Shelves in 100
100 Philosophy
The main shelf for philosophical posts, lessons, and general reflection.
Metaphysics
Being, reality, causation, time, identity, possible worlds, and other basement machinery.
Epistemology
Knowledge, belief, doubt, evidence, skepticism, and how anyone knows anything.
Ethics
Goodness, obligation, virtue, harm, responsibility, and moral decision-making.
Logic
Arguments, fallacies, inference, contradiction, proofs, and formal reasoning.
Aesthetics
Beauty, taste, art, style, interpretation, vibes, and why the thing works.
Psychology
Mind, behavior, memory, habit, motivation, perception, and strange little internal weather systems.
Consciousness
Experience, selfhood, awareness, attention, qualia, and the troublesome lantern inside the skull.
Thought Experiments
Trolleys, brains in vats, rooms full of symbols, ships with replacement planks.
Philosophy of Religion
God, belief, revelation, reason, miracles, evil, and theological argument.
Philosophy of Language
Meaning, reference, naming, metaphor, definitions, and lexical mischief.
Philosophy of Technology
Tools, machines, software, AI, automation, and the way systems shape thought.
Use this class when the post is mainly about ideas, arguments, minds, interpretation, value, meaning, or the architecture of belief.
Suggested Lesson Types

Break claims into premises, objections, replies, and conclusions.

Notes on philosophers, essays, sacred texts, source excerpts, and theory pages.
Interactive Exercises
Tap-to-build, flashcards, quiz blocks, and short checks for philosophical vocabulary.
Essays
Longer arguments, reflections, commentary, and Institute-grade disputation.
Example 100 Lesson Embed
A philosophy lesson can combine a short explanation with an interactive vocabulary block. This example uses the tap-to-build format.
Paste an exercise block into a post when you want the lesson to feel more like a small classroom activity.
