  What we are witnessing is the near-complete isolation of the soul from the truth of everything. We are at the densest stage of evolution, stuck in material bodies and unable to look beyond them. What we see today is the perfect manifestation of it. We will live and die with so much understanding of it.

  It’s ironic, by trying to get them to hate each other he accidentally became something for all of them to rally against.

  Like reverse Stockholm syndrome.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Kanji and Hanzi belong to logograms and are not 100% phonetically indicative.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why did Montreal need to prove that it's a real place? What happened to the people who called it Montimaginary⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  This is probably one of the most genuine showerthoughts I’ve seen in a while. (insert meme of man and woman in bed: woman reckons he’s thinking about other women)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Taking a photo to remember a moment is actually outsourcing that memory to an image, so your brain does less work and remembers it worse.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This is actually scientifically proven, you sure you weren’t just recalling a tidbit from the news cycle a while back? Heh.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you're watering a plant, you're giving it water. If you're drinking water to quench your thirst, you're watering yourself.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I think my 8th grade kids would find this funny while we are learning about cellular respiration.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Everyone has died and it is by sleeping⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There is something different on that plane but no, it’s not death. Search ‘astral body’ and go from there. Or read the Tibetan Book of the Dead for a general breakdown of dying.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  While I disagree with identifying the working class with ‘chav’, the origin of the word did start very much in classism and stereotyping (hence my deep disagreement with the term). A pretty good analysis in this article: eathealthy365.com/the-rise-and-fall-of-the-chav-i…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The commenter said ‘soaking up benefits’, I don’t think the working class people would be looking like ‘chavs’ because many of them are going to and from work in uniform. Plus, you’re essentially equating all working class people with chavs? So walking into a Tescos, every member of staff is a chav?

  Isn’t that how public shared companies supposed to work? /s

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Thanks, brain⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I only see maths as really examinable, but other forms of knowledge should be garnered from experience, such as using a microscope and identifying cells, etc.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nobody has ever lit a cigarette because of happiness. Smoking is a anxiety-coping mechanism.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Social and peer pressure is a big reason why people start for sure. Especially when you get to go outside and have a quick chat during work.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Thanks, brain⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This is actually the crux of why education needs to be reformed. Are exams really testing our intelligence?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nobody has ever lit a cigarette because of happiness. Smoking is a anxiety-coping mechanism.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Smoking usually starts socially. Then it becomes a coping mechanism. You’re not wrong, some people go straight to it to cope but your post is straight up saying all smokers are plagued by problems and anxiety.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨KIDPIX⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Zoom in and out on this one. It has some cool effects.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Being a 22-year-old virgin or being 22 and never having been in a relationship is something to be shameful about.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  This post was just a negative, discriminatory opinion. This kid needs a temporary ban at least.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨SteamOS on my gaming PC?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  When I saw the post and writeup, I knew it would be Linux (or Bazzite).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨two sides⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Newton was evidently searching for meaning in the universe and God, and I don’t think it was a bullshit code search. The scientific establishment back then was extricably connected to Christianity, and esoterically with alchemy. It wasn’t the scientific establishment post-Victorian as we know it now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Even if they resign, a no-confidence vote can occur for the next prime minister. It’s just that everybody is placated for a bit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I wouldn't call it "Irritable" Bowel Syndrome...⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Exploding with Excitement.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I get texting and driving being a danger. But back in my day you could eat drink change radio stations etc. Why weren't laws implemented back then?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Texting on a tiny keyboard on a phone requires much more visual attention than finding a button (which you can feel for anyway), and changing a radio station which you only need to listen for. A drink should also be okay if you’re not raising your head full tilt.

  I’m going to take a shower now, brb when I get inspired.

  Ah yes, I knew I was messing two words up and forgot preceded! 👍

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨negativity is probably destructive to relationships⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This comment thread is creating an amazing rainbow on the left of my screen.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Clock logic⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh hot damn, first time I used that word.

  Maybe presaged?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Clock logic⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I get the joke, but the sundials of ancient civilisations precluded clocks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI generated images are probably amazing to someone on LSD⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This sort of post tells me you haven’t done LSD. You refer to them in the third person, but also the fact that you are not likely to focus on a screen if at all while on LSD.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The time and expense of commuting is theft, if that job can be done from home.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Taking into account expenses, and no need to financially budget for travel and stress about it, this is a fairly low cost way to satisfy your employees. Is the work not possibly WFH or employer would rather have people in office?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨BECOME THE INTELLECTUAL BLADE⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Joined a cult. Took years to leave. It was all lies.
