Mainstream scientists are coming around to this possibility: non local consciousness.

Hospice nurses are chock full of similar stories.

Alas, no. I take that as meaning they have better things to do.

I have dreamt them, though, in dreams that feel more like visions.

This is an interesting place to begin:

Scholars "believe" it is extinct. Some say it was just misidentified.

I think when your time here is done, your obsession with things here is also over. At that point, I think (and hope) that you're more concerned with higher concepts, including the perspectives of others in a similar way.

Nothing is 100%. None of the evidence is direct. But there is a mountain of indirect evidence, more than enough to convict in a court of law. However, IMHO indirect evidence, even an infinite amount of it, asymptotically approaches a 95% saturation limit. Just my personal rule.

I have a lot of hesitations about Sam Harris, who has some glaring ethical blindspots. (Don't we all.) But in a contest between Him and Bret Weinstein, I have but one thing to say: Bret Weinstein can go choke on a bag of dicks.

‘WILL YOU LEAD IRAN?’

Frankly, if this comes as any surprise then you really need to start paying attention.

Timothee Chalamet disrespects opera and ballet? I knew there was a reason I never liked ratboy.

Just had some atop basmati rice with Guyanese achar, yogurt, and red onions. It was soooo good.

I have >90% confidence that human consciousness survives physical death. Don't ask why; that's a complicated conversation that social media is not equipped to contain.

But, as a result, I often wonder what my late parents are discussing with David Bowie.

Me, too. 😞

I regularly beat your ass

TIL about silphium, a supposedly extinct spice that was widely used in the Roman world. Apparently, it was similar to asafoetida.

Given its odour, asafoetida should really have two S's.

asafoetida is an acquired taste. also smells like ass. best not to play with it.

omig he will love this

Very similar. Except the only spice is turmeric, ginger is included, and the tempering includes, in addition to cumin seeds, asafoetida and red Kashmiri chili powder.

I love the projects that my 5-year-old creates for himself. Today after school he busied him by creating flags for Mexico, Belize, and Guatemala. He says he wants to do all the countries of the world.

I'm told my ancestors came from the Bihar region of India. So today I tried making a Bihari dal, including poi saag (Malabar spinach) that my mother grew, picked, and froze before she died last year. A delicious, nostalgic lunch full of family history.
