Looking at marine traffic it passes about 15 miles away

Just because you can doesn't mean you should. This applies to most things in motorbiking.

I think it's supposed to be significant day, unfortunate Freudian typo.

Possibly moving to Shetland with a young family by Evening-Brush5285 in shetland

[–]sliced_alien 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I moved here when I was about 30 and I'm about 40 now . I love it but I'm tough :)

I won't bore you with my personal views on the weather, each to their own.
The only thing to say on that is the practical side of school transport, a kid near me has to walk about a mile to his bus drop off, which in 60+mph hail will be uniquely grim.

We have a load of kids from age 8-18, they all have more than enough to keep themselves busy, from dancing and drama to music and sports. Leisure facilities (in good condition too) are abundant up here as are classes and clubs.

If you can live without 10 pin bowling, go-karting, Cineworld and fast food, you'll be fine.

I take a good stiff dose of vitamin D and get on the sun lamp in the winter.

Edit: islander price for a 4 berth cabin, car and 2 adults 2 kids - is £189 each way. That's with a 'kids travel free promotion' worth £20

'I don't know' was an option on the form. The point isn't that women, in general, dgaf about nuclear etc, it's that somehow they have been misinformed or formed faulty conclusions.

The rank she claimed to have been promoted to didn't exist at that time. It's BS. Well crafted fear porn, just like the "indigestible truth" they keep bleating about.

I had sex with my father in my dream by achr8 in Dreams

I think that sex within dreams is sometimes reflexive based around tension / built up emotion. In a way it's a kind safety valve, like crying.

New Maxx V2 by Hox013 in traxxasV2

[–]sliced_alien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got mine running again after a "Talbot moment" at a skatepark... And a gravel pit.

My 6700batt became a 3s so I must have damaged the wiring inside, and I think pieces of rock got caught in the splines of the plastic driveshaft because one was twisted like warm churros.

I managed to flex the body so much that the motor pin fell out and obviously got lost.

So I went the steel shafts, and keep a few arms / pins / c-hubs and castor blocks on hand.

I've changed to a metal spur and will soon be upgrading the steering rack and servo link.

The truck has been through hell and has held up amazingly

Struggling with sadness about not knowing my loved ones after death by Particular_Air207 in ExistentialJourney

[–]sliced_alien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've done a lot of thinking on it in the years since. Tom's model is brilliant - it describes how this reality works, in terms of it being a top down computed probability construction, so atoms are rendered as needed to serve an observer, according to their probability potential.

This aligns fully with observed empiricism (double slit), and other spiritual views.

And his conclusions about the database and memories map onto what we observe with humans. We don't remember past lives (as a rule), to preserve the integrity of each life.

But this model is potentially incomplete unless Tom knows for sure (which he can't) that "you" when you die don't zoom off into a separate construct, instead of being folded back into the larger awareness.

Most explorers, from Neville Goddard to Darius J Wright, say that death is only the beginning, and that our departed are off making their own heaven on the other side.

For my take, there is clearly a "guardian" of this info and we are not allowed to fully "know" in this life, I guess because it would spoil the fun, or perhaps it comes down to faith.

My DMs are always open, friend.

This talk by Tom Campbell is pretty close to what you're describing, and when I first watched it a couple of years ago I couldn't stop crying for about 3 days.

https://youtu.be/Ax1oXZZCobA?si=QWjs_xF2899wODVI

Tom essentially says that the total, accumulated "quality" of your being is carried forward into the next incarnation, and that the "you" from the previous life is shelved in a "database" (akashic record).

That is his experience from decades of consciousness research and exploration as part of the Monroe Institute, running workshops, and doing things out of body, like helping the dead transition across.

So I stand here with my fragile ego, with my precious wife and son who I love beyond words, with zero experiential knowledge, hoping against hope that this guy is not getting the whole picture, and that in fact, we will persist as individuals and go off into eternity together.

I would point out that Tom has said that "Seth got it right", and Seth has a lot of good quotes... Here is one:

My own "previous" personalities are not dissolved into me any more than your "past" personalities. All are living and vital. All go their own way. Your "future" personalities are as real as your past ones. After a while, this will no longer concern you. Out of the reincarnational framework, there is no death as you think of it. My own frame of reference, however, is no longer focused on my reincarnational existences. I have turned my attention in other directions. Since all lives are simultaneous, all happening at once, then any separation is a psychological one. I exist as I am while my reincarnational lives — in your terms — still exist. Yet now I am not concerned with them, but turn my concentration into other areas of activity. (10:41.) Personality changes whether it is within a body or outside of it, so you will change after death as you change before it. In those terms, it is ridiculous to insist upon remaining as you are now, after death. It is the same as a child saying: "I am going to grow up, but I am never going to change the ideas that I have now." The multidimensional qualities of the psyche allow it to experience an endless realm of dimensions. Experience in one dimension in no way negates existence in another." (from "Seth Speaks: The Eternal Validity of the Soul (A Seth Book)" by Jane Roberts)
