October 2017 Philosophy Think & Drink

Our October Think & Drink was delightful!  A smaller crew with some new faces, taboot — thank so much Jim Hammill for coming (we’re so glad you joined us!) — we enjoyed lively discussion about neuroscience and fatigue proposed by Dana Baumeister.  Namely:

  • What is the neuroscience of trauma fatigue? 
  • How is it that we’re becoming numb or quickly done with things that used to shock us? 
  • And how does this translate to other areas who have or are experiencing horrible traumas?”

This opened up a pandora’s box of additional questions inevitably leading to discussion about cultural evolution, natural selection, and more!

Thank you to P.L.A.T.O. (Philosophy Learning and Teaching Organization) for helping to support our philosophy in the community programs like these!
