But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation She's coming in, twelve-thirty flight The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation I stopped an old man along the way Hoping to find some old, forgotten words or ancient melodies He turned to me as if to say "Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you" Gonna take a lot to drag me away from you There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do I bless the rains down in Africa Gonna take some time to do the things we never had itt discuss great 80s songs/bands

it's the ship of theseus. i think it's somewhat platonic, as well- there is "meta cognition," the person, and there is the idea of "meta cognition", or "meta cognition-ness." your form merely reflects this fundamental idea of "meta cognition," so a reconstructed body (as long as you retain your knowledge and memories) is nothing more than another reflection of what it is to be "meta cognition"
The problem with Platonism, Aristotelianism, Cartesian Dualism and all of the monotheisms is that this idea of the 'ego' which they posit--explained by you--is necessarily a sort of non-empirical stratum, from which properties arise. It doesn't make sense. The thing-in-itself isn't distinct from its properties.
I'm much more of a Humean in that properties cause substance. Not the other way around. I agree that memories and continued perception would contribute to this idea of my 'ego' continuing, but I'm not sure how much physical continuity--especially at the atomic level--counts.
that's a fair analysis. theseus's paradox doesn't really have a clear cut answer, which is why it's been tossed around in various forms for thousands of years. i think this naturally leads to a discussion about transhumanism, too

I've been questioning the ethics of owning pets at all lately.
it's usually mutually beneficial for the owner and the pet. many pets are functional- cats hunt household pests, dogs can be effective at herding or hunting, etc. the pets are therapeutic for humans, they make us happier by being in our lives. in return, we give them a warm place to sleep and live, plenty of food, medical attention, and freedom within the limits of safety (in the ideal scenario- many people abuse their pets or do not care for them properly, but the general idea is fundamentally morally sound, methinks.)

Yes.
Although, I really can't answer whether or not this reconstruction would still be 'me'.

Stop trying to sound dramatic
I'm here thirty minutes and you're already being dicks. They were right about this place.
lighten up bud, or did you come here looking for a reason to call us dicks? People just poke at each other and jest here in good fun
It doesn't really have the same vibe as if you were all my good mates.

this place is what you make of it if you see "ASSHOLE" in every username, we'll probably all seem like assholes come into it with an objective view and no prejudices and you might be surprised

I'm not the only one getting the feeling that she's getting off without any legal charges because her husband's a cop, right?
noooo, certainly not, that would imply that there's corruption in our law enforcement, and that's just silly! ... right?

gearheads are compensating for their small dongs by talking about engines and fast cars
it doesnt matter what car you have as long as it gets from point a to point b
Guys that drive lifted trucks are the ones with small knobs
