We can ignore reality, but we cannot ignore the consequences of ignoring reality. #stoicism #life #philosophy
@stoicteacher once reality has been ignored the consequences of it become reality and therefore can be ignored again
@stoicteacher Ah, yeah.
Ayn Rand.
Wasn't that the person who was against government help and then applied for medicare under a false name?
Brilliant!
Ayn Rand was not her legal name, but rather a pen name. She filed using O'Connor, which was her husband's last name, and likely her legal one too, considering the social framework of the day.

I'm just not a huge fan of her political or philosophical views in general.
And to be honest it doesn't sound much better when I leave out the last part.
