Philosophy Now Forum

Are you ready to be catapulted out of your comfort zones?

This thread's purpose it to talk about anything and everything that comes to mind right now, currents affairs that are happening on the worlds stage right now..please keep history in the past, it's gone and irrelevent. What's going on right now is all I want to know.


....Right now, I am thinking about ways on how I am going to keep warm this winter...because of the sky-rocketing cost of energy.

And can we just keep ''personality types'' out of this conversation please....thanks in advance.

If this thread does not activate a response within 3 to 4 days...I'm going to delete it.

Winter is coming means something bad is going to happen.

Does anyone else feel like there is an eerie sense of doom in the air right now in the world?

I don't know, my intuition has never failed me once. It's always right.

There's always an air of doom in the world

Anway, winter is nearly over here, thank fuck. It's been raining non stop for 3 months.

Thanks Veg, I can always rely on you for a response. I'm glad to hear you have survived your winter. A lot of rain though nonstop for 3 months...is that normally the norm in NZ? ... I know the country of Ireland and a place called Bergen in Norway have vast amounts of nonstop rainfall.

It's the norm now. We used to have nice winters, cold but sunny, but now it's just rain, rain, and more rain.

They ought to make energy bills free, that'll free up more money, make it more available to pump back into the ecomony.

No one should have to freeze to death, or starve to death, in 2022

Seems like there is lot of rain falling in some parts of the world, while other parts of the world are suffering from severe drought. It's like there is a strange unbalance occuring.

Yes, it is. Do you have a point?

Don't worry I stole a dragon off this hot blonde chick that was a total bitch, now that winter is just about over down here I don't mind lending it to ya. I'll make it fly North, it'll need a good feed on the way and I'd prefer it doesn't eat Indonesians (it gets terrible indigestion), so I'll direct it for a diversion over NZ, it loves sheep.

Try and teach it how to make Yorkshire puddings, Brian (yeah, I named him after me) should get the oven to a decent temperature.

It's called Climate Change. Over here in Oz, every winter now, there is loads of snow in places that never used to get snow.

There is the possibility due to changes in ocean current flows affected by increase of fresh water melting from glaciers that we may flip into an ICE AGE.

Thanks for the giggle.

It's really warmed me up, in a nice snuggly, toastie, cosy cutie sort of way.

Urgh!!

I hate enduring earths temperature changes. The constant need to adjust. Oh the torture of being trapped as a feeling sentient organism on earth. It's either too hot, or too cold, or too hot or too cold...I just want goldilocks temperature. Please, can't we just have goldilocks temperature, please, please, pretty please!

Oh all right then, just fucking kill me.
