Episode 5: Ziad Ghazi

What better way to start the year than with a podcast episode? Hello everyone!

I would say that this has been [ ]

Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

Earlier this year, I went to a friend’s housewarming party, for which I baked a lot. I don’t think I’ve ever baked this much in a single day my whole life! I made two batches of my ginger cookies (see link here for the recipe), one batch of chocolate chip cookies, and one banana bread. [ ]

What does it mean to live a good life?

Hey everyone, To kick off the year with a bang, I thought I’d write a post about the question that is undeniably at the core of moral philosophy: what does it mean to live a good life? This is a question that moral philosophers have been asking each other for millennia, perhaps going all the [ ]

If the facts are just there, what does the brain do?

Hi everyone! In this blog post, I’ll articulate why I believe Sam Harris’ strongest argument dealing with the is-ought problem ultimately fails. One of the reasons I think Sam Harris is so popular is specifically because of how strong his arguments tend to be and how clear his thinking is. That being said, as correct [ ]

Episode 4: Casey

Before saying [ ]

Hello readers! I m very excited to finally share what I have been working on for the past few months with all of you! On March 10th, 2023, I had my good friend Amezerion over to my apartment to record my second conversation for my podcast. He used to be my game master back when I [ ]

On divinity and awareness

Hey guys! Hope everyone’s new year is going well. Okay, so I promised something special for this month… I m actually hoping to kick off each year with a special blog post, so I m pretty excited about that. In any case, I had two ideas for this month’s blog post. One of the two was more [ ]

On the deadly simplicity of Ben Shapiro’s arguments

Happy New Year everyone! I hope everyone is enjoying (or have enjoyed) their holidays. I was hoping to have this blog post published last month, but unfortunately, I had less time than I expected last week. Apologies for this! As hard as I try to publish at least one post every month, I don t want [ ]

Gluten-Free Ginger Cookies Recipe

Hey everyone! Today, I thought I d write a post that is slightly different than what I usually write. As much as I love writing about philosophy, this is a post that I ve been meaning to write for a while, and part of me suspects this one will be well-received, especially with the holidays being so [ ]
