Welcome To My Decadent Lair of Debauchery, My Fellow Degenerate Here's a Free Superpower: Treat being annoyed as a fun activity; laugh about the stuff that kinda bugs you. You’ll live a happy life :) Like, for the most part. You’ll reach a point where everything that annoys you is kinda funny. There you go, just gave you a superpower! (While this won't turn you into an anime protagonist, I still highly recommend it) How to Date Your Waifu: Linked below is the mostly easy to read, 7 page philosophy paper that explains how: Philpapers: "Possible Girls" by philosopher Neil Sinhababu (Published by USC) Some beautiful excerpts of its absurdity (remember, this actually got published): "Now I just have to pick the possible girl who has all the properties I’ve stipulated. To recap; in addition to being an immortal with eternally youthful beauty whom I would find extremely physically attractive and lovable (I will not enumerate her attractive and lovable properties here)" "There are myriads of possible boys, girls, penguins, and talking donkeys whose affections have settled upon you. Choose among them as suits your preferences" -Tldr: Basically, if you believe in modal realism (explained later), then you can date your Waifu. The downside is that they exist in possible (and impossible) worlds that are not spatially or temporally connected to our world so you can't meet them. However, you can still communicate with them by writing back and forth exchanges in a journal (since there has to be a possible world in the infinite worlds where said exchanges are done). To spice things up or surprise yourself, you can have a friend write the responses your otherworld lover(s) gives you. -A more technical explanation if you're interested: In philosophy and logic in general, there is a concern with what makes a counterfactual claim true or false. It's honestly a hard question (most agree its still unsolved). Here's two examples of a counterfactual claim: "If anime did not exist, I would not be a weeb" or "If dogs did not have ears, they would not be able to hear". These seem to be true claims, but why are they true? Claims usually describe real things; however, these counterfactuals describe things that aren't real. David Lewis, one of the biggest philosophers of the 20th century, suggests that actually, counterfactuals are describing things that are real. These things happened in "possible worlds" (modal realism theory), which can be seen as alternate universes where there exists one possible universe for every possibility. So possible worlds very similar to our, except anime did not exist or dogs do not have ears, exist and this is the true things the counterfactuals are describing. While few philosophers actually support this theory, it's a very impressive solution and arguably the best solution we have to counterfactuals currently, despite its absurd nature. To showcase the absurdity modal realism theory allows, philosopher Neil Sinhababu presents the possible (and impossible) girls scenarios. Basically, if you accept the theory of modal realism, then you must accept the entailing possible girlfriends and impossible girlfriends scenario. This highlights that modal realism is pretty absurd, but not necessarily false. And despite the mentions of a beautiful, immortal girlfriend, tentacles, and talking donkeys, this was published by in a serious philosophy journal. I say goodbye unto you, And with this parting, My most beautiful dream dies inside me... But I tell you goodbye, For the rest of life, Even if I spend all life thinking about you. |
