XVII( I do not love you)

I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,
or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.
I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
in secret, between the shadow and the soul.

I love you as the plant that never blooms
but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers;
thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance,
risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body.

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.
I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;
so I love you because I know no other way

than this: where I does not exist, nor you,
so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,
so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep.

-- Pablo Neruda

this is one of my favorite poems :)

I always thought this about storm troopers.

George Washington's dream...

Interesting point...

from @Liberty4Masses

I wanted to update everyone on the #QOTO peertube instance and other services. Long story short the thing thats holding me up right now that im looking into is SAML and LADP so i can make a unified user login expiernce some how. I dont want people to establish accounts on secondary services and then have to worry about overlapping accounts later. So its turning into a bit of a project but I'm still working on it.

I could not possibly love this any more than I do.

My latest toy. Can't wait to test her out.

This gave me flashbacks to my university days.

I love all cultures, white culture, dutch culture, french culture, vietnamese culture, indian culture, any culture you can imagine. I find them all so rich with lessons to learn from, delicious food to try, unique ways of looking at the world and morality.

It is why there is nothing that will send me running from a person faster than to hear them be hateful towards any culture. Those people have issues and while I hope one day they grow past them I dont need that shit in my life.

I dieted that one wednesday like 3 weeks ago when i passed out without eating dinner. How is it I'm still the same weight!

Note to self: in a next life don't come back as a roll of toilet paper.

They finally found a meme that embodies me.

Russell's Paradox:

In a group of people who are shaved there is a single barber. The barber shaves all the people who do not shave themselves. Who shaves the barber?

It can't be the barber himself, because he only shaves people who do not shave themself, thus he can not shave himself. It also can't be anyone else as the barber shaves ALL people who do not shave themselves, so no one else could possibly shave another person.

Therefore it is impossible for all three properties to define a set at the same time:
* everyone is shaved
* The barber shaves people who don't shave themself
* The barber is the only person who can shave other people

This creates two sets one of the people who shave themselves and one shaved by the barber. Since the barber is not allowed to shave himself the sets must be disjoint, but since the barber must be shaved they must also intersect. Since both are not possible there is a contradiction and thus the paradox.

What this means is we can not say any arbitrary set of properties can be used to define a set, as some may give rise to a contradiction.

A more generalized example of the paradox is the idea of a set that contains "all possible sets that do not contain themselves as a set". This is called the universal set. So for example if we had set A defined as the numbers 1, 2 and 3 or A = {1,2,3}, however if set A was A = {A, 1, 2, 3} then it would be excluded. The problem arises when you consider if the universal set includes itself as an element by this definition. If it doesnt contain itself as an element then it qualifies for the rules of inclusion, and thus is included, but by including it it now DOES contain itself as an element thus can not be included. Reaching a paradox once again where the definition of the set as we defined it can not be satisfied. Another example that a set can not simply be defined by an arbitrary collection of properties. Some combinations of properties are invalid while others are not.
