Avocado is unique among fruit because it is capable of both the greatest good (turning into guacamole) and the greatest evil (going bad before you can turn it into guacamole)

Avocados are what is known as a "evolutionary anachronism", meaning that they basically should no longer exist. They evolved specifically to coexist with the megafauna in South America, particularly the Giant Sloths (although this view is apparently now controversial). No animals today are large enough to be able to swallow their seeds whole, and distribute them. The Giant Sloths went extinct right as humans settled into South America, most likely due to human influence, so the avocado should have gone extinct too, in a way. But of course the very humans that killed off the sloths ended up cultivating the avocados.

When you think about it we have genetically programmed dogs, by mean sof selective breeding, to love their own enslavement. Good thing they are too dumb to realize how existentially messed up that is, so it's fine.

Business guy who is way too into Sun Tzu is one of the most obnoxious philosophy guys, just behind pickup artist is way too into Epictetus, and...well pretty much anyone is way too into Nietzsche.

Egg came first fyi. Solved.

I don't understand why more philosophers didn't come to the conclustion that God is evil. Given the existence of spiders it seems an obvious fact.

"Also, philosophically speaking, what is the difference between a city being burned down and not? When you think about it, not much..."

As a rule of thumb, if the language of magic in a fantasy novel is based on Latin, they are just doing science. If the language based on the language spoken by the river, the sea, and the creatures which walked the Earth before the Sun and Moon first shone, then you might be on to something.
