  • I was not proficient with this topic, so had to look it up:

    The Ship of Theseus, also known as Theseus’s Paradox, is a paradox and a common thought experiment about whether an object is the same object after having all of its original components replaced over time, typically one after the other.

    In Greek mythology, Theseus, the mythical king of the city of Athens, rescued the children of Athens from King Minos after slaying the minotaur and then escaped onto a ship going to Delos. Each year, the Athenians would commemorate this by taking the ship on a pilgrimage to Delos to honour Apollo. A question was raised by ancient philosophers: After several hundreds of years of maintenance, if each individual piece of the Ship of Theseus were replaced, one after the other, was it still the same ship?










  • looks somewhat healthy. Almost all 80+ with some peaking 90+. I take it.

    Seems to be this study from this year.

  • Up until 2019, fentanyl could be bought by just typing it into chinese onlineshops. Since then, China is not diverting the course of being the worlds 1# fentanyl producer and the #1 outlet market is still the USA. But China can not send it straight to the US anymore but is bringing it to mexico and using the already active routes to swamp the US with that deadly drug. The China-Iran-Russia connection would do anything to weaken the west. This is just one of their operations. The british addicting hundred of thousands chinese with opium 200 years ago in the 1830s is still a very big ignominy in chinas victim narrative (Century of Humiliation). Applying this scheme back to “the west” is their tit-for-tat response to pay back. Chinese ambassadors and cultural attaché mention it all the time in interviews in the last 20 years.
