Just another head in a seat. I grow food crops and other plants like a normal person, and I grow cannabis like a mad scientist. Psychedelic advocate, anti-war, environmentalist. 2nd-generation deadhead :stealie:

Apologies for double posting this image but:

Does anyone know any businesses in the Ventura County or San Fernando Valley areas which offer custom wood CRC work? Where I can just send them a file and get it machined?

Everywhere seems like they offer metal only even though I'd expect wood to be easier to work with. And I want to make them ~2ft which is a bit too big for the LA library maker space I think.

Can't decide if I should block the threads.net domain or not.

If I can view content generated by users in the corpoverse with 0 odds of encountering the advertisements which fund those corporations, doesn't that mean that the corporation is working for me for free? Doesn't that mean they're losing?

What arguments do the good people of Mastodon have in favor of each position?

@psyentist@heads.social avatar

I love trip hop but it seems like such an underdone genre. Does anyone have any recommendations that aren't Portishead, Massive Attack, Faithless, or "Six Underground" by the Sneaker Pimps?

I revoke my last sentiment, Rebel Moon is really really bad.

It looks cool but it's really, viscerally un-good. The villains are just pure evil with no motive or nuance or really even attempts at self-justification. No thought whatsoever beyond "make them look fascist and do bad stuff". Dialogue feels like a bad young adult novel. Not good! Not good!

Still going to watch it all because I'm compelled to watch all scifi in existence

@mrcompletely I just started it last night and it's incredible. I love the bio technology or... whatever you would call the way they use the wildlife

@psyentist@heads.social avatar

Are you from California? Do you want to be able to walk into a store and buy LSD, or extract DMT in your backyard with no legal concerns?

Or perhaps you aren't into all of that, but recognize that people shouldn't be threatened with violence and incarceration for connecting with nature and themselves?

Not the biggest anime watcher ordinarily but this show is the coolest thing I've seen in a bit. Very psychedelic animation but in a unique way.

Let's talk Anger. Anger is a normal human emotion. Women are often taught to suppress it. Men are often taught it's the only emotion they are allowed to express. Anger that is fleeting, nothing wrong with that, but what about the anger that stays? Anger that doesn't fade means something, it's a propellant. It pushes us to change. If we don't change, and we stay in it or we refuse to acknowledge it, it starts to destroy us from the inside, our health, our contentment.

What has anger meant in your life? How has it affected you in the past? How does it affect you now?

@RickiTarr Living in the "land of the free" with one of the highest per capita incarceration rates, hearing that "slavery was abolished" when slaves are still used to fight wild fires in California and elsewhere, hearing that we have "religious freedom" while committing a felony by consuming a fungus likely used by my Irish ancestors (and which I should have full access to even if that's not the case), viewing nature as the closest thing to a real God and watching that God get killed every day.

@RacerX @RickiTarr That may be true of interpersonal resentment, but righteous anger can change the world for the better. If you ask me, that's something to cling to, not let go of.

Kids walking up and asking "what band is that?", older neighbors walking up and saying "Play Sugar Mag!", families standing on the sidewalk watching the show. 💀⚡🎃 Strangers spooking strangers, happy Halloween!

Inspired by the Touch of Grey music video by the Grateful Dead.

I promise I'll upload a video to the Fediverse, but that requires me editing a video. So take a brief step into the corpoverse then come back here: https://www.instagram.com/reel/CzFhjbELuJq/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

Two skeletons stand on the lawn, looking like they're both having a good time. One holds up one hand in a peace sign while the other leans backwards.
Halloween versions of Stanley Owsley's Marching Bears are posted on a grass lawn as wooden signs. A skeleton bear, a ghost bear, a witch bear, a Dracula bear, and a Frankenstein bear. Orange, green, and purple lights are strung on a bougainvillea plant above the bears and along the house behind the bears.

@mrcompletely Thank you thank you! Two generations of deadheads working together :stealie: Can't claim credit for the concept but I had a ton of fun helping

@mrcompletely@heads.social avatar

You can see we take the theme very seriously in these parts. I just added the pair o Jacks to the luminescent yard installation after getting a few dry days free to work on them. In the wide shot it looks like maybe the skeletons are dancing towards the small pumpkin, perhaps in assistance and solidarity, or perhaps not

A wide shot, showing five glowing skeletons to the right of the pumpkins

Where I speak some advantages Signal has over the bigger richer rest of tech:

“We don’t have to be full of shit. We’re not a surveillance company. I’m not trying to pretend Facebook is good. I don’t have to toe a party line that is divorced from reality”

@psyentist@heads.social avatar

No later than October 12th, we will know whether California will be decriminalizing the possession, cultivation, and sharing (NOT sales) of non-synthetic DMT, psilocybin, and mescaline. This specifically does not include peyote.
