1) what % of the people in UK do you reckon are stoics?
2) Have you spent time amongst grounded folks example farmers in non-media overwhelmed realms?
Why do I ask? i run into so many so many so-called-educateds, ie bookish, who look down on theory.
Who do not get “Nothing is as practical as a sound theory”
I wonder if you run into enough such. And how one might awaken them to the shock that awaits them as Generative AI speeds the needle from “a world of memes” to a world that is as sensible and as reasonable for humans as it is for dogs.
As reasonable as the world is for most beings in Nature eg trees in a usually serene forest.
Denmark sounds quite like Ireland, Jannik. Or anywhere else I’ve lived, for that matter. Fluidity of thought and beliefs is something that can be viewed as a sign of weakness, by some, for reasons I won’t go into, ( hard to describe without sounding judgmental), and of being a little bit crazy, by others. Which I find a bit crazy, but there you go! I’ve fallen into the judgment trap, just a sentence later.Your conversation with Dave was thought provoking and extremely engaging, Jannik. Dave is inquisitive, isn’t he? 😀 Many thanks for sharing.🙏
In a more gregarious kind of way, I found. Not as adversarial!😀 Dave structured his questions to you in such a way that I discovered more about your own outlooks and daily practices than your previous conversations with Bing and Chat GP4 combined. 👍

1) what % of the people in UK do you reckon are stoics?
2) Have you spent time amongst grounded folks example farmers in non-media overwhelmed realms?
