Complicated to answer properly but I think that on the whole religion offers a good package. There's so much variety though and of course not everyone who identifies as religious is sincere; all institutions are attractive for those looking to exploit their influence, whether it's a religion, government, business etc.
I'm interested in the social, moral, philosophical and spiritual aspects of religion but I'm also a bit allergic to institutions and am not humble enough to fit into the sorts of hierarchies that most religions seem to insist on.
I have no problem with that - on Pixelfed I can choose what to see. I agree though it would be a cool bonus to have a fourth option to see all Pixelfed posts.
Most posts on my instance's local feed right now are from new accounts and 99% of them are photography and art. I saw one guy doing a typical poser selfie and just blocked him. It's looking good.
I encourage people to report any spam that does get posted though. Need to keep Pixelfed nice.
I can't remember it's name but I stumbled across a good instance with lots of musicians doing live performances in their studios/rooms. If anyone knows where to find it again please reply here!
Here in the UK a massive grow was discovered in a former Ministry of Defence nuclear bunker. It was so secure that the police couldn't get in to bust them and had to wait outside until they ran out of food.
As others have said, using a flat bed scanner will save some work. If you need to photograph it though:
Use paper with grid lines as background (not sure the name, used to use it in maths at school). This will give you not just an index for scale but also for 'squareness'.
Position camera perpendicular to subject
Use a telephoto or zoom lens from a distance rather than wide angle from close up to minimise lens distortion.
Import image into GIMP or photoshop and use rulers, guides and transform tools to scale the image correctly and make it perfectly square.
Matching the colour perfectly is more complicated and I won't go into that here.
Let me know if you need any more tips. I photograph a lot of artwork and documents.
Yea, that's what I mean. I call rubbish anything that gets thrown away though, so for me a banana skin is still rubbish but it is not bad in the same way as a plastic bottle. I probably wasn't clear enough in my downvoted first comment. But I am sick, so forgive me.
You should definitely ask a qualified expert. I would think swimming might be a good option though. As well as being good exercise it can also be really pleasant and relaxing to just float and play in the water.
I don't think that dropping rubbish is necessarily that bad. The problem comes when it persists in the environment for hundreds of years because it's not biodegradable.
Buy a bicycle that makes you want to ride it. If you get to the point where you no longer want to ride it, trade it in for another one that you do.
I can't overstate how important it is take care of your mental and physical health. In fact, I would say that this is far more important than buying a house. Your mind and body are your primary home.
Just remember that the people getting mad at you are not deleting any of their posts.
