writing a final thesis paper on Heidegger's three instances of boredom is fucking boring

I'm glad I don't also have an essay on irony to write, as well.

I don't envy you - Heidegger just seems like white noise to me.

Anyway, today I discovered that Aram Saroyan is perhaps the most exciting poet I have ever read.

Help, help, my Being is being suppressed by relations of the world in which I am incapable of being involved with! Time is slowing down! I am in limbo! I am on the verge of disclosing my Dasein to myself! SOMEBODY GIVE ME AN INTERESTING MAGAZINE ARTICLE TO REEEEAD!

I learnt that the art shop i worked in for over a year has closed down, and the company is going into liquidation.

I wonder what they will turn the building into?

Starbucks?

Ignore the dancing twat.

Token semi-detached, semi-ironic, semi-replies ideally need no apply. I've learnt that there is a pattern that shows you that they generally crop up on the first couple of pages of a thread and by the third one they are toned down by the fragmented chit-chat about stuff that goes on around them.

oh, excuse me mister.

i meant it about the black mission figs bit-- i love figs, they are a great snack, make you happy, and this variety costs in the u.s. 1/2 of what you'd pay for calimyrna or turkish figs, and they are softer, & as yummy as their pricier counterparts. food is serious business!

Einstein said that God is childish superstition and Jews were not the chosen people and he declined the opportunity to become the second president of Israel.

LONDON (AFP) - Albert Einstein described belief in God as "childish superstition" and said Jews were not the chosen people, in a letter to be sold in London this week, an auctioneer said Tuesday.
The father of relativity, whose previously known views on religion have been more ambivalent and fuelled much discussion, made the comments in response to a philosopher in 1954.
As a Jew himself, Einstein said he had a great affinity with Jewish people but said they "have no different quality for me than all other people".
"The word God is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weaknesses, the Bible a collection of honourable, but still primitive legends which are nevertheless pretty childish.
"No interpretation no matter how subtle can (for me) change this," he wrote in the letter written on January 3, 1954 to the philosopher Eric Gutkind, cited by The Guardian newspaper.
The German-language letter is being sold Thursday by Bloomsbury Auctions in Mayfair after being in a private collection for more than 50 years, said the auction house's managing director Rupert Powell.
In it, the renowned scientist, who declined an invitation to become Israel's second president, rejected the idea that the Jews are God's chosen people.
"For me the Jewish religion like all others is an incarnation of the most childish superstitions," he said.
"And the Jewish people to whom I gladly belong and with whose mentality I have a deep affinity have no different quality for me than all other people."
And he added: "As far as my experience goes, they are no better than other human groups, although they are protected from the worst cancers by a lack of power. Otherwise I cannot see anything 'chosen' about them."
Previously the great scientist's comments on religion -- such as "Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind" -- have been the subject of much debate, used notably to back up arguments in favour of faith.
Powell said the letter being sold this week gave a clear reflection of Einstein's real thoughts on the subject. "He's fairly unequivocal as to what he's saying. There's no beating about the bush," he told AFP.
