I found it's worth rewatching, the movie stands up to the test of time. I feel like it's one of those great fictional stories that speaks about greater truths about human nature. As dark as it is, there's something so beautiful and deep running about humanity pushing on in the worst circumstances and pushing the new generation forward. Especially if you have kids of your own now, it's a different perspective.
Cool that you have a change of environment in Europe, hope that's going really well!
Never heard of that one, sounds like a familiar theme to The Road, and Children of Men. Children of Men was another good one.
I think what prompted me to revisit The Road was reading a book recently called A boy and his Dog at the End of the World. In that story (another post-apocalyptic scenario) the protagonist talks about reading The Road and other post-apocalyptic stories, which was a neat little moment to capture in a post-apocalyptic story.

The book is great- kind of abstract but truly haunting. Apparently the late Cormac McCarthy based much of the dialogue from conversations he had with his young son.

Is it worth reading, if you've seen the movie a couple times already?

Discord? I haven't checked it out, but Bluelight has a discord.

Started my version of microdosing with 30mics this morning. It's about threshold body and mood elevation effects for me because my tolerance is fairly high. Gotta admit that I feel amazing and so on point. I'm seeing opportunity where I used to see dead ends. It's really opening up my mind to different perspectives. Definitely going to continue and wish I had started earlier.

I think it is. I read if after watching and it made a subsequent rewatch even more powerful. Bear in mind, McCarthy has a weird writing style, uses very little punctuation and it can make reading his stuff a struggle. But honestly worth the effort. As I recall, the final page or so is poetically haunting. Hold out until then at least

Any other good Cormac McCarthy books to recommend?

Hey y'all, been so busy. It feels weird being out of the loop. Got a lot going on with work, looking to head up continuous process improvement across the entire company, I'd have every division reporting to me. This is my suggestion as an alternative to taking over one division and demoting my old boss, which I think would be a big mistake on many levels and also would feel morally wrong, but that's what I was offered. I wrote up a 5 page proposal stating exactly why I think I should do the other thing instead, and outlining my plan for how to make it happen. I just sent it this afternoon, so we'll see what happens.
Funny thing is, I really just want to be a software developer, which is what I'm doing now... but there is going to be a massive dearth of people who are prepared to be leaders in the next 5-7 years when most of senior management retires, and the president told me he sees me as the best candidate and the only one with a really comprehensive vision for how to move the company forward. I just don't want to get stuck in administrative hell, but I do want to implement my ideas.

Read this book of his involving Native Americans by him called Blood Meridian years ago and i really enjoyed it. As well as No Country for old men, read that one in about a day or two. When i was in prison ill i did was read, kept me from going crazy. Using the prison library and borrowing books from people kinda pushed me to explore all types of genres as well. Cuz when im home all i read is fantasy.

Finalizing my order for the gram of MXE right now should be here in a days. Man am i glad to have some of that classic back in my stash again. Crazy tho cuz last time i bought some it was 200 bucks for 10g's. But its probably my favorite drugs ever so whatever. When i get around to using some im gonna take at least two weeks off dissos before hand to drop tolerance low.
Then sniff like 10mgs to make sure its MXE, then im gonna boof 100-120mgs and hopefully hole on the stuff. Few hours later plug the same amount if i only skirted the first time. Then put the stuff away for a longtime. And eventually when the bag is down to 200mgs im just not gonna use anymore and keep it for the far future.
Unless i decide to get more in a few months and its still available, may say fuck it and get the 3.5g's option. If i do and im smart i can make that last years, by using other dissos instead that i have.

Its some really good stuff, mine comes mainly in rocks generally but when i break it down thats how it looks. Deff feels like MXE a bit but its speedier and a little more Ketamine like. Its much warmer then K tho and more psychedelic.
The holes on it are just breathtaking, espesially when you use it with n20 while your peaking. Those are some of the most intense disso trips ive ever had. So glad they made this one, its great having such a quality disso available cheaply like this. Hope you enjoy it, im sure you will.

Not cheap here but worth a try!
N2O on an ACH disso is indeed amazing, but likely synergistically neurotoxic (prompting GABA agonist co-administration) which i feel like mentioning every time it comes up.

How's everyone been? Life sucks for me lately. Need to find a new place to live, landlord is hiking my rent. Have only had spotty Internet at best for the past couple months. Hope everyone is doing well

I'm glad you wrote a proposal articulating what you wanted your role to look like. Their need for leadership ≠ your need for fulfillment and job satisfaction. I appreciate the importance of being the person positioned to solve problems and steer strategy, but isn't that usually more of an executive or consulting role, not a management one?
