A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Please don't post about US Politics.
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

MODERATORS
Finishing up “The demon-haunted world” by Carl Sagan, which is really good but a little repetitive, and I’m a few chapters into Bertrand Russell’s “The Problems of Philosophy”, which is a great little book that summarizes the big questions of philosophy up to that point in time (in Russell’s view, of course).
After those I’m looking to start Richard Feynman “The Pleasure of Finding things out”, since the Sagan book got me wanting more popular science stuff, as well as “the people’s history of the United States”, since that comes recommended from some friends (and will hunting of course!).
