maybe there's also a little bit of- these things were trying to be countercultural but now they're just...cultural?

society clearly went in a certain direction so when south park is doing their 'both sides' thing and the joke is "look we're saying the slur!" It's just NOT countercultural. That's the direction we went.

I don't know. But like aqua teen hunger force, I should watch that. because they made good stuff back then, I'd like to spot the non-cringe.

I've never watched it but I did watch those other ones and we can all appreciate how much south park and family guy just sucked. It's like this is the kind of shit you cared about? I'm from the future and trust me you'll get over it matt, trey and seth

one time there was a bat in the house. Later discovered them living in the soffits. Dad sent me up there to bang on it. One by one, 40 bats zoomed out in front of my face while I stood on the edge of the roof swinging a broom

this is correct

ok but that is the illusion. Remember you are only ever thinking your concepts of reality, not reality. So in some divine and super mystical way you are no more your thoughts than the table is your concept of the table. what happens to a table when you die?

It's a reasonable question but it's very different. First killing yourself doesn't remove you from the cycle of birth and suffering. Second the concept of non-self isn't like death. You already are a non-self, anatma. You have no permanent soul and there is no fixed essence to anything. Dying isn't ending anything.

So instead of a soul being the religion's continuity it's the cycle of birth of death.

And the concept of emptiness is more divine and less nihilistic than it sounds. Our experience of the world isn't our experience of the things in themselves but of our concepts of those things. So our awareness of true reality remains false even though we live in it.

So think about what you're doing when you're meditating, how you're perceiving things, stimuli and emotions without reacting to them, categorizing, or judging them. That is one notion of "emptiness" and you can see it's very different from being dead.

oh is that something vegans are doing? Demanding to colonize people to stop them eating meat? 63 upbears

Neither. Jackie Brown.

my friend and beloved comrade, you should go out and spook yourself. There's lots of great horror but my brain can't completely neutralize the media it's in. So "horror" becomes less and less a feeling and more chasing a genre.

Is that a word, genre-fication?

I went exploring a house under construction in the middle of the night and it gave me the correct feeling. Horror is a very psychological thing and I love it but it's also hard to fool your own psychology, By rights a brand new house should never be haunted but the nature of the bare walls, the empty unlived way it echoes, it gave me that spooky feeling of not-being-able-to-put-my-finger-on-it which you literally can't fake.

there's an extremely high quotient of drama on this site. Name the damn thing whatever you want. Or don't.

Just be sure to fight about for a week

lol fuck you too then :)

Drama and cliqueishness. Self indulgent week long struggle sessions instead of this is the way it from now on. k thnx byebye

US military recruiters are allowed to schedule meetings with children without their parents awareness or presence. Recruiters are giant pieces of shit. But I guess it's ok to be a giant piece of shit if you're doing it for the armed services.

If I ever meet a recruiter, I'm going to call them a giant piece of shit to their face and feel great knowing it's objectively the truth

Biking is more efficient than walking because of the mechanical advantage of pedaling, right? But it can't possibly hold true for any incline can it? Like no matter what, you are always moving more weight than on foot. So then would the efficiency factor have everything to do with incline?

I know personally biking up steep hill usually feels harder than walking up it.

And what about a bike shop during the Wright brother's time? There could not have been enough people who knew how to ride a bike to sustain a business could there?

oh don't worry mr non officer, I will sell u one mr ketamine syringe at my address of 99 crime boulevard of broken dreams where I manufacture all the antifa

If you're into this music you should try taking ketamine and listening to this or this

If you didn't plan ahead, lay it on a tray as flat as you can and stick it in the freezer. Pull it out before it freezes, shuffle it around and stick it back in. Repeat until it's not tacky.

Get as much out of it as you can. Not every one is able to believe in ghost :/

this would be a great way to kill the site.
