#coincidence — Public Fediverse posts

I love it when more than one person on my feed talks about the same random thing at the same time.

We need a word or phrase to describe this phenomenon. If you’ve heard a good one or want to make up a new slang term, please share. I will use it!

(But I hate seeing friends getting hurt, so I declare this trend officially over. 😂 Be safe out there, everyone. )

One thing which bothers me about the prose in the Sutta Pitaka is it often presents plot devices as facts, eg: the Bāhiya Sutta (Ud 1.10) tells a story of a monk who is in a hurry to attain enlightenment, instantly attains it after talking to Buddha, then immediately dies from a cow attack.
