I agree. It was the most peaceful feeling to be surrounded by thousands and thousands of people standing up, being friendly and supporting each other. I could do that every weekend.
I fought all of that for years. I stayed with her thinking it would get better, or that it would good for the kids to have stability. Only you can't have one person really working and the other not or, in my case, trying to completely dismantle your support network. Sometimes love just can't fix it.
A man's soul can change. We are all imperfect vessels. Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.
It is what it is. Do 330 million people live in your country?
Darwin was right
Covid kills no more or less than the flu, and effects the same populations. If ppl still think this is about Covid, I do have a bridge for sale at a decent price.
What are you talking about? Even Fauci in the beginning was saying don't wear masks. He made a big show about how people are always "fiddling" with them. Either he lied, or he was wrong. Which was it? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_2MmX2U2V3c
I don't know, I still think bell bottoms are pretty cool just as long as they aren't so big you can camp under them.
I think we need to go one stop further. Everyone should have to wear a helmet while riding in a vehicle. It'll probably save lives, right?
I was at a local hardware store awhile back and a guy had on something similar. I got a good laugh out of it.
This ^^^^
Around here, I've barely worn a mask since it started. I coach at a high school in the fall...outside, no mask except for competitions...Lowes, Aldi, local DG and convenience stores, no mask. At first it was no mask = stern looks. Now? No mask, no problem. I also live near Mennonite country and do the majority of my shopping in these places. Even last March and April I saw almost no masks. I wonder why we aren't hearing about massive spikes of Covid in their communities?
I was worried about what could happen to supply lines with Covid, so I sheet mulched with cardboard or newspaper, and hay, some leaves my entire 1600 sq ft backyard. I went right on top of the grass. I put in a couple of IBCs to gather rainwater. After a month, I started planting it. It was awesome. No weeds and I could garden in my bare feet. I canned about 160 quarts of feed, had fresh veggies all summer, and lots of dried peppers and maybe 50 lbs of potatoes.
I was also able to built 10 x 10 greenhouse on my patio and build a cob rocket mass heater inside of it. It was a lot of fun for not much money. I was even able to use old shower doors for $10 apiece for the greenhouse glass.
Something like a Raspberry Pi.
Get a Kodi Player and download Exodus and run it through a VPN. Anything you want right there.
I will watch the odd episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm or maybe a documentary, but I haven't watched TV in years. The real world is too interesting...podcasts, lectures, history, gardening....
Good point. It's especially effective using critical theory.
It's because the GOP is controlled opposition. They are supposed to rope-a-dope and do vanilla legislation with disgusting shit buried in the bills which no one reads. The Dems can push the agenda because they have an army of smooth-brained, one-dimensional thinkers who couldn't beat a novice checkers opponent that will back their every regressive move.
Not yet. Look how draconian the lockdowns have been in those places. Middle America? Not so much.
The Geneva Convention?
This is the way
I agree with you in principle, but I don't think there are atheists in fact. What I mean is, I don't think you can remove the God-head. For Marxists, it is the state or a cult of personality. I think humans always will have something as the apotheosis. Whether that apotheosis is "real" or not, I guess would depend on what you mean by "real." I'm not being contentious, I just think it's complicated.
My point is only that some folks just don't have the mental fortitude to handle high amounts of THC consistently. Overuse in certain people can certainly trigger laden psychological issues.
I've had some dynamite experiences on edibles. 200mg is close to perfect for me. One of the best experiences I ever had was riding around Lefthand Canyon in Boulder, just hiking trails chilling out by the streams. A red letter day. A few days later I took, shall we say a heftier dose, and got pinned down in a hail storm at a Dead & Co show in Boulder. That was the only 'no bueno' experience I ever had.
I'm not saying you're wrong. Not at all. It's just so nihilistic yet realistic (I suppose both terms apply). Where is the way out then?
