Thank you for the very detailed answer. I can tell you have being taking good care of your birds as you speak so fondly of them.

I will show my child your answer so they can read all the implications that you so kindly shared and maybe have a talk about what having a pet chicken entails.

I get this feeling too and actively look for it. My best times achieving this have been scuba diving or snorkeling, sitting still after an intense ashtanga class, stopping by after a storm while driving out of a woodsy lonely area. That lack of auditory or otherwise sense stimuli makes me feel super calm but I try to watch out how I do it so I don’t freak myself or others out. I have been tempted to go to a flotarium, you know like that kid from Stranger things in her giant tub of water, but it kinda scares me.

That is so kind that you are intrigued by it. I will try and find out how to it here on lemmy since I have not being able to do it before.

I knew about the cat distribution system, but chicken distribution system? That sounds so random lol. My kid has wanted a hen for years but we are suburb dwellers and I am afraid of having a chicken indoors. Do you have any tips on how to deal with a hen indoors? I really liked your story, especially the bit about the beard nesting.

Awww senior pets warm my heart so much. I have an eighteen year old that is mostly blind and half deaf but has so much energy and today she pranced on the grass for a bit just like when she was a young fluffy pup. I love my girl to bits.

Team foxcatcher.

Great storytelling and has many interesting elements: Professional athletes, millionaire heir, family life, etc. It is a wild ride. I had never heard about this case until I watched the documentary.

I really liked Wild wild country. It was very well put together and told Osho’s story in a way that showed all the bits and pieces.

Man! Dear Zachary hit me like a ton of bricks. I couldn’t stop crying at every turn of events. Absolutely heart breaking.

A little of this, a little of that.

Positive: Someone reached out to me to tell me that one of my pieces (I am an artist) made them emotional and that it was beautiful. It made my day and I was (am) absolutely beaming.

Negative: Hard earned money that had to go pay some stupid bills. I try not to dwell much on it, but it makes me feel rage at times.

I don’t have one but my SO does and when he first referenced to it I just stared at him like he was hallucinating. Like wtf you mean you have a tiny voice that functions as a narrator at times?, doesn’t that freak you out? Does it use the third person to address you? It still kind of creeps me out because, as I said, I don’t have one.

Wall pushups helped me a ton at the beginning so I could learn proper hand/arm placement, then that evolved to knee pushups like the ones you describe, then full pushups and now yoga ball pushups so my body and my mind keep getting challenges because I get bored very easy and lose interest at an alarmig rate. Slow is your friend! At least it is for me. Rushing a workout or setting unrealistic goals are killjoys that I don’t need at this point.

Me! I did it for years while in my twenties, then stopped because of injury, bad form and other circumnstances. Now I’ve picked it up again but through a personal trainer. My goal is long term mobility and independence, not so much muscle growing so I strength train 3 times a week, pilates or barré 2 times a week and yoga daily to stretch and help my mental health. I love being able to do pushups and other exercises that challenge me and feeling stronger and stronger everyday. Good for you for listening to your body and what it needs, no need to risk injury to kick ass IMO.

You must have had a class on how to do research, how to cite a paper, how to look for books in a library, etc. No?

I am not trying to come of as condescendent at all, it truly baffles me because I had such classes starting in middle school all the way up to graduate school and they were mandatory. Isn’t that the standard in higher education?

Plus the visuals and ambience creation were superb IMO. Mads Mikkelsen is such a vesratile actor. I especially liked his Hannibal.

OP: I am babbling all over your post because I am so excited to find interesting shows, movies and people in it. Sorry for the rambling.

Oh my absolute favorite detective. I remember waiting a freaking year when they announced “Midnight sun” to come out as the series finale. Great british TV!

The sinner season 1 was great! Jessica Biel surprised me with her character but it’s the little sister that does it for me. Have you watched “Sharp objects” with Amy Adams? I love how gritty and sordid it is. Kinda slow at first butvthen it picks up quickly for a riveting ending.

I guess you are talking about the tv series? Because that was, indeed, kind of not so good. I watched a couple of episodes.

The movies, at least for me, were good in a general sense but La habitación del niño was great in my opinion.

That Unabomber series was such a touching piece for me. I don’t want to spoil anyone’s fun, but it made feel vey sentimental how his vulnerable side was presented.

Spot on! Very dark and dramatic, I remember reading the Millenium series when it first came out and then went to the theater to watch The girl with the dragon tattoo, the original european version with Noomi Rapace as Lisbeth Salander. What a great actress!

IKR?! I read the book some time ago and I was like, man this part here would have made such a great episode.
