If you are having a bad headache, place a teaspoon of rosemary in a tea strainher and boil, then drink.

Aspen bark is a natural painkiller. You can peel the bark off the tree, make sure its clean and remove a few layers, grind it up and use like half a teaspoon.

Dandelions can be eaten, They can help with circulation and contains vitamins.

When foraging plants and fungus, take care not to do it where people walk their dogs often. Dogs like to piss on all the good stuff. Also watch out for toxic pesticides or heavy road traffic that can put heavy metals in the soil.

I must report that for me, tea tree oil did not work. I applied it with a q-tip to my Athlete’s foot. FOR SCIENCE. It was pure oil, stored in a closet and about a year old, I dont think it lost its purity. I also dont know if i was supposed to mix it with water or coconut oil to use as a buffer and if that would have made it more effective.

If it's just a cold you have, safety pinning a hand towel to the front of a t-shirt and wearing under something else, so the chest is warm but the torso doesn't overheat, always sped up getting over it by a few days. For me at least.

>The Ghost Incident at Manza Kogen Hotel

>The Manza Kogen Hotel, located near Kusatsu-Shirane Mountain and built over ancient hot springs, holds a strange history that is said to linger even today. This land was once part of a small, isolated village where people revered the mountain as sacred and worshipped the hot springs as if they were gods. According to local legend, when the mountain showed signs of unrest, the villagers would perform rituals near the hot springs to try to calm its powers.

>One particularly well-known tale speaks of a young woman who was taken to the hot springs in the dead of winter and sacrificed to pacify the volcanic activity. After that night, misfortune befell the village: the mountain erupted violently, toxic smoke spread over the land, and the villagers were forced to abandon their home and flee.

>Years later, when the hotel was constructed, some workers reported strange occurrences, such as tools mysteriously disappearing or eerie sounds. However, these incidents were often attributed to the harsh natural environment. Yet over the years, some hotel guests have reported feeling a chilling presence around the hot springs at night, and a few have even claimed to see a young girl with long black hair standing by the water’s edge.

>The hotel remains a popular destination, though locals continue to pass down these old stories. Visitors are sometimes advised to show respect for the legends and to avoid approaching the hot springs after dark.

I know that god will punish you for making such a shitty OP

Why did you not lurk? Making a thread with a snazzy one liner isn't quality. Why not talk about theology in the thread op and add something of note that others can talk about?

(3.35 MB 2064x3288 )

In the pursuit of not following the footsteps of the other goofball retards in this thread, I'm gonna talk about Theology.
I don't really consider myself a "Theologist" in any way, and most of my knowledge of the subject is just gained through osmosis from topics I'm interested in that often brush shoulders with it, such as philosophy. I haven't read any religious texts and in general I'm not very learned in the subject.
However, I do have my theories upon the nature of God. I'm a believer in the "we are God experiencing itself" brand of 'religion'. If you break the world down into the tiniest of things, we are all made of basically the same stuff-- atoms and matter. Everything is made of matter. Despite that fact, we as sentient beings also seem to be "divine" in some manner. We haven't figured out which parts of the brain are actually responsible for consciousness, so it reasons that our sentience comes from somewhere outside of our material realm, I.E the soul or something similar.
I believe that this "soul" that is responsible for us being... well, us, is God. That God is us, and we are God. We are also matter, and "of the world". God is everything, and we are OF everything, therefore we must also be God. We are divine in the sense that we can experience the reality that is ultimately the same as us, yet different.
What the implications of that are I haven't quite figured out, but it's what I believe.
What do you believe, anons?

There is a special place in Hell for faggots and OP you are being one. You remind me of 1 Corinthians 6 9-10. Don't try to play God as well as 22chan with poor OP.

If you're really serious about theology, how about starting with the basics?
- The Bible was originally written without columns, like a normal book for the time of writing (clay tablets then papyrus/other material scrolls). So why not format it like a normal book?

Pic is of a church in Georgia, with a double walled defence from the musket days.

Something i was thinking is, Why not view imageboards as a blank slate? Especially if you are new to imageboards in general. Yes imageboards in the past themselves has history and in a way why does it matter? If i where an entry level newfag/normalnigger i wouldn't necessarily have to study lore or really anything to understand the format. Instead i would have to know two things. 1: Lurk Moar before posting. Read the rules, Then the Threads, And finally the post therein. After that: Ask Questions! Then, post. 2: Do not post outsider content (such as normalnigger memes) unless specified otherwise. Everything else such as fandoms and groups and formats such as flashes is no more then asking and slowly learning but although that is a personal choice to make.

Maybe I'm freaking out over nothing and it's really stupid but I came across this image on /pol/ and the thing that I don't understand is why in the fuck is Jim Watkins a moderator of 4chan...? Is this public knowledge or something and I just didn't know and if so why in the fuck is Jim Watkins moderating 4chan under the alias of RapeApe when he was publicly accused of stealing 2channel by Hiroyuki who then came in ownership of 4chan >>>https://anonymous-japan.org/fake2ch/
I was lurking the imageboard happenings thread on 4chan a while ago where RapeApe was mentioned to be GrapeApe but some users said that it was pure coincidence and that he confirmed in IRC that it was not him but then I bring your attention to this 2nd image of the supposed "Meet your 4chan moderators" that made its rounds on /pol/ years ago and take a look at the first name... "GrapeApe" Maybe some of you remember this post on the 2channel spelunking thread >>>/sewers/626/#1153 where it says that on 2channel Jim Watkins went under the alias of "Grape Ape ★"
Am I going crazy? What the fuck is going on?
Honestly though maybe I am confusing RapeApe with someone else or that guy is trolling by using this name knowing it's Jim Watkins.

from Desuarchive. Mind you the person mentions how Jim Watkins has a handle name of Grape Ape and that a similar mod is named RapeApe BUT NOT that RapeName also goes under another handle called GrapeApe. Also the last screenshot is just the WIRED article that talked about the scandal of the buffalo shooting and the involved with 4chan: https://archive.is/JiuRy What are the chances that Hiroyuki enlists a guy named RapeApe as his head moderator who also goes under the same handle name of GrapeApe that Jim Watkins went under...?

>>3651
the backstory of these things spook me because of how all these people associate with eachother and all of the shady background things they do. jim watkins involvment with Qanon, (also 2chans relation to 8chan) hell i even remember a pic of jim, hotwheels, and mark the /v/ moderator doing coke with some strippers nearby and its just like, i thought this was like a small little website now they are making cash money, how are they getting shit and what are they doing to the imageboard sphere, and user IPs? i mean rapeape is trolling, i think he's canadian (and something about his original name being narutomod) but you never really know with these people. it's all so sad because imageboards have gotten so much shit for a place to be anonymous and talk about hobbies.

Put it in a ponytail. When I had long hair, that was always my go to. Depending on your face and phenotype, a ponytail can look badass on a dude. Other than that, you're sort of out of options

Depending on how thick your hair is, sweat can either drip down or linger in your hair. It doesn't matter how long your hair is; you will still sweat a lot if you are active. My best advice is if there is any way to concentrate your hair in one area, do that so that only one area sweats and gives yourself time to relax.

Growing my hair out as a teenager is one of my fondest memories. I'm going to do it again soon, once I get my own place. I like tying a handkerchief around my forehead, it kept the hair back and soaked up sweat pretty good.

Long hair is nice. Wear a cotton Bandana?

I also want to bring up something even more intriguing: back then, when Nico Nico Douga wasn't a corporate shit hole and cared about its userbase, when the "I tried to sing" tag exploded on Nico Nico Douga, it led to the realization of a unique concept: gathering several more prominent singers from Nico Nico Douga to produce a "歌ってみた" CD available for purchase. This project was directed by Shigeru Saito who was associated with Lantis, he is known for handling music production for popular anime series like "The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya," "Lucky☆Star," "D.C.Ⅱ," character songs, and radio programs. Interestingly, Saito was also a fan of Nico Nico Douga. Despite all of the copyright infringements of the song selections, they managed to release it. Initially, though, it was criticized for its poor song selection, but the evaluation improved over time.
The CDs released are as follows:

https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm17663034 [Play] Introducing singers who deserve more recognition but weren't invited to Nico Nico Chokaigi

I’m not sure if the video title is being serious, but it’s kinda extremely funny to think about how much talent Nico Nico actually started, with people who made what were often seen as joke videos going on to become professional singers, musicians, etc.

If you’re wondering what Nico Nico Chokaigi is: https://dic.nicovideo.jp/a/ニコニコ超会議 It's basically a real life event held by Nico Nico where the community comes together to recreate Nico Nico Douga in the real world: https://youtu.be/BbqT4wNKCs0 [Play].
That being said, you have to ask why the management decided to dump so many resources into these large-scale events like Nico Nico Chokaigi and Nico Nico Taikai, while the site itself was barely functioning, even for premium users...
https://dic.nicovideo.jp/b/a/ニコニコ大惨事 (Nico Nico Disaster)
Going through the comments on this trainwreck is just brutal because it's obvious they were intentionally cutting costs to make Nico Nico barely profitable at the expense of a functional website. All while pushing these events (and even planning overseas expansions) without even securing a solid footing in Japan.

The "Spirit of the Engineers" who power Nico Nico Douga at Dwango.
http://rikunabi-next.yahoo.co.jp/tech/docs/ct_s03600.jsp?p=001878
It sounds like they're looking for highly skilled engineers based on this article created on 2011/02/24, but after reading this article from 2011/02/18, I'm left speechless.

Takeshi Natsuno’s next strategy for Nico Nico Douga:
http://rikunabi-next.yahoo.co.jp/tech/docs/ct_s03600.jsp?p=001867
"But we are not resting on our laurels. We're aiming for the future. We have two directions: one is entertainment. We're moving beyond video towards live entertainment like concerts and musicals. We already have a world where 10,000 people will pay 2,000 yen just to watch an artist's live show on the internet."
"The second direction is overseas expansion. We’re not necessarily imagining physically expanding abroad since we can easily cross borders online in today’s world. We’re developing a business model that doesn't rely solely on Japan or cater only to Japanese users."
The "disaster" article mainly talks about what happened on February 5, 2011, during the the final event of the Nico Nico Taikai when a major issue hit Nico Nico Douga and both free and premium members couldn’t watch videos. It was probably one of the first big signs of Nico Nico starting to lose its userbase because of poor management decisions. I went through some of the 1500+ comments posted a few months after that, and honestly, it’s insane how much regular and premium users suffered because of their greed...
When Hiroyuki was still there, he famously said during the disaster:
"Did you know that, even though this is Nico Nico Douga, a video site, people can’t watch videos today due to a problem? I think it’s wrong to ignore our core business and do events like this."

Anyways I think it's almost impossible not to rant about the management in every post if you have to explain the things that make up nico nico so please enjoy that video lol.
