After decades of camping, I only recently found out most (modern) sleeping bags are actually meant to be stuffed in their bags, not rolled up. Just kinda keep stuffing it in there and they seem to naturally fill gaps better than if they were rolled up first, so they're easier and much faster to pack away.
There's a random LPT for ya.
Bring a journal with you—or something—and write down why you feel great and not anxious.
Read it when you're feeling quiet and anxious.
Society can be a prison and social anxiety is the most common symptom of a captive. Everyone's happy when they are themselves. You can have fun with alcohol, but you can have just as much fun without it. Nothing is different except that alcohol drops your guard and makes you care less about what others think.
I've been in my backyard with headphones, dancing alone like no one's watching. I now do that all the time without booze, because clearly I want to do that to feel happy. Fuck anxiety. Don't let it become depression 😘
Haha, I just responded to another comment of having to pull myself up from shallow drowning. It's for real, but I think it's specific to people with good long capacities—doing a lot longer than the average. I can easily hold my breath for 60s, but 90% of people can't. Shallow drowning is not a situation 90% of people could find themselves facing.
I always remember brain damage can start occuring after 180s, so start questioning at 120. Nothing wrong with coming up for a couple mins of good fresh air before going down again.
It's not really about what you can see and clarity, but it's true that clearer water is much more psychologically inviting.
We'll bring a smooth granite pebble out with us, while waiting for the swell, drop it down and take turns bringing it back up. We've had dolphins join us in the game once before.
But definitely I don't feel the appeal of diving down and doing that when the sky or water is dark and unclear. It's less inviting.
I've never SCUBAd haha. I don't know why, it makes sense, but I've never been drawn to it and I can't really explain why. I love the freedom of movement and not having to think about other things.
Feediving I can't get enough of. But my record swimming underwater is around 2:10 and I enjoyed every second of it—relaxed, efficient, flowing—but I had to stop because it felt like I could do it forever. And that's the paradox of shallow drowning. When the euphoria of the ocean gets inexplicably more euphoric, the Sirens calling, it's time to surface. I guess like a diver checking their gauges.
I should try SCUBA, though. I'd love to go deeper. I'd love to find a spot and just hang there for a long time and take it all in.
I’m not sure what prompted that, but if you’re upset about something, I’m open to discussing it. If this is just for fun, well, that’s an interesting way to start a conversation. People have different ways of expressing themselves, and if this is yours, I’ll take it in stride. There are plenty of ways to engage, though, and this one doesn’t seem particularly productive.
If your goal was to offend me, you’ll have to try harder. Words only carry as much weight as we allow them to, and I don’t take things like this personally. The internet is full of knee-jerk reactions, insults, and flippant remarks, but they rarely have the impact people think they do. If anything, they often reveal more about the person saying them than the one they’re directed at.
On the other hand, if you’re actually frustrated, I’d rather address the issue than trade insults. Clarity gets you further than hostility. If something I said or did rubbed you the wrong way, let’s talk about it. I can take criticism just fine, but I prefer it to be constructive. Insults are easy; meaningful discussion takes effort.
If this is meant as a joke, I’ll assume you have a sharp sense of humour. I can roll with that, but let’s keep it entertaining rather than just crude. A well-placed bit of sarcasm or wit can be fun, but straight-up profanity doesn’t have much creativity to it. If you’re going for an edgy, rebellious vibe, at least make it interesting.
Communication is a two-way street. If you’ve got something on your mind, I’d rather hear it directly than through aggression. I can engage with sharp remarks, humour, or even heated debate, but random hostility is just noise. If you’ve got a point, make it. If you don’t, this isn’t much of a conversation, is it?
There’s a certain efficiency to rudeness, but it rarely accomplishes much. A bit more substance would make for a better exchange. If you’re trying to push buttons, I’d ask why that’s the approach you’ve chosen. If it’s frustration, let’s unpack it. If it’s just for the sake of being rude, then that’s a bit uninspired.
Regardless, I’m still here. If you want an actual conversation, I’m happy to engage. If not, well, that’s your call. But life’s short—why waste time on empty words when you could say something that actually matters?
Yeah, I just copy+paste LLM responses and see how far I can go with it. Minimal effort; many triggers. It's the age of apathetic trolling. Best they waste their time on whatever the hell was said in the paragraphs above—I certainly didn't read it—than continue elsewhere being some shithead to someone.
Booze is good fun, but not if you're prone to dependency on substances. I really like booze to heighten a mood a bit more, but there's a point where I don't like it anymore. I think there's quite a few people that never recognise their personal boundary when it approaches and then it flies on by.
Like almost everything in life—substances, exercise, sun, food—moderation is key. Enjoy too much of a good thing and it'll start harming you.
It's an interesting diet this breed needs. Basically small frozen scraps, but very rich in content. Their digestive systems evolved as nomads north of the Arctic Circle and know nothing else, so a bit of care needs to be taken. His body will do a lot with the vital scraps of tundra animals, and doesn't know how to handle big foreign diets which make him unenergetic and unwell after a few meals.
Tonight's menu is sheep and beef tripe—their organs go well, but their meat and fat doesn't.
Frozen salmon cuts—these dogs know fish as well as reindeer and love frozen meet. They extract all the goods from them.
And a rabbit foot—Fur and bone is common in their diet and helps clean. They can start to poop bad without fur fibre.
One of the more tame dishes considering the other weird off cuts of bits and pieces he gets. Thought some may find it interesting for a bit of an unusual breed outside of Finland.
Edit: And yeah, the photo makes the meal look big and him small. But he's 20kg and that dish is about 3/4 a banana in diameter.
Because some genius in Japan wanted to know what would happen if you put a 4×4 drivetrain into a van.
The elevation change and subsequent plank scrape made eau rouge look like it had a shit stain.
And no, you cannot find the original post anymore. At least it's missing for me, the OP, unless I locate it through inbox history.
Coincidentally, the meme was about mods on shitposts lol. I'll be banned soon 🫡
I recently saw one doing this. It was a different design where I think it was meant to look like it's waving at the elbow, but much of the time, the "bicep" part deflated and the arm dropped, then to get into the wave position again, would come out the front of the body.
To translate the arm movement, it was like, "Hello! Hello! Hello!... Heil! Hello! Hello!... Heil!"
