So my dad has been ending every phone call with "stay dangerous" instead of "goodbye" for like six months now. We all thought he was just being a weird dad. Turns out he's been mishearing the ending of a podcast he listens to. The host says "stay curious" but my dad is slightly deaf in one ear. He's been going around telling his coworkers, my grandmother, and apparently his DOCTOR to "stay dangerous" this entire time. My mom only found out because his doctor called to check if everything was okay at home. My dad has now decided he likes his version better and refuses to stop. Yesterday he told a nun to stay dangerous.
3. Manifestation is absolutely true, shifting realities is true, astral projection… all real.
4.Quantum Immortality, it’s a theory that we never actually die, but right before we die, our consciousness gets shifted to another reality.
@NKira24 Your decision making should improve alongside your mechanical skills. For decision making, study an image for a minute, then draw it from memory. For mechanics, use a 5 minute timer. adjust if needed, but keep it challenging. 20 minutes a day for a month should do it.
@nanonano_me I've been one of the lucky few to have experienced maaya Sakamoto and S.K.I.N ( yoshiki, gackt, miyavi, sugizo) at anime expo in early 2000s. I'll always carry those amazing memories with me 🙏
Viste “Los Juegos del Hambre” y te pusiste del lado de la resistencia.
Viste “La guerra de las galaxias” y te pusiste del lado de la resistencias.
Viste “Matrix” y te pusiste del lado de la resistencia.
Cuando es ficción entiendes la tiranía, la opresión y el despotismo. Pero te niegas a verlo en la realidad en la que vives.
@DaveShapi Your identity is a collection of everyone you’ve met and everything you’ve experienced. But you won’t truly understand who you are until you strip away every role you’ve played and see what remains underneath.
Your visual cortex burns 44% of your brain's energy budget. Turning off the lights in the shower is the fastest way to slash that load to near zero.
Your brain is 2% of your body weight but burns 20% of your total energy. Visual processing alone eats almost half of that. Every photon hitting your retina triggers a cascade of neural signaling that demands oxygen, glucose, and ATP at rates higher than almost any other cognitive function.
When you kill the lights, you're removing the single largest energy load on your cortex. That freed-up metabolic capacity gets reallocated.
This is where it gets interesting. A 2022 study from the Laureate Institute for Brain Research measured what happens when you strip sensory input from anxious patients. High-frequency heart rate variability, the gold standard marker of parasympathetic activation, increased significantly compared to controls. Blood pressure dropped. Breathing rate fell. The nervous system shifted from sympathetic dominance to parasympathetic mode within minutes.
The warm water adds a second mechanism. Core body temperature rises during the shower. When you step out, temperature drops rapidly. That cooling signal triggers melatonin production and primes the circadian system for sleep. Layer darkness on top: no photons suppressing melatonin through the retinal ganglion cells, no blue-light signaling to the suprachiasmatic nucleus that it's still daytime.
The shower is doing three things simultaneously. Reducing cortical energy demand by eliminating visual input. Activating the parasympathetic nervous system through sensory reduction. Triggering thermoregulatory sleep signaling through the heat-then-cool cycle.
