Introducing Myself - A Philosophical Blogger

in introduceyourself •  7 years ago  (edited)

Hey everyone,

My name is Luke, I heard about this platform from my sister @coruscate, and promptly decided to check it out. The format seems fascinating; so I decided to bring my content here. I run a blog, Thinking LBT, and the goal of it to encourage people to think more about the bigger questions in life. I often do this through thought experiments, short stories, and discussions.

Learning about Steemit from my sister @coruscate!

A Little About Me



I was born in the US to Canadian immigrants, and have lived in 6 states and BC - so if you every want a North American tour guide ;) I learned a lot of perspective in my childhood travels and my intense curiosity carries forward to this day. I love trying to understand why things are the way they are, and how they might be better. Hence why I studied Political Science, Economics, and Communication in university.

My favorite things in the world to do are to think and discuss with people - that's why I started my blog. When my sister @coruscate told me about the Steemit platform, I immediately knew this was the place for me.

Celebrating @maryjaney's 21st birthday

What to Expect


I'll be posting on a variety of thought provoking subjects. From what I've observed by browsing through this platform, deep and philosophical discussions are celebrated. So please don't hesitate to chime in with your thoughts and opinions.

I am so excited to be part of the Steemit platform and I look forward to meeting and getting to know you all!

Welcome to Steemit!!

Thank you! I think I'm going to like it.

Welcome to the STEEM-Universe ;) Glad your sister got you here, I can help out with a little resteem for more attention! Greets, @theaustrianguy

Aww thank you for voting and highlighting my brother!! (I know you did the same for my sis @maryjaney too). I just wanted to say thanks for supporting them and for everything you do to encourage new users. 😊

Thank you! I really appreciate that. You helped out my sisters? Thank you for that as well. I think I'm quickly becoming a fan of yours lol.

Welcome @thinkinglbt! I'm a newbie too and have been so inspired by @coruscate's posts! She mentioned you're named after Luke Skywalker? That's so awesome... I played Beru in Star Wars eps 2 and 3 so I guess I raised you?! Well I'm looking forward to following your blog!

That’s really cool!! Happy to meet you.
So I guess you could pull a “Luke, I am your mother” line lol. If I’m in need of parental advice, I’ll know where to come 😉

Haha exactly!

Welcome to Steemit, I think you'll do really great here, especially if you get out and interact with others and leave good comments.

By the way, you should let us know what the LBT means in your name.

They are my initials, yes. Though I like leaving that part a little vauge because LBT could stand for or be close to other meanings. For example a lettuce, bacon, and tomato sandwich. The idea is that it gets people thinking about what the letters stand for, and people thinking more is my whole point.

Welcome to steemit, Hopefully your posts are interesting like @coruscate posts.

Thank you! We shall see indeed.

Welcome, brother of @coruscate nice to see you in steemit family enjoy the platform and have fun. God bless

Thank you so much! God bless to you as well.

Your welcome, and thanks.

I blog, therefore I am....

Haha, I like that.

I appreciate your love for discussing and thinking about essential questions - a lot! I feel like many people closed up and became very dogmatic and rigid, which causes inner shrinking and conflict. I'm looking forward to reading more from you!

Thank you so much! That is something that concerns me as well, that’s part of why I decided to do something more than just wish for things to get better.

Hey, man! Welcome to the Steemit platform and family!

If your sister is any indication at all, we can look forward to lots of quality content. I'm looking forward to it. Here's a little upvote and resteem to get you started :).

Thanks for the upvote and resteem! I've got a mind that runs at a million miles an hour, so there should be plenty to chew on.

Welcome @thinkinglbt. Nice having you, wish you a great time in the steem world

I appreciate that, thank you.

Welcome to steemit🤗. I was curious to the abreviation in your title. Your sister puts out great posts. I'm looking forward to seeing yours too. Thank you for coming to steemit.

Thank you so much. Ya my sister is kinda awesome lol.
They are my initials. Though that kind of curiosity is exactly why I did it that way.

So smart and cute😉🤗❤️👍💪👏

Welcome to Steemit @thinkinglbt.
May the force be with you!

Ah I see, the force is strong with this one.

Sooo excited to have you on here!! I know you are going to love it!

Thank you so much Lea! You are an amazing sister! I'm already liking it.

Welcome @thinkinglbt. I'm looking forward to seeing some of your work. I'd like to share a little something with you, to perhaps think about and or respond to. In philosophy and theory, anything is possible as long as you don't identify something as truth.

The way I see it would be a mirror image of that. The purpose is to discover truth, and taking something as a given can lead to faulty assumptions - best to ask the why of everything.

Welcome aboard :) I'm looking forward to read your posts.

Thank you! I'm looking forward to posting them.
