Should I Facecam?

I discuss armchair philosophers, being unconventional, and learning from criticism. Topics include therapy, polyamory, non-coercive parenting and social dynamics.

Criticizing Research

I explain sense of life, then explain how learning works, how the mind is organized, the hierarchy of knowledge, the role of practice, and what that means for changing your sense of life (or changing your emotions or any other intuitive, automatic or second-nature ideas).
