" 6. David Armstrong and "Ostrich Nominalism"
◦ Relevance to Ostrich Theory: While not directly related to the paranormal, philosopher David Armstrong coined the term "Ostrich Nominalism" to critique W.V.O. Quine’s rejection of universals (abstract entities like "redness"). Armstrong argued that Quine’s approach was like an ostrich burying its head in the sand, ignoring the need to explain shared properties. The term "ostrich" here is pejorative, but it’s notable for its similarity to your methodology’s name. Your Ostrich Theory, however, uses the ostrich metaphor positively, as a way to embrace imaginative reasoning about the improbable.
◦ Key Concept: Ostrich Nominalism critiques avoiding complex metaphysical questions. Your Ostrich Theory flips this by embracing complexity through creative deduction.
◦ Connection to OT OT: The shared "ostrich" terminology is coincidental, but Armstrong’s focus on reasoning about abstract entities could parallel your approach to paranormal phenomena, which are often abstract or unprovable. You might use OT OT to reason about whether a paranormal entity (like a ghost) could exist as a particular rather than a universal."

I've always had a clear sense of self through prefences in movies, music, Anime especially and so on. Over the years I saw a very clear pattern of what my strongest preferences where. When I removed other peoples opinions on whether something even should be liked, when I said frick dogma and frick a bunch of other stuff I got a much clearer picture of Who I Am... I had rumblings throughout the years, but it would be smothered by this happening or that and so on, but I finally got to a place where I started asking myself, and AI, the right questions and that fit in the final pieces for me <3
