My Too (Many) Cents

I came upon this line of thought (I like the metaphor of a line of thought because it represents an image of a line of moves in chess in my mind, which is exactly what I believe this to be) while dealing with what this framework calls the problem of frameworks.  The problem of framework basically examines whether there is any grounding or consistent framework through which you can analyze the world at all. There is a deep sense of unease in accepting relativistic or nihilistic frameworks however even those themselves are consistent frameworks at a meta level. The brain, like Krishnamurti would say likes to function in total security. This problem deals with that very same meta level, and whether there is any consistent algorithm (for lack of a better word) to derive security or meaning or rather meta-meaning (if that is a word, since nihilism has in itself a sort of security built into it). Dogmatic ideologies would have you believe that the answer to this is a yes (these answers...

Introduction  Haikyuu is one of my favorite pieces of media of all time. Apart from the art style and the animation, there is something extremely deep that the series is able to grasp at emotionally and it had a lasting impact on me when I watched it (and one of the few things I consider worth re-watching). Though the story is full of many monologues and perspectives of different characters, I believe that it has even more philosophical depth than what would be demonstrated by just those words alone and that is what was able to connect even more deeply with me. The more that I think about it, the richer insights it conceals, and as it plays out on screen there is some substance to it which defies merely linguistic conceptions. I think other pieces of media or art probably have such substance behind them too, however nowhere is it more clearly relatable to me, (from what I've seen until now) than Haikyuu.  Hunger What Haikyuu is really about for me, is an attempt to describe th...

 As my previous posts might have shown I'm currently in the process of trying to digest my way through Heidegger's question concerning technology. I don't get much time to read usually so I haven't been making much progress but his ideas relating to technology seem extremely brilliant to me. Though I haven't gotten through and internalized exactly what the essay means to say yet, a lot of different ideas have been bouncing around in my head. I could have started off directly with the ideas but this preface seemed necessary to highlight what got me onto this line of thinking, though I would like to think that these ideas lie on a previously untraveled trail. I also think it's more important to do philosophy than talk about philosophy i.e. to talk about and create ideas instead of discuss a history of ideas to validate some crystallization of a worldview you have come to so I don't really know how much of these ideas are mine and how much are already about to ...
