No one is “normal” it doesn’t exist. It’s one big social hallucination. Look inside yourself and trust who you are. That is the most attractive thing I can think of. You are good.

Woops, you are right the case was 2010, Citizens United was founded in 1988.

Of course this is death by a thousand cuts. For me a lot of blame goes to the Reagan administration. They really set up the next 40 yrs plus with trickle down economics. It really hammered home that government is for profit of corporations, not a non-profit service for the people. Citizens United vs FEC (1988) also opened the flood gates to money in politics with no recourse by the public. It’s been a downhill from there in my opinion.

As an American living in Seattle area. Please invade Washington, so we can succeed it to you and join your fight. The new way of doing things here is to lie things into existence so we have a good shot at a non violent succession. All we have to say is Vancouver North and South are actually part of the same territory and use a sharpie to circle them on a map. Worth a shot at least. Assuming you would have us that is, please take us!

What Linux or android ui can actually utilize a dual screen? Or is it just for DS emulation?

It’s jeSUS not jesure.

You are perpetually stuck at a 4 way stop sign and no one will go, as everyone is waving everyone else to go first.

Not super weird but I usually get looks from others when I bust out a tub of cottage cheese as a dip for my chips. Spruced up version; Cottage cheese, chopped pickles, (Cholula chili garlic)hot sauce and a small dap of sesame oil is like the perfect ruffles dip.

Pretty much this https://youtu.be/6_KS2nEkjM0

Although not very impactful yet, it think aerographene has the potential to be massive.

Gods are literally just a psychological comfort blanket to explain the unexplainable. Most religious people don’t put that much thought into what they believe, challenging concepts are just tucked nicely away in the “Gods will” box and they move on. I think everyone copes with those brain shattering concepts in their own creative way or risk getting buried alive in anxiety.

I second the dust. Dust can collect on the sensor and trigger the alarm. You can try vacuuming or using a compressed air cleaner, or just replace.

Tarsem Singhs “The Fall”

It is still to this day the most powerful piece of art I’ve seen. I wish I could recreate that experience. I still remember thinking, at about a quarter of the movie through, that this was the best movie I’ve ever seen, and it got better and better. The theater was packed, everyone there was completely drawn into the movie and you could feel the room sharing emotions, it was powerful enough, here almost 20 years later, I can still feel that connection.

I will sling some BS for the sport of it. All things in existence are subject and coexist in the same spectrum of frequencies. Our soul is the center band (radio station of sorts) of our collective aura which each individual feels as I. Imagine the Sun as the Major harmonic frequency, Jupiter as the next biggest harmonic stabilizer, earth, the moon, our region, our city, etc. etc. Our minds are a powerful radiator of frequency, the more minds tuned in to the same overtones of society, the more we influence each other and drown out the outlier spikes and chaotic frequency disruptions. When awake, we are more subject to external stimuli, or project our own emotional frequency (like stress) which can lead us to losing the synchronicity. When asleep or trained to enter the proper mental state, we can fall deeply into the rhythm of our subconscious and loose ourselves to the collective and free ourselves of our Makyo (the earthly distractions keeping us from fully submersing our conscious into the noosphere.

In the Pacific Northwest I’ve had visitors get really excited to see slugs.

Quokkas win as far as cutest and chillest animals to bless this planet. Quokkas should be everyone’s spirit animal.

Not sure if this is what you were looking for, but this song is a masterpiece of horror manifest through audio. In fact the whole album is a piece of art, troubling and dark but so well crafted.

Can you help me find my puppy, I think it went into this cheap hotel room?

I think there is a big piece missing if we want to make lasting change. Protests should be the first part and we have missed many opportunities by skipping the second part. Challenging the legality of the issues in court. The MLK jr. movements were so powerful because they changed the laws. In many cases they “got arrested” on purpose and then challenged the legality of the issues in court with some amazing well armed lawyering. The protests, though important, should only be to stir up public opinion and momentum, followed by a timely well thought out and public challenge to the laws we wish to change. That’s where to orgs should be focusing their energy to capitalize on these fleeting moments.

Didn’t get good before pics.
