  • Even better is, we casually drop the “Comment” and add the accent of a question instead, so it can go like : “Ça va?” “Ça va.”

    Note that in French we can make the meaning of it vary from roughly ‘not great’ to ‘good’ just by how enthusiastic we are. It’s really only when we want to express radical emotions that we might stop using it.

    (Although someone depressed might not want to express their distress and use it like the expressions in this meme…)


  • It is, and it doesn’t mean i don’t love them, i do.

    Cats are more manageable to love because they don’t lick you, their fur still triggers it but not as much.

    I think i got the allergy alongside my love of pets from growing up with the nicest cat ever.

    So i’m honestly thinking about trying something to lessen the allergy, that or a hairless cat.












  • Elitist entail their is a technical reason behind it, otherwise it’s only gatekeeping.

    In music it can be some music theory, prodigious playing, complex sound design etc…

    I did fall a bit into this idea of elitism too at first. It’s easy when you are just starting to educate yourself and only see the technique.

    But then at some point you gotta start having opinions and preferences that goes beyond rationality, or your not really enjoying an art form.

    You can still be a bit elitist, but then it’s only personal and you stop gatekeeping.

    That said the technical aspects can be very interesting.

    Moreover I also love the way anyone passionate about music describe what they like.






  • Ho, I see what you meant now by this optimizing idea. And yes i would agree, it’s not exempt from exceptions, but this is a good way to describe most brain functions, definitely useful. Reward circuit being a prime example, one you summed up very well.

    I don’t know for protozoan but to anything complex enough to have subjective experiences yes, it could have it. Definitely an interesting idea, wich i guess would fit with God, but possible regardless.
