good for someone who doesn't have much land to plant on/is restricted indoors

I dont know much about zen philosophy but Im not uninterested in it. Bonsai is cool because it allows you to capture the beauty of trees, forests and landscapes, and its relaxing to work on. Its living art.
Youre right in that they allow ppl with small or no gardens to dabble in gardening, which is especially true in Japan. But in the west people have larger gardens and many people make larger bonsai too. The ones I just started which are conker trees will be above 1,50 meters tall at their final hight I think, which is necessary because of that species´ thick twigs and large leaves, and I also want them to flower heavily if possible.
But I will also start a hawthorn or dwarf-pomegranate landscape/forest, which might be the size of a dinner plate in height and width.

zen is gay

why

WEEEEEEEEEEEB

I've been listening to shortwave for a while. Ham might be useful in the future.

You have to get a license. But the process is apparantly very easy. Id recommended looking for a local Ham radio club/group on Facebook. They're always happy to have new members. They'll set you up for success when it comes to training and licensing.

Anyone play guitar? I've been using a public guitar and the strings are really eating up my fingers even on my strumming hand. Waaay worst than any other guitar ive used.

Is it possible they used some sort of cleaning product on them and that made the strings more abrasive?

Maybe talc or the compound used on strings of the violin? Other then that you can always use a pick.

Any Track & Field people here?

what even is that

Ya know, track? 100M dash, 200M dash, 400M dash, 800M run, relays, long jump, pole vault, high jump, shotput, discus, hammer throw, all that?

I wasnt sure but yeah i know that

not my hobby though

Running’s just my thing, but sadly the COVID-19 outbreak is screwing up my season.

But you can still run right just not compete?

Yeah meets are cancelled.

I go for a run every now and then but I've only started like 3 months ago so I am not that fast.

I’m mostly a 400/800M runner but my 5K is decent.

@ItzMidrex can you run to the store and get me some TP

They’re all out

@Punished Elíasshame u

so im just watching videos about bonsai and this is what i have to put up with in the comments:

To those who can hear me, I say - do not despair.
The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed - the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress.
The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people.
And so long as men die, liberty will never perish. ...
Soldiers!
Don't give yourselves to brutes - men who despise you - enslave you - who regiment your lives - tell you what to do - what to think and what to feel!
Who drill you - diet you - treat you like cattle, use you as cannon fodder.
Don't give yourselves to these unnatural men - machine men with machine minds and machine hearts!
You are not machines!
You are not cattle!
You are men!
You have the love of humanity in your hearts!
You don't hate!
Only the unloved hate - the unloved and the unnatural!
Soldiers!
Don't fight for slavery!
Fight for liberty!
In the 17th Chapter of St Luke it is written: "the Kingdom of God is within man" - not one man nor a group of men, but in all men!
In you!
You, the people have the power - the power to create machines.
The power to create happiness!
You, the people, have the power to make this life free and beautiful, to make this life a wonderful adventure.
Then - in the name of democracy - let us use that power - let us all unite.
Let us fight for a new world - a decent world that will give men a chance to work - that will give youth a future and old age a security.
By the promise of these things, brutes have risen to power.
But they lie!
They do not fulfil that promise.
They never will!
Dictators free themselves but they enslave the people!
Now let us fight to fulfil that promise!
Let us fight to free the world - to do away with national barriers - to do away with greed, with hate and intolerance.
Let us fight for a world of reason, a world where science and progress will lead to all men's happiness.

some mix of every political compass field except authoritarian right

It's hard to believe that people think that movie speech is a good deep moving speech (I used to be one of those Rtards). It's just platitudes with no real sustenance.

@LimaGolf what movie is it from?

I think its Charlie Chaplin's The Great Dictator. If I remember right, it was big amongst leftwing libertarians.
