DIRTYBENNY WRITES

 

I grew up indoctrinated into football and the NFL.  It is just another deception of this place.  The Nfl Has A License To Play Sports? The NFL, a major professional sports league in the United States and Canada, is considered a form of sports entertainment, with the primary focus being on competitive sports. Its legal status does not matter, as it is legal to fix the outcomes of sports in the US as long as it is for entertainment purposes and not for sports. The NFL has an Anti-Trust Exemption to the law granted to it by President John F. Kennedy, which allows the NFL to classify itself as “sports entertainment” business.  This classification allows the NFL to legally influence game outcomes, similar to the WWE, and can legally fix the outcome of games. The NFL’s media rights deal is the biggest in the U.S., at $111 billion over 11 years. In 2000, the NFL’s teams agreed that each team would license its trademarks and logos exclusively to a jointly-selected monopoly licens...

  What happens when you wake up to antinatalism after you've already had children? This episode is about the pain of realising you can't protect your children from suffering, can't control who they become, and can't stop them from making the same reproductive gamble you once made. A brutally honest conversation about parenthood, regret, antinatalism, religion, DNA, conditioning, and the loneliness that comes with refusing to play along. Sometimes the hardest part of waking up is discovering that you woke up too late.

 

One of the things that I know for certain is that I do not know how others experience this place.  I argue that no one knows how anyone is experiencing this place at any point in time.  Moreover, even our younger self experienced a different reality than our present self.  Factors to be considered in confirming one's own subjective reality include 1. Age   I could never experience the world now as I did when I was younger.  My life experience has given me a different lens through which I interact with this place.  2. Painful experiences   Our main goal in life is to avoid pain, then to seek pleasure.  If I had a terrifying experience with a dog as a child, it colors my experience of meeting a dog today.  My reality is different.  3. Sex   A male and a female will NEVER experience this place similarly, especially in early years.  A male is interested in copulating with as many females as possible.  The female...

One of my favorite composers  Jean Sibelius.  I never realized how much he enjoyed alcohol.

I recommend skipping this first QOC video as I find it to be repetitive, tedious, and simplistic. On some level, I find Matt's take on the afterlife experience to be purposely deceptive.  I do recommend Stephen's video criticizing Matt on  his presentation.  As Stephen says, this realm is predicated on deception.  We have no reason to expect the afterlife to be different.  Just as we know not to interact with police here, with training, we know how to avoid bad circumstances.    By training on knowing what potential deceptions my exist in the afterlife, we will be prepared to avoid traps. 

 I have had a bountiful harvest of tomatoes and cherry tomatoes in particular.  In the past, I had struggled with making these Greek tomato fritters.  I have since learned to add an egg and extra water and flour to get the right  batter consistency. I now have the technique perfected.  The wonderful thing about these is it uses fresh herbs of basil, parsley, dill, and mint so they are really flavorful even without tzatziki. The deep frying did make a mess of my baking racks.  As I was struggling to scrub the racks, I thought I would check the internet.  Reddit usually gives me the best results.  Many folks said to dump a cup of ammonia in a garbage bag and seal the racks inside for 24 hours.  I gave it a try and my racks look brand new.  So....the internet is good for something.
