Beaver Creek, PA
After the pouring rain, the weather was nice 😊
But the water was too high and muddy 🙃
Still, it was soothing to spend some time along the creek with a fly rod in my hand during my son’s soccer practice 😉

If on Monday, Liberals win,
I will sleep for a week.
Aaaahhhh <soft sigh>
After the past year in (geo) politics,
what a lovely thought, eh?

if we could give people a tool to create their own ASAT, it could enable people to tailor their treatment in ways they may not otherwise be able to. i want to min/max the hell out of my ketamine protocol.
anyone know what i'm talking about? ping me! i'm fun and like to learn and need an expert. boosts OK!
Unraveling the Illusion: Marriage as a Modern-Day Matrix
cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ca/post/42948306 [https://lemmy.ca/post/42948306] > Marriage, often romanticized as a sacred union, can be viewed through a critical lens as a construct of the societal matrix that entraps individuals in a cycle of responsibility and obligation. This institution creates an illusion of maturity and stability, leading individuals to believe that they are fulfilling their roles as responsible members of society. However, this perceived responsibility often translates into a relentless pursuit of productivity, where individuals labor tirelessly to support a system that benefits the few at the expense of the many. In this sense, marriage can be seen as a mechanism that perpetuates a cycle of servitude, binding individuals to a life of work and sacrifice. > > The family unit, often seen as a source of love and support, can also serve as a breeding ground for conformity to societal expectations. Within this framework, individuals are encouraged to procreate, further entrenching the cycle of servitude. Children, from a young age, are indoctrinated into the values of hard work and obedience, trained to become compliant members of a system that demands their labor. This conditioning begins as early as three years old and continues into young adulthood, shaping their identities around the notion of being productive rather than empowered. As a result, many individuals grow up unaware of the true nature of their existence, believing that their purpose is to serve the matrix rather than to challenge or transcend it. > > Moreover, societal pressures to marry and conform to traditional family structures can lead to significant emotional and psychological distress for those who resist. Individuals who choose to remain single or pursue alternative lifestyles often face ostracism and judgment, reinforcing the idea that deviation from the norm is unacceptable. This societal enforcement creates a ripple effect, where one person’s entrapment in marriage leads to the coercion of others into similar bonds, perpetuating the cycle of compliance and servitude. In this way, marriage and family become instruments of social control, producing a generation of individuals who, often unknowingly, contribute to the perpetuation of a system designed to keep them subservient. > > Ultimately, the institution of marriage, while often celebrated, warrants a critical examination. It is essential to recognize the ways in which it can function as a trap, binding individuals to a life of obligation and servitude. By questioning these societal norms and exploring alternative ways of living and relating to one another, individuals can begin to break free from the constraints of the matrix, reclaiming their autonomy and redefining their purpose beyond mere productivity. In doing so, we can foster a society that values individual freedom and self-determination over blind adherence to tradition.
