  1. Burger King always gives you small fries, even when you order and PAY for large. This is literally #fraud.
    Apparently, this has been going on for years, and NO ONE HAS COMPLAINED.

  7. A quotation from Eleanor Roosevelt

    I think I am pretty much of a fatalist. You have to accept whatever comes and the only important thing is that you meet it with courage and with the best that you have to give.

    Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962) First Lady of the US (1933–1945), politician, diplomat, activist
    Essay (1951-12), “Growth that Starts from Thinking,” on Edward R. Murrow, This I Believe, CBS Radio

  11. All-new in SEP, Jason Marsh's Evolutionary Approaches to Religion, plato.stanford.edu/entries/rel

    Davin Hunt and Linda Zagzebski have also revised their "classical" entry on Foreknowledge and Free Will, plato.stanford.edu/entries/fre. I still remember studying that article for the first time. The theme was of no interest to me, but Zagzebski's skill in thinking aloud just fascinated a philosophically infested fellow earthling.

  22. A quotation from Marcus Aurelius

    The first rule is, to keep an untroubled spirit; for all things must bow to Nature’s law, and soon enough you must vanish into nothingness, like Hadrian and Augustus. The second is to look things in the face and know them for what they are, remembering that it is your duty to be a good man. Do without flinching what man’s nature demands; say what seems to you most just — though with courtesy, modesty, and sincerity.
     
    [Τὸ πρῶτον μὴ ταράσσου: πάντα γὰρ κατὰ τὴν τοῦ ὅλου φύσιν καὶ ὀλίγου χρόνου οὐδεὶς οὐδαμοῦ ἔσῃ, ὥσπερ οὐδὲ Ἁδριανὸς οὐδὲ Αὔγουστος. ἔπειτα ἀτενίσας εἰς τὸ πρᾶγμα ἴδε αὐτὸ καὶ συμμνημονεύσας ὅτι ἀγαθόν σε ἄνθρωπον εἶναι δεῖ καὶ τί τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἡ φύσις ἀπαιτεῖ, πρᾶξον τοῦτο ἀμεταστρεπτὶ καὶ εἰπέ, ὡς δικαιότατον φαίνεταί σοι: μόνον εὐμενῶς καὶ αἰδημόνως καὶ ἀνυποκρίτως.]

    Marcus Aurelius (AD 121-180) Roman emperor (161-180), Stoic philosopher
    Meditations [To Himself; Τὰ εἰς ἑαυτόν], Book 8, ch. 5 (8.5) (AD 161-180) [tr. Staniforth (1964)]

  27. Dogmatiikan professori Olli-Pekka Vainio kirjoittaa Areiopagilla pessimismistä, areiopagi.fi/2025/10/miksi-pes

    Väärinkäsitysten oikomisen ja joidenkin määrittelyjen kautta päädytään siihen, että "pessimismi onkin mitä hienoin, fiksuin ja kaunein elämänfilosofia, joka ei johda ankeaan synkistelyyn, vaan hyvyyden, kauneuden ja totuuden varjelemiseen". Maltillisen pessimistisen asenteen omaksumiseen löytyy niin käytännöllisiä, poliittisia, psykologisia, episteemisiä kuin esteettisiäkin perusteita. Optimismi pikemmin osoittautuu ongelmaksi.

  32. It was great to present my work on fatalism and climate action in Bougainville, Papua New Guinea, in a session on "Emotions in the transition to a no-carbon society" at the Global Tipping Points conference @uniexeter.

    I talked about high levels of fatalism - beliefs that the future is predetermined and that human agency is pontless - in Bougainville, how this already reduces climate action, and wonder how this could be a barrier to harnessing potential positive tipping points in populations truly left behind.

    Here are my slides 👉docs.google.com/presentation/d

    I also learned from @laurafoggrogers the importance of triggering positive emotions to fully engage the population at large, while Genevieve Guenther @doctorvive proposes a very interesting paradigm combining fear, outrage and desire, drawn from her book "The language of climate politics". I think everyone agrees that one size-fits-all type of communication is not optimal and that tailoring the message to the recipient is very important.

    #DrJohnRowlatt discussed about how to best engage the UK population, and elderly people in particular, to switch to low-carbon heating systems. @larasningrum_dianty talked about the potential for narratives of hope in low-income countries and in general.

    I look forward to continuing this discussion. 🙏 co-panelists & attendants.

I think everyone agrees that one size-fits-all type of communication is not optimal and that tailoring the message to the recipient is very important.

    #DrJohnRowlatt discussed about how to best engage the UK population, and elderly people in particular, to switch to low-carbon heating systems. @larasningrum_dianty talked about the potential for narratives of hope in low-income countries and in general.

    I look forward to continuing this discussion. 🙏 co-panelists & attendants.

  36. It was great to present my work on fatalism and climate action in Bougainville, Papua New Guinea, in a session on "Emotions in the transition to a no-carbon society" at the Global Tipping Points conference @uniexeter.

    I talked about high levels of fatalism - beliefs that the future is predetermined and that human agency is pontless - in Bougainville, how this already reduces climate action, and wonder how this could be a barrier to harnessing potential positive tipping points in populations truly left behind.

    Here are my slides 👉docs.google.com/presentation/d

    I also learned from @laurafoggrogers the importance of triggering positive emotions to fully engage the population at large, while Genevieve Guenther @doctorvive proposes a very interesting paradigm combining fear, outrage and desire, drawn from her book "The language of climate politics". I think everyone agrees that one size-fits-all type of communication is not optimal and that tailoring the message to the recipient is very important.
