Too many decisions to make. Now considering if I should add a section about clitorises and female orgasm. On the bright side, I have reread my thesis argument/proposal and realized how much I have strayed away from my original target. The course adjusted back to the original target, easy peasy.

You teach me a word (dilettante) today :) By reading the Toolkit, you become more equipped than me to talk on the subject.

With my limited foresight based on insufficient reading, perspectivism is the way to go in the philosophy of science, but not for me, not yet, not in this thesis. Yet I am reading on it now to avoid it, probably avoiding perspectivism won't be as easy as avoiding Aristotle.

Sometimes, I wonder who is going to write this thesis. Obviously, me. Which me? Obviously not this me? Where can I find another me? How can I become one who can finish this thesis? One who can bite the bullet.

Maybe I am more scientific realist than I have realized when it comes to "real" issues of science. 🤷‍♂️

One might think I should have decided on such matters before starting to write my thesis, but in my defense, I have thought that my topic is beyond this debate.

We should start naming hurricanes after fossil fuel companies.

In the first version of this post, I wrote "real" instead of "physical." But social is also real so I have changed it from "real" to "physical." But after a moment later I returned to confusion about which one is it. It is the same old realism/social constructivism debate, let's put it that way.

Also, I know these posts are cryptic but what can I do? I can't write down my whole thesis here.

I am once again at the crossroads of choosing between the "social" and the "physical." I don't want to choose between them also I don't want the "physical" to keep making comebacks and demand more share. I want the physical to know its place.
