The first knitted socks I ever truly loved
  • Oof. Socks are generally not considered a beginner's project, I'm afraid. Turning the heel and stitching the toe together at the end are easier done once you have a bit of comfort with what you're doing. You don't have to be an expert, though; even a couple of dishcloths could get you well on your way.

  • I wish people would write some descriptions for their communities
  • I remember when rec.arts.disney split. There was the voting process whether to split as well as a vote to how it would split, if I remember correctly. I hadn't thought about that in years.

    Alt was the free for all. I learned a lot on alt.atheism, including how threads devolve into chaos and when to walk away.

    Thanks fubo, I feel super old now.

  • This little guy was abandoned in the middle of a busy road
  • RAGE. In the middle of a busy road. So they wanted the poor baby dead but were too fucking cowardly to do it themselves. I hate people. Have your pets spayed or neutered, folks.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm ecstatic that you saved him. I just hate irresponsible pet owners and people who are that callous towards the life of an innocent creature.

  • People of Lemmy, have you ever had what some would consider a "spiritual" experience?
  • I agree with you that if the OP had used the word happiness instead of spiritual there wouldn't be any confusion.

    Perhaps it comes from the difference in whether one believes in a soul or not? I'm not sure. Honest question, not trying to fight or argue, could you clarify for me what you're taking issue with?

  • People of Lemmy, have you ever had what some would consider a "spiritual" experience?
  • Do you mean "spiritual" as actually feeling a connection with the rest of all life, or understanding that each person is a tiny speck in an incomprehensibly vast universe, or imagining a connection with a personal deity, or imagining a connection with the dominant deity of the area, or feeling a peaceful satisfaction of connecting with yourself?

    Religious people are likely to experience a different interpretation of the word spiritual than non-religious people. The use of the word spiritual at all will likely turn off a large part of the audience.

  • People of Lemmy, have you ever had what some would consider a "spiritual" experience?
  • There is no spiritual world, so all spiritual experiences are occurring only in one's mind. Whether they're troublesome or not can depend on whether the observer agrees with the delusion or not. If a person's delusion aligns with the dominant religion of the area, then chances are good that most of the observers will not consider the delusions to be problematic.
