genuinely the idea that not caring about the lives of fellow human beings makes you more rational is far more widespread than it should be. if you never bother to learn cognitive empathy your own life will be worse anyway. and while some people see cognitive empathy as a default, I believe that's not true. "out of touch" would not exist as a concept if everyone had adequate cognitive empathy to navigate relationships and life in general. just #thoughts

Just the thought that you need to be a better Muslim shows that light still exists in your heart

I’m a simple human i see sunset and be instantly amazed every time

what’s it called when you’re so disconnected from reality that cold water doesn’t feel like anything and you can barely taste food anymore

“I very proudly entered the forestry school as an 18-year-old and telling them that the reason that I wanted to study botany was because I wanted to know why asters and goldenrod looked so beautiful together. These are these amazing displays of this bright, chrome yellow and deep purple of New England aster, and they look stunning together. And the two plants so often intermingle rather than living apart from one another, and I wanted to know why that was. I thought that surely in the order and the harmony of the universe, there would be an explanation for why they looked so beautiful together. And I was told that that was not science, that if I was interested in beauty, I should go to art school. Which was really demoralizing as a freshman, but I came to understand that question wasn’t going to be answered by science, that science, as a way of knowing, explicitly sets aside our emotions, our aesthetic reactions to things. We have to analyze them as if they were just pure material, and not matter and spirit together. And, yes, as it turns out, there’s a very good biophysical explanation for why those plants grow together, so it’s a matter of aesthetics and it’s a matter of ecology. Those complimentary colors of purple and gold together, being opposites on the color wheel, they’re so vivid, they actually attract far more pollinators than if those two grew apart from one another. So each of those plants benefits by combining its beauty with the beauty of the other. And that’s a question that science can address, certainly, as well as artists. And I just think that “Why is the world so beautiful?” is a question that we all ought to be embracing.”
