Like hiking, but in other people's buildings. Most urban adventures take place in derelict buildings, but also includes any location you can access without forcing entry.
Remember a joint and a camera to celebrate reaching the summit of your local really tall building.
Probably started by students living in halls in really big old universities who liked to explore all the tunnels and hatchs. Has even been featured on shows like Buffy and X-Files, firmly locating it in the "not cool, but fun" section of modern culture.

When urban exploring you should carry ID and consider if you have any suspicious articles on you, even a penknife can constitute a weapon if you manage to really make a dick out of yourself.

Get the Butthole Exploration Day mug.The philosophical and scientific framework for understanding why humanity explores space, how exploration should be conducted, and what exploration means for our species. Space Exploration Theory addresses questions of motivation (curiosity, survival, resources, destiny), method (robotic vs. human, government vs. commercial), and meaning (what does exploration do to us as a species?). It draws on history of exploration on Earth, ethics of encountering new worlds, and practical considerations of deep-space operations. Space Exploration Theory isn't about engineering—it's about the human dimensions of leaving Earth: why we go, how we should go, and what we become when we go.
Space Exploration Theory "We can go to Mars, but should we? That's Space Exploration Theory—not the engineering, but the ethics, the motivation, the meaning. Exploration without theory is just tourism; theory without exploration is just philosophy. Both need each other, or we're either wandering without purpose or thinking without acting."

Get the Space Exploration Theory mug.An ability-gated exploration platformer (AGEP) is a genre term for a video game that is heavily based around exploration and non-linearity, with certain areas generally inaccessible without upgrades or new unlockable abilities.
The game space is often open-world or semi-open, and involves encountering obstacles that the player cannot usually overcome without later backtracking. This is the generic term for the genre more popularly known as "Metroidvania" or "Zeldavania."

I'm working on a new game. It's an ability-gated exploration platformer inspired by Dead Cells and Guacamelee!

Get the Ability-Gated Exploration Platformer mug.The mind-bending pursuit of understanding and potentially interacting with realities beyond our familiar 3D space + 1D time. In physics, it probes string theory's 11 dimensions. In data science, it means visualizing hyper-dimensional datasets. In consciousness studies, it's the idea that altered states or psychedelics might let us perceive more "dimensions" of existence. It’s the ultimate frontier, asking: what if our universe is just a slice of a much richer, weirder, multidimensional whole that we're biologically unequipped to perceive?
*Example: "The physicist talked about N-dimensional exploration in Calabi-Yau manifolds, the AI researcher used it to cluster data in 256D space, and the guy on DMT swore he visited them all. Same term, wildly different trips."*

Get the explanation is joke murder mug.Capitalist exploitation simply means the fact that after its commodification the price of your work force on the market is much lower than the value it produces.
Think about it this way: worker X in company Y is producing commodity Z (goods&services). But a wage's worth of commodity Z is created by worker X in only a few hours of labour. The value his work force is rented for by the capitalist is much smaller than the value it creates. The private person owning company Y (don't forget corporations are also legal private subjects) then
appropriates the surplus value created by the labourer.
Simply put: if a labourer creates the value of his wage in a very small amount of his labouring time, who then, is he in fact labouring for most of the time?
Not only does capitalist exploitation entail that most of the value that working people create will be appropriated from them, but also that their limited precious time on this planet will be appropriated from them.

Mark sold 100 fast food meals priced at $5 in 8 hours. In two days the total value he creates is $1000. Yet he has to work for a full month to receive a salary, a wage of $800. Because Mark in unaware of capitalist exploitation he believes he is reverencing a fair pay for his work when in fact he is labouring extensively for the profit of other people.
