A suprisingly large amout of people are afraid of thinking, but you also don't have to agree with everything you read 🤔

Belief systems are complicated.
Culturally I am probably Christian.
Ethically I am probably Humanist.
Metaphysically I am definitely an atheist.

I have been playing with dreamstudio art AI for a bit and am not sure if I think it is really creative.
I tried to put in no prompt to see what comes out but it would not work, so I have been trying minimal prompts.
In my head being truly creative is 'ex nihilo' but I am not sure that even applies to people. We all have influences that spark our creativity.

When I was younger I used to think that everybody thought the way I did, & was confused & somewhat aghast when I found out they didn*t.
Later I often thought nobody thought the way I did.
Now I realize it*s more complicated than that.
It*s always interesting to hear .
We are a fascinating and trying lot!
is the only way to go.

OK, another if was right about language and meanings of words are derived from the role they take in a language game and, if an can use words consistently as part of that language game, does that mean that the knows the meaning of the words?

Was thinking a bit more about how well it works for me to have labelled notebooks with *rules* about what goes in each... It's a way to fruitfully harness my short attention span, taking an impression of flights of thought without imposing a cognitive load in general
