So, it's Monday again, and a good moment to remind you that this platform is rotten, and it's time to move on. The app below enables you transfer your things from this cesspool to The Better Place (haven't used myself, but people say good things about it). blueark.app/en-us/

Interesting. According to a new result, studying philosophy makes people better at thinking and arguing, and better at assessing different points of view. Creme de la creme of the disciplines. Blimey! So, now more philosophy to everybody, right?

A Chinese economist "argued that university was a consumption good not an investment, and he was amazed that Britain was 'so rich you can keep half your young people out of work for three years and make them drunk'." Perhaps the very basis of democracy? theguardian.com/commentisfre…

I've been really grateful to have this blog as a tiny way that I can help others and offer something. And it's been great fun. I pass over to Aisha who will be a wonderful editor!
Our team is changing! Let's thank Kathleen Murphy-Hollies for being an exceptional editor for the past two years and a half and let's welcome as editor Aisha Qadoos, a doctoral researcher working in the philosophical issues raised by trauma!

It’s cool how Hume’s pithy point about causation made Kant malfunction and produce his incomprehensible corpus that birthed continental philosophy.
