> Nothing Happens Between Blocks

Actually, this is only partially true. With Lightning, things can most certainly "happen" in between blocks. Granted, some things that "happen" may never make it to the main chain, but many things will get rolled up and committed for all to "see".

This is, ironically, how reality works.

Why there are so many online mattress-in-a-box companies?
You get it. I'm grateful.

Check out double binds. Viral negativity, defined.

Do you find asking stupid questions productive? Honestly curious about that one. Also, this question I ask is a leading one. Know the difference.

Design can be considered "doing" by an organism in its change for survivial. Our "doing" made us be efficient with food. It's not like it was laying around or something back when we evolved, like it is nowadays.

Doesn't matter if we have an excess of food laying around today, DNA-wise. It takes generations to evolve new organisms that can deal with glut or scarcity. We are evolved the way we are and unlike the dork who wants citation about it, you aren't going to get what you want just by demanding it.

Only doing will show the truth. Talking about it is pointless and counterproductive to the end goal of reality, which is basically the efficient search for interesting.

Did a retreat. We ate at 6AM and 11AM. No food after Noon. Fasting for 18 hours a day, as we were designed. No stomach problems, felt great, real and regular.

Problem is, we eat a feast each and every night and were never meant to. Our success is killing us. Slowly and in a variety of horrific manners.

Trolls are everywhere, nowadays. Time for identity to reign for a while.
Concioussness requires a body. This is how it is, here.
The key is imagine. We have no means by which to estimate the proposed loss in the future when it happens. Talking about such a "loss" is irrational, at best. It matters not if someone pirates software. If someone is pirating your software, and you care deeply about it, your model for making money is probably off.
We manifest what we see in ourselves.
Quick, someone name an Ethereum app that does something useful and is in widespread use.
A trifle to Truffle.

Fuck Twitter. Its roles and permissions structure is a disaster to effective and FAIR communications and there is little reason by Twitter to disallow the more viral concepts circulating within its web. Time to deploy active measures to give humanity some means by which education on these concepts can occur.

Leave what? Leave a confined space that previously did not have animals in it? Leaving because you are allergic to support animal is irrational because it would have to happen first. Tube empty of animals already happened.

This argument requires holding support animal in tube is already foregone conclusion.

I've seen them in their phones. Swiping, tapping, swiping, tapping. Endlessly. Idiots.

Assuming that is so, it will likely drive entities to seek direct experience of interesting things.

Even better, get a good case of Aphantasia.

One of your statements is therefore bogus.
