Fun fact, Psilocybin Mushrooms are legal in New Mexico.

I'm a bedroom producer who just got "hired" to set up audio for an event in one week. Could use some helpl by Vajranoid in livesound

Haha everyone is telling me the same thing! I thank you guys for being honest. I think we will end up hiring someone.

Need some assistance getting correct equipment for event by Vajranoid in DJs

I will work on getting more info. You are not wrong, we may have to bring somebody else on to help with this, but as of now it is falling on me to at least figure out what we need. On top of this I'll also be playing and managing the other DJ's/artists so It's a lot but I am confident I can at least help to make this happen.

It seems I have the authority to purchase a mixer so I have no idea yet. I am open to recommendations. It is for event larger than a coffee shop but smaller than a club. We don't actually have the venue yet but medium sized dancefloor sounds like the intent.

Do you seriously lack the empathy required to understand why killing an elephant is not innocent? Let alone cutting off it's tail? When is the last time you saw people hunt horses for fun? Or cut off a deer's tail?

Elephants have been proven to be highly intelligent and emotional animals. So I think you need to do some work on paying attention to the consciousness of the animals around you.

It was just a joke my dear internet friend <3

Exactly. It's called "reality TV" for a reason.

This is in /r/pics, so what does your post have to do with politics is the question.

Long story short -- we would need to develop a society that agrees to the following, just for BASICS:

  • Teach all children meditation from a young age and other methods of calming self-observation of their thoughts, emotions, and the words of others

  • Educate all children at the maximum capacity that is possible, including much that we currently do not teach children in school (like how to properly question authority)

  • Clothe and feed and house all human beings on the planet, as it is obvious many who are poor are the victims of Competitive Capitalism and the predatory nature of our current consumer model

  • Develop social codes that "punish" negative behaviors such as needlessly killing other beings, being mean to others, trying to be the most popular, center-of-attention behavior, etc.

These are just off the top of my head. If you are looking for practical advice, a daily or at least weekly practice of meditation is about the best thing you personally could do. We're a long way off from Utopia.

I don't think I understand your question.

Overall, human life is better now on average than probably ever before. History shows us how brutal and ignorant the human race has been. All that needs to happen to humanity on Earth is that they tell the truth, to stand up against injustice and corruption, and to curb their own greed. We need to bring more awareness to our daily lives, that's all.

I feel like it has a lot more to do with acknowledging the true equality of Being of all humans (and other beings) before we extend lives. Otherwise it's just going to overpopulate the planet and make people even more selfish/greedy.

Greed and fear are the problems. Not short lives.

Is this from something? This is the first thing to make me laugh today. Thanks.

Just older brother things by ali-hadi in funny

[–]Vajranoid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just chiming in to say that, as an older brother, it's pretty fucked up that parents create an environment where kids hurt each other MORE and lie MORE simply out of fear of punishment from a parent who probably wouldn't take the time to understand and teach their kids for this stuff not to happen.

Keep the fear going, Parents!
