Is there any more uplifting sport than hiking? Everyone is pleasant, nothing but good energy and very little succubi.

Is hiking substantially different enough from walking to not fall under that thread?

I'd like to think so, hiking involves walking fast on an incline, for substantial distances and for long periods of time.
I personally consider them to be two different categories.>>68818

Sometimes I go for a walk to a small forest nearby while being very drunk. I think I look comical while doing this, kind of like The Call of the Wintermoon video. But it's enjoyable, very quiet. Spring arrived and birds appeared too.

What are some hobbies that don't involve consuming anything? You purchase a 1 time item and very rarely if ever have to replace it. Learning yo-yo tricks would be a consumptionless hobby in this case. There are obviously thinks like whistling or playing the spoons too. The idea is it has to make as little foot print as possible while being something you can develop and grow at. Drawing wouldn't count because you need paper.

Depends on the mask and the general setup.

Like if you are cutting/grinding stuff wet then there would be very little dust. It which case a mask might not even be needed.

But if you were powdering silica in a hermetically sealed room with not even the faintest of air flow, while wearing a ski mask, bro you gonna die.

depends heavily on the particle size

if you are chiseling and carving stone by hand outside you dont need anything crazy

if you are sawing, grinding, cutting, etc and producing dust, then you need an air filter and dust collection and a mask tbh

for wood if you work by hand, you can cut, saw, drill, chisel, etc and you dont need a mask. the moment you use powered tools though you need dust collection and air filtering and sometimes a mask

i built a shelf outside today and the dust was so bad i had to walk away after every cut and wait for it to settle. this was with a breeze too

Provided you have accessible to you an open area, get a sling and throw rocks.
It's a lot of fun, there's teriffic room to improve through distance and accuracy, and you feel good in nature.
You're welcome.
If you still feel unfulfilled, attend the TLM.

I need to find interesting topics to read about as all I have is my E-reader, I like history and a little bit of philosophy (I find philosophy to be mostly cognitive masturbation, please don't hate me) but it's hard to find interesting topics to read about and for me and a lot of the books are tedious to read and full of boring informations, Please give me suggestions of topics to read about, anything goes, I am willing to try anything since I am dying of boredom here, sadly I was never able to enjoy reading fiction despite having tired countless classics, I can't even explain why, it just bores me despite the fact I can enjoy films or TV shows on rare occasions.

One thing that completely captivates my interest and imagination is reading about genocides. Some might perceive it as an immature morbid fascination, but for me I think genocide connects aspects of history, politics and human psychology I find interesting.

I collect certain things related to genocide. I have a ‘srbosjek’ - a Serb cutter. The hand knife was used to cut the throats of Serbs during the genocide by the Croatian Ustasze.

I have always thought that beneath the veneer of human civility and empathy, most humans are under certain conditions capable of psychopathic acts of cruelty. Humans bend to social pressure with ease and our empathy is not as strong as it is performed. Lord of the Flies is an understatement.

I visited Cambodia and was really blown away by the history there. The ideology of the Khmer Rouge was fascinating. The number of people that took part in the genocide and only 3 were prosecuted.

Look at the Ukrainian genocide, it's like nature itself has decided that ukrianians are to be done away with

If their men aren't being kidnapped and sent to the meat grinder one by one, their succubi are mixing with browns and breeding themselves out of existence, it's interesting to watch

It seems almost fateful, the only lesson I can take away from it is that a nation divided is as good as conquered, if the ukranian military would've grouped together to do away with the puppet regime they'd have had a chance at survival

Stop watch BBC porn then. Majority of those succubi who decide to marry foreigners choose white. And regarding migrants, the plans are for Africa and poor Asian countries. The latter ones are not that brown.

Puppet regime of Muscovite ministers and pro-Moscow president was overthrown in 2014. Right now is 2025. Or are you one of those pol schizos?

Dianna Troi was a mistake. Empaths were a mistake. I fucking hated every second that bitch was on the screen. Riker was also a shit character. Other than that it was quite good and enjoyable. I wish they would have done Star Trek Captain Worf. I always liked Worf. The stuff they did later in the series really fleshed out his character and I would have liked to see him as the lead. What we got after that was just disappointing. Janeway wasn't terrible, but just not very interesting as was the show itself. It was like TNG just watered down. Then Enterprise was just shit. I didn't get very far with that one. Couldn't force myself through it.

I'm currently watching Star Trek the original series after almost a year without touching any Trek at all. I needed the abstinence to enjoy this stuff again. Just finished watching Shore Leave from the first season. It's a decent episode, a rather quaint idea but way too padded out. I won't be commenting every single episode here, but will try to make a post summarizing my thoughts on each season.

I've created a language years ago. I picked up words from english, german, latin and indo-european root words.
Here's some phrases:

" Bheheud ser, ek heer "
(tomorrow night, I'd be there)

" Nw Þonder "
(there's is a storm)

" Nw Þonder, ek ser bheud, sekzuheud "
(there's a storm today, I'll see you tomorrow)

" Ði mann sek ði deer "
(men and animals are different)

" Deer sek mann but Þey anwdeer und Þey mann ajwmann "
(animals aren't human but are living beings)

now here some words I've created so far:

If you can't do shit on your own, you can't learn a language. It's just that simple. A professor isn't going to make you memorize 10,000+ words and slowly grind your way through dozens of books at a snailspace.

After Reading Fingerprints of the Gods and Magicians of the Gods, I wonder if it’s possible the existence of an ancient and lost civilization like those books described. I know a couple of books who give more evidence of that. 2 books written by the Spanish investigator Javier Sierra, called: En busca de la edad de oro and La Ruta Prohibida, if you want to read them. But, the only book I know who gives a serious proof of that is Hamlet’s Mill. That makes me think if the civilization is cyclical and the event that erase a possible civilization could happen again to us. Just think about it.

>In Venezuela there are many legends about spirits that haunt the roads, beings taken from our nightmares. Here in Venezuela, hearing about spirits, the dead and ghosts is a very important event. Children sit and pay close attention to the stories told by their parents, grandparents and other relatives. Many times, even the neighbor comes and tells you about the time he was in his house and things were moved or he saw someone who was never really there.

>In Cedeño, a small town on the road to Cumanacoa, Sucre State, Venezuela, it is perfectly normal to talk about Los Encantados


>The people of that town assure that they are beings in human form, usually very beautiful, with white skin and colored hair and eyes that reflect the skies and the water of the river. When the enchanted ones arrive to the rivers, deep pools are created, in which the water is fresh and crystalline and the entrance to their world is under the big rocks that many times hide subway caves that are portals, they have their own societies and take care of nature.


>But, don't be fooled. Los Encantados, they are not good… But they are not bad either. They protect what is theirs, nature. They can drown those who threaten it, as well as if they see a being with a pure soul they can take it to their world and no one knows why and for what. Sometimes people simply disappear while bathing in the river and they say they drowned, but they never find their body. It is the haunted ones who take them away. There have been times when the supposed drowned come back years later and talk about the enchanted ones and their thrones with snakes and cities out of fairy tales. I know of one case of someone who came back for a day. In those strange cases, they come, they tell their relatives that they have lived in that other world, in the enchanted world, and then you see them going into the river, never to return.

>While redcaps may be an innocent-sounding name for a mythical creature, this couldn’t be further from the truth. These malignant faeries of Scottish folklore aren’t creatures you’d want to come across while exploring the hidden grottos and glens of Scotland. Luckily, if you’re not planning to visit one of Scotland’s ruined castles, you’ll probably avoid these little villains.

>But what is a redcap exactly? Well, that’s exactly what this article aims to inform you about. We’ll cover everything you need to know about redcaps, from their characteristics, stories involving redcaps, and where you can find them today.


>A redcap is a type of malevolent, murderous spirit or faerie that originates from the Scottish Borders. They’re also sometimes called Redcombs or Bloody Cap (you’ll understand why in a bit). According to Border folklore, redcaps would kill regularly, using their fingers armed with talons and long prominent teeth


>A redcap mythical creature typically has a shorter stature with a thickset frame and eyes of a fiery red colour. They usually have very elvish or gnomish features, along with prominent teeth, skinny fingers, and grisly hair streaming from their head. The most iconic descriptor to instantly recognise a redcap is its large red caps (who would’ve guessed!).


>As the legend goes, these caps are soaked with their victim’s blood, giving it an eerie crimson hue. Sometimes, redcaps are also equipped with weaponry and armour, such as their iron-shod boots. Several stories describe their skinny fingers armed with heavy iron pikes or spears.

>Philip Schneider, was murdered.
>This footage is just before his dead.
>Philip Schneider was one of three people to survive the 1979 fire fight between the large Greys , US intelligence and military at the Dulce underground base.was found dead January 1996, due to what appears to be an execution style murder. He was found dead in his apartment with a piano wire wrapped around his neck.

>According to sources, it appeared that he repeatedly suffered torture before he was finally killed. Seven months prior to his death , Schneider did a lecture on the forces he had discovered at Dulce.

This brave man's final acts should not go unnoticed……………………..
A joint alien/U.S. military underground base exists, perhaps devoted to genetics. The theories regarding Dulce sometimes state that alien technology was traded for permission to engage in human and animal mutilations.

>A battle was said to have taken place there between aliens and humans, though the time of this alleged encounter varies from the 1970s to the 1980s. Some sources allege that horrific genetic experiments are conducted in lower levels of the facility (usually level 6 or 7, depending on the source); these levels are sometimes referred to as "Nightmare Hall."


>According to the legend, Project Aquarius (1966) was a plan for investigation of UFOs, carried out and funded by the CIA. Bishop (Bishop, 2005) notes that Bennewitz is the earliest source for the Project Aquarius tale. This project was slated to begin after December 1969 when Project Grudge and Project Blue Book were closed. In 1969, the base was built northwest of Dulce in joint agreement between CIA and aliens from space.


>The base is allegedly located on the Jicarilla Apache Indian Reservation. The entrance is on Mount Archuleta (or Archuleta Mesa). The base gets water and electricity from the Navajo River, and dumps waste water back into the same river. The U.S. government occupies the upper levels of the underground base, while the aliens control the lower levels.

Love walking in the woods. Sometimes I go for an hour, sometimes less. Luckily I live rurally so I usually don't encounter a single other person on my trips. I have some busted up hiking boots that I need to replace once I have money, I'd like to get some minimal trail shoes. I had some Nikes a long time ago where you could feel the little stones and shape of the terrain as you walked, I want that again. I usually don't take pics unless I remember to bring my old digicam.

I have been walking 3 hours everyday since October since I'm currently a NEET it is the best way for me distract myself and when I get home I normally take a nice hot shower lay in bed and nap for 2 hours.

Honestly I have seen a good different on my physical performance and body but the best to come out of this is really just not being so angry at the world so often. I love walking
