"Just according to Keikaku" God

How do our brains process reality? Like this.

You can always stop trying to distinguish between dreams and reality and just accept whatever you're experiencing as a sort of superposition of both.

Yo, that's such a cool dream and it's cool to talk to a Lakota. I love trippy dreams.

I had a dream last night where I was walking through a forest with some of my older relatives who had passed away (dad and grandpa) and we were just talking about life and I was asking for advice. I can't remember anything that was "said", but the dream resulted in the same sense of peace and calm that I normally got when talking to them irl.

There are multiple housing problems and they're all probably way more complicated than anyone wants to acknowledge. The highest priority "housing problem" right now imo is that there are people who don't have a safe place to sleep at night.

In order to solve that problem you need

1. Safe housing to provide to those people
2. A system for assigning those people to the housing.

Building/acquiring housing costs money. If the government isn't doing its job and spending money to solve this problem we need to

1. Hold them accountable through voting
2. Take matters into our own hands as a community and attempt to contribute to a local solution in whatever capacity we're able to contribute (donations, volunteering, organizing). Once we have legitimate trustworthy organizations that are doing a good job solving the problem then we can hopefully proceed by driving more support for them.

Creating a system to assign individuals to housing is probably the more "difficult" part because there needs to be some sort of consensus on the mechanics of prioritization. I personally think we should prioritize housing for individuals and families with children, but after that I don't know who we should serve next.

Specifically the most acid trippy chapter of the Bible that describes the end of the world.

If this happens irl I'll have your back. I'm totally comfortable replying with something stupid like "And what are you supposed to be you? I would call you 'sir', but you're not acting like a man."

That's super cool, I've wanted to do something similar like this but never have had the opportunity.

I don’t think people should have to do that, but including context is generally an important part of asking a question.

Like if I’m trying to fix a problem and I need help I’d be like “I’m getting error code 123 on my printer (make, model). I’ve tried turning it off and on again, unplugged it from the wall, but the error always pops up as soon as it finishes powering on. Anyone have any experience with this and how to solve it?”

Take that back, Chick Tracts are gold.

I believe the average American inmate is more likely to want a Bible than a Quran.

This is what it feels like to grow old.

It actually makes sense as a campaigning song to me as long as your platform is about trying to address the social problems the song is highlighting.

Two weeks? I feel like 9 months minimum.

I like how in Trump's world he thinks he needs to explain the internet to people.

It's not so bad being the worst player on the team. Just means you have a lot of room for improvement as long as you're willing to learn. Honestly it's one of my favorite situations to find myself in. "Oh I suck. How can I get better?"

People who like talking and listening I suppose. Then just click the mute button on someone's name if they're being abusive.

Yeah, I definitely get that. Even so, sometimes I think it'd be nice to talk to people for more clarity. Maybe voice chats would require a moderator to start them and stay there to facilitate the conversation?

Hot take: All criteria used to classify ideas and objects into distinct categories can eventually break down. The only reason to pursue the creation of classification systems is to facilitate communication. If we get to a point where we start throwing chairs at each other I'd argue were no longer willing to communicate, and so arguing about whether something is "this" or "that" is no longer a priority. The priority should become attending to the mental and emotional wellbeing of the individuals in the absence of labels.

I don't think solid state batteries provide as much benefit in smaller devices.
