can you also do videos on contemporary philosophers

New channel idea… AnxietyToons. It’s a bad joke. But, Anxiety is no joke! I have suffered with it for years. I always say in this time we live in, if you aren’t anxious it means you’re not paying attention.

Ha my happy place is also a super secure bunker. I plan to build it someday, if I don’t die first…..

As a longtime devotee of stoicism I find it to be an art. Easy to understand, but difficult to master. Always requiring diligent practice, but immensely rewarding.

How is mainlander's work a "philosophy", its more like an essay. Where is the system?

I have never heard that anecdote. But because it was Schopenhauer I Knew it was C

Hackett is the S***! Thier Complete Works of Plato. Ruined me on everything academia, education and university. Why? Because they included a book called "Defenitions" written by the scholars of the actual "Academy." Guess what the defenition to philosophy is? It's not "love of wisdom." "Φιλοσοφία: The state which contemplates the truth. What makes it true. Cultivation of the soul*. Based upon correct resson." That f**** n red pilled me so hard! And it's all Hackett's fault. *P.S. What they meant by soul was The Soul with a capital "S" not your soul. Soul to them was this Roger Penrose notion of a Tripartite reality. That was neither dualist or monoist. In that it was divided 3 ways mental, physical and mathematical. Tripartite.Which is later highlighted in Euclid's treatise on geometry. With the 1st postulate on how construct an equilateral triangle using the points of two circles... 😆.. Roger Penrose's triangle ⟁ anyone? Anyways the two circles in Euclid's 1st postulate represent the "monad" and "dyad" the Equilateral Triangle it constructs is the image of the higher form of Triangle that only exists in the mathematical realm. Which is seen by the mind through the physical sense of sight.

Another thing about Seneca that engenders great respect from me is that he was a philosopher who walked the walk. When Nero’s thugs showed up and told him he had to take his own life he did it without fear or complaint. That’s Stoicism in action.

Great video

yo wtf?

It’s not as as silly when you admitted to us how hypnotized you were by the Wednesday Adams dance.,❤ that was a fun one! We like you silly.

I knew no 1. would be Being & Time!

😆 🤣

I have a long thought out test to find my soulmate. It comes down to her response to one word. Brawndo. If she knows she knows. Thanks Amy always always a pleasure!

Thanks for the great video :)

Road trip playlist sorted thanks to this video!

The real tragedy of Epicurus is that the vast majority of his works have been lost to us over time. All that remains are like the crusts from a loaf of bread. Still even these crusts are delicious. Love me some Epicurus. Great work Amy!

Epicurus was an OS minimalist. In those days the markets, (i.e.Malls) were surrounded by walls. His followers would write slogans above the entrances like, “Nothing you find in here will make you happy!” Imagine seeing something like that scrawled across the front of Wal-Mart or Target! Original Philosophy Gangster.

I have a large library of philosophy books which includes some samples from Hackett Publishing. I never noticed how well composed they are until you mentioned it. You have put together a great non-commercial commercial for this publisher. Now I am planning to expand my Hackett library. Thanks!

Prior to this video, I actually wasn't a big fan of the Hacket covers. We had to read some of Plato's Dialogues in a literature class, for example, and I kinda wasn't loving the covers. But now that you point out that some of their covers and solid colors create a vibe with the book/author, I kinda have a growing respect for the minimalism

Anyone out there? 😄

I am so hyped for dis

im sorry but this premier stuff makes me wanna unsubscribe.

Thank you for this 😊

istg you just read my mind. ever since i was a kid, I thought of all these therories and coming to a conclusion of that which defines pragmatism without any prior knowledge. thanks for helping me understand my identity, and that there are others who believe in this. Truly a life changer, and a moment to be remembered.

Great book

The idea of god being the unity or singularity before the Big Bang isn’t terribly abstract, many eastern religions describe god as the “oneness” of existence, most specifically Sikhism. It’s proclaimed that the oneness is still present and it’s the ego which separates us from it and as long as where separate, we suffer.

So true.time waits for no man

Watch all 53 episodes of kung fu the series original and then the pilot

The State of Nature is a myth. Every animal has a 'society' of one sort or another. Humans, however, took their penchant for abstraction and pushed society to the extreme to conquer the world.

Excellent video that really helped understand what Mills what trying to convey.

The thesis also work to not believe in god... you can also be wrong.. you cd start with assumption. And it is better as the assumptions actually has better back ups.. But then again the step to not bring intellectual or intelligence does not work for me.

Addressing Erich Fromm in the most shallow way! 🙈 No offense...

What about the guy he lost that essay competition to?

Makes me think about the emergence of the phrase "I'm just doing me"

I watched the entire video and it only managed to convince Me more to take side of REVENGE cuz i aint got the strength or tolerance to go through all that Mental Gymnastics to "Forgive" someone who comes into my every fucking morning. Better to take Revenge completely than act forgiving when you dont really mean it - when you are just as pissed as before. Man, Just go about your Villain Arc.

Not needing paper for the book makes a good environmental reason for digital. It also takes less space, and you can access more books via internet. But I also want there to be a smaller collection of special physical books with me.

My emotions are in the trash.

Do a video about Julius Bahnsen

If I watch a documentary, I made no choices of the main characters, but I know what they are going to choose. Knowing what someone chooses doesn’t necessarily mean the choices are not theirs to make.

Great job explaining Shestov. To me he was the wests most eastern philosopher :) ... his idea of finding your own philosophy is similar to Osho's comment on everybody should have their own religion. Incredible philosopher.
