Good morning: Philosophy Talk:
Feb. 17th, 2008 10:15 amI may have a new favourite philosopher. J.R. Lucas
"We are by our own decisions in the face of other men's actions and chance circumstances weaving the web of history on the loom of natural necessity."
Also, this Argument (summed up, in argement format, here) for what is really a combination of free will and determinism, a "compatibalism", if you will. Do you like that? Like how I just kind of threw that out there, like I coined it?
Today I think I'll talk to myself a bit, then I'll talk to others. See where that leads. I had seven hours' sleep, and weird dreams which are gone, now, but I'm here, and I need to be thinking about certain things, as well as formatting a paper submission...
I'll see you all later.
[Edit: 10.50am: Damn, that's sad.]

'Sex 2.0 will focus on the intersection of social media, feminism, and sexuality. How is social media enabling people to learn, grow, and connect sexually? How is sexual expression tied to social activism? Does the concept of transparency online offer new opportunities or present new roadblocks — or both? These questions, and many more, will be addressed within a safe, welcoming, sex-positive space.
'Respecting the confidentiality and protecting the identities of participants who wish to maintain a degree of anonymity will be a top priority at Sex 2.0.'
There are some very notable speakers, at this thing, and Early Bird registration ends in two hours.
Get in on it.
