Return it once and then borrow it again

You’ll have to take care of it until tomorrow morning.” .... Excuse me for a minute. I’d like to borrow a bicycle, please. “Then write your name and phone number on this piece of paper. How long are you going to ride?” I’ll use it for about an hour from now, okay, I’ll bring this bike here tomorrow. Is the person who supplements something definitely advantageous? When something is complemented by something else, I wonder if the complementer has a clear advantage. If the basis of the relationship of things is assumed to be asymmetric, then the solution is correct. However, although the complementary relationship appears to be asymmetrical at first glance, I wonder if its content is completely asymmetrical. “If you use it for more than one night, please return it by 10:00 a.m. the next day. After 10:00 a.m., you will be charged an additional fee.” understood. Let’s borrow this bike. After about an hour, I will return the bicycle here, r...

Is the dispute a discussion?

A company selling sports equipment called Dick's Sporting Goods in the US has significantly reduced gun sales..... Is the dispute a discussion? As long as we discuss, we will collide. But that might be a fight that doesn’t use your hands. A discussion is a place to examine the problem from various angles and to criticize it so that there is no omission, in order to draw a conclusion that is acceptable to everyone. I don’t think it’s a stage where only personal opinions are passed on. Isn’t it possible to talk only to those who can keep the middle of the two extremes?

The Pendulum of the Puszta

And in the heart of Europe, where history never fully settles, even a step forward can feel like the beginning of a circle.… The trains still ran on time in Budapest. That was what Júlia noticed first—not the election results, not the speeches, not the sudden shift in tone from Brussels. Just the trains. Steel certainty, gliding past the cracked platforms of a country that had learned to distrust every promise. On the screens above the station, a headline looped: a new government, a new direction. After sixteen years, the era of Viktor Orbán had ended, replaced by Péter Magyar—a man who spoke of Europe not as an adversary, but as a home that Hungary had drifted too far from. People around her didn’t celebrate. They watched. Because they had seen this before—not this exact moment, but the pattern. At a café near the Danube, an old historian named Farkas explained it the way others might explain the weather. “Geography is des...

Preparations are necessary when inviting guests

Does public opinion about the terrorist attacks in the United States (2001) that started the Afghanistan war accept negotiations with terrorists? Junk is useless. The artist creates it. Junk is not just an object. The junk as information is also shared. That as a person is also alive. “I’m a guest!” 1 In the first place, is it morally consistent to invite the leader of an organization designated as a terrorist to a place called Camp David? 2 If your family then opposes inviting friends to the house, what will your friends feel like? 3 strange not sold artist creates working object display traditional reason I'm a guest! After graduating from school, he creates objects while working part-time and regularly rents a gallery for display. I knew a young man like that artist. Work for a long time, weld steel frame materials, rent the space to rent, decorate and publish the work. His work was not sold. So, from an ordinary person like me, artists a...

The Third Alliance

Or who, exactly, the enemy was.… The maps were wrong. They still showed NATO as a single, clean shape—thirty-two countries shaded in calm blue, as if unity were a geographic fact. But in the operations room beneath Brussels, the officers had stopped looking at maps months ago. They watched bandwidth. “Split traffic again,” said Colonel Ionescu, pointing at the wall of live feeds. “U.S. channels are throttling European command relays.” No one looked surprised. Since the Greenland crisis of 2025–2026, the alliance had begun to behave less like a bloc and more like a negotiation that never ended. The Americans called it “burden correction.” The Europeans called it something else, quietly, in their own languages. A technician pulled up Arctic satellite imagery—synthetic aperture radar overlays, the same systems once used to track Russian armor in Ukraine. Now they were watching each other. “Pituffik base expansion confirmed,” she said. “New runway segments. Inc...

Blame such an illusion, even if they assume that all civilians are treating their teeth every day because dentists treat patients’ teeth every day

The handle was heavier than I imagined..... “What? You have never treated your teeth in the last seven years! It’s unbelievable.” Rather, I couldn’t believe What are the conditions for a smooth conversation? document conversation shared context graffiti not Rather, I couldn’t believe the dentist’s terrible surprise. Of course, as long as the dentist is also a businessman, it should be presumed that his dismay includes some immature acting. But his surprise can be thought of as containing even certain truths. Because dentists treat patients’ teeth every day, no one can blame such an illusion, even if they assume that all civilians are treating their teeth every day. In any case, even I, who brushes my teeth every day like keeping a diary, visits the dental clinic when the need arises. However, the last time I visited was only 7 years ago. What are the conditions for a smooth conversation? It should be remembered that there are two main ...

The Price of Hunger

But they also needed to believe that their lives belonged to them.… In October 2026, Dr. Elena Ward stood before a wall of monitors in a behavioral research center in Geneva, watching the world eat. One screen showed cargo ships waiting outside the Strait of Hormuz. Another displayed grain prices, fertilizer costs, and global food reserves. A third tracked social media posts from countries experiencing rising food prices. On the largest screen, a map of the world glowed in shades of red and amber, indicating regions where households were spending an increasingly large share of their income on food. Elena was a behavioral economist. For fifteen years, she had studied why people obey, rebel, cooperate, and betray one another. Her conclusion had made her unpopular among philosophers, politicians, and religious scholars alike. Humanity’s greatest ideals, she believed, were often secondary to its most primitive need. Hunger. Not mere...
