I'm putting together slides for a talk on [philosophical] research conceptualization, craft, and design I'm giving next week. This basically consists of digging through old blog posts to find material I can cut and paste. I'm being reminded of some really good posts. Here's a thread of them.

On my blog, I curate spiritual exercises, because I know they answer the needs of the human mind. Recently, a huge influx of bots has made it impossible to keep track of my readership. If you've ever read me, I'd appreciate a small sign. :) #philsky #philtwit philosophicalexercises.blogspot.com

Come for Emily taking about the epistemology of history, stay for the noise Brennan Lee Mulligan makes when he finds out she wrote a whole book about smells.

I am unbelievably touched that @dropout.tv titled my @dimension20.dropout.tv Adventuring Academy episode “A Duty of Care”

I’m overwhelmed today, but I want to circle back in a while to share the links to everyone & everything I cited. More soon.

starting a collection of quotes like this

A few days left for our call for papers on Philosophy through Art, Games and Fiction, dedicated to Helen De Cruz think.taylorandfranc... I am convinced that being playful and creative makes us better philosophers. Prove me right! #philsky #philosophy

Oh boy... My brother in Baruch... You are in for a treat!

Our 2026 Summer Conference is underway! So far, we've heard inspiring messages from our keynote speaker @jigarshahdc.bsky.social and our own Executive Director Ricky Bradley. Thanks to our Champion Sponsor, @climatize.bsky.social, for helping make this year's event possible!

I say this with nothing but love in my heart for the fatherland but can you imagine any other country looking at wildfires and thinking "quick, get a philosopher on the line"

The French government released a PSA about eco-anxiety. They start by granting that anxiety is a normal response to the crisis. Then, they claim it becomes pathological when it is "overwhelming", "creates suffering", "disrupts daily life" with "unpleasant emotions (fear, anger, despair)" #philsky

I wish it were more obvious to more people! :) I'd love to read a fantasy novel informed by someone's deep knowledge of martial arts.

Could obviously be fighting

Could be history, sociology; could be cooking, dancing, poetry, myth..!

Advice I gave to an 18 year old fantasy writer who got feedback from a professional that their writing is good, but that they should first read Hugo, Kundera, Descartes and Kant, before they keep writing, otherwise their book won't be good enough. (Kant?! ... KANT?!!!) #writingcommunity #fantasy

The success of Emily Wilson's translation had nothing to do with Christopher Nolan. The hardcover edition came out 9 years ago and was a huge success. The paperback has been in steady demand since 2018. My store has sold 75 copies (a lot for 1 book for us) and 66 of those were before January.

Hello everyone! Making the move to Bluesky - I'm an early modernist with many interests, clustering around the intersection of literature, intellectual history, rhetoric and religion from 1500 to 1800. I have a few things to update everyone on.

A lovely post about the Focusing process "invented" by Eugene Gendlin. What happens inside u when u go "uh ..." & search for just the right word, the 1 that truly resonates? I've been a Focusing practitioner for 16 years & it's an important part of my life. rivalvoices.substack.com/p/what-even-...

What even is Focusing and why Eugene Gendlin is the greatest man to ever grace the Earth with his existence

I feel like they barely tried with this one. It feels wrong that they would put such low efforts into being predatory. Like, come on! Chase me a little bit.

When Pierre & Ilsetraut Hadot, echoing Thoreau, declared that professors of philosophy replaced true philosophers, I think they were engaging in what Eric Schliesser calls "philosophic prophecy". This concept helped me to make peace with controversial aspects of their work 🧵⬇️ #philsky #philtwit
