Bongo Hills - Vietnam Eating at Joe's - Stalingrad

Never ask a 6 year old what happened at Bongo Hills.

Can't wait to listen on my favorite podcasting app Spotify.

I try to approach dialogue from the perspective that I'm simply leaving my opinion on the table, not necesarilly trying to change people's minds. Back and forth is only really useful to clarify points. Though it can be educational in that sense that you are forced to understand your position better through challenge.

This is what I look like in real life.

Rayman as a game is really funny. Despite being so whimsical, colorful and creative, it's design is extremely malicious towards the player. Literally malicious. It is constantly trying to fuck the player over in an escalating fashion. Every time you unlock a new ability the game finds a way to use that ability against you. It's not enough just to clear every level in the game, but you have to get every single secret in the entire game. And your not told about this at any point. Not to mention the limited live system unless you are cheating. Even with cheating, it's an accomplishment to beat this game. Being so cutesy while being so cruel makes the game feel smug, like your gonna be mad at a game for babies with goofy sound effects and googly eyes.

Meh. She was by her own admission very debate brained (my phrasing). it far exceeded the point where it was really constructive in my opinion and she came off as very ideological, which made it hard to take her seriously.

Users who constantly change their profile picture or don't have one. It makes it harder to connect posts to specific users. I deliberately chose to never change my profile pic early on because it would make the user experience better for everyone. Profile pictures also just tend to be really weird, low res, lack contrast or don't suit the format of a small square. Abstract geometric shapes looks like blobs when really small. Some profile pics are just weird and creepy in a way you don't see anywhere else. And don't get me started on those garish AI generated profile pics. I perfectly understand why Leo didn't add profile banners... It humbles me to understand why thrift stores sell those weed themed Rick & Morty shirts.

Nah, certain people here are dogmatic when it comes to those things in particular. Like getting mad over meditating in a chair.

Liberal ideology and Hinduism/buddhism are the two things people on this forum really get up in arms over. The amount of cope when Dalai Lama tried to french kiss a child in public.

It seems like this issue just boil down to people perceiving an abundance of choice, therefor being less willing to commit, compromise and work towards long-term goals. The issue is that you only really get a handful of long-term relationships throughout your life at best and odds and it's not guaranteed to get better if you break up. Like, my mother is in her 50s and if she fucks up this relationship then that's it. She won't find a better man and she'll most likely die alone. A feel like a lot of our social issues essentially boils down to a lack of a strong blue core. A lack of discipline and duty to one another.

There's nothing magical about sitting cross-legged. Enjoy your tradition.

Sitting cross-legged for long periods of time just cuts off circulation it makes your back slouch. Sitting cross-legged in meditation and yoga is just tradition based on a time when sitting cross-legged was the norm. Average people couldn't afford chairs in ancient India or whatever. In my experience, the most important factor is being alert and if you slouch too much or are too comfortable you tend to fall asleep. I think the best position is a squat pose while sitting on a low to the ground cushion or stool, such that you get that three points of contact with the ground while maintaining alertness as your not afforded to fall asleep.

It's quiet the Alex Jones kind of conspiracy. Like, "sure buddy", but he was actually broadly right on this one.

Women can easily end up sleeping with a bunch of men even when they are trying to date seriously just because a lot of relationships don't pan out.
