Especially with Project 2025 (day one after the election of the next GOP candidate). The executive branch will no longer be controllable by the other two branches. Also, Schedule F will allow all “policy-related” government workers to be rescheduled as fireable employees, allowing the Prez to install loyalists throughout the entire government. It’s definitely time to freak the fuck out.
And for trying to pull the group along, as futile as it may be.
I respect it. We need more of this.
Redesign the spine for vertical use. Don’t put the eating and breathing tubes on either side of the same flap.
Dr. Blitz called Simulation Theory religion for tech bros and I can’t get it out of my head 😅
Still an odd accusation to me… How does that privilege say anything about ego, given that history probably won’t remember the renamers specifically?
Um. The names aren’t being replaced with other personal names, and even if they were, it’s certainly not with the names of the people doing the replacement.
From what I’ve seen, a lot of the motivation to not have peoples’ names attached to things is because people have things attached to them (such as racism). Not saying that’s every case, but I’m sure that’s a significant factor behind the general push.
Some birb names have recently been changed, but it was more about reversing racial stereotypes. The tits and bananaquits got to stay
Y’all showed up for this post! Lemmy is looking better all the time :)
TW: Existentialism/Death
Not a funny thing to say before going out, but when I was about to do the mask I thought about what it would be like to be totally unconscious after I die, and woke up laughing and cracking jokes. It wasn’t so bad during the procedure when my awareness was off 😜
I contacted my House rep. Thanks!
From a biological perspective, your dreams are part of the process of moving short term memories from the hippocampus to the neocortex. This will involve perceiving symbolic representations of your experiences, feelings, memories, predictions, etc. As far as being “meaningful,” that’s relative to the implications you’re interested in. If you’re looking for meaning, look for the common psychological underpinnings of certain symbols (e.g. teeth falling out, not wearing pants, etc.) and see what that might expose about the things your brain is processing. Just remember that specific archetypes are often offered by people based on tradition and superstition; Make sure you’re looking at reliable sources, especially considering that your brain is going to process a lot more than people have worked out, and not every archetype is likely to carry information you find meaningful.
I only hang out with people who know they’re stupid.
Loving the original content
If I remember correctly, there’s a group of scholars that translate it as “appropriate.”
I didn’t see this comment until after I made the same one lol
Lie to Me
I love the idea of reforestation through memorial trees
It’s illegal to have your remains decomposed naturally (or one of those cool new methods like composting or alkaline hydrolysis). You’re legally required to be stuffed full of embalming chemicals and buried in a box, or cremated, polluting the air and wasting bioavailable nutrients, to be turned into high pH, high sodium ashes.
I think this is because the laws were mainly created by Catholics (this is Louisiana, where we have parishes instead of counties), and people are still too superstitious to make sense.
