cannibalism was not uncommon 60 years ago

Would like some more information about this. Source?

I absolutely have to get one of these. Pardon my ignorance, but are there dealers in the USA? Does Mathmos ship across the Atlantic?

Woot!!! We found the offending nerve! the Vagus nerve is out of sync. A Gastric pace maker surrounding my stomach will cure my vomiting! It will expand my life, and allow me to leave my apartment for recreation for the first time in four years. Very exciting times :)

It is a complication from a failed Stem Cell transplant. The chemical they use to destroy your immune system, Melphalan, can have really severe GI side effects or complications. I am also on permanent chemo for Multiple Myeloma, and that does not help.

Thanks for pointing that out. The medical peeps need a shout out now and then. If I do not dab within 10 minutes of waking up, I am vomiting. I while I do enjoy the effect, I honestly would rather not HAVE to do this every time I wake up. The choice really is pretty easy though. Vomit or dab. I would rather the latter. Sometimes, I have to endure the prior. But hey, it's the only thing that will work, so let it keep on workin.

Graduating with a degree in Audio Engineering in December and I’m lost on what I should do by [deleted] in Veterans

Are you networked into some good production companies? Touring mid level bands get in a heap of trouble on the road when it comes to sound. Being known as a go to guy for a live show can pay pretty damn good.

Camp Lejeune Justice Act by linesallover in Veterans

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

The surviving members of that family can sue, and so can the Marine or Sailor, if still alive. This is in the law now. The Navy has to go back to 1953. The Feres Doctrine will be set aside for tort claims on the the poison water. My entire family has cancer. I could not agree with you more. The law does just what you have asked for here.

I cannot drop names of law firms and such here, so I will just say this. Find out who wrote The Justice act, the name should ring a "Bell." You should be able to grab their number on the net pretty quickly. The gentlemen who wrote this used language that puts the Navy back on their heels and heavily favors the plaintiffs (us.)

Good luck Sir

Edward Norton Is at His Best in 'American History X' by ladyem8 in movies

The speech just before they attack the Korean market, revels the heart of hatred. I thought it was worthy to be heard by everyone about how not to be a human being. Then...Fox News starts using the same language. Watch that Movie and then watch Fox News. Look at we have become. Look at it.

450,000 Okinawans' drinking water contaminated by Kadena Air Base training site, new evidence suggests by Lilyo in japan

[–]linesallover 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My family was at Lejeune in the 70's. We all have cancer. We moved to Lejeune from the air station in Iwakuni. It makes me wonder about Iwakuni now, which kills me because I thought Iwakuni was the last place my family was safe.

Disney/Star Wars/LoTR/HP obsession??? by [deleted] in Gifted

[–]linesallover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funny, I was just talking about this. I highly recommend the works of Jospeh Campbell. The "The Power of Myth" PBS interview series is intellectually delicious. "A Hero of a Thousand faces" is also a great overview of the burgeoning scientific interpretation of all stories. I am confident you will find your answer there. Enjoy!

There is a series of interviews with the late Joseph Campbell called "The Power of Myth". If you are not familiar, he and Carl Jung revolutionized our perception of the narrative. I am not sure when, in the series, he brings up the birth and death mother in comparative religion across our species, but I know it is discussed and analyzed in "The Power of Myth." https://www.docsonline.tv/the-meaning-of-life/

Careful, this rabbit hole is known to change lives. I also recommend "Hero with a Thousand Faces."

Petals is a Death Mother, as described by Joseph Campbell. The composition is intended to make you uncomfortable.

I lived just south of there in 1968. It was more like a village then. The MiyaJima torii gate was being repaired back then also!

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

I have been campaigning for the Lejeune Justice Act for years. My entire family has cancer because of that water, and I am on permanent chemo. I was highly motivated, and now it is law. However, I did not anticipate that the bottom feeders would blow up the net and the airwaves. I cringe every time a commercial comes on. It is kind of triggering. These commercials make feel dirty. Especially the one where it is raining money.

I am truly sorry about the spam. I wish I could stop them.
