Reno is the best. I love Tig Notaro's dry-ass sarcasm.

Carbon tax employers for miles commuted by employees, unless c-suite and board salaries are equal to the general population median salary for a 15 mile radius from the office location.

It's been over a year since I unboxed it, but my Nintendo 64. Last game I played was Majora's Mask and it suffered a hard reset in the stone temple that made me box it back up.

My girl craves bananas and will circle the table when my son and I are having breakfast, demanding her share. She also likes pita chips.

My old boy (RIP) used to love avocado and seaweed snacks.

Capitalism is all about perverse incentives. It's unavoidable

My teenage son and I (who never watched the show as a kid) just finished season one. We laughed about how many times the dude has died and revived already. It's quite ridiculous.

Just this one picture gave me semantic satiety for the word don't

Lying and pretending to know something who's actually a complete stranger to them

When the stranger is a drunk woman in distress clearly trying to get away from a predator.

And summers in Australia are brutal and can give you skin cancer

 

I don't believe free will is real. I'm not a deep physics person (and relatively bad at math), but with my undergrad understanding of chemistry, classical mechanics, and electromagnetism, it seems most rational that we are creatures entirely controlled by our environments and what we ingest and inhale.

I'm not deeply familiar with chaos theory, but at a high level understand it to be that there's just too many variables for us to model, with current technology, today. To me that screams "god of the gaps" fallacy and implies that eventually we WILL have sufficiently powerful systems to accurately model at that scale...and there goes chaos theory.

So I'm asking you guys, fellow Lemmings, what are some arguments to causality / hard determinism, that are rooted entirely in physics and mechanics, that would give any credit to the idea that free will is real?

Please leave philosophical and religious arguments at the door.
