Never turn your back against a friend, if you find out that they're incontinent in any way. It might happen to you one day.

Yes!
Humans ruin all things sooner or later

My theory on mainstream
It all starts with 1 persons idea
I will use music for my example
A person starts a band
They play local shows
Say they started punk
The movement reaches the locals
The ones who can identify
Slowly it spreads and becomes an underground movement
The rich are smart and watch for these usually poor unconnected people
They see a trend and invest in it
Sign people
Take advantage of them
Use them
Shape the sound to be more homogenized for the masses
They slap the same label on it
But its different
And the rich end up emulating the poor
Individuality becomes Trendy
Rich people long ago were fatter
Now its cool to be super skinny
Not eat alot
Like a poor person
But still pay way too much
To show they arent actually poor
Now poor people are fat
Because fresh foods are usually grown by the poor
And the rich just buy it
They set the prices
Make it hard to get
The poor have to eat cheap mass produced garbage
Also delicacies are a usually the food that peoples poor ancestors ate because they couldnt afford anything else
Like Snails
And they just dress it up nicely
And charge an butt load
For garden pests
The rich emulate the poor
The poor emulating the rich
Thats another disaster
I dont even want to start on right now

If I have my legs hanging over the side of the bed something will pull me under. I just know it. If I sleep belly down, someone will stab me in the back.

'cept on a bible.
the ultimate purpose of all living things, is to ascend to godhood and beyond. of course there are people [especially on PPR] who will retort by saying i must've just collected that in a fart-collecting diaper.

I had this really out there theory once
Peoples purpose is to consume and rebuild every bit of matter until the whole universe is in their image/ control
All things must be boxy and structured
We want to control every aspect of everything
Which gets to ascension to godliness

I like nature because even though its chaotic
There are patterns
Just harder to see
Also
Odd numbered item are aesthetically pleasing
I learned that in culinary school
Its common in nature

Has anyone ever looked real close at a pine tree and noticed how the needles grow
Its in a pattern around a pine cone
Its set to grab the most light via needle systems
To help grow the seeds

My therapist diagnosed me with social anxiety when I went for my AS screening
I couldnt understand and almost cried
My mom told her therapist and she said she had never heard of that kind of reaction
I was told I wasnt me
Now here is the theory part

If I am an Aspie wouldnt I be able to tell if I had AS
Only problem is I have no validation
Catch 22
My self awareness is so high
I know I am because I am
Doctors are too textbook sometimes and cant look for subtelties
Too much pressure from high up I suspect
Corporate health has its appearances to hold up
No going out on limbs
You might fall get hurt and sue the company
Oh well
I am what I am, and thats all that I am
Im Bobby the Aspergian. Toot! Toot!

I have a theory that if you fantasize about something enough; you might could eventually completely lose your grip on reality & your fantasy will become completely real to you & the real world will be gone to you. I'm testing this theory by fantasizing about Miranda Cosgrove :study: :heart:

if there were no wrong planet, somebody else would've invented a dark star in a bad sign.

I love it
Also How do the Ranks work and how do I get my veteran status?

i believe you need 439 more posts [to reach 500] before the automated counter/rank allotment thingie give you "veteran" status. after that, you need another 500 before you get to choose a custom rank. what is a custom rank? look at my description above my avatar, it says "chief assistant to the assistant chief" - before that, it was "prince of peas" and before that it was "prince of insufficient light" - those are examples of what a custom rank is, IOW just another funny way you can describe yourself in a thumnail description or nutshell. hope this helps.

I like the Drake Equation, I want to believe in it although it's more based on observation without any firm conclusions ..

Image
where:

N = the number of civilizations in our galaxy with which communication might be possible;

and

R* = the average rate of star formation per year in our galaxy
fp = the fraction of those stars that have planets
ne = the average number of planets that can potentially support life per star that has planets
fℓ = the fraction of the above that actually go on to develop life at some point
fi = the fraction of the above that actually go on to develop intelligent life
fc = the fraction of civilizations that develop a technology that releases detectable signs of their existence into space
L = the length of time for which such civilizations release detectable signals into space.

Historical Drake Equation values give (N = 10 × 0.5 × 2 × 1 × 0.01 × 0.01 × 10,000 = 10.) 10 possible advanced technological civilizations in our galaxy..

Current Estimates -
R* = 7/year, fp = 0.5, ne = 2, fl = 0.33, fi = 0.01, fc = 0.01, and L = 10,000 years
N = 7 × 0.5 × 2 × 0.33 × 0.01 × 0.01 × 10,000 = 2.31 (so two communicative civilizations exist in our galaxy at any given time, on average, plus two hundred more that are not trying to communicate).. In actuality, it could be 1 to millions
