"someday", i will stop hurting others.

it doesn't do much to merely be hopeful.

it is interesting when one has a dream which one can partially control.
i had a dream a few nights ago where i was watching a cop show (real life one), and a team of people planned a brilliant diversionary tactic.

one group robbed a bank, and the police were on to them, and they sped off with the loot and a high speed chase ensued. but along the route of the chase, the police witnessed a person shoot another person in the head (who fell down) and so they were forced to prioritize, and they chose to stop and chase the shooter instead, but the shooter just stood there and said "mate...it's just a pop gun and we're doing a youtube video" and the "victim" got up and said "all's good mate. it was just a stunt"

the police were then left with the predicament that the bank robbers were long gone by now.......ha ha ha.

in australia now, they also do random drug testing along with random breath testing.
the drug test tests are for cannabis or amphetamine and the alcohol one does not need to be explained.

so just imagine you are driving toward a massive RBT "pull over" site (with the witches hats and stuff), and you stop early (like about 100 meters before the RBT testing site).

all their pursuit cars are facing in the opposite direction because they are there to catch people who drive past without stopping, so the police decide to run back toward your car. in the meantime you get out and sit on your bonnet and have a snort of meth, a swig of rum and a bong, and when the police finally get to you, you say "g'day guys. what's goin' on?"

well then they are faced with the predicament of their tests, while proving positive to alcohol and cannabis and amphetamines, do not prove that you had any of these drugs in your system while you were driving.

if you have no more cannabis left, and no more snort left, then they can't even get you for possession of drugs.

all they can get you for is the bong which would be "possession of an implement designed for the consumption of a prohibited material" (or however they would word it).

that is another funny thought.

There are some creepy things in this world both of a human and non-human nature

if those things lived on land, no one would even have the thought.

because they're underwater, people haven't learned to associate them with disease and filth, as they have with insects. and so, we don't eat those even though we will probably need to in the future...if we don't master growing synthetic (animal-free) meats. :chef:

^That's true. We apparently have to be prepared to eat more bugs in the future :eew:



I love the exited look on his face when he finds the big one, and then how his facial expression changes when he realizes he have to eat it :mrgreen:

long ago, I sat all day in a jungle in Panama eating the ants that had a huge pathway right in front of my position.

These are what I was eating.

I have also eaten termites in Belize.
The guard termites (dark heads) taste peppery because they have an acid defense.
