An early bird in the hand gets the low hanging fruit in the bush.
Would you please provide your definition of "meditate"?
Edit: Merriam-Webster entry for reference so I'm not asking you to do all the work here.
From a pure math point of view with some assumptions about X being greater than zero, sure. There is an upper limit to the value of thinking about a thing though and it's somewhere between "thoughtful consideration" and "huffing my own farts in lotus position for 12 hours a day".
I can imagine a lot of things. That doesn't make those things real or meaningful.
- Waste your time
- Reduce your likelihood of being hit by a car (when compared to activities such as walking across a street, assuming you are not meditating in said street)
- Increase the odds of becoming an insufferable douchebag who tells people all about how meditation has changed their life
Full of shit, medically speaking. Just a vaguely human-shaped lump of shit with an orange skin-like coating. Haven't yet figured out how it moves or talks but now we know the source of the smell at least.
Maybe they just forgot which cave they left him in, couldn't find the right one later and then decided to commit to the resurrection thing rather than admitting that they lost him.
I'd post that one joke about weevils but it's not my turn.
Why do we let the dumbest motherfuckers decide anything, ever?
Why are fundies so sensitive? Toughen up, quit whining.
Every successful flight with him on board is a missed opportunity for those pilots to do the world a favor. They've made their choice.
This is real
I've always wanted to be a federal agent, what's the work environment like?
Wish I could remember the penalty for treason... It'll come to me (or them).
And it's just fun to throw stacks of eggs at everything in sight. Makes you feel rich these days.
Where do I sign up?
"Just a dog" is like being "just an astronaut". Cute pup though.
I want to get off of Mr. Putin's Wild Ride.
I'm sure they'll help. Don't have to set the thing in motion, just give it a little push now and then to keep the conversation moving in the direction you want it to go.
You can only spend so many months carrying full buckets of lukewarm cum through Disney's hidden tunnels without thinking that there must be a better way.
Make sure to also drill some holes in the feet unless you want to send somebody out twice a day to drain it when it gets full.

The Human Brain May Contain as Much as a Plastic Spoon's Weight of Microplastics

A watched pot never boils
I was in the middle of something in another room and it occurred to me that this familiar expression could be adapted for ADHD: A watched pot never catches fire. Good reminder to exercise a little extra caution in the everyday tasks that get boring but are still dangerous if you get complacent. Driving, cooking, poking around in a running computer with screwdriver even though you know you should shut it off, that sort of thing.
Now if you'll excuse me, I should get back to cooking breakfast before the "food is done" alarms start going off throughout the building.

User flooding instance with (mostly) empty communities
@[email protected] has created 80+ communities here, most of which are empty save for a "Looking for moderators" post. Some have 0-3 posts which are nearly all from the creator and a couple have some regular user activity.
I recognize that this may not be against the rules as long as it's not simply for the purpose of squatting on a name but is worth observing for future developments. It does not appear that this user intends to actively moderate since they're looking to hand those communities off as soon as they're created.
