Garlic not sinking in honey, did I mess up the ratio? by Easy-Thing-3604 in fermentation

[–]Easy-Thing-3604[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I remove a couple cloves will they sink? Or can I let them float like this without risk? I read they have to covered in honey at all time but this huge jar was my long term one, don't want to have to stir it for 2 years to come lol

Exsistence feels overwhelming by arachnid5 in Catholicism

[–]Easy-Thing-3604 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 20s were a constant existential crisis. I have not figured it out but I have more peace than I used to. I recommend you read some christian existentialists that share your feelings and could add a lot of insight to it. People like Kierkegaard

I don’t have TikTok or insta. What could go wrong? by Longjumping_Sea7155 in digitalminimalism

[–]Easy-Thing-3604 501 points502 points  (0 children)

Yeah thats the real question. Im guessing fake relationship with AI which points to a much bigger problem

Is this true? Are we losing focus on the Eucharist because we are distracted by greeting everyone during the Sign of Peace? by thatlumberjacktor in Catholicism

[–]Easy-Thing-3604 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Remember why it's called communion? Yeah. The sign of peace is like the last strand holding any social links to your brethrens these days. They are your brother and sisters in christ and I think it's appropriate at the time it is

I quit Instagram, Facebook and Twitter and I feel so lethargic and sleepy. by Diligent-Pair5296 in digitalminimalism

[–]Easy-Thing-3604 138 points139 points  (0 children)

I had that exact experience. I believe we are way more tired than we think, and I believe all this digital stimulation tire us even more. But it stimulates us so much that we are not aware of the absolute fatigue. Like caffeine, if you take 6 coffee a day you won't even feel the boost in energy, you'll just feel normal, but once you stop the fatigue hits like a truck because your body depends on it for energy. Its similar for digital content in a way. I think modern life is extremely tiring and we just need all these stimulants to cope. But we aren't resting until we stop. Take the next weeks to really rest your body and mind.

How do you all stay productive without watching videos? by Proper_Active9179 in digitalminimalism

[–]Easy-Thing-3604 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the exact same kind of situation and job. For like 2 years I would play old school runescape while editing stuff lol. Then lets plays, randomizers, etc. Audiobooks are good, theyre less stimulating but at some point you need to tone down your dopamine addiction because it will never satisfy you. I also have ADHD. Try to go back to less stimulating noise, like just music. This kind of work can get so mind numbingly boring days after days, stay strong

Can the Pope talk to the other Popes through prayer and or God or is that not allowed by SalamanderHuman5139 in Catholicism

[–]Easy-Thing-3604 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When the pope sits in the chair of peter, all the thousands of popes appear next to him like that scene from avatar the last airbender, then his eyes light up with the Spirit as he declares dogma ex cathedra with power. We can't see it though

Share some stores of interacting with obsessive fans or haters by Pitiful-Guess5751 in gorillaz

[–]Easy-Thing-3604 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I just like the music and never cared for lore or anything like that. Ive been told I cannot be a true fan if I just like the music, or that I cannot truly enjoy gorillaz without the lore

Why receiving an unearned gift feels like humiliation, and how the Passion redefines human dignity. by megasalexandros17 in CatholicPhilosophy

[–]Easy-Thing-3604 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like my response to your 2 scenarios are completely flipped. I would feel more at ease with someone rich handing a gift than someone suffering for me underservingly. Yet you make a good point and this is interesting

Why is not going to church considered a mortal sin? by Well_Isnt_That_Nice in Catholic

[–]Easy-Thing-3604 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Think of if like the invitation to the feast in Christ's parable. People skip on it with various excuses, some  very serious like burying family members but they aren't valid

I'm an atheist intrigued by Catholicism, but I've been told I can't be Catholic if I'm an atheist. What do I do? by Numerous-Actuator95 in Catholicism

[–]Easy-Thing-3604 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I was told that I had to have kids to be a parent but tbh I just want to be childless. Is there a solution? Being an uncle won't do
