2.A guide to homesteading while you're broke (in case that's your thing)

From the writers who brought you '$5 greenhouse' comes this nice little guide/blog for homesteading. If you've got the balls for this kind of thing then I say go for it. There is nothing more fulfilling then living off the land. I'm slowly going to implement this in my ranch home when we buy it. So here it is...... Homesteading when you're briz-oke and another piece of that pie

3.A video every young person to should see: Understand consent with stick figures and a cup of tea.

You know I joke a lot and have virtually no moral compass when it comes to comedy but let us take an aside. This is serious issue, 1 out of every 6 american (statistically speaking) has been a victim of an attempted or completed rape in their lifetime. That's alarming, seriously. The statistic doesn't stop at women either. Children are victims, men are victims. The point is mutual respect is a big deal in a world of conflicting perspectives and a value of life should be understood by everybody. Please show this and share this video or page or both, if only to raise some awareness. If you think about it, there is a chance this issue hits close to home in your family of friend circle. and learning can be as easy as a cup of tea!

Breaktime........enjoy this little chuckle

4. IRS dubs 'First Church of cannabis' a nonprofit

Full blown legalization or at the very least national decriminalization is going to happen in our lifetime. It will, no doubt. All the proponents and all the benefits are starting to outweigh the bogus studies, social stigmas, conservative thinking and flat-out smear campaigning attached to marijuana. So in the end this little win may be for nothing but it is a still a step in the right direction. Indiana will definitely be close watched when they open their doors. No matter how you feel on the subject morally it is a win religiously (if that sort of thing concerns you).

"The designation means donors can deduct gifts to the church on their federal tax returns if they itemize and the church is eligible for a property-tax exemption in Indiana. The organization has raised $10,905 in a gofundme.com solicitation but has not found a home yet.
 "What a GLORIOUS DAY it is folks," the founder and grand poohbah, Bill Levin, wrote May 26 in a Facebook post announcing the church's IRS approval as 501 (c) (3) charitable organization. "WE ARE 100% a LEGAL CHURCH. ... All say HALLELUJAH and SMILE REAL BIG! ... We are OFFICIAL!" -The source article

AND LASTLY!

5. Five Tibetan rites (at the very least it makes you feel great)

I started doing this about 5 days ago and already my body feels more flexible as well as less soar and achy. Even if it just the placebo effect I feel better as far as wellbeing goes, or at the very least this might just be budget physical therapy. Either way I'd recommend trying these.

Here's the source article that gives a run down on the 5 rites

6. Because who needs sleep: The lost disney UFO documentary

7. What a whacky, weird, wild and whimsical key.......IT BENDS!

Moving past things that aren't creepy weird aliens comes this practical little invention. The flexible key!

"As YouTuber bosnianbill explains in the video, picking this lock cleanly – i.e. without cracking it open – poses a considerable challenge. "This is not going to be a lock-picking video," he admits, "simply because I cannot pick this lock." It's bears mentioning that bosnianbill's YouTube channel boasts upwards of 50,000 subscribers, and hosts over 600 lock-picking videos. This is a man whose idea of "cross-training" is to pick locks while mountain biking, which should tell you all you need to know about his prowess.
 With a standard pick, "I can only pick the first pin," he says. "Beyond that, I can't get the pick up inside of there." When he wonders aloud how such a lock might be picked, his answer is to show us the key. "You push the key and you'll actually inject it into the lock, it goes around those curves, and then it actually works, very smoothly... so that's how you get in there." -The source article

8. Are we ever going to develop FTL travel (That stands for 'Faster than Light' in case you didn't know....yo)? 

I say yes.....I also say not anytime soon. But I do have hope, we still use the most primitive form of propulsion known to man, a technique first discovered for use on fireworks so we are long overdue. Just waiting for theory to move into reality. The whole 'you can't beat the speed of light' thing is a real ball buster but saying 'can't' has never stopped humanity before (I'm looking at you luna). Either way this IO9.com article explores this issues with some interesting depth. Click HERE HERE HERE HERE HERE HERE HERE HERE (or any of the here's of this here or that here)

10. A fun lil' Comic Site: LeastIcouldDo.com

To commemorate the Life of Sir Christopher Lee this comic was released. It it but a mere example of the awesomeness that is this website. Might I also recommend 'LookingForGroup' if you like RPG humor.

3. Breaking GoT news: 'the Mountain' is the strongest Viking in 1,000 years......IRL..for real

Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson, best known for playing Gregor "The Mountain" Clegane in HBO's Game of Thrones adaptation, just broke a 1,000-year old Viking strength record by carrying a 640 kg (~1410 pound) log across his back for five steps. According to Viking legend, the previous record holder was Ormur Stórólfsson, who managed to carry the log (which was actually the mast of a Viking ship) for three steps before breaking his back and being forced to quit. via Geekologie via the parent article

5.Florida Makes Off-Grid Living Illegal

(click here or here or here or really....anywhere in this little area to read the source article... blah blah)
Now typically when I read some junk like this the skeptic in me comes out..... and I look for reasons to debunk and scrutinize and I try to check my sources and fact check the site too....anyways.... I did a two day search over this article, probably about 4 hours total, and I couldn't find anything debunking this...... and that is alarming..... normally you see something like this and it is blow out up context or just fearmongering but as far as I can tell......not this time. spread the word. shareholders and CEOs dont want your independence.

9. I may have already posted this, but just in case......'The Mushroom/LSD Experience Explained & Explored'

"Anyone that has tried a psychedelic drug know that it’s impossible to fully explain the experience to someone who hasn’t tried one. The entertainment industry completelymisrepresents these experiences with dragons flying out of people’s faces and walls melting into nothing, which never occur even with strong doses. So, here is my best attempt at explaining the psychedelic experience."

Article Mega-post: EVERYTHING MUST GO

Over periods of time I accumulate articles and things that peek my interest or things to talk about and/or weigh-in on. Every time I hunt for knowledge, or lore, or fact or fiction I bookmark my entries so I can come back to them at later times. MY hiatus was no different. I cataloged a decent amount of things both fresh and old. Hot topics and has-been discussions. Like this really cool Flower animation pictured above, I found that stumbling. I didn't know when or where or even how I was going to use it in the context of an article but here we are. So enclosed is a pretty Decent collection of Topics and such. Pick and choose what to persue but at least give all the titles a read.. It is pretty random afterall

So even in my absence of posting articles and what-not I was still perusing, searching, viewing, and cataloging future posts. I have an abundance of them so here is a Meta-post. It's The ocasional post containing a lot of posts....post. Let's get started!!!!
