‘The Necessity of Transcendental Philosophy’ ‘The Necessity of Transcendental Philosophy’ Transcendental philosophy, in the context of the philosophy of mind, is the attempt to account for the conditions of possibility of states of understanding. By ‘states of understanding’ I mean all the ways in which subjects can make sense of things – cognition, perception, emotions, the imagination, and acts and attitudes of valuing. I will outline the questions a transcendental philosophy must address, and argue that any complete theory of the subject or of the mind must answer these questions; therefore, any complete theory of the mind must be, in part, a transcendental theory. Introduction A striking feature of the contemporary philosophy of mind is how alien the problems and practices of transcendental philosophy seem to it. (a) No philosophy of mind can be complete without addressing transcendental questions. Understanding This is a rather schematic account, which I will try to fill in presently.

3 Mistakes Women Make When Dealing With Men I've wanted to write this column for quite some time, but I was afraid of coming off as some sort of spokesman for angry dudes everywhere. I'm not. Frankly, I'm not a big fan of most men, and I think women have every reason not to trust us, especially when it comes to sex. After all, most guys would cut their own dick off to get laid. GettyHere's a visual to help with the sound you just heard in your head. So yes, ladies, you're right. #3. This technique is as old as it is pointless, but before we see why, let's get the terminology right. Some of you disagree. GettyThis is you. Distinguishing yourself. Now, before you string me up for being crass, just hear me out. What's playing hard to get? But let's say I'm wrong. Wouldn't you rather overhear him say, "I met this girl the other night and she was so funny I laughed the whole night." Getty"And you know what she said? But there's a bigger problem. #2.

All stereotypes are true, except... II: "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, which means that different people possess different standards of beauty and that not everyone agrees on who is beautiful and who is not. This is the first stereotype or aphorism that evolutionary psychology has overturned. It turns out that the standards of beauty are not only the same across individuals and cultures, they are also innate. We are born with the notion of who’s beautiful and who’s not. On the surface, the aphorism “beauty is in the eye of the beholder” appears quite reasonable. Many introductory college textbooks in sociology and anthropology include pictures of people who are considered to be beautiful in different cultures, and some of them look quite bizarre to the contemporary western eye. Within the United States, both East Asians and whites, and whites and blacks agree on which faces are more or less beautiful. But what are the culturally universal and innate standards of beauty?
40 Belief-Shaking Remarks From a Ruthless Nonconformist If there’s one thing Friedrich Nietzsche did well, it’s obliterate feel-good beliefs people have about themselves. He has been criticized for being a misanthrope, a subvert, a cynic and a pessimist, but I think these assessments are off the mark. I believe he only wanted human beings to be more honest with themselves. He did have a remarkable gift for aphorism — he once declared, “It is my ambition to say in ten sentences what others say in a whole book.” Even today his words remain controversial. Here are 40 unsympathetic statements from the man himself. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. 24. 25. 26. 27. 28. 29. 30. 31. 32. 33. 34. 35. 36. 37. 38. 39. 40.

Breaking Down Beauty: Fixing Broken Powder Cosmetics & Painted Ladies By Sheila Arkee So, you have a favorite eyeshadow, pressed powder, or blush you absolutely cannot live without. Life happens, and sometimes before you even realize it, you find yourself the owner of your favorite product, smashed into 5 million little pieces. When your powder cosmetics are broken into 5 million pieces, you can always put them in a small container and use as a loose shadow, but you DO have the option of fixing the products so it’s almost as good as new. It’s easy! The only extra product you’ll need is Rubbing Alcohol that you can get from any old drugstore. Here is a lovely L’Oreal H.I.P. #319 eyeshadow that was sadly broken upon arrival. Step 1: Dump the shadow into a small bowl. Step 2: Use the back of a brush to crush the shadow into a fine powder. Step 3: I used the cap to my rubbing alcohol as a measurement and poured it into the container with the shadow. I used a wooden stirrer that I had lying around, but you can use a spoon or anything you want. Step 7: All set!
The 4 Easiest Ways to Accidentally Ruin Your Relationship It's so hard to tell people what works in a relationship.

From that standpoint, and my long line of failed attempts to not make a woman run screaming in the opposite direction, I can't even pretend to give advice on that.

A Cup o' Joe: DIY Facial Scrub The following article was written by PETA intern Sofia Hueter. Many of us are accustomed to the daily ritual of guzzling cup after cup of coffee to stay awake because it is so ingrained in our society that habitually drinking something with caffeine in it every few hours is the best way to fight fatigue. Caffeine does, in fact, help to ward off our lingering morning drowsiness, but drinking coffee, though often delicious and enjoyable, is not the only way to get the caffeine fix that your body craves. Did you know that your body can absorb caffeine through the skin? In addition to giving you a pick-me-up, coffee has other benefits. Cup O’ Joe Facial Scrub 4 Tbsp. olive oil 6 Tbsp. coffee grounds* Container for finished product Mix the coffee grounds and olive oil. *Note: The coffee grounds should be very fine because you will be rubbing them onto your skin. The coffee will exfoliate your skin while the olive oil provides a good source of moisture to keep your skin soft and hydrated.

» you’re already perfect ‘Be Content with what you have; rejoice in the way things are. When you realize there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you.’ ~Lao Tzu Post written by Leo Babauta. Follow me on twitter . A lot of people come to Zen Habits (and read other personal development blogs and books) because they want to improve something about themselves. I know, because I was one of those people. This desire to improve myself and my life was one of the things that led to Zen Habits. A powerful realization that has helped me is simply this: You’re already good enough, you already have more than enough, and you’re already perfect. Try saying that to yourself, as corny as that might sound, just to see if it sounds true. The thing I’ve learned, and it’s not some new truth but an old one that took me much too long to learn, is that if you learn to be content with who you are and where you are in life, it changes everything. Consider what changes: Do you have eyes that see? You’re already perfect.
