People are awesome and exhausting at the same time. Socializing is like exercising. If I don’t do it I feel horrible. If I do it too much without a break I feel horrible. If I do it just enough, then stop doing it and rest, it’s nice. Moderation.

Fuck no. I am poor as fuck, I can’t tip bobody for nothing. Frozen pizza is the lazy meal for me. Because it’s 8 dollars not 80.

Sitting in a car, flying out the window as I realize I am dreaming and become Lucid.

So, not advertising is the best advertisement for intelligent consumers?

Why would north and south Korea try to reunite?

Why

If Taiwan were China why do mainland Chinese need a passport to go there?

It’s like saying north and south Korea are the same country because, historically, they used to be the same country.

They’re not the same country.

For me it’s become the opposite. I open reddit /all and see twenty adds for joining the US Army, US navy, I see a few posts with 9k comments. I feel bored. I close it and look on lemme and there’s always at least as much if not more content, and the sheer mass of it isn’t overwhelming to me at all. People are stupid on both platforms, but for me this one has become a less stressful alternative.

The advertising on reddit is quickly getting out of hand.

Can I go ahead and finish the house of cards yet?

Having opinions is capitalism how? Marx had strong opinions. Was it the product capitalism?

Your opinions are peak capitalism.

I’m technically Stoopid with computer stuff. I teach elementary school.

Kurt Vonnegut. Met him at a Brooklyn farmers market, sitting on a bench. He seemed lonely and talked to me for so long I had to excuse myself.

Sure. It’s just, communism is not an answer. It’s human nature that fucks up these systems. We need to address human nature

Meditation, study, gardening, self improvement are paid jobs. We’ve given freedom to those who are able to use it in a responsible manner. Hard labor is a 4 to 5 hour gig that we take turns doing, not because we are forced to, but because we understand the necessity and value of the work. Work is not seen as something we must do to have a house and food, but it is seen as participating in our society.

Compassion, tolerance, and freedom are primal virtues.

Personally I love work, I love the feeling of charity, I love learning how to better myself.

I’m old now, I don’t even drink beer anymore. I don’t go somewhere unless I already know someone there. My adventure days are behind me, hopefully. Thanks tho.

I love swimming because of the rhythm, the breathing, the form and it feels like flying. It’s also very quiet. Like the noise of the world goes away first. And eventually, when I find my rhythm, my brain stops it’s busyness. People tell me this about running, but running just hurts my knees a bit.

A. Riding a freight train from Midwest to California. 3 day trip, very crazy.

B. Taking a motorcycle trip to a small tribal village in Thailand, smoking bong rips with a Buddhist monk, slaughtering a pig and eating it raw, drinking homemade rice hootch until blacking out. Hiking around drunkenly accidentally ending up in Burma, running away from the Burmese military. Them chasing me until I got back to the village.

C. Getting bitten by a unknown spider in Nicaragua, swollen, blistering boil, feverish, infection. Taking a bus to san salvador, then quezaltenango Guatemala, doctor cutting a blister open and pushing out the puss, excruciating pain. Then after days of it not healing, going to a local hotspring, dunking my arm in steaming hot lithium water, and basically watching the infection fall out in one massive puss ball leaving a gaping hole in my arm.

Have you ever tried swimming? No sweat, no loudness, great cardio.

Does swimming, yoga, biking and gardening count as exercise, or are we strictly taking about big muscle workout?
