I’ve seen similar posts before with like dark souls bonfires or cutesy photos or cozy fantasy stuff, but this? This is art. It’s so visceral, so raw, it’s positively dripping with the juices of a reality most people only dream of and yet completely and totally exists in this world. It slaps you upside the head and locks eyes with you, snapping you instantly out of whatever funk, demanding your attention and ordering you to double check your eyes. Yes that is a shotgun, yes they are gesturing to you specifically, and no it isn’t a gameplay screenshot or weird meta post or even a meme. There are no filters or edits on this. It’s real, realer than most things are on the internet. Someone got dressed, brought their rifle, and took a photo out in the wilderness. That fire? Real. That breakfast? Real. That person probably ate it. Shit, they might have literally shared it with someone. That someone could be you. Not in a “imagine you’re in this fictional setting” way but in a “if things were different I could genuinely, actually, be there, in the snowy wood” way, a way that drags you hand and foot into the imagination, into wondering what it’s like, to be there. The gentle, non-threatening invitation is starkly contrasted by the weapon in hand, a clear reminder of the possibility and reality of violence, and yet you somehow just know that no harm would ever come to you here. They’ve accepted you, just as you are, and all that’s left is to accept their invitation. Warm eggs. Bacon. Coffee. A simple fire, a real one, not one for show or aesthetics but built for function and warmth. And probably the best conversation you’ll ever have in your life.
While the pozzolanic reaction is of fundamental importance,” said Monteiro, Professor of the Graduate School in civil and environmental engineering, “our findings suggest that carbonation over a long period of time also enhances the durability of concrete and can help it seal cracks as it ages.”
Thank you. That was a cool read. We squander this amazing organ. I'm with you that it's hard to find all these concepts in one place. Sapolsky's lectures captures some of it.

So jealous of the countries that have kept train systems in place

Getting rid of this and getting the u.s. to finally do to metric are my two low bar societal dreams before I die
I'd say we are born chuthulu moreso than evil

I see the occasional oldensmut and that's about it
I was wondering if this land would be forested were it not for people, or is it inherently like this?
Video's no longer available. Set to private. tl;dw?
That sums it up. OP's friend will probably be fine. It's just, if not they're not, it's really gonna suck
Yeah, "near perfect" is a stretch. I'm glad that the series is done.
Wonder if that will in fact become a thing
wtf
Sure he does
It's called Truth Social

that's about the most uplifting news I've seen in while
