@lord_skeptic@YouTube I am still around..Omar. Had an argument with the 'Angel of the darker drink'of your namesake!.. and nearly lost. Scraped through with the skin of my teeth. Happy to be still around.
@lord_skeptic Hard problem of consciousness. Nobody seems to have made any meaningful headway in cracking it. Recently listened to a talk about Attention schema theory of Michael Graziano.
Pretty good imo. Give it a listen.Michael Graziano - youtu.be/ZlDBYAJ1oUw via @YouTube
Hi !
Right as I said this I have a fantastic job opportunity land at my feet- good learning potential and money😭 Now I have to pick between my passion and a safe job with benefits. I'll have to pray istikharah now to decide 😂
I'm super excited. Because for the first time in 6 years of me being an activist I've never had a chance like this before. To really hone my art and focus 100%. To make a massive impact. Islamists better be shaking in their boots for what's about to come. I'm about to level up
One year ago today, I released a video explaining why I came out publicly as having left Islam and the specific denomination of it into which I was born. It's been incredibly encouraging to see how many people are now speaking up. Change is coming.

@aaolomi In 18:50 Allah commands all angels to prostrate before Adam, and all did except Iblis, "he was of djinn". So was he an angel demoted in rank or a djinn elevated in rank? Sorry if I am troubling you with my ignorance.
In Middle Eastern and Islamic cosmology, the djinn/jinn are a class of spirits that inhabit a hidden world, al ghayb. Belief in them predates Islam and they feature in folklore and religion both in a variety of shapes and forms
A thread on the djinn:
@lord_skeptic@HassRad That indeed would be a great loss Hassan! You've got a lovely, lucid and penetrating way of explaining things. I've eagerly devoured all your short videos and would've loved to have more. I hope you'd stay around on twitter, wouldn't you?
