How did your subsequent attempts go? I have asthma, but I occasionally like to indulge. Making eliquid to vape would help to not activate an asthmatic response.

Thanks!

I'm about to do a google search on Smolov Jr. That's a new one to me. Could you or anyone else also list some basic descriptions of it please? I'll add a link if I find something that looks reputable.

Edit:

Here is the link...looks good.

Saving this post to review again later. Looks like solid stuff! Thank you for the tips! Keep up the strong work 🤗

LazarusRevives  ·  2832 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: I did the heavy thing!

I had not even considered the width of the bench I have at home until you said this! I think that may actually help. Maybe a bit of thick foam board for some moderate support that doesn't limit range of motion. Hmm. I'll also try out the rotations and get myself some bands. Thanks for the tips 👍🏻

LazarusRevives  ·  2835 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: I did the heavy thing!

Yes!! Evee. Good work on both counts. I need to get my lazy butt in the gym again. How did you go about building up? I need some suggestions on weak shoulders...they tend to pop when I lift anything over like 100lbs (50kg I think). Any suggestions on exercises for supporting muscle groups around the chest/shoulders? Thanks!

Oh wow. Thank you for bringing that post to my attention. I had tried to search for it, but I'm not good at searching Hubski yet...

LazarusRevives  ·  2845 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: Random and slightly scary question...

For the simple

purpose of randomness. But, say that a soul is some form of energy. Light can't escape a black hole and we can see it. We cannot see a soul...but I suppose we also cannot see the various color fields that [butterflies]( http://www.sciencemag.org/news/2016/03/butterfly-has-extreme-color-vision) allegedly see. Hmm...but I do see your point. I cannot prove a soul is real or tangible and only death will let anyone subjectively know.

LazarusRevives  ·  2845 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: Random and slightly scary question...

This is all steering sorta in the direction I had hoped. I was going to ask about dark matter actually. And super-position/uncertainty principles.

LazarusRevives  ·  2845 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: Random and slightly scary question...

HA! That was pretty funny. I probably will check into that.

LazarusRevives  ·  2846 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: How do I give badges?

Does this all still apply?? I'm not sure how these badges work or if they are even relevant. I think my wheel is all the way around....idk.

Thanks

for

your

help

:-)

LazarusRevives  ·  2846 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: Dad Appreciation Thread

Growing up wrong was a funny thing. My dad was a lawyer, which meant he knew how to argue like no other. I endured this for several years, because he was also emotionally unavailable. (I'm not getting on a couch here or anything, psychoanalysts o.o) Anyway, one day he told me that pizza was invented in the United States. I called bullshit (without the language) and I got the encyclopedia and proved him WRONG. BLAM. Of course I was sent to my room immediately because it pissed him off. I was 14 or so at the time I think. And I had something to prove, hormones and crazy experiences adding up constantly. But, now. Years later, and as an adult. With kids XD I say yeah. Thanks dad. You did what you knew how to do. You loved me when it all boiled down. I remember the time he saved me from being pulled out into the wild blue yonder of the ocean. ....an undertow struck and my friend and I were goners. But, he saved the day....and then bitched us out lol BTW. He was my best-man at the wedding on the 18th of June this year.

And here I was thinking that we had a meth epidemic on our hands. I wonder what happens when we legalize all drugs and remove the stigma associated with them? Oh wait. Portugal did that a while back you say? https://www.thefix.com/content/decrim-nation-portugal-ten-years-later

Hmm...okay. So, maybe we need to just isolate and lock up the addicts in jail or something. Oh wait, that makes them worse you say?

Excuse my sarcasm. It just gets to me that this information is out there and ignored by many.

That is way awesome. Instant downloads? That video was neat and not subliminal at all gooogle is the over lord worship and obey Ahhh just had a weird blackout. it will be amazing and I'll give them all my money. Lol but seriously though that is cool.

If you have read it, what is your opinion on the book, Non-Violence: The History of a Dangerous Idea by Mark Kurlansky? If you haven't read it. You might enjoy it...it is an interesting perspective and is fairly thought provoking.

I asked because of your rejection of deontology, which I can support. Sorry for the tangent...and thanks for the new vocabulary word: denotology.

Found this on Benedictine philosophy for free...thought I'd add it to the conversation.

Tabula Rasa. We are all born a blank slate and indoctrinated into whatever truth our family may hold, if they hold anything sacred enough to do that with. No one knows the truth that you are addressing here. There are many that claim to know the truth, but that is their belief. Belief and truth are not one and the same. But, in a certain sense one could argue that belief is truth subjectively. So, stand in your own truth and believe what you want to believe. I personally choose to build a door. One was built for me as a child, but I have opened it, walked through, ventured about and come back to the foyer since then.

One thing I have found to be true is that we are all hypocrites at some time in our life. This frequently upset me as I passed through my teens and on into my 20s somewhat. But, whether we choose to live in that hypocritical state of being constantly is up to us. Remember that polarization occurs when someone only hears or seeks information that supports their belief. In this situation they ignore negative feed back, which may cause them to pause and reassess how they see the world. This can be a scary process for some. I can't honestly say that I have perfected it in all subjects, but I do try to listen to all sides before forming my opinion.

Also, I like to hold on to the philosophy that I reserve the right to change my mind when new and better information presents itself.

Welcome to Hubski!!

LazarusRevives  ·  2851 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: In search of Mindfulness and parables..

Thank you for that! I do believe that is the one and the same. I had it confused because there were many years between me hearing it for the first time and now.

LazarusRevives  ·  2851 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: In search of Mindfulness and parables..

To add to the topic of mindfulness, it is frequently used in positive psychology. It literally means being mindful of your consciousness. It is a way of looking within and being present in the moment. A way to accept things as they are and life as it will be, without being overcome with the incredible nature of reality. It can be increased through practices, such as meditation and other techniques that help separate emotion and ego from experience.

Awesome. Very awesome! Thank you for sharing...sadly I don't have a badge for it currently. Or I don't think I do #newtohubski lol

LazarusRevives  ·  2869 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: Movie written by algorithm turns out to be hilarious and intense

That reminded me of a time when a friend of mine and I texted in person. We had one requirement: we could not look at the phone while typing. Some really random stuff came out of simple messages. Give it a try some time it's good for a laugh if nothing else!

LazarusRevives  ·  2870 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: R Passes SAS in Scholarly Use (finally)

It's interesting that this software is so jargon-ed that it can simply go by the letter R. Which reminds me of a video I watched of a lecture delivered by a statistician who was discussing how jargon can inhibit the accessibility of knowledge. He made several more interesting points...I'll try and find it so I can share. Can't seem to locate it now.

LazarusRevives  ·  2870 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: 176th Weekly "Share Some Music You've Been Into Lately" Thread

Really getting into chill step lately. Not a big fan of dubstep, but some is okay. Its odd to see the evolution of my musical tastes from country as a kid to pop, to rock...to hating sell out bands, to not caring and just enjoying melodies, to rock, to metal, to gypsy rock to randomness whatever I can try out.

Here are a few:

Gogol Bordello (Not chill step obviously)

Above & Beyond (Chill Step remixed)

Adventure Club (Chill step remixed)

Alestorm (A little taste of what I like to call "pirate rock" for ya. Love this song)
