The thread about literally nothing OO

I would eat the ones one the left and feed people I dislike the ones in the right..

If this has already been posted here, I am sorry.



But it would be a nice accompaniment for a thread about nothing if it hasn't...



Anyway, this guy explains very nicely the (theoretical) existence of "virtual particles" in quantum field theory.

No no

You're right on time, as it were

Thanks lol

my brother is awfully quiet but I see him

The split second before I read your post, the feeling "a vow of silence" came over me.

I’m a person

"Ravens aren’t only birds of gore and carnage; they’re also exceptionally intellectual birds, and Odin is an exceptionally intellectual god.

This aspect of the connection is indicated by the names of Hugin and Munin. Hugin (Old Norse Huginn) comes from the word hugr,[9] “thought.” Munin (Old Norse Muninn) comes from the word munr,[10] which is more difficult to translate, but can encompass the concepts of “thought,” “desire,” and “emotion.” (The two ravens’ names are often translated as “Thought” and “Memory” in popular works on Norse mythology, and “Thought” is quite accurate, but “Memory” is at best imprecise and rather arbitrary.) The two names therefore can’t be neatly distinguished from one another; they overlap to the point of being virtually synonymous.[11] This reflects the fact that, in the sources, Hugin and Munin don’t have distinct personalities. They’re a duplicate form of the same underlying idea.

More specifically, their names refer to their being concrete visualized forms of the “thought” of Odin. In the Norse worldview, the self is comprised of numerous different parts that are semi-autonomous and can detach from one another under certain circumstances. These detached parts are frequently imagined in an animal form that corresponds to their underlying character. In the case of Hugin and Munin, they’re Odin’s intellectual/spiritual capabilities journeying outward in the form of fittingly intelligent and curious birds that also resonate with Odin’s roles as a battle god and death god."

I found the excerpt above to bring immediately to the mind's eye that of two circles converging, perhaps one with a complex pattern within it but a circle just the same. This is also interesting in that Odin is a one eyed God. Both names denote similar things (Huginn and Muninn). Huginn generally is taken to mean Thought, while Muninn is a more complex concept not as easily defined but could be taken to mean the subconscious. Kind of sheds new light on the OP poem, also taken from this article but known to me for some time.
