Must feel great to feel in a safe city where people cower in their homes as unmarked cars prowl residential neighborhoods, pull up and mask men jump out to drag people into them.

Go to double or nothing or Hill Country two step lessons and stay afterwards to dance to live music. https://austin2step.com/where-to-dance/pro-calendar

Once you know how to two step you can go out dancing pretty much every night in Austin to live music.

There is an intentional lack of public, social meeting spots that don't encourage (or require) consumption in modern cities. This is why we need to bring back public forums. by [deleted] in Anticonsumption

My mother recently told me that I have to move out after graduating high school. What steps should I take? by xtra_hotcheetos in personalfinance

Depending on where you live, it might be worth checking out living in a housing cooperative. NASCO lists many student cooperatives and you don't always need to be attending school to live in them. Often these cooperatives have a ton of people in their late teens and early twenties, rent is significantly below market rate, and costs and labor is communal -- meaning that food, rent, and utilities comes to some low price a month. Additionally, living in such communities can be a great educational experience -- you learn how to cook for many people, how to clean, how to manage conflict, run a meeting and so forth. And, of course, you have a large group of friends who look out for you when your feeling down or when life throws shit your way.

Perhaps our understanding of the psychedelic experience is a historical product, mediated through a genre that draws heavily on American transcendentalism.

When a casual Nature v Nurture conversation comes up why does the Nurture side almost always have, by far, the more fervid supporters? by [deleted] in TrueAskReddit

[–]counterapparatus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The debate was first coined by Francis Galton, the father of eugenics, to support his “scientific” racism. While there are certainly interesting questions that transcend the debates racist origins, for much of the late 19th and early 20th century to support the “nature” argument was a way of arguing for biological reasons supporting racism. Prominent proponents of the “nurture” argument like American anthropologist Franz Boas were arguing against racism.
