There are too many fscking proteins and I won’t put up with it anymore!
- Comment on In this day and age is it possible to create a commune? With majority of vegetables coming from one acre and all put in to get wifi to our subdivision? So the bill is not that high? 1 day ago:
If you really want help, you almost need to dox yourself by giving pretty specific location info. So please don’t do that.
Land matters are very complex in any country. In the USA, laws around land use can vary from one block to another. 50 states and many matters are delegated from each state to their counties for implementation.
My point is, yes, you may be able to arrange such a community.
It can be a tricky legal, political and social affair that is very specific to your exact site.
So plan on a huge learning curve and learning how to find the right kind of legal and organizational advice.

That’s a pretty good source to understand the zeitgeist of the whole railroad boom. It’s fictionalized but pretty truthy.

The film was better than the old MTV series it was based on. They built a compelling world in the animated version, but the film delivered on that vision.

Awesomism sounds great, but my calender is already full with Funinism events. Maybe a joint event between the groups at the park, a little after 4pm?

In cybersecurity, this is called red-hat or red-team work. Maybe the search terms will help you find what you need.

Awesome resource, thank you for posting it.
Here’s one reason why a hip level perspective would be so helpful as a neuroscience tool. It is an ethical and reversible experimental intervention that could add real experimental power to functional brain-body mapping.
Combine the perspective shift induced by the virtual rearrangement of sensory input with fNIRS for cortical imaging, perhaps before, during and after the hip-view experience. A company focused on near infrared cortical imaging products
I am certain a proper neuroscientist could come up with even better and more detailed questions to ask using the method.
Something like this could even be used as a therapy tool for trauma, perhaps, once the impact of the perspective shifts were understood well. A common trauma response is dissociation and common therapy methods include ways to help people reconnect with their whole bodies again.

The body is the mind. Change your body, change your mind.
Just saying, polymorph spells are problematic.

So now I actually think this idea is on to something brilliant. I have been diving into neuroscience lately and this sounds like an amazing experimental method.
It’s like non-surgically transplanting your eyes into your hips. Why do that? To further refine brain-body mapping.
We turn our head instinctively to aid vision. Once our brain realizes that visual input improves only when we move our hips, body awareness will shift significantly.

The hips do not lie. Ipso facto, you would be seeing ultimate truth.
It turns out that the meaning of life is at crotch level.
- Comment on On trees... 3 weeks ago:
Yes, but I think OP’s point is those 5-6 crab-events all came from a narrow taxonomic group. All plant families have some trees. Only one sub-group of animals contains crabs.
It is as if all trees only came from members of the lily family.

If a person can moderate, I would call it a bad habit and not an addiction. To me, the inability to moderate is what makes it an addiction in the first place.

It’s very nice to find someone else who is deeply concerned about the problem of recursive homunculi.
Why is no one else talking about this? Can’t they see the danger we are all in?

I knew one of those homeless people that somewhat chose that life in Seattle. His name was Terry. We saw him frequently and would invite him to gatherings. Always a perfect gentleman.
He went through kind of a nasty divorce in his 40s and then about when he turned 50, his work van got stolen, which contained all of the tools of his livelihood. He told us that he decided he just wouldn’t play the game anymore. It was sort of a conscious renunciation as his only defense against total despair. This man was so sane it breaks my heart to remember him.
He had no people. A few years later we received a call from the county coroner, my girlfriends phone number was the only contact info he had on him, he still had the paper she had written it on for him. He had died on a rail embankment he walked to get to his encampment.
Terry always kept it real.

Don’t think of this as weird, it’s a huge flex. May I also point out that she has people on her team? This is not a one-person hairdo.
