🇺🇦

also got all four of mine out at once and seed butter smoothies, vicodin, and video games got me through the first couple weeks of healing. and telling myself “phewee at least i never have to do THAT again!”

they hopefully told you this but don’t smoke anything or drink with straws

lmao i’m going to start replying to all sorts of things with “over ukraine’s dead body”

remembering a thread from a couple weeks ago where some nerd-for-being-wrong from a different instance kept starting their replies to matters of historical fact with "i find your claims dubious… " like they were a character from ace attorney or something

pineapples, probably the tastiest fruit. only real competition i can think of is a perfectly juicy ripe nectarine. a good mandarin style citrus is up there but it feels like a game of roulette whether or not you’ll get a good bag of em. i half-remember something from college about a theory that the evolution of full-color vision in primates was because the ability to better see big bright bbulging fruits about to bbburst off the bbbbranches against the backdrop of green foliage was such an extreme advantage.

fair enough!

ahh where’s the keep me logged in box? i cannot find it for some reason

i’m gonna eat a chocolate chip juul pod

Since the prefed update every time i open the site through the icon/lil app thing from doing “add to homescreen” on chrome, I’m logged out. Sometimes even putting it in the background and coming back logs me out. Is this just how it is now?

Oh yeah look at that it’s an expander thingy. But yeah it’s a rock hyrax! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_hyrax

You tasked me to provide an assessment of the Gateway Experience in terms of its mechanics and ultimate practicality. As I set out to fulfill that tasking it soon became clear that in order to assess the validity and practicality of the process I needed to do enough supporting research and analysis to fully understand how and why the process works. Frankly, sir, that proved to be an extremely involved and difficult business. Initially, based on conversations with a physician who took the Gateway training with me, I had recourse to the biomedical models developed by Itzhak Bentov to obtain information concerning the physical aspects of the process. Then I found it necessary to delve into various sources for information concerning quantum mechanics in order to be able to describe the nature and functioning of human consciousness. I had to be able to construct a scientifically valid and reasonably lucid model of how consciousness functions under the influence of the brain hemisphere synchronization technique employed by Gateway. Once this was done, the next step involved recourse to theoretical physics in order to explain the character of the time-space dimension and the means by which expanded human consciousness transcends it in achieving Gateway’s objectives. Finally, I again found it necessary to use physics to bring the whole phenomenon of out-of-body states into the language of physical science to remove the stigma of its occult connotations, and put it in a frame of reference suited to objective assessment.

I began the narrative by briefly profiling the fundamental, biomedical factors affecting such related techniques as hypnosis, biofeedback and transcendental meditation so that their objectives and mode of functioning could be compared in the reader’s mind with the Gateway experience as the model of its underlying mechanics was developed. Additionally, that introductory material is useful in supporting the conclusions of the paper. I indicate that at times these related techniques may provide useful entry points to accelerate movement into the Gateway Experience.

Niels Bohr, the renowned physicist once responded to his son’s complaints about the obtuse nature of certain concepts in physics by saying: “You are not thinking, you are merely being logical.” The physics of altered human consciousness deals with some conceptualizations that are not easily grasped or visualized exclusively in the context of ordinary “left brain” linear thinking. So, to borrow Dr. Bohr’s mode of expression, parts of this paper will require not only logic but a touch of right brain intuitive insight to achieve a complete comfortable grasp of the concepts involved. Nevertheless, once that is done, I am confident that their construction and application will stand up to the test of rational critique.

Paradoxically, having gone to such great lengths to avoid trying to render judgements based on an occult or dogmatic frame of reference in the end I found it necessary to return, at least briefly, to the question of the impact of the Gateway Experience on common belief systems. I did so because although it was essential to avoid attempting to render an assessment in the context of such systems, I felt that it was necessary after having completed the analysis to point out that the resulting conclusions do not do any violence to the fundamental mainstream of either eastern or western belief systems. Unless that point is clearly established, the danger exists that some people will reject the whole concept of the Gateway Experience in the mistaken belief that it contradicts and is therefore alien to all that they hold to be right and true.

This study is certainly not designed to be the last word on the subject but I hope that the validity of its basic structure and of the fundamental concepts upon which it is based will make it a useful guide for other USAINSCOM personnel who are required to take the Gateway training or work with Gateway materials.

nice, that’s where a disguise comes into play. might i recommend some form of coat and funny glasses

drunk and sleeping at 3pm. i’m making a pizza with friends in a couple hours. i’m going to bring a ziplock bag of pickled jalapeños. i’ll think of you as i sprinkle them uponst

should i get a duesenberg les trem? i think so but i’m just not sure

maybe you can roll them over all at once like you’re doing a piano glissando. the little richard of grilling

Yeah that’s definitely the feeling i was getting

i haven’t been on a ton for a few weeks. not for any real reason or anything. i mean i guess i went disc golfing a week ago and attempted to leap over a large fallen tree at full sprint, immediately tripping over it and straining like several muscle groups in a gallant act of physical comedy, causing me to yet again make uncomfortable eye contact with the passage of time and subsequently sleep more than average, but basically I’ve missed a lot of the federation drama. it strikes me though that what I’ve seen from some of these dog shit instances reminds me so much of being the oldest employee at buffalo wild wings and hearing the literally still in high school teenagers talk about politics. I’m sure a lot of people have their own versions of this but the crap job i had before covid is my greatest exposure to people born after 2000. many people in this age group are cool as hell (like any of them who are on hexbear), just not any of the ones i worked with. i think all I’m really saying is a: I’m kind of surprised kids know or care about lemmy or b: that so many adults express themselves like children in this fairly bizzare space. also I’m drunk as shit so if this is a bad post i cannot be held accountable but if it’s an okay post then naturally i deserve all the credit. anyway federating seems like it’s been pretty funny so far. respect to everyone that’s been dunking on the losers and as always

Lmao fuck that mod and fuck whatever posts those comments were responding to
