Me: Yeah, I minored in philosophy in college, but it didn't, like, affect me or anything.
Also me: *busts out the fucking deus deceptor thought experiment in response to a shitpost about hypothetical walruses*
You know, upon reflection

cardinal rule of consuming and following comics: never get excited. never celebrate prematurely. if solicits come out and the covers look banging hold your breath. if the teaser summary sounds good curb your enthusiasm. they can smell it on you. leeches that they are

not-quite-Homestuck AU news and designs
first of all, big thank you to everyone who's shown support to this silly idea of mine. And yes, it's decided now! it will get made!! The estimated premiere date is April 13 for no particular reason
in the remaining time i'm going to figure out and post the designs for the players and explain some things about this project under readmores. So here goes the first batch!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
about the game they're playing:
So first things first, the game i've decided they're going to be playing is basically Double Life²
Tumblr media
my reasoning for this is:
it's great at encouraging teamups that wouldn't normally happen
it'll provide great opportunities for randomization and reader input
it was one of the shortest and least populated seasons
i want more of it dammit
but no worries, there will be a new twist or two added :3c and also new people. And all the soulbond pairs will be re-assigned
(this is probably as good of a place to mention that in my version all the players retain memories between sessions. B/c i thought it would be fun for them to have baggage)

I'm not sure what's funnier: nerds who to all appearances genuinely believe they can resolve millennia-old philosophical conundra in a 200-word Tumblr post, or the fact that their proposed solutions are invariably about taxonomy. Like, your plan is to put an argument to rest by reframing it as a demarcation problem? On Tumblr?

“ vindica te tibi „ – and what we should learn from an old stoic like Seneca
if you have ever studied latin or philosophy, you will certainly have stumbled upon Seneca, a very problematic dude who, however, occasionally said the right things.
“ vindica te tibi „ is my all-time-favorite latin quote, it litterally means “ vindicate yourself for yourself „, but we can translate it better with “ take control of yourself „. in order to deeply understand this statement, let's take a look at stoic philosophy.
stoicism [ from latin stōicus and ancient greek Στωϊκός ( stōïkós ) ]: it’s a philosophy designed to make us more resilient, happier, more virtuous and more wise and – as a result – better people, better parents and better professionals. it is a philosophical and spiritual current with a rational (human rationality is the basis of everything), pantheistic (everything is God, God is everywere, the whole universe is God), deterministic (nothing happens by chance but everything is regulated by precise logical laws), and dogmatic (all that is, as being, is real and concrete) imprint, with a strong ethical and tendentially optimistic orientation. stoicism was founded in Athens around 300 bc by Zeno of Citium and later it was introduced to rome by Panaetius of Rhodes in the 2nd century bc. stoicism is a tool in the pursuit of self-mastery, perseverance, and wisdom: something one uses to live a great life, rather than some esoteric field of academic inquiry. [ sources wikipedia and dailystoic ]
Seneca was a stoic philosopher who lived in rome in the 1st century ad, and he wrote this quote in a letter addressed to Lucilus, a friend of his much younger than him, interested in philosophy and politics.
in this letter ( the first of his epistolary ) he deals with the theme of time and the brevity of life, a subject that he would often return to in many of his works. basically Seneca claims that life isn't actually that short, as the majority of people complain, we're just very good at waste our time beign slaves of something, instead of using it wisley. there are many ways people waste their time, he calls them " the busy ones ", those people who spend their energies on useless business and relationships, which lead neither to their personal growth nor to an economic, social or psychological advantage, just because they're used to it.
Seneca is saying that we are so used to wasting time, doing certain things just because we have been taught to do so, that we don't realize that we could do much more for ourselves and for our enviroment if we only knew how to use our time correctly.
" vindica te tibi " means that you have to take control of your time, because no one can give it back to you. your future depends on the investment in yourself and in your time, your future and who you are as a person is up to you. take control of yourself.

Day 1 of 100 Days of Productivity 🪴
Here is my day at a glance:
Started my new skin care regime
Ate a health bowl of fruits for breakfast
Studied my least favourite subject all day because mom picked that finger
Had study sessions with my bff
Used pretty study background
Ate all meals of the day
Did my night time skin care
Just doing all of this on day one made me feel motivated to do it the next day. Good luck to me! I hope I can complete this challenge and come out with better habits. 🍓
