Yo man. Sup. Sorry about the inactivity.

Yo! No worries, I'm on the verge of my summer trips so I'll be taking over that inactivity role in a bit. :) How are you doing though? Any progress?

@AudioMachina22 @Cyberdevil Aw that sux that you'll be off for a bit. Hope you'll enjoy the summer though, and as for me, I won't be going anywhere. Try to resume the goddamn chat program.. that's my primary goal.

Thanks man. :) Just can't skip these holy summer hiatuses, hard though it may be to initially leave this place! Hmm, hope the project's not weighing you down though I hope? Gotta get out a little too; get some sun! ;) It does good.

@AudioMachina22 @Cyberdevil @Cyberdevil Yeahh... oh well, I love working with projects. But yeah, all work and no play is imbalance... I guess?

It feels so to me at least. :) Though my summer's not really play. Just different work. I think if you really enjoy what you're doing you don't ever need to stop really, but in this day and age who really does? But anyway, it's more about being outside to me, work or no, civilization's stifling.

I was looking at change.org and I found a petition to abolish the sex offender registry: https://www.change.org/p/abolish-the-sex-offender-registry

Really strong arguments against it there too... nice find.

@AudioMachina22 @Cyberdevil @Cyberdevil Ah. Hope it doesn't get too straining. That's what I hate about exercise, hah.

It's just a bit tough the first 3-4 weeks or so though. ;P If only vacations were a liiiittle longer... man, each winter I tell myself I'll get some better exercise routines though so it's not such a big shift, but that just never happens. Too much sitting. Feels like you really need the movement though. The more you're up and about the better you feel, and I don't think it's just because it's free time and sunshine and all, it's just your natural state. Finna take a few centuries before we really adapt to this sedentary lifestyle we have now.

Actually lived in Saudi a couple years. :) It's a bit surreal to know what kind of punishments they have since you don't see the harshness in the social order overall. Seems like North Korea and Somalia would probably be a bit worse, living conditions too not just the punishments...

@AudioMachina22 @Cyberdevil @Cyberdevil AH. Well have a nice summer, again. TTY in a bit.

Hmm seems like maybe you're not of the same mind when it comes to exercise being a part of our natural state of being and all? :) Thank you though man, hope you have some good times too! TTYthen!

@AudioMachina22 @Cyberdevil @Cyberdevil Just out of words. I've been thinking about hitting the gym, though. Could be kinda nice.

Mmm that'd be a writer's nightmare. :) Gym sounds good! I've rarely been in one. Once irregularly for half a year, once way more irregularly for a full year, now and then and hotel gyms and such... would be nice to get in some routine there too. Good luck!!!

@AudioMachina22 @Cyberdevil @Cyberdevil Yes thx. TTYL

Ciao!

Hey CD! Wanna see my response to one of the forums?
https://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1475263#bbspost26884987_post_text

On my way!

@HumanitySummer nice. :) Seems you got called out on the third one too, curious how you'll respond to that one...

@Cyberdevil 8 responded with 2 articles from the consanguinamory wordpress blog and a short message.

Good going. :)

Good morning AudioMachina22! :) Beautiful day today huh?

@AudioMachina22 @Cyberdevil @Cyberdevil Feeling pretty good.

Nice :)

@AudioMachina22 @Cyberdevil @Cyberdevil If I get what you mean, certainly. There are those that actually enjoy exercise such as running, but I am not one of them.

Well I don't really like running in particular either, but I feel the same way about that as I feel maybe you could feel about exercise overall, that if only I really commit to it and run and run and run then eventually I WILL like it. :) When you're in so good shape your steps are so light you just feel like you're flying... though of course takes a lot to get there, and so far I've never run consistently enough to start feeling that myself.

But I do like other physical labor. Anything that activates the muscles. Feels good afterwards. You get the serotonin/dopamine/etc chemical responses from anything that really activates the body. Wonder if everyone can't feel that. Maybe people really don't all get the same response; the body doesn't produce the same amount of endorphins...

@AudioMachina22 @Cyberdevil @Cyberdevil If I get what you mean, certainly. There are those that actually enjoy exercise such as running, but I am not one of them.

...for the same actions...

Mmm

@AudioMachina22 @Cyberdevil @Cyberdevil Yeah. Imagine pushing yourself like that for all eternity... that would be hell, no? I've come to the point where I feel I've pushed myself far enough to the point to taking a permanent break from those things I used to force myself to do.

Harmony is important, and pain is unwanted. We want to advance spiritually far enough to welcome the epiphany/gift of permanent leisure/comfort. And, not only that, we can work on this concept even further and make every day life even more entertaining, interesting, by studying truth. And having thoughtful discussions.

When you going?

Mmm, then again there's that thing about balance, of there not being good without the bad, no pain no gain, no hell no heaven, if you don't push yourself the accomplishment feels lesser. But maybe I've just yet to get into the spiritual realm enough to realize there's an alternative; see that side of it all. I understand your perspective yet can't help feel like there's such a thin line between accepting something and giving up, and if you're not constantly pushing yourself... well, I guess time will tell what works; if our differing tactics lead to the same place, or if one path stands out here. :) Of course you have to know your limits too. Pushing too hard just gets you hurt. Maybe you know yours. I feel like I'm still far from really figuring out mine; finding the ideal balance. Like I could do more but only if I think less about it... either way, summer's all about finding harmony, that's the main goal. :) Work hard and rest up and recoup and get ready for winter!

Leaving early Thursday morning, so basically tomorrow. :P Bout to post that 'It's Summer' message in a bit...

@AudioMachina22 @Cyberdevil @Cyberdevil Oooo. Ok. Have a nice vacation, even if it feels like a chore!!! There are these good moments in chores too... and breaks. Anyway, I haven't given up on life. I've given up on the pain. It's not needed; rly!!!!!!

For sure, I feel like you can learn to appreciate anything that does benefit you in some way too, and these summer sessions definitely do. :) Gotta hone that ideal mindset; find a balance; find peace and all too... anyway thank you! And that's good to hear! I don't know how you feel of course; exactly what kind of pain you feel, if you can get to a place of peace and harmony without it then maybe that is the better way! All the best!

@AudioMachina22 @Cyberdevil @Cyberdevil Ah. You'll see these must-do's fall away soon. Life changes you know... sometimes change is inevitable.

I hope some of them do... life does yeah, I've noticed, though I'm probably trying to resist certain change. Changing priorities and purpose and all feels like changing a fundamental part of who you are.
