I feel like my house is constantly a fucking mess. My wife and I work 80 hours between us and we have a 2 year old and I feel like it’s constantly a mess.
We do what we can and often spend a couple hours on a weekend tidying but it’s a losing battle.
How do you cope/keep on top of things?
Aristotlian theory of natural place 💪💪
It’s very interesting indeed. A while ago I read Carl Popper’s Open Society and it’s Enemies. In that book he argues that Plato and to some extent Aristotle have developed underlying philosophical tools to support, for a lack of better term, “closed” societies. For example slaves rather remain slaves, farmers remain farmers, and rulers remain rulers. He argues that they contribute to a totalitarianism, and undermine democracy by discouraging being equal and in general “change”.
Take all this with a grain of salt, since it’s a while I’ve read the book, so can’t articulate it better. But your comment reminded me of all this, so I thought it might be interesting for you and other readers.
ps: I personally think there is no natural place for things, that’s us, sentient beings, who define that and give things meanings.
Jokes aside, natural place is usually instrumental. Of course, this is in regard to material objects, not humans.
Though, do you know of any philosophy/humanities community? If not, how do communities expand (in order not to just create one where there are 2 guys and die quickly)?
No, not really. I’m still learning my way around in Lemmy. I use wefwef.app and just recently the developer has added a subreddit import feature which might be able to find matching communities for you. though didn’t work great for me.
Bruh. Sad. If I had enough time, I would’ve started one. But, bruh.
Same here. btw, I just subscribed to [email protected] , it has over 500 members, so you might want to check it out.
It’s showing me it has 5 users per month?
