According to wikipedia I think the sort of fatalism I vaguely subscribe to is the closest to determinism
Mostly it is just a matter of worrying about things in the present, not things in the past or the future, because what will happen will happen, and that's just how it goes. I don't take it to some ridiculous hedonistic extreme, but that's just kinda how I operate.
I believe people in first-world countries are real and people in third-world countries are "fake" insofar as they were created for the sole purpose of letting people in first-world countries enjoy their life more by contrast
I constantly flirt with solipsism, I can't really get that far into that mindset but I love the idea on some conceptual levels

I also believe that there is no "heaven" or "hell" - for the people posting on this thread, they are in heaven, for they have free will, agency, and "people" in third-world countries to make them realize how lucky they are by contrast
the reason I put "people" in quotes is because I don't believe they have souls and that they were created by God as props to make us appreciate our lives more

it's literally impossible to be a solipsist

The only way to be a solipsist is to arrive on the idea of solipsism by one's self, which would mean that you're not really a solipsist because you don't know what solipsism is.
I guess other people could call you that, but that's like calling an ancient Greek guy a fag.

well i mean this thread is, hypothetically, for discussion of determinism
if one wants to actually participate they must either already have some basic knowledge or acquire it so i linked the easiest way to get an overview of the subject

I was always going to quote this post

that is a baffling opinion to hold
Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.
just to review

Well, I haven't really been looking.
I know a girl who wanted to get LIVESTRONG somewhere
She thought it meant, and I quote, "like, live... like, uh, strong"

Good thing I made that post then, otherwise you would have returned null and crashed to desktop.

is this an unreasonable way to go about things
in reality it is meant to show support for famed Nordic bicyclist, Lives Trong
in all fairness, some people are stupid
Unless it's vegetarian.
Seriously, fuck those guys.

vegetarian lasagna is like the cocktease of food.
I'm surprised that you've managed to go however many years without running into, say, Chopin
so you are sixteen
I lol'd

Well you see the thing about vegetarians is
by accident. Because some pretentious vegetarian motherfucker made some and you come along and are all, "Don't mind if I do!"
Fucking vegetarians.
will you two combine your talents to draw me the jism police
I'm also cool with Mondays
Son, are you on dope?
i think that the physical universe is wildly unpredictable due to quantum mechanics and materialistic determinism is completely impossible
this does not necessarily mean free will does or does not exist, just that chance exists and events are not predestined
this is what i think!
keep thinking!
but it could taste better
You're like anti-garfield.
No wonder you're funny.
