it was almost comically hard to find a gif of the flag burning

hey well said, that's a very cool thought. along similar lines, i've always liked to imagine that "seeing" from a tree's perspective might be like watching really fast time-lapse video, in whatever way and to whatever extent a tree can perceive its external environment. chilling on a totally different time scale. the rise and fall of empires, just a day in the life of a bristlecone pine

lmao agreed. definitely not anywhere near as good but here's a website i just found of ai herzog and ai zizek having an endless conversation that amused me for several minutes.

River hammock vibes are impossible to beat

Here's a real nice song i just heard

I'll put it on google drive if you want, it's like 150mb.

Werner Herzog: [On the jungle] Kinski always says it's full of erotic elements. I don't see it so much erotic. I see it more full of obscenity. It's just - Nature here is vile and base. I wouldn't see anything erotical here. I would see fornication and asphyxiation and choking and fighting for survival and... growing and... just rotting away. Of course, there's a lot of misery. But it is the same misery that is all around us. The trees here are in misery, and the birds are in misery. I don't think they - they sing. They just screech in pain. It's an unfinished country. It's still prehistorical. The only thing that is lacking is - is the dinosaurs here. It's like a curse weighing on an entire landscape. And whoever... goes too deep into this has his share of this curse. So we are cursed with what we are doing here. It's a land that God, if he exists has - has created in anger. It's the only land where - where creation is unfinished yet. Taking a close look at - at what's around us there - there is some sort of a harmony. It is the harmony of... overwhelming and collective murder. And we in comparison to the articulate vileness and baseness and obscenity of all this jungle - Uh, we in comparison to that enormous articulation - we only sound and look like badly pronounced and half-finished sentences out of a stupid suburban... novel... a cheap novel. We have to become humble in front of this overwhelming misery and overwhelming fornication... overwhelming growth and overwhelming lack of order. Even the - the stars up here in the - in the sky look like a mess. There is no harmony in the universe. We have to get acquainted to this idea that there is no real harmony as we have conceived it. But when I say this, I say this all full of admiration for the jungle. It is not that I hate it, I love it. I love it very much. But I love it against my better judgment.

The project they put me on concluded like two days after i finished the training (lmao) so now I'm waiting to be reassigned but hey i made $70 on the assessment tasks!

Good shit though, also I've never done a job that made me feel like I'm taking part in some cosmic eldritch ritual beyond my understanding quite like this one

incredible, that's some bananafeels shit

i'd say you're correctly riding the wave

the word "jumbo" for "very large" comes from the name of a PT Barnem circus elephant that derailed a train in 1885
