It sucks down here, over the years it just gets worse and worse, first the forums split in two, then swamis gone, the all kinds of other crap.

I'm just tired of the cliques and everyone ignoring eachother
might as well be OTD
I remember when people here used to avoid ideological purism and actually learned from one another.

This is the balance. Like a person, yourself, the Shroomery goes through its own phases of being more in touch with what it should be, and goes out of touch with what it should be.
This is mostly because it is run by other humans, but everything in nature runs this course. And since we, us natural being, run this forum (the mass of us) it acts like a natural thing.
Thats why you can always apply a large mass of people (Like the whole of America) to just one person. If you look at the rises and the falls, the idea changes over time, the reverting to old ideas, it acts just like YOU do! A person!

I have no idea what you are talking about..... especially with threads like "Psychic Attack (spiritual)".
This forum has always been sinusoidal. (I truly think that is the first time I have ever used that word)

there's a lot here to view; the being and not being, the not being and being and the being and being amongst the haves and the have nots.
theres plenty of fun & recreation too.
but seriously you provide me with a better hyperlink and i'll check it out...
walmart is here to stay and so is the shroomery....
all of the treads have something to say, even the ones that say "THIS IS THE WORST TRAED AVAR". I haven't figured waht

one would have to admit that some of company of this forum houses some quite "undesirables"
but when is this ever been different,
but look, maybe its not this forum that went down hill, maybe one needs to take a strong look at what else has gone down hill,
maybe ones temperamental attitude has taken a nose dive, and ones impatience has taken its toll, then one will see, it was not the fault of anyone but ones inner desire, that was not quenched, for this is what causes suffering, and one may take its frustration out in negative manner that effect others to be negative as well, but see, and its like karma, because it comes in a wave, and one can recognize the pattern, whether one wants to acknowledge such dribble as a relevant fight, then be my guest, for others will have specific agendas and go on about their intended purposes,

One must understand, what happened is what happened, we can't blame
the inevitable on one particular puppet, see puppets do the biding of politics of previous generations, because their feeble mind can't grasp the bigger picture, their easily persuaded and influenced by this steadfast focus that needs readjusting, to get a clearer picture one needs to readjust the lens
but see hindsight is always 20/20, and we wonder if there wasn't an easier way to deal with such complications,
but it comes down to human progression, does the innate savage beast arise in man, or does he become civilized,
until one observes what Confucius recognized a long time ago, if the Utopian society isn't built from inner core of its citizens then the system will falter, no matter what the circumstance is

I don't see anything in hindsight, I moved all my money into gold and eafe funds. Recently i've gone 60/40 w/ the S&P and now I thinking I'll go w/ T's till november.
you can see anything you want but if you don't have money, there ain't no tomorrow.......................

so your more consious about stock game, I see..
making interest, sparked ones interest
is this where tommorrow is comming from..
60/40 I'm guessing is the rate of interest,
not quite sure what T's are, is it something that creates leverage,
but I might ask why tommorow is so hedged off monetary concepts, I
understand money is essential in the game of survival, but usually
the ones that survive are the ones that don't care, such worries can give one a heart attack, which would making worrying a pointless investment,

Well, to be honest, I think things started deteriorating in this forum when the Soviet Union dissolved... well, that, and also after the planet Jupiter exploded in that fireworks accident... I think that lack of gravitational pull had a serious, adverse effect on the posts here... 
I can't help feel at least somewhat, partially responsible for that accident, as well. I mean, I told him to not do it, but I think he had lost his mind years before that... perhaps I shouldn't have given him that Saturn missle battery... 
 Peace.

I would hate to exist in a reality where there was nothing left to learn.
I'm quite glad to be learning new things every day.
even books I've read a million times hold new meanings which are waiting to be unlocked and explored by my imagination and reason.
Indeed, it seems like every time i do something, its the first time.
