The rest were worn down by the stupid kids who seem to be the majority. And with stupid i mostly mean how they act. Uncontrollable a-holes. Once you get older and are paying for your education with your own earned money then suddenly everything changes as all the other ones also want to get their moneys worth and pay attention and do the work.

    I used to just hang out, unenrolled at various collage/university libraries, or just on the grounds, chatting with students who were enrolled in various subjects, and some professors would either just allow me to sit in class, or not even know that I was not a formal student. This was some great fun and a lot of freedom to meet people from many backgrounds and varying modes of thought. If you start reading whatever interests you, and you insert yourself, you may find it easier that you think to meet the people and have the discussions that you want.

    Watching late, but this is a phenomenol interview. It's refreshing to hear someone speak so eloquently around "Life". I love how much of what she thinks relates to scaling of architecture. Everything I see says she's correct in her approach and should be very much listened to.

    A physical law, scientific law, or a law of nature is a scientific generalization based on empirical observations of physical behavior. They are typically conclusions based on repeated scientific experiments over many years, and which have become accepted universally by scientist because our collective consciousness agreed on certain physical law that made sense to most physicist society so it became the law . are we creating or discovering physical laws ?

You have the luxury of not having to work (much) on what has become the international language; now's the time to realize that. Just my opinion. I could also ask you if you've ever learned a second language, and whether you know what I'm talking about, but I feel that would be rather useless.

    Considering our understanding of the Universe and the laws that govern it can really only be described as still being in it's infancy, this shouldn't come as a surprise. Relatively speaking, we've only just barely stepped out of the cave and started stacking rocks as a species. Anyone who thinks humans have anything reliably figured out, with any degree of immutable certainty, is guilty of hubris.

This means that you have changed the way at least 1 person thinks in every episode. That is amazing to me and should give you great cause to continue to upload these and keep having interesting conversations. Maybe one of the people watching some of these talk will go on to change the world or discover the answers to some of the questions you and your guests bring up.

    Personally I think the comparisons and fictional VS scenario between Rogan and Lexs podcast really immature. They are and always have been completely different podcasts. And I believe they have both been in the net positive massively for the entire world. In matter of fact they may well have not been one without the other. So whilst I get the comparisons on a surface level, it doesn't need much undoing.

    Your convo at 1:48 about life and death is perfect, 40 something. Just like Sarah says her sense of time is causal, nature is all consequences and doesn't care about life/death. The suffering involved in our finite nature is actually a threshold to cross and free yourself even more. After you wake up out of trance of purpose, you may not have driving questions, but you might also be able to be content. A bird flies into my hand at the top of a mountain. After I die, I am no longer tethered to this bodymind, but all my material and spiritual energy remains here. The piece you may not get is there is a field of unconditional loving that is here, and this field is bigger than the loneliness you talk about here. Cnscsnss is infinitely creative. Beautiful convo
