Ask Luso anything:

[Celestia]

Would you rather fully explore the ocean or outerspace?

[Luso]

If you could go back in time, which historical period would you choose to visit?

Renaissance, Ancient Greece to meet some of those philosophers , or watching the Great Pyramid of Giza being made.

ooooh, well I'd say the ocean... for now! Just because 95% of the ocean hasn't been discovered... I mean think about it, it's right here, on our planet, an integral part of all life, and we have yet to discover most of it. If you compare space exploration to ocean exploration, some may think space exploration is exponentially harder. That is wrong, we've had 12 astronauts go to the moon, only 3 down to the deepest depths of the ocean, the Mariana Trench. It's b/c you can't just swim and look around and discover the ocean, if you go deep the pressure is fucking immense, and it gets pitch black where even strong lights can't provide enough light. For space, we just need a space-shuttle, and space suit... check... we got that, they float in space, there is no high pressure, none of that. Also, we got high-powering telescopes that can veer into millions of galaxies, and the rest of the universe. We can't do that with the ocean atm, closest we got is SONAR.

What if you got the chance to redo one thing in your past?

What if you got the chance to redo one thing in your past?

Well, I think for me it would be... make more of an effort to exert my social presence. What I mean is, even starting in middle-school I began to kind of isolate myself a lot and I started noticing all my old close elementary friends and all that moving on from me. I was an introvert so ofc I was fine at being alone, I quite like it a lot actually... but having friends and close, strong social connections is still healthy for me. I noticed the effect of this, especially in high school with feeling lonely, and not included a lot. Don't get me wrong, I kind of redeem myself, ofc I was always in sports and all that, just never made good close friends... i was among a pretty big social circle but felt not really part of it. Kind of like a black sheep, or an outsider. So now I'm in college and this mistake has cost me no friends, you'd think restarting into college would have allowed me to make some... but that failed. Freshman year I was too shy, reserved, my self-esteem was still too low, I hung out with my roommate and met his friends (all were from his same HS) and this went on for the first like 6 weeks. Then after that it just stopped, the connections never stood, my roommate and I just stopped talking and then I just isolated myself again. It most definitely is an issue I am causing though.

Woops, thats been answered already, gonna think of another question

[Duffmannn]

Falas portugues?

That shows that whiteness = social construct, since it never had a concensus. A guy similar from you, but born in the MENA world would not be seen as white.

IMO that really proves the opposite, in this forum instead of as a social construct, it is used as a racial construct. That is why a person born in the MENA world would not be considered white. In the USA where if it is a social concept it would be different

What if you could travel to any planet and live on it for a day?
