    Getting hit always carries a chance of death.

    Another tragic case was a British boy getting hit by a bouncer(lightly) and just dying.

    A person I know talks about how driving bicycles without helmets is very reckless as their mother had someone fall beside them when waiting at a traffic light and just dying. Wasn’t even a bad fall

      Meanwhile, other people jump out of a plane with a broken parachute, land in a haystack and escape with a broken leg and some bruises. It’s wild how the human body can be so resilient and fragile at the same time.

          Every body part has a major artery in it.

          Get hit in the armpit, dead.

          Get hit in the thigh, dead.

          Get hit in the liver, dead.

          Break a femur and it nicks the femoral artery, dead.

          There certainly are ways to reduce the blood flow to survive a trip to the hospital, but if you don’t get blood back in you soon, you just shut down forever.

        I had a professor who spent many years in the thick of battle in the Vietnam war. He said this was one of the hardest things to deal with mentally. One person would survive after getting shot all over and the next person would get the smallest bit of shrapnel in the wrong spot and “just turn off.”

        Yeah, that’s not common, don’t count on that. Most of the time that you fall from a plane, you’re gonna die.

      I used to wonder why we don’t wear helmets and safety glasses at all times. It’s because it looks stupid

        When you are a person who is at risk you may. It’s just very uncommon and not reasonable. And people don’t like to wear PPE for the most part. Most people are fine with a reasonably small chance of death.

          I mostly thought of it because after eye surgery I had to wear wrap around sunglasses that protected my eyes, but they also looked cool. I didn’t realise how much shit got in my eyes before then, so I just never stopped wearing them. They’ve saved me from tree twigs and all sorts

          Just a wild shot in the dark, but you may enjoy trying ComfyUI, mage / video / audio generation and other fun AI stuff locally. (Download models from civitai or huggingface

          Strongly recommend Docker. Getting the system configured can be a booger. Using an image is a lot easier.

          (I’ve been playing with it recently and kinda love it right now, hence my eagerness to share)

          A good GPU has a big impact on usability / quality

          Tf is that shit? I just became a prophet in the Mormon church last week, so you have to forgive me. But, just on the context of name alone, I would say shame in itself is bad and we should not be ruled by it, but likewise, we should not be prideful and develop our willpower and ability to resist temptation in our daily lives. These means there’s a time to build up and a time to tear down. I think we should work hard 5-6 days a week and really fucking party on our sabo-domingo (sabbath). We’re not on Earth for ourselves but for our spiritual development; to be able to last eternity in God’s heaven as it grows exponentially more perfect, or even better, transcend the existence-illusion complex entirely to become one’s own independent phenomenon.

          I genuinely had a major psychological problem for two years after seeing this which aided in my disassociation with my body in the wake of my MKULTRA programming.

              I got top goals, bro

              Bucket list:

              Take over Mormon Church

              Take over the United States

              Form “legal” harem

              Teach philosophy, spirituality, and mental health skills to help people heal n self-actualize

              Learn to juggle

              So y’know, I’ve done one of these already, am in the process of doing another two, and WILL do another, because of what I’ve already done. List is in no order.

                I’m trying to figure out which one you’ve already done. I mean, you may have usurped control of the Mormon church, how would I know? I’m not a Mormon.

                  I study system sciences. I study collective attention and priority shifting within a cult/culture. I 100% Know how to take over a congregation, it’s a matter of going through with something so ballsy.

                  Y’know, MAGA is a cult. America is a cult. Democrats are a cult. Pepsi is a cult. A cult is just a network structure centered around a collective mission. I know the intermechanics of which to do as Joseph Smith did.

                  The joke is, I’m an artist. I work with confidence.

                  crickets

                  Confidence arts? Con arts! That’s what that word means, just like my teleological purpose - the reason I was made - is to teach, as at my core I am an educator.

    Normally, I just open my apartment door and masturbate in quiet, but noticeable passing while the delivery driver brings the package to my door. 9/10 times, when it’s a woman of any sex, they participate, but it’s 3/10 men that participate, and 1/10 of women call the cops, 3/10 of men, and 3/10 of men try to whoop your ass. That is honest gonzo reporting, right there.
