The question here is phrased in such a way that is opens the questioner to ridicule, but it is a
#valid #question and one that I've researched via #AI.

According to my findings, all of the notable philosophers of the 19th and 20th centuries, including
#Nietzsche and #Arendt, were paid professors, who came from upper-middle-class upbringings.

Philosophers from prior centuries also came from upperclass upbringings and had a great deal of formal education; they had less institutional backing as paid professors.

In the Early Roman Empire, Epictetus was a freed slave who taught stoicism. Diogenes the Cynic (of Classical Greece) taught philosophy while living as an unemployed hobo.

#Epictetus and #Diogenes are the only two intellectual figures in history who lived economically precarious existences. And #Jesus, if one counts him as a #philosopher. #philosophy #history #academia

I hate that like….for a trans man to enjoy makeup and cross dressing he has to call himself nonbinary to be #valid. Maybe I’m not nonbinary. Maybe I’m a man and that’s all I ever want to be seen as but I’m fucking cool and fashionable and good at makeup and I serve cunt.

#Olympic #boxer perfectly explains why he doesn’t have to take #testosterone to be a #trans #man.

His #trans #identity is #valid despite his #decision not to take #hormones. He has been highly vocal about his decision not to undergo HRT or surgery. “[I] will never take ‘T’ and will never be on ‘T’, but consider myself a trans man because my heart says so,” the middleweight wrote.

#HTMLFirst” is a fantastic mindset, but html-first.com is a disappointment and a distraction.

Not once does that website suggest that #HTML should be #valid (to even constitute HTML), #semantic, or #accessible.

But HTML First thinking starts with actual HTML, used according to purpose, accessible to everyone.

That’s the “HTML First” we need.

(I’m cooking a book about that kind of HTML First, but it’s too early to make announcements.)
