What is the definition of material and post-material?
Material refers to things that are tangible, physical, and related to basic needs such as food, shelter, and safety. Post-material, on the other hand, refers to values and concerns that go beyond basic needs and focus on issues such as self-expression, quality of life, and environmental sustainability. Post-material values are often associated with higher levels of economic development and education, as people's basic needs are met and they can focus on more abstract and aspirational goals.

Which piercing material?
When choosing a piercing material, it is important to consider factors such as your skin sensitivity, the location of the piercing, and your budget. Surgical stainless steel is a popular choice for its durability and affordability, while titanium is a hypoallergenic option suitable for those with sensitive skin. For a more luxurious option, you may consider gold or platinum, but keep in mind that these materials can be more expensive. Ultimately, the best piercing material for you will depend on your individual preferences and needs.

Are thoughts material?
No, thoughts are not material in the traditional sense. They are not physical objects that can be touched or seen. Thoughts are the result of complex neural activity in the brain, and while they have a real impact on our emotions and behaviors, they do not have a physical substance. However, thoughts can have material consequences when they lead to actions or decisions that have tangible effects on the world.
