Last thing my life is, is unexamined.

I sense it's time to leave you folks alone to get on with whatever sense of community it is that sustains whatever devices fascinate you.

Typing words out on a forum page doesn't do me any favors in this community game.

I've not even listened to this yet, but I'm responding first to your expression that most people are not yet ready for the responsibility of freedom. I think there is a missing manipulation link in that. I think people always were ready for it and actually doing it, within certain circumstantial con...

Cheers for the poetic me me me. My me me me has gone almost deathly silent of late. Not that I'm any less self centered, just can't be arsed with identity experiments any more. And, I don't trust the language we use enough to be either defined by it or even try to define myself through it. Even musi...

HaHa ! .. ok my lips are sealed.... Now... IF you've got a cracking good sound system, this mix I put together about 6 weeks ago will rock you and shock you and pick you up and kiss you after. It's my third attempt at it. The first two versions were too much for the people who heard it in my local w...

I can almost guarantee you wouldn't like where I go with it though... :cry: I think he's half nuts, but the pictures are fascinating, and clearly one his talents for gathering stuff. Those Petrified Forest photos were espec...

I wish I knew why this video has been cursed with such an awful title. I absolutely ignored this until I noticed Rad's post. This is a deeply fascinating video, and especially so if you turn off the clever, wity, likeable audio talkover by, presumably, the person who made it. Yea, I mean watch it wi...

I've been fascinated by the word and meaning of Psychedelic for a few years now. Since before I found out that the 60s culture was almost certainly an M K ULTRA fest. I can't say I've got it figured out yet. What I can say is that I've found an internet radio station/24-7 server that plays very tast...

A short "season" here. Hard to get anything to mature before the autumn rotting destroys everything. I tried all sorts, only the onion, leek, garlic family seem to like it here. Now, after a decade of neglecting my back garden, I'm contemplating growing tobacco and cannabis, well, at least...
