 UTC  

Omniscience is impossible, we have already answered that question.

2018-11-06 07:11:43 UTC  

I need biological immortality

2018-11-06 07:11:52 UTC  

Just one cause of death

2018-11-06 07:11:55 UTC  

Old age

2018-11-06 07:12:27 UTC  

I gotta go to sleep

2018-11-06 07:12:34 UTC  

I will try my new trick

2018-11-06 07:12:44 UTC  

I learnt it while meditating

2018-11-06 07:12:59 UTC  

I can sleep without being unconscious

2018-11-06 07:13:05 UTC  

Pretty neat

2018-11-06 07:13:25 UTC  

I can rarely pull it off but it is quite cool

2018-11-06 07:13:37 UTC  

2018-11-06 07:13:52 UTC  

Old age is not death cause

2018-11-06 07:14:03 UTC  

Whatever

2018-11-06 07:14:16 UTC  

You know what I mean by that

2018-11-06 07:14:22 UTC  

I need to sleep

2018-11-06 07:14:40 UTC  

Cells have evolved planed obsolescence.

With the edges falling off

2018-11-06 07:15:31 UTC  

Death is an evolutionary trait that solved the Malthusian problem before humans ever existed.

2018-11-06 07:15:55 UTC  

but its not a sign of a living thing

2018-11-06 07:16:10 UTC  

Creative destruction.

2018-11-06 07:23:33 UTC

No blood, and there was a flood a few weeks ago
