Retired git on Colorado’s Front Range. I take photos of birds and critters and flowers and mountains and skies I was a failure at that other place. My only followers were apparently pornbots. Photos are my own. Jokes and memes, not so much. I will boost alt-texted photos. Avi = me & wife 50 years ago. https://justmytoots.com/@qurlyjoe@mstdn.social searchable Striving inconsistently to be inconsistently inconsistent.

Putting sensory deprivation tank on my bucket list. Anyone need anything from the other dimension? (Will not kidnap people)

I would like to suggest a slight, but significant difference to your bucket list, if you don’t mind. Rather than the term, sensory deprivation, I prefer sensory isolation. This was the original name for the tanks Dr. John Lilly proposed. The tanks do not deprive you of your senses, but instead isolate them from external stimuli, essentially allowing your brain/mind to generate its thoughts from purely (almost) internal processes. A slightly gentler way of looking at it, I think.

An with all the smoke and mirrors of statistical and analytic processing of the best of them, but based solely on the complete corpus of Shakespeare’s writings.

Schadenfreude is complicated for me. It seems like a really dark way to find pleasure? I mean I get it, no doubt, I just feel like indulging in it too much isn't healthy.

As humans, we have a sense of justice. It’s rooted—or conjoined with, in some sense—a sense of agency, both our own and that of other beings. A common definition of justice is something like, you get what you deserve. Religions preach that in various ways. Karma, heaven and hell, that stuff.
Schadenfreude, imo, is a celebration at seeing justice served, irl, in real time. Slap-stick mimics justice, but skews it in several dimensions. It can be harder to decode sometimes.

Wow. I’m guessing, from what looks like blue sky at upper left, that this is actually a color photo, which is always so cool. Outstanding.
