Do you think the potatoes feel pain when they are skinned and then cut into French fries?

Spatial Displacement is a wonderful thing but lately I've been considering the space between the Spaces on a quantum level .

I've pondered this before.

At some point I was told about the etymology of the word "apartment"

Apart -separated
Ment -mind

Life is a miracle
Life with capacities to even contemplate such concepts even moreso

That’s the same type of environments we create for ourselves as children. Tents, forts, clubhouses, tree houses etc. In our young minds they are secure and impenetrable by the outside world.
Kind of makes sense that as adults with all the pressures and stress surrounding our lives, we’d go back to familiar refuges.

Anyone ever ridiculing the idea of “safe spaces” is a bumbling fool since we all create and maintain them for ourselves every day.

If more people took the time to actually study etymology their lives and perception of the world around would be changed completely.

I agree. Knowledge of Latin root words helps tremendously.

But since we're getting weird in here, what if I told you words have numerical values?

I go to a field and set up my hunting blind and I create a room. And while I am there it is ‘my room’. And even though it is only thin sticks and camo material in my mind it forms a barrier between me and everything outside the blind. And then when I leave I remove the blind and ‘my room’ is gone like a moment in time.

My friend’s wife was dying in a bed in the living room of their modest home. Just feet away in another house people were living their lives in a completely different space. Considering distance all of the people were close together, but the walls that had been put in place to define the houses created different worlds.


Now apply this logic using unverses instead of spaces

Sounds like a good script ad line for a horror flick.
