  Looks interesting, though I feel like the ground being this indestructible plane takes away from it. I’d want to be able to ground stomp craters, create earthquakes, have some sort of ground physics there.

  Reminds me of Katamari.

  That’s not true at all. If I had the means to do so, I would be donating more, though I’m living pretty precariously myself.

  The lumps in the sand are where they bury the bodies

  I am sure there is someone else out there who also does this. You’re looking for validation.

  If you have the finances, then it’s not a huge issue. If you don’t, then you may want to try and not do this. 🤷🏻‍♂️

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is "attention", really?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Attention is where you place focus on something. This is done through both the action of looking and the action of taking that information in and comprehending what you’re looking at. Attention can be applied to other senses too, such as listening, feeling, etc.

  It’s also another word for alertness.

  I would say that it’s a bumper sticker to show that the person driving is fun-loving and country-loving.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How did Peter Piper pick pickled peppers?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  They aren’t being picked from the plant, the peck of pickled peppers Peter picks are from an entrée of already pickled peppers.

  The shells she sells are sea shells for sure.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Where are you? Can you move?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  You can also imagine a movable centre.

  Let it sway slowly before your forehead and circle your head from time to time, and you will sense the psychology of a bewildered person.

  Let it circle irregularly around your whole body, in varying tempos, now going up and now sinking down, and the effect will no doubt be one of intoxication.

  (Johnstone, 1987, p. 180).

  There’s a book called Impro by Keith Johnstone.

  It’s a book about improvisation, though in there there’s a very interesting part on moving your center around when it comes to character work.

  So long as the centre remains in the middle of your chest (pretend it’s a few inches deep), you will feel that you are still yourself and in full command, only more energetically and harmoniously so, with your body approaching an “ideal type”.

  As soon as you try to shift the centre to some other place within or outside your body, you will feel that your whole psychological and physical attitude will change, just as it changes when you step into an imaginary body.

  You will notice that the centre is able to draw and concentrate your whole being into one spot from which your activity emanates and radiates.

  (Johnstone, 1987, p. 179).
