I will sling some BS for the sport of it.
All things in existence are subject and coexist in the same spectrum of frequencies. Our soul is the center band (radio station of sorts) of our collective aura which each individual feels as I. Imagine the Sun as the Major harmonic frequency, Jupiter as the next biggest harmonic stabilizer, earth, the moon, our region, our city, etc. etc.
Our minds are a powerful radiator of frequency, the more minds tuned in to the same overtones of society, the more we influence each other and drown out the outlier spikes and chaotic frequency disruptions.
When awake, we are more subject to external stimuli, or project our own emotional frequency (like stress) which can lead us to losing the synchronicity. When asleep or trained to enter the proper mental state, we can fall deeply into the rhythm of our subconscious and loose ourselves to the collective and free ourselves of our Makyo (the earthly distractions keeping us from fully submersing our conscious into the noosphere.
Not sure if this is what you were looking for, but this song is a masterpiece of horror manifest through audio. In fact the whole album is a piece of art, troubling and dark but so well crafted.
I think there is a big piece missing if we want to make lasting change. Protests should be the first part and we have missed many opportunities by skipping the second part. Challenging the legality of the issues in court. The MLK jr. movements were so powerful because they changed the laws. In many cases they “got arrested” on purpose and then challenged the legality of the issues in court with some amazing well armed lawyering. The protests, though important, should only be to stir up public opinion and momentum, followed by a timely well thought out and public challenge to the laws we wish to change. That’s where to orgs should be focusing their energy to capitalize on these fleeting moments.
I don’t work in the industry and I could be way off here. But aren’t some of the developers hired on as a type of contract worker to finish a big game and well aware that if the next project isn’t lined up perfectly, it’s impossible to house that many employees. That’s how our construction industry is. Companies have to hire on and then trim the fat as needed.
Can’t believe no one has mentioned it already but the book that got me into reading was “Enders game” by Orson Scott Card. Fairly short and has a split set of follow up books that branch off in 2 directions in you want more.
I was at around 55 hrs during endgame, which was finishing the main story line after doing most of the side quests. I think I had 1 main base with 10 - 20 buildings and equipment. I was playing on a series S. I am boggled you didn’t have many crashes, I’ve seen hundreds of reports of similar issues when I was trying to figure out what was going on.
The jerk chicken from 3 dives in Negril, Jamaica. It might be influenced by set and setting with a gorgeous sunset and being extra hungry after getting all extra loose at Rick’s cafe but it’s one of the most memorable meals I’ve ever had. That or the earl gray brined double pork chop at Perry’s in Puyallup, Wa. Or my own recipe for “bacon beer cheese soup poured over ripped up Dill rye toast.” Or ….. I better stop here
Fedor Emelianenko always looked frumpy compared to everyone he fought. That was the last thing most people thought before they woke up from hard reboot anyway.
Drakan: Ancient Gates was my inspiration. Their magic casting blew my mind back in the day and I never understood why no one else has utilized that system. I will have to check out Arx Fatalis.
Best case scenario for me would be Biden should run, win, then immediately step down due to health concerns. Won’t happen of course.
