Top five regrets of the dying →
mindbabies:
(1) I wish I’d had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.
“This was the most common regret of all. When people realise that their life is almost over and look back clearly on it, it is easy to see how many dreams have gone unfulfilled. Most people had not honoured even a half of their dreams and had to die knowing that it was due to choices...

HR specialists say boomer parents are advocating on behalf of young adult children, calling up to negotiate better benefits, protest a poor evaluation, etc. NPR seeks to interview people about this. Employers - have you experienced it? Parents - if you’ve…
Really?
I’ve heard tales of this (and not just Boomer parents) for years...
what a sad society we live in when it is "news"...
fuckyeahpsilocybin:
people are so out of control of their own lives, they can’t be bothered to experience something for themselves unless the news tells them to.
I think we should use the lessons and the framework that these substances teach in combination with this well documented scientific data from the world’s leading educational institutions to dispel the myths that culture and the...

Why do the advertisements for blu ray on my regukar DVDs look better than regular DVDs? If they can make the advertisement look better, why not the movie itself. Life is puzzling.

Well, the day is almost upon me. This Friday I will be undergoing by first psilocybin session at Johns Hopkins. Its been interesting to hear people trying to describe what might feel. “If you feel like you are dying,” they said, “You can let us know. Its ok. You’re not dying for real. We will probably just tell you to go ahead and die. Go in there and explore and see...
Gerry Rafferty
Know that name? Doubt you do. A few might recognize the name of the song Baker Street. But EVERYONE knows that fucking saxophone part. Everyone.
