...saying it doesn't cost $60000 to bury a 'fucking Mexican', or making multiple political spectacles at Arlington National Cemetery, or praising North Korea, or locker room talk, or...

Indiana has remarkable nature, especially in the central and southern state. Not too far from you is Shades SP, I would strongly recommend you check out the Turkey Backbone. It's terrifying but amazing. The flora of that region is a remnant of pre-glacial flooding Indiana, and one can find stands of uncommon conifers there like Tsuga canadensis (Eastern hemlock), and some Populus deltoides (cottonwood) specimens that get over 120 ft tall.

That said, Indiana is a terribly, intractibly backwards state with a rotten culture of meathead "conservatism", Amish fetishism and drug use. My city is rather progressive compared to many neighboring (my old town used to be the Klan capital of the world, and the dragon whatever still lives there), but even with that the quantity of red hats is eyebrow-raising. I'm afraid Indiana will never get out of this hole. It truly is the "south of the north", as they call it.

I'm pretty sure it is grammatically correct with no comma. The version you provided is a comma splice.

To slightly change the tense, All the good faith that I had had no effect is grammatically correct with no comma, so the gerund form should also not need a comma.

Terre Haute sounds great! I live up by Elkhart, and while we have way too much farmland, I can't deny how great our forests are up here. We have bogs, too, which are just magical ecosystems.

Come to northern Indiana

I'll compound this with also learning what sleep schedule works best for you. Some people require 10 hours, others 6. Some people do very well with polyphasic sleep, others just need one uninterrupted bout at night.

I usually sleep about 5.5 hours at night and I take a midday 20 minute nap, and I always feel very strong, energetic, lively. If I sleep 7+ hours at night I'm super groggy and have inflammation the next day.

There is a big difference between recoding "I am unable to do this currently because I am tied up with other work, ask me in a few hours" to "Daddy's busy right now sweetie, maybe later?"

and

"Aww whosa sweet wittuh one! My wittle girlie so preshusss!"

I think a problem here is that technological advancement and technological progress are not necessarily the same thing. I don't think that every new piece of technology that pushes us further into some kind of strange new world necessarily is good for humanity, or society, or even just the individual. I think this is some of what you're noting in your post here. Sure, on the whole the internet has probably been a net positive for Humanity, but one can't deny that at the same time there are a lot of strikingly negative aspects of the internet, and that it's further and seemingly endless encroachment on our lives is deleterious.

I think that as I've gotten older I've become a bit more technology averse, or at the least a bit more suspicious of technology, than I used to be as a child, and maybe part of that is becoming a father, but at the very least I can respect where you're coming from and I agree with you. It seems like our world is just a never-ending carousel of novelty and we're never allowed to just absorb and respect the things that we have before something new comes in and shifts the paradigm.

Sorry, I couldn't follow your comment. Could you please interlay a second text in a different color that has poop jokes so I can have enough things to focus on? An injected mp4 of someone stapling sheet aluminum would help, too.

Yeah, welcome to the club, pal.

Wtf I've never heard of this, what a cursed way to notate large numbers

Lack of butterflies caused me to panic the first time he proposed, and I needed more time to think things through. I knew I liked him. I knew in terms of biblical values, he was a rare find. He wasn’t the most handsome guy ever, but he wasn’t repulsive either.

Oooof what a blog lmao

Also, faster and more voluminous growth =! better quality growth. See: new vs old growth lumber.

I'm chaotic good, I actually capture spiders and release them in my house. I have a population of Crossopriza lyoni in my house, all spawned from one mother.

People who complain about the fact that "emails" is an incorrect plural form, even if it's incredibly common and accepted, and sometimes language evolves and changes, should be sure that they write it 'E-mail', and also don't forget to capitalize Internet!

What I don't like about this experiment is that being hyperphantic doesn't necessarily mean "you need photographic visualizations of every scenario at all times". My mind conjures scenarios differently depending on context.

I can imagine myself barely being able to see a ball on a table, let alone a person moving into view.

I can see the ball having a glossy, low-res texture alla 1980s CGI, with the ball being pushed by a polygon figure, moving without any real animation and limply falling off the table with no gravitational speed.

I can picture a worn, shiny leather baseball sitting on an old coffee table, stained walnut. The person is Mark Wahlberg and he has a smirk on his face as he lazily finger-flicks the ball, which only barely makes it to the edge of the table before just being able to tip off the edge, bouncing twice with a heavy bomp-bomp and rolling unevenly for a couple seconds. Mark winces because his finger hurts now. I could also imagine the flavor of the baseball and what it would smell like.

The point is that an aphantic might only be able to visualize this scenario at best as well as the first description, or perhaps not even at all and they can only 'know' of the movements in the scene with zero visual or otherwise relation to it.

Hyperphantics generally can conjure near limitless detail and they can retain that information visually for long periods of time without much effort.

And I thought Alex Jones' colloidal silver was insane
