  • The myth that women enjoy sex less than men although not always borne out by experience has become fixed as an expected societal norm. Conversely a woman that does enjoy sex and is not merely enduring it for the good of her relationship is therefore thought unusual and very alluring. The surest example of this is a lesbian encounter as there could be no reason for it other than at least one of the women desires it. Ironically therefore one of the sexual acts that a man finds most exciting is the one he is precluded from by definition. It represents against type evidence of definite sexual desire in a woman which although simplistic and unreal is nevertheless a deep seated view.

  • Also Herod's first wife was called Doris, maybe work that in too if you can.

  • Dont stop there.

  • What about actors who can't play themselves like Peter Sellers.

  • Lionel.

  • You know tectonic refers to massive, dense slabs of heavy rock moving incredibly slowly.

  • But is it as thick as France?

  • The hidden door to retraining as a plumber.

  • Your first line is science is a means to find truth, your second line is I have no proof I just feel it.

    Edit. I did not mean for that to sound so aggressive, I disagree with some of what you said but you are genuine.

  • The forced degradation of words is unhelpful, a word will still be needed to differentiate the unparalleled state of mind from the emerging properties of complex systems. Concepts like consciousness and God are often commandeered to peddle tenuous ideas to the great unwashed and it is ultimately unsustainable. And while we are about it computational modelling is a license to find what you want to find.

  • Keep your head down, don't get involved, promote isolationism, profit from war crimes.

  • Sounds a little hippy to me but 'there are more things in Heaven and Earth than are dreamt of in your philosophy' so if it is the case we will still need a word for what consciousness did mean. Why not leave consciousness alone and find a new word to mean the interconnectedness of grifting ideas to make a living.

  • Is this update planned to extend all the way up the food chain to executive offices, rhetorical question of course. We all know the answer.

  • Instability is probably the aim, stability allows people the time to wonder about improving the domestic state of affairs.

  • Is this the game where we stretch the meaning of words beyond usefulness to force an exciting story. Consciousness is a peculiar state, if everything is then nothing is, is that the point of the exercise.

  • I think people largely are not upset by having paid work generated for them, crushed by the monotony but not upset.

  • People with the sort of knowledge that can stand real conversational scrutiny will just be versions of the people paying them that have failed to find their way. My guess this would not be about real discourse but gloating about serendipity which is ultimately unsettling and sets up the next visit.

  • Because young software developers like all apprentices are mostly not productive, their value is in their potential and it will not be understood what has been thrown away until a generation has been lost and there is no one with experience to lead. The gamble of course is that by then machines will be able to take on those positions too but it's a big gamble and even at best it's betting against people.
