Nowadays it seems that so many people are allergic to different things and medicines. But what caused this? Was this always inherent in our genetics or was it cause of the chemicals we have been pumping into our species

If things were done differently, would the end still be the same?
intervention:
People should focus less on what’s going wrong and more on what’s going right

Does International Relations kind of prove that moral absolutism is possible?
But then if moral absolutism is true, then doesn’t that undermine the lifestyle of living your person exactly the way you are, no constraints set on you by society?
But then doesn’t that undermine the life attitude that you should live with no constraints to your philosophy or mindset?
Because even in...

just the thought of a baby being born from a mother whose body is laced with toxic chemicals makes me sick
we managed to fuck up one of the most innocent and beautiful aspects of life
the creation of it.
we were never meant to be like this
a species which ruined itself
did you know that if we packaged and sold the average woman’s breastmilk, it wouldn’t get past food standards for the...

To the people who say they know someones soul, they’re every action and every thought

its beyond our comprehension

you can never know someones soul

Support the small-scale producers of foods
Be that local, or organic, or whatever, avoid eating the products of the large-scale corporations
Why?
Because those corporations know that their foods are unhealthy, but because of previous profit-making when no one knew that they’re poisoning them, they can sell their products much cheaper than others
They make food for the flavor and...

When we’re born into a country, we basically sign a contract/agreement that says ‘We will give you all our information and accept all your terms and laws and rights for your benefits (public sector) and global international relations

If all matter is basically energy manifesting itself in other forms, if you had the means could you absorb ALL the energy in an object purely so that no matter remains? How much energy would you get from trash?
Or could this be a savior to the environmental crisis
If this technology existed, we could absorb the energies in non-degradable and toxic chemicals and convert it into energy
If only...

You know that troll meme that went by before? The one where they’re out at like 3am and one guy says something about needing to do something tomorrow, and then the troll says ‘dont you mean today?’
No, its not fucking today. He needs to do that shit tomorrow because this day still hasn’t ended because he didn’t go to sleep and wake up.

Why is it so hard to find relationships that last
Real relationships, where you can be gone for however long
And when you come back it’s as if nothing has changed.
Why are they so elusive?
Why is it so hard to reach that level of unconditional love?
Long distance relationships all fail
It’s so hard to put a pause on a relationship to focus on yourself
And know that you’ll...

You know, a lot of what you think you know you learned from someone else
I’d say maybe a good 75-80%
While I love learning about these things in the world from experts who just blow my mind, at the same time I wish we were more independent with our learning. Learning through experience.
But that would limit the average human being to so little, judging by today’s society
but can...

What if money didn’t exist?
I came across this picture on my Dasbhoard
Imagine if we didn’t have money, we would know what we want so much easier
We’re stripped of opportunities. We can get whatever we want
Without this globalization and trading, whatever we wanted to get we had to get ourselves
theres no currency.
there is only something you want and what you’re...

Fucking society today. Fucking money
With the discovery of coal, there’s just too much energy going around
Energy going into, im sorry for saying but honestly, the most fucking useless people in the world. Honestly some of these people, the world would be such a better place with them.
Think about it, if we never discovered fossil fuels
Where we had our energy limited.

When people talk about how the world has alternate realities and things like that
What if every single possibility of the world has already played out? Think about it. Why do we always linger on the decisions we were unsure of? Why do we think of what could have been? Maybe it’s because our soul knows that it was actually the better choice.

Paranoia - when you’re scared of something disrupting the the world from the way you wished it to be
What inspires us?
princeitaliano:
If there were no birds or fish, would humans have thought it was possible to navigate the sky and seas? Submarines, boats, and airplanes mimic their abilities. But what if these animals did not exist? Would our ingenuity have been creative enough to take us off the ground or underwater?

So I was chilling in my friends backyard and I saw this plain, ordinary brown bird fly onto the fence, looking around for bugs in the way that birds shift their heads so fast.
and then i suddenly needed to write things down
so i grabbed the pizza box and started writing
I thought it was normal
Plain
But as I kept looking the bird became more defined, more majestic

Possible movie / book idea
Hot woman vigilante who fucks up guys who try to roofie a girls drink at bars and stuff
Opening scene : Focus is on the roofie guy. we see him slip a pill into her drink. after some time he takes his own drink, and his vision blacks out similar to what would happen if you actually got roofie’d
then have him wake up like handcuffed or tied to a chair

So right now I’m reading about language and how different cultures recognize language (yeah that kinda got me thinking about thought no.10).
I just texted my friend “Do you have $40 of dankness?”
“Yes I doo”
“Do you have $40 of dank^2 as in top shelf?”
“Yeeee I know what dank means hahahaha”
Thus illustrating how I thought she might think,...

Do people from different cultures recognize people differently? One culture may look at the eyes or nose first when they attempt to recognize something. Do different cultures look at different facial features?
Or maybe an entirely different body part, or at least more likely to look at that part when they cannot determine facial features (ie far away). Do different cultures look at different...

So apparently, in psychology today I learned that stressed parents who conceive a fetus while under the affects of stress expose their fetus to hormones related to stress.
So basically the fetus grows up feeling stressed.
Dutch Famine survivors, who were children, show a lot more health problems compared to the norm, such as higher risk of quick anger and bi-polarism.
Can this explain why...

What came first? The singing bowl or the religious belief of the power that it holds?
What if they simply found the bowl and its ringing sounds and created some kind of religious background for it?
That means their part of their religioin is based off the material
Or did they find a pre-existing religious concept that fits the singing bowl and tied the two together
Implications : Where...

What if we ate only what was from the host environment?
What if babies in their developmental stage have some sort of developmental boost depending on the specific chemicals that are unique to the host environment? Would they create some sort of beneficial relationship that only occurs if you grew up with those compounds?
Additionally, it would help a lot with the environment by eating locally....

There is a lower percent of homeless people in China compared to the US. This can be traced to two different things (in my opinion).
The first one is the individualistic nature of US society and the collectivist nature of China. In China, there is a much stronger emphasis on family inter-connectedness. They can rely on their family for support, while in some US societies, their family may be...

When someone has a brainwave or invention, a certain part of the brain lights up or has activity.
Can you stimulate that part of the brain to induce that behavior again? If this works, you could do this on any kind of specialist and they will have new inventions or theories in their field of work. The potential is crazy
Assuming that it works, that is

I wonder if insect-eating bats knowingly risk getting hit by humans just to eat bugs flying above their heads?
Is there any another animal that flirts with Death just to eat or indulge in eating?
Or do they know that the percent of them getting hit is so small they disregard the low chance and do it anyway for big rewards

What if the world is symbolized by the singing bowl, assuming it’s filled with water?
When a smooth sound is created, the water inside presumably flows smoothly as well, symbolizing peace within the world
When a discorded sound is created, the water presumably becomes turbulent or disturbed, symbolizing strife / suffering.
Implications : Who creates the sound by that stirring...

If we do not take into account the technology of filmmaking and CGI in the production of all the Star Wars Movies, recall the stormtroopers in episodes IV, V and VI. they sucked ass at aiming. now realize that those stormtroopers were pretty much the same clones as the ones that beat the droids (and executed order 66) in episodes II and III
