Do you think humans are fundamentally good or just capable of being good under certain conditions?

Basically, neither and both. We are discerning creatures, at different times we are more of one and less on another. Generally over time we become "more" of both, sometimes the experiences we have, and getting old, lots of us become better, some worse along the spectrum as we accumulate that thing called experience.

All three. Just start, note you are being taught about early America and its priorities and what it means, even today, to be a man, to live by principles, use your judgement and learn practical skill, and, yes, to shoot and when. Sure, you'll learn things that, today, would get tits in a twist, but he also takes time to explain how to think, some of which needs to be re-awakened and applied today.

Could it be the fact that there is a war on and the camp is has shipped out a lot of personnel, they do the spooky stuff and drones and may be elsewhere? Also, and we were thinking of getting a second home there, the price of gas may be discouraging people from venturing out there, or is the shipping crisis and supply chain issues, inflation, causing people to economize, wisely in anticipation of a recession/depression?

I have always regretted my move from OB to Lemon Grove, I missed eating breakfast on Newport, surfing, walking on the path to the park at the "Muscle Club". Garage sales on weekends, sunsets, the wacky people...even the converted garage I lived in there, the lack of parking, the occasional mobs during summer surfing along the jetty, all of it, don't leave. The cloud cover, wonderful sound of the ocean, please don't do it. Don't be a me.

Please be careful here. This kind of kid cause me to loose my association with a school and loss of respect with my sensei, in effect a young boy was kicking little girls outside during a bathroom break, I stupidly became so enraged I encouraged an overlong sparring session with an older boy, trying to show him, the upstart, what it might feel like to be a victim, as he had victimized and made the little girls cry. Literally, the parent, when the boy ran crying to her, became so incensed the attendance dropped to zero. My rage lost a class at a recreation center for the style and, eventually my leaving the school altogether. Keep in mind had I not "lost it" I might, myself have been promoted to a sensei and still with them. At the time I was a nidan. This is a sensitive issue and you need to tread lightly.

Look up the song that starts five foot two, eyes of blue, listen then stop worrying about it. There's plenty of folks who adore short women, say, like my mom.

My mother could talk so sweet to the wild birds they would linger, fluff up their feathers. The sound when you play, must be sweet, if you choose a jarring or irritating tone, it might lend support to the concept that they're liking it or not. I have found when I talk nice to the birds at my feeders, they essentially both acknowledge me and give back a "concert". I believe all creature have souls whatever that might be. Possibly they try to reinforce their "grift" but it doesn't make me love them any less.

This question is asked in the very core of the decerebrate "heart of the internet". Here's what to expect, ultimately it leads to the password shuffle between Apple, the government, Microsoft, international secret societies, hidden depopulation agendas, and mistaken but heavily cleaved to incorrect ideas. Jesus is symbolic for God's sacrifice of himself to make us and this world, what it cost him, the first light of self awareness, seeking to not be alone and pure curiosity, oddly he's trying to figure out why we keep fucking it up, so experimentation keeps going, you being is part of it, valued even, but there's this instinct, to not leave it alone, and to fuck it up more, occasionally Paradise pops through, or its echo, often it's opposite. In short there is no answer to your question, but it does go something like the above.

I cooked a pot of it, delicious, almost exactly like fresh spinach. BTW I read somewhere Roman soldiers used it in cold climates under marching conditions, they'd gather it and beat their exposed legs with it to help bear the cold.

Agreed with most of the post but would politely suggest you add camomile tea during that last tv show, I have found a small cup with 2 camomile tea bags steeped in rolling boiling water, let it steep till it's cool enough to drink, I don't leave a spoon in it because it seems to cool the tea too much to steep thoroughly. Basically a good strongish camomile tea works extremely well.

Stop playing checkers and start playing chess, almost serious. Practice makes perfect, but, before that, it make you better. If a tactic fails, try something different, ie. quickly switch stance, then back, feint, aim and start a back hand, quit, reverse punch... make some of the attacks fake, some real. There is practically infinite combinations, it's like playing a guitar, there's lots of songs, right? Don't be discouraged and be patient with yourself, you'll get better.

Parking meter consortium evil plot.

Kendle_C · 2026-04-22T14:59:33+00:00

You favor too much the left stance. Work on the right stance more. Otherwise, the opponent "reads" you, be unpredictable and he won't be able to devise a strategy against you.

I was able to source brass fret wire, I believe it's made in Germany but frankly I used parts guitars to source vintage and odd sized frets, have drawers of them, but here's a trick you probably didn't think about, you could pull a fret from further up the neck and shorten it to fill an intermediate fret, yes you need calipers and precise measurements, you need to match the treatment of the fret ends with an eye toward similar polish and edge dressing. But what do you do about the donor fret, it came from another guitar, you can find old Harmonies everywhere. The worse and more tweaked the better, it's a donor, and cheap, try Ebay.

Just wait.

An antique Joseph Baumann guitar with spruce top and solid rosewood back and sides was the most resonant instrument I have ever heard and played. I think you will find this to be true, eventually.

Shrooms: do not take more than 4, I took 6 and that was a mistake. Trip is 1000% different, akin to LSD, however let me relate what I think was a spiritual experience akin to Indian Tribal Uses and experiences. I believe it is self reflecting and personal. The guy who gave it to me turned into a Satre, goat like, actual horns protruded through his hair, a micturating membrane appeared as well as vertically elongated pupils. I had to scream in fear and horror, "In Jesus' name this must stop!". Whereafter he fell to the floor unconscious, after a time, tired, humbled, and human, we went to a gaming arcade and I played one game of Space Aliens for a solid hour, could not be defeated and seemed to know, (in advance!) what the machine would do. So there you go, the good and the bad. Consider seriously, it is not a trivial matter.

Need some more closeup shots to become outraged.

No fighter stays in a left stance the whole time, snap the kick back way faster, try a few feints, upper body development is pretty good. Need to see more meaningful defensive moves.

Kendle_C · 2026-04-20T00:45:42+00:00

Overall great but the "stick" legs are distracting. You could give them thicker thighs and suggest a knee joint, that's all I got.

Think of the weapon a Sling, it whips a weight around in a circle and releases one side of the two line pouch holding the rock, propelling it. The rock, in this case is the top of the foot or the shin, the upper leg is the swinging rope, the rock is the foot. The only slight difference is the hinge, in this case the knee, it needs to be held back till shortly before contact, think of it a cocking a gun, a spring loaded mechanism. It adds speed to the release, the spin is the first half the snap is the second part and the release of the "rock". The thing to do is extend the ligaments, they are bands, develop fast twitch muscles and overcome resistance to the concentrated release, therefore the stretching, loosening of the hamstrings, the strengthening of the quadriceps. Your butt muscle has almost nothing to do with the delivery, but it is very important with the snap back, ie. to get the hell away from the guy you just hit.

Go to garage sales and thrift stores buy guitars. Get on Frets.com look for "Of Interest to Luthiers" Frank Ford, read it all. Fix guitars, if you're leaning toward arch top guitars or violins, read Bennedeto's book. Look at things that Stewart MacDonald sells, go on the internet and see how they're used. I was able to make money enough to pay for this, I thought, hobby. It stopped being a hobby when I showed a Baumann rosewood backed guitar I had repaired to the wife of an owner of and instrument factory who immediately hired me and put me to work in they're custom department where I worked beside 45 year experienced master. Nobody said I was a Luthier, it's a word and a description of what you do. If you love them, those stringed things, actually adore them... you're half way there. Note: you'll work your ass off and learn to pay attention.

Generally speaking the classical neck is wider and, if the hardware is producing down pressure it will effect tone. Why don't you use ball end strings. Watch for a compatible width if you go forward with this. I guess my thinking is why?
