@Weareidiots22 @HistContent I think thats... part of the point. A way to weed out the weak and unlucky from the gene pool.

@HistContent Yeah but the natives hadn't figured out how NOT to hit the ground~just saying.

AJ Hackett launched the first commercial bungee jump in 1986 based entirely on centuries old indigenous technology. He watched footage of the Vanuatu land divers and replicated a practice the Sa tribe had perfected on Pentecost Island using simple jungle vines. A modern extreme sport is essentially a sanitized copy of an ancient Pacific yam harvest ceremony.

@AlphaSolanaGuy @shawmakesmagic You're a gift to your enemies.

The government is not going to allow women to vote, end of discussion. The government is not going to ban child labour, end of discussion. The government is not going to set working time to 5 days a week, end of discussion. The government is not going to free the slaves, end of discussion. Should I keep listing "the ends of discussion" wr had already?

The government is not going to tax the rich to give to the poor End of discussion Now let’s have a real discussion like adults on how to solve this crisis

@hot_cocoa_girl And then, there is over consciousness. No matter how hard you try believing in the inherit good of others, you're constantly disappointed. Then try again. But can still relate to people who just want to nuke it all.

Actually what if there are meaningful differences in the level of consciousness between different people

@delmonaco_joe @archeohistories As a man who has been with many a hot (and ugly) lady. I have to say, nothing about this looks sexual at first viewing. You and your fellow sexual deviants should keep your traps shut and stop sexualizing everything:

@archeohistories It may honor daily labor, but it also connotes sex. Churning butter is often laden with sexual metaphor. "Keep on churnin' 'til the butter comes Keep on churnin' 'til the butter comes Keep on pumpin', make the butter flow Wipe off the paddle and churn some more…"

Tibetan Butter Churning Dance, a traditional folk performance that honors the daily, labor-intensive process of making yak butter, a crucial element of Tibetan life. Originating from daily household chores, the dance mimics rhythmic churning motions, symbolizing prosperity, unity, and communal joy, often performed during festivities like Losar... The dance stems from the traditional method of making yak butter using a long wooden churn, a task requiring thousands of strokes. Yak butter is not only food but also used for fuel and in butter lamps at monasteries to symbolize wisdom. Dancers in colorful attire, often in a circle, use choreographed, energetic movements to simulate the pushing and pulling of the plunger in a butter churn. It is widely performed during the Tibetan New Year (Losar) and other celebrations, representing gratitude and the preservation of culture. It represents the blending of daily survival with art, focusing on community spirit and harmony. Yak butter is essential for making traditional Tibetan Butter Tea, made from tea leaves, yak butter, water, tsampa (roasted barley flour) and salt. The history of tea in Tibet dates back to 7th Century CE, during Tang dynasty. However, butter tea did not become popular in Tibet until about 13th Century, time of the Phagmodrupa dynasty. According to legend, a Chinese princess married a king of Tibet which later helped establish trade routes between China and Tibet. These trade routes brought tea into Tibet from China. Later, butter was added to the tea that was brought from China as butter is and was a staple in Tibetan cuisine. By the 8th Century, it was common to drink tea in Tibet. In 13th Century, tea was then used in Tibetan religious ceremonies. Today, butter tea is still prevalent in Tibet, and Tibetans can drink up to 60 small cups of the tea every day. Today, this ceremonial dance based off of Tibetan tea culture. It also may speak to the lesser known Butter Tea Ceremony. While the ceremony is rarely practiced anymore it still takes place in a handful of monasteries, including one in Gomar Gompa in eastern Amdo (“Butter Tea Ceremony”). While the ceremony is not widely spread, it is still an important ritual for some Tibetans. During the ceremony, Tibetans gather in the courtyard while the tea is being prepared. Local boys often stand on the edge of roofs surrounding the courtyard and throw down bags of candy and treats, although this is not necessarily part of the ritual. Once the tea is ready, wooden buckets of butter tea are carried into the courtyard by back, each bucket holding nearly 30 liters of tea. Once the buckets are placed on the ground, individuals use ladles to distribute the butter tea to members of the community. This particular dance is so interesting because it seamlessly integrates these three practices in a modern context. The act of dancing is in itself a ritualized and sacred practice. Thus, creating a dance based on the preparation and uses of Butter Tea—a quintessential element of Tibetan culture—only further heightens the significance of tea customs by ritualizing the practice by means of dance. Drinking butter tea is a regular part of Tibetan life. Before work, a Tibetan will typically enjoy several bowlfuls of this beverage, and it is always served to guests.[citation needed] Since butter is the main ingredient, butter tea provides plenty of caloric energy and is particularly suited to high altitudes. The butter may also help prevent chapped lips. According to the Tibetan custom, butter tea is drunk in separate sips, and after each sip, the host refills the bowl to the brim. Thus, the guest never drains his bowl; it is constantly topped up. If the visitor does not wish to drink, the best thing to do is leave the tea untouched until the time comes to leave and then drain the bowl. In this way, etiquette is observed and the host will not be offended. © Discover Tibet #archaeohistories

@PlineTheBinary @EldenDryad @uncle_deluge Fair on the "no clear culture" similar to U.S. Whats your first name and ethnicity? And by ethnicity, there better not be more the one drop of something else. Otherwise, you're just a confused Euro-mutt.

@EldenDryad @uncle_deluge Bs, in mexico they even have arab names like Omar that are extremely common People just pick whatever name bc it's just a fucking brown melting pot with no clear culture at this point

How did old Anglo-Saxon names like Edgar (ēad "rich" + gār "spear") and Oscar (ōs "god" + same spear ending) make their way to Latin America

@CWingUexkull "Installation artist, blackhat hacker, or vintage motorcycle restorationist." Just stop with your puritan bullshit. Only Sailors, Soldiers, and Outlaws should sport tattoos. I'll even entertain artist getting in on this action, but they better be starving artists.

@tasogare_plus There is a lock on the money box. Lets see what happens when you remove it. 😏

日本には野菜や果物を無人で売ってる販売所がある。 箱に野菜が入っていて、隣に料金箱があるだけ。 監視カメラもなければ、店員もいない。 でもちゃんとお金は入ってる。 🥦🍆🍅🥒🥕🌽

@AMAZlNGNATURE I'd be tempted to throw on a motorcycle suit and helmet, then jump into the fray to see how long I last.

Imagine driving home and seeing two kangaroos fighting like this in your yard.

@nextgenkarel @ruima In the west, men rarely wash their hands after pissing, smush their poop with toilet paper, and wear shoes indoors.

@ruima in the west with the import of the third world especially in office we are facing the same issue toilets always super dirty its unbelievable

It’s really difficult to explain to visitors that Chinese people, on average (maybe not the much younger first tier city dwellers), prefer squat toilets for public use (seated are great for home). They think sharing a toilet seat is very dirty. It’s probably at least in part because contagious infectious diseases were such an issue even just thirty years ago. Toilet seat covers help, but most (especially older) people would just rather not be anywhere near where someone else had placed their bare rear end. It’s very hard even today to find public “regular” seated toilets in second tier cities and below (or even in outskirts of first tier cities). In the third tier city we were in, we couldn’t find any except for a fancy mall’s handicapped bathroom.

@sidewayskoyote @Jbn3ex "Free roaming glory days." "Off your property." You guys are so close to getting it, it's kinda funny.

@Jbn3ex uhhhhh. barbed wire is the only way you are allowed to keep the cattle OFF your property (for example, arizona) and generally Nevada is fence out for everything except bulls and dogs (fence in) I'd be pissed, too.

Heres a technology that could make obsolete the great blight of the American west (barbed wire fencing) and return us to our free roaming glory days. As expected conservatives are mad about this

@pbdmcniel @shagbark_hick "As a manual for your tenants." So like, offsetting costs through free labor? Or was your plan to hand this to them along with an eviction notice (as an act of kindness)?

@shagbark_hick I started working on such a book, just as a manual for my tenants. I was better at being poor than them. Though in their defense they were more committed than I was

Ironically, I think I could make a lot of money just writing a book entitled "How to Be Poor." Because this fellow is right, most people are TERRIBLE at being poor, and the simple fact is that this "everyone's rich now" thing America's been doing lately might not last forever.

@Crawfish1924 @Robert_E_Kelly @LsfarmLw @AIPAC @RepBrecheen @repkevinhern @TomColeOK04 @RepFrankLucas @RepBice @SenatorLankford @KnoxieLuv Sure you are.

@Robert_E_Kelly @LsfarmLw I am former MAGA & 3 time Trump voter. I cannot wait for the day when ALL Republicans are shown the door. They can then take what’s left of their @AIPAC $$ and shove it up their asses. @RepBrecheen @repkevinhern @TomColeOK04 @RepFrankLucas @RepBice @SenatorLankford @KnoxieLuv

I love how the implication is that we should therefore rig the election, rather than, you know, stop doing illegal stuff MAGA can’t be out of power soon enough

@angertab @ColinK1563 My lowd. Spare me, Mr. Badass. At most, you lived in the suck for 3-6 months at a time (more like, 24-72 hours, tops). With ample supplies and ammunition. I am not saying the Navy isn't gay, but you never had to live on scraps for extended periods.

@ColinK1563 facts

First off, I highly doubt this is true. Second, I've spent years of my life at war. At times, I was lucky to get hot chow. I once ate soggy, sweat-filled flat bread off the back of an Afghan who carried it up a hill to my position after we cleared the area of enemy fighters. I've drunk salty water provided to me by Iraqis when we ran out. I've gone months without showering, a warm bed, and worn socks so disgusting that words can not describe them. If this is the biggest complaint our military service members have, they are doing pretty damn good.

@CRIXUSwasHERE @USNavy @BardixdDixon @USNavyCNO They're cooks. On a boat. Tell me you never cooked a day in your life without telling me. Particularly on a boat.

Fresh meals. Full service. Mission ready. Sailors aboard USS Abraham Lincoln and USS Tripoli continue to receive regularly prepared meals at sea—no interruptions, no shortages.

@AncientArgonaut @USNavy @USNavyCNO A snapshot in time. Bullshit propoganda. A mixture of both.

@USNavy @USNavyCNO What was this then? You can't be military ready with an empty stomach.

@prestonstew_ Why is he by himself in an open field? What impact will killing him have on the overall war? I am getting deserter (Russian) / murder (Ukranian) vibes. Honestly, I hope both sides win.

@GHHILL1911 Sounds like serving on a carrier is a luxury. How do submarines manage?

A US Aircraft Carrier has a large crew that has to eat. They serve 3 meals a day plus MidRats at a cost of about a million dollars a month. That's just the cost of the food alone. Then there's the expense of that logistics train, and the salaries of about a hundred sailor Cooks. Food has to be brought out to the ship on the regular. The ship itself is running on Nuclear, so it only needs to be refueled once every ten years. But the crew needs that fresh food brought in with bankable frequency. Look at it this way... They go through about 1600 pounds of chicken a day. Every day. That's just the chicken. CHICKEN! We're talking about 500,000 pounds of food a week. The logistics of operating an aircraft carrier at sea are just staggering! And nobody is better at this than the US Navy. This is why we have Carriers while other nations have A Carrier. If. If they have a carrier at all. Most don't.

@AnalyticaCamil1 You get one comment: "Supply Chain." *mute*

… is saying that supposed to make things better or worse? Where are the buns????? They’re in a region famed for countries that produce excellent bread.

@RichardHanania I resent your disparaging of alcoholics. We can't all be besotted soyboys, like you.

The Atlantic reports that Kash Patel is drinking so heavily that meetings need to be rescheduled and his security detail has trouble waking him up. At one point, they had to request SWAT team equipment because he wouldn't answer the door. Some think that his drinking is responsible for major blunders like when he put out inaccurate information about the Charlie Kirk investigation. With the war in Iran, government officials are wondering what happens if there's a terrorist attack and he's too drunk to respond. Patel fired members of a counterterrorism squad working partly on Iran, and instead spends his time demanding that FBI merchandise look more "fierce." Asked to comment, he threatens to sue the reporters. Kakistocracy. Learn that word.

@0bservationism @endofitall2035 @thinkingwest Semantics, but keep telling yourself that.

@PVTJoeSnuffy666 @endofitall2035 @thinkingwest For it to be conquest you’d need to actually fight us for it, otherwise yes, stolen.

You could spend a lifetime exploring all the castles in Europe and still only scratch the surface
