The Philosophy Discussion Forum

I've heard of Anne Rice but I've never read or seen anything of hers.
I am young. 16 in year 11. Thankyou for you're compliments.
I have ellaborated on the bove and submitted it as my assignment. I got 16 out of 20. Probably due to the quality of the second part. I was rushed.

My situation exactly!!
Looking forward discussing/conversing with you.

I'll edit the punctuation in where I believe it to be appropriate. Just for you. :) Passion burns through ladies lungs; A crazed hell-fire in her breast. When a spell like this becomes, The captured heart will get no rest But find solace in its ache, at best. She lets the ash fall on her feet, Bear ...

I'm a grammar freak but, to me, poetry isn't about puncuation or grammar. The words are there, that's all that matters. Read it at the pace and frequency you find comfortable; the pace at which you can derive the most meaning personally. If you know where the correct punctuation is supposed to be, p...

I know it's not particularly philosophical, but it has inspired, in me, much philosophical thought concerning life and death. I do extension english at school and I have been given an assignment based on Dracula. It is a polyphonous text but we never hear from Dracula's perspective. I have to write ...

It's very juicy.

Thankyou.
I know. It's very interesting. I'm learning a lot already.

I'm already liking it here. I can see myself becoming very addicted very quickly. Which is just as well as it will replace my facebook addiction and facebook is just not productive at all. I'm only young and I have much to learn so I am here to observe more than anything. I am looking to explore and...

The tenth of a brain thing, I am fairly sure, is myth. I wouldn't be surprised. Nah, wasn't that clear, I'm just a genius ;) :P Oh of course. Ha ha :) Is it a personal inability to act, or do you feel that, as a woman, you are constrained from making the first move? Neither really. It's because of ...

"I think the damage tends to be vastly exxagerated" I agree. And how damaging can it be if we only use a tenth of our brains, or something ridiculous. [/quote]I would guess unrequited love, or a love towards which there is an inability to act and possibly the acts which are possible that i...

But, a lot of these methodologies deteriorate brain function, even if they do provide insight. Anyway, this is a poetry bin. I wrote a new poem but I'm not sure how to finish it. I'll put it up though - maybe someone will be able to help me. Tell me what you think its about. :) Passion burns through...

Spinning makes me nauseous. Perhaps I shall take some travacalm one day and spin in a field for a while. I'd have to be listening to some Enya while I do it... and maybe afterwards I'll eat a sandwich. Oh I can't wait! So why do you do it? When people ask me I find it very hard to explain myself. Ev...

Ah, my story is much the same.
I've also experimented with sensory and sleep deprivation. (Although the latter wasn't very successful as I kept falling asleep. )

Out of curiosity, do you consider yourself a psychonaut? Or do you just like the term?

If the former be so, by what means do you practive psychonautics?

(If you don't mind me asking)

It thoroughly intrigues me.

Thanks Psychonaut :D This one's called 'Chasm' Pixellized digits dancing Rapidly round and round Screens of flashing static fizzle Dashing up and down A constant groan; a mumbling Nauseating to hear Masses of metal crumbling Screetching in my ears Corrasive acid eating walls Dirty toxic waste So muc...
