Perhaps a bear which had taken to raiding human camps. If it had stopped fishing and/or had fallen ill, that might explain poor hygiene and the smell. And display to drive off humans and other bears might explain standing, to make itself look larger, and screaming.
The trolley ride goes off the rails.
Wow, for real!
I remember hearing about that place, and thinking I wished Iâd known about it sooner and couldâve taken my mom there when she was still healthy. She loved Andy Griffith, Gomer Pyle, Mayberry RFD, and Matlock. But then realized we werenât missing much, just a tourist trap.
âŚand a bunch of Trump supporters.
Anyhow, this is interesting: From âPronoia Is The Antidote For Paranoiaâ, by Rob Brezny -
Bullshit versus Horseshit
âBullshit is a rare and valuable commodity,â rhapsodized Art Kleps in The Boo Hoo Bible. âThe great masters have all been superb bullshitters. Horseshit, on the other hand, refers to downright crap. The free, playful, entertaining flight of ideas is bullshit, and more often than not will be found afterwards to accord perfectly with universal truth. Horseshit is contrived, derivative, superstitious, ignorant.â
âBullshit is creative, inspired myth-making intended to provoke growth,â added Alan Cabal in the Village Voice, âwhile horseshit is bottom-feeder derivative manipulation aimed at the endless acquisition of slaves, servants and followers.â
Bullshit helps the flowers grow, and thatâs beautiful.
Princess Diana preferred to drive her own car and a member of the Royalty Protection Command (otherwise known as SO14) sat in the passenger seat.
The car sold on Saturday is believed to be unique as the first and only black RS Turbo Series 1 - as agreed between S014 and Ford for reasons of discretion - instead of the usual white manufactured model.

âThis car was known as the âpeopleâs sports carâ and the fact it was driven by the Peopleâs Princess just nails it.â
Who cares? Give the money to charity.
I hope itâs true. Iâd love to see some real treatments.
As someone who has studied marketing, it seems more likely that the sizzle of the dramatic drug is helping alcoholics to get help in a way that excites them, instead of making them feel like losers. And then once they are in the program, they actually have a therapist and personal attention that they have shut themselves out of.
But I hope they keep working with this; it will change many lives. And if it is all sizzle and not an actual effect of the drug, itâs still getting people help.
The other article I read about it described someone imagining having a heartfelt conversation with a family member who had wronged them years before and in another session having an underwater conversation with someone they looked up to and admired or something like that.
It seems entirely sensible that it could be an effective and potentially powerful therapy enhancer, given how it opens up the mind to not just normal visualization but full sensory immersion. Especially for people who have some kind of driving trauma or psychological issue.
However, it said nothing about people who drink because they like it, or just to relieve stress, or out of habit, or whatever.
And the study had a lot of problems (patients all knew whether they were getting the psilocybin or benadryl, the effects were self-reported, the patients were not very heavy drinkers, it didnât adjust for effects of therapy vs drug, didnât say anything about other psychological issues, and it was a very small, short study with no followup to determine relapse rate).
However, maybe it can get somebody funding to do a better study. And even if it doesnât help everyone, it has potential that could eventually help a lot of people. One of my friends did the new ketamine assisted therapy, and it worked wonders for him.
Itâs frankly kind of amazing that drug-assisted therapy is still so new and controversial. Especially considering that governments were experimenting with things like drug-assisted interrogation and âmind controlâ so long ago.
I had a friend doing ketamine therapy but they found out she uses pot and they wouldnât let her continue. Sheâs relied on pot for most of her life for emotional issues.
I reread this and realized just how obnoxious it sounds. Sorry!
I just meant that $650,000 for a famous personâs car is a lot of money, that could have been used for something a bit more charitable.
I got that.
I just thought it was interesting that she drove herself, and that the European Escort looked much better than the American version.
Imagine it was Steve Mcqueenâs personal green cammer Mustang (or whatever) and youâll get a better sense of the context.
