Ideally when properly understood each religion usually means well and enhances oneself in some way, from my little studying into a couple popular ones they seem to be aiming for similar things so I'm less and less convinced of inherently biased religious practices and more and more convinced of sucky people.

I think spirituality goes hand in hand with mental health and when we understand it badly we dig ourselves into deeper holes or when we understand it rightly we keep ourselves from falling in holes.

If what you teach someone helps them, that is good, otherwise just leave them alone.

Unless there is some behind the scenes stuff not in the us they seem to be made in the us, probably material import costs maybe.

Star trek clothing line (www.volantedesign.us)

Yoo this is actually kinda sick, its star trek inspired clothing line.

They dont scream star trek but any fan will not miss it if they notice, I'm not sure I'd wear any around much even if I got one just because they are still slightly noticeable as not usual clothing but they just look like fancy clothes, some of them like the v necks or hoodies seem like they would be pretty wearable though. They sell the old dresses too, they stand out like a sore thumb lol If you are into leather jackets they would work well, they don't stand out much but still very much seem like star trek.

They are suuuper expensive though I think the materials reflect their price

And they sell cool golden metal star trek badges

The bone comic book omnibus from Jeff smith Bone omnibus amazon link

The book is basically Tolkien+Disney, it is aimed at a kid audience but it tackles some heavy topics that adults will enjoy, its great because it tackles metaphysics a lot in ways that are interesting for all ages.

I guess at this point I should consider myself a buddhist.

I was raised in a Christian household in the us midwest but never felt drawn to it or any form of sprituality, over the years Buddhism in its many forms kept creeping up on me enough times and explaining things in such elegant ways that I eventually looked into Tibetan Buddhism more closely and realized that once you understand how the symbolism of it all works in terms of connecting the words of practices to actually useful life tips then it becomes a great benefit to yourself and others.

As simply as possible, I chose this route because it is like becoming a scientist of experiences and all the practices we do are things that prove what we experience just as a scientist forms a postulate, a Buddhist forms a practice that leads to some form of awareness.

Actually now that you mention it I think you are half right after looking into it more.

It does seem like it is actually heavily regulated and not necessary illegal, but I guess this would mean illegal for unlicensed people to sell.

If I had to guess most sellers in the us with tritium in their products aren't selling tritium but rather selling procured items with tritium and thats probably a legal workaround for that.

Ohh I think I got confused when you mentioned plug, I guess you meant linking to your post

 

Today I learned that it is illegal to sell tritium in the us but it is not illegal to buy it in the us...so here is a website selling tritium trinkets that come from taiwan!

They are like glow sticks that last for 10 years, it is perfectly safe unless maybe you were drinking liquid tritium for a few weeks.

 

Maybe soon we will have our breakdancing robo-caretakers that never sleep and allow us to not spend time on upkeeping our homes, even if things like this end up costing as much as a car I think it would still be a worthwhile time saving investment

Got my pictures of the total lunar eclipse together, this was my first attempt at doing a final collage photo at each phase, which I kind of bunged up the timings a little bit but it still turned out good enough.

Wow thankyou everyone! I was not expecting to get 280+ upvotes

 

In terms mamalian biomass, humans make up 36%, our livestock makes up 60% and every other wild mammal makes up just 4% of the mamalian biomass, witch is absolutelly wild In terms of all animals, we make up 2.5% of biomass, and in terms of all living things we make up 0.01% biomass

 

I am looking to migrate from mastodon to friendica because my mastodon server is shutting down and the idea of friendicas all in one platform approach fits my needs/wants out of my use case. Which is basically me wanting a personal account for my real identity, its not something im looking to use a lot just a way I can see the rest of the fediverse in a easy way that is separate from my internet identity.

 

I think this guy also made some other ads that are just as hilarious too but I may be misremembering, feel free to link them below too.

This is funny to me because san-disk literally means no disk, same as how sans serif means no serifs.

why is it that when i post on some communities i cant see my post on the community but apparently at least some other people can see and respond to it?

example is when i posted on the kgatlw community about the band called doom gong recently.

is it some kind of federation shenanigans like when a server is not federated with one but the other one is?

...now that i think about it, this is probably something thst has been asled before, i should have checked before posting this but ill still post anyways.

another question, if that is the case then is there a easy way to tell which servers are federated with which?

fixed: turns out hide read posts setting was enabled so i didnt see them, i had to change it on through the browser login, changing it in the voyager app for lemmy didnt change it.

They look and sound so similar, listen to these songs! Stumbled upon them at a random event I was at and was super impressed so I found them online and now I am sharing here

Compare these 6 songs below

KGLW - I'm in your mind Doom Gong - the gong rings on

KGLW - altered beast Doom Gong - bridge of doom

KGLW - sense Doom Gong - memory maze
