emptychair @innertalks (23730) • Australia 31 May

The Zen master would rise each morning, walk outside bare footed, hug a tree, then come back inside the meditation room, and sit for an hour in meditation. He did this for many years, and it became like a koan to his...

Baconstripsxxx That is really encouraging news. It’s amazing how quickly nature can begin to recover when predators are removed and native wildlife finally gets a chance again.

How do you guys handle rude remarks online?

Michael Duff @Wrexxo (1517) 5 Jun

..so I commented on someone's post the other day asking for solution to a problem they raised. The person replied saying i should read the post. I felt the comment was rude, but I didn't want to enter into any argument or back...

Baconstripsxxx I probably would have felt a bit put off by that too. Sometimes people reply quickly and come across more blunt or rude than they intended, but “read the post” definitely doesn’t sound very welcoming.

Baconstripsxxx That sounds like an incredibly scary situation, and I’m glad Marissa made it out safely. Flash floods can turn dangerous unbelievably fast, especially in small towns where water rises before people have much warning.

Baconstripsxxx I tend to prefer tubes too because they feel more hygienic and less messy. It’s definitely more convenient not having to dip fingers into a product every time, especially for lip balm or creams.
