crazy that soy can be turned into both flavorless texture and textureless flavor. maybe we should try just keeping both?
As metaphysicists our task is to explain the most general feature of reality: what it means for something to be. Through centuries of studies, we realized that being always has two aspects. First, every existing object is limited and particularized by some particular properties: it has color, taste, or even subjective mental properties and propensities, like feeling salty. We call this aspect the ‘actuality’ or 'form’ of the object. Second, properties cannot exist free-floatingly, there must be something they apply to, and this we call the ’(prime) matter’. Matter per se has no properties (for example it is colorless and tasteless), but it is massive and filling. Only by combining the two do we get a full account of what it means for me to be (or as we say in Spanish, soy).
