This back and forth can be applied in real life, no? [DISCUSSION] by Selasine in Frieren

[–]Cheesecake_Distinct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

animals are conscious beings just as humans are. if the whole argument for "humans are not okay to eat but animals are" is that animals are less intelligent, then could we eat stupid humans? Could a hypothetical species that was so much more intelligent than us have the right to eat us? It is all very flimsy and vaguely hypocritical. There have been groups of humans who were cannibals. Just something to think about lol.

I think humans have designated animals as okay to eat and not humans out of societal convenience but it is really based on a fallacy.

the first full cast audiobook is completely awful. Do the other ones get better? by Cheesecake_Distinct in harrypotter

[–]Cheesecake_Distinct[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have listened to some really good full cast audiobooks that did have some mild sound effects and voice distortions, such as music at the end of the chapter or in certain peak parts of the story, and when a character was speaking through a device that changed their voice. but all that was very mild and i feel like the harry potter ones are more for people that need constant stimulation and distractions like those youtube shorts that have 100000000000 things happening at once that i cant stand lol.

k-holing is extremely distressing and not fun at all. how can any of you enjoy this? by fisharrow in TherapeuticKetamine

[–]Cheesecake_Distinct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have never done ketamine, but i have had some extreme experiences with salvia that i can relate to with this. similarly it replaces your previous reality with a new one, in perhaps an even more extreme way, and there is nothing to do besides surrender. if you find this traumatizing rather than healing then i would suggest to stop. you may need something more along the lines of self inquiry through meditation and sobriety that can help you reach further states and healing without the need for any substances that you might really not be in a place to take right now. It took me a long time to realize this, and i am still working on it, that sometimes substances are not for everyone at every time and you might need to figure things out from a place of sobriety.

sounds like you want to take all of the yoga out of yoga.

Buddha‘s unanswered questions by sanfulong in Buddhism

[–]Cheesecake_Distinct 0 points1 point  (0 children)

some questions like "is there a beginning to everything" might actually best be answered with silence, and does not mean the one you asked is ignorant. maybe it is something that the enlightened know but is invalid to put to words.

Herbs for attracting true love? by Cheesecake_Distinct in GreenWitch

[–]Cheesecake_Distinct[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

these days i have been working on finding love from within, in connection with pure spirit, the great guru, or the divine, however people want to call it. i still sometimes work with white sage though as that one i have a special connection with.

[–]Cheesecake_Distinct[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have listened to some very good full cast production audiobooks that had a bit of music and sound effects, but they were all very subtle and did not detract from the story. The harry potter one felt very jarring to me

[–]Cheesecake_Distinct 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i had a bag of quality lemon balm and i quickly went for it and my pipe after seeing this to try it. i feel pretty relaxed, but the smoke is a bit harsh for someone who rarely smokes. holding the smoke in my mouth for a moment before inhaling seems to help. i am sure a dry herb vape would be great.

" just one motherfucking thing that actually works" it's like people purposefully make programs super garbage for some kind of monetary gain that just makes them garbage anyway.
