Same great Dharma, new SolarPunk packaging!

Check out DharmaCurious.neocities.org for ramblings on philosophy and the occasional creative writing project!

  • What are the pics from? They look familiar but I can't place it

  • Lmao. We all do it eventually!

  • I believe they were making a joke about sugar free corn

  • I'm not sure if "Dharms" was a typo or a nickname, but that's the first time I've gotten that, and I genuinely like it. Like, what a great nickname. Love it.

  • Said it before and I'll say it again: just because you understand the magic doesn't make it any less magical. A wizard may know the ins and outs of their spells, but they're still spells. Our entire universal is fucking magical, we just happen to have a decent understanding of why (some) of it functions the way it does. Jiggle a quark here and another may jiggle the same way somewhere in the vicinity of Betelgeuse, that's fucking wild and magical and incredible, and just because we have some level of understanding behind the mechanics doesn't make it not magic. It just makes it a hard magic system.

  • Silicon chips

  • We mostly laughed about it after I explained what I was doing

  • Had an ingrown hair on my taint. Mom walked in to find me standing on the bathroom counter, balls pulled up, leaned back against the wall behind me, and squeezing it. She thought I was fingering my ass lmao

  • On the day it's released, you begin with S1E1 and binge that, pacing it out somewhat so that you end your binging marathon caught up to the most recent season, with 2 episodes left to air. You only have the horrible week long wait between episodes for the final two episodes of the season, but you've acclimated your body to waiting on trek, and thus the withdrawals during the off season aren't as severe.

  • God I love them

  • Guinan?

  • Some of them want to use you

  • When an instance like lemm.ee shuts down, what happens to the posts and comments?

  • I am in no way techy, but from what I gather because the posts are federated they are also stored on the other instances as well, so posts are still visible. In the post announcing the shuttering of .ee they specifically mentioned adding a note on your profile to link to your new profile, so people can find your new profile after that shut down. That implies to me that everything not intentionally scrubbed remains open/visible long after the shut down of the original source.

    Again, though, not techy, so I may be vocalizing from my posterior

  • I don't have a strong opinion one way or the other. But I do have a fun story!

    When my mom was pregnant with my older brother, they had a phone repair guy at the house. She was going through a book of baby names and trying to pick one, while her husband was yelling from the other room that his name would be the same as his (we'll go with John for the example and privacy).

    Husband: (yelling) his name will be John, same as me!

    Mama: no! I will not do that! He'd be a junior, I'm not naming my son Junior like some redneck!

    Husband: it's not a redneck name! You don't have to call him junior, call him john!

    Mama: no, it's trashy! It's a white trash name and I'm not doing it! I want him to be able to read, not learn how to make moonshine out of an old radiator!*

    *That one's an actual direct quote

    Phone repair guy: turns around I need something from the truck.

    Mama looks up and notices his name tag. Junior.

    Dude left, got in his truck, and drove away. Sent someone else out the next day to fix the phone

  • Someone exploded a beached whale and then you drive home in the rain

  • Well... Not entirely true. It was a comment not dissimilar to the one at the top of this thread that made me realize we shouldn't be keeping cats outdoors. We had always had the indoor/outdoor cat and never really thought anything about it. After that comment and doing a little research all of our cats became indoor cats from then on.

  • I think it's just poorly written pseudo-legalese, and it's intended to mean that he will be unable to enjoy life in the future because of the psychological damage that poor is doing to him (unrealistic expectations and mental harm, et cetera).

    While porn addiction and unrealistic ideas of beauty and sex are genuinely real things that happen, the way to prevent that is with frank, open discussions about sex and pornography, not trying to prevent your 14 year old from masturbating. I was a 14 year old boy at one point, and lemme tell you, nothing could stop me from masturbating. Nothing. It's just not going to happen. Kids will find ways to find porn, and if somehow we completely do away with it entirely (again, won't happen), they'll find new ways, and they'll read and write erotica or get into hentai or whatever. This woman is insane, Kansas is insane, and so are all the other states imposing this bullshit

  • Ask me this a couple months ago and I'd have opted for freezing me, no question. But I lost my person, and I've realized it's not that I was afraid to die or that I wanted life to go on forever. I wanted the life I had to go on forever. That's gone now. I'll opt for the end date on the tin.
