an Objective Reality might exist, but that's not the world we as people actually live in. The universe we experience is built inside our heads, out of mental language and implicit metaphor resulting from eons of evolution.
Our stories and narratives are important. Our metaphors shape our reality. Subjectivity matters.
And, if we want, our reality can be sculpted.
@starkatt I like to think of objective reality as a way to measure my subjective view of the world
the problem I have with objective reality is that most people automatically give it validity, and think it invalidates subjective reality
(this is stuff I think about way too much sometimes)
