Forum seems kinda dead... What other forums do you guys use

I'm just assuming I'm not talking to a computer / AI, but yes, you're right. Dead internet is apparent. This new great admin I think is pulling some wool over the algos' eyes.
This is a pretty nice forum from what I’ve seen. Couple a goof balls here and there that could probably use a few hours more sunlight a day truth be told.
On fruit trees - have you seen The Wicker Man? An island in Scotland founded by a radical scientist who revives paganism and - hint - fruit trees. Sounds eerily reminiscent of the Soviet citrus program in Georgia. When the crop inevitably fails their folk ideology requires human sacrifice. All these off-grid ideas seemingly lead to variations of The Lottery / Girard-ian Scapegoating / Wicker Man / Lord of the Flies situations. One of the most disturbing things about the movie is that both systems are at peace: the pagan village has a worthy sacrifice, and the truly devout Christian becomes a martyr.
Sounds juicy! I will check it out! Thanks!
Fruit trees planted in my yard include two cherry trees one red delicious apple an edible crab apple two plum trees, some paw paw trees, goji berries goose berries strawberry ground covers and lots of native wildflowers!
Peace! -
@dapose awesome. And for whatever reason I meant the national / us admin not this forum

this seems far more promising:
-
Longevity, biohacking, transhumanism, life extension, cryonics. This does look entertaining, thanks.

I still listen to most old GE podcast all the time
Yeah, me too.
I hope Haidut will be a more frequent guest on the Strong SItas podcast.
Yep, I would also like such kind of native/indigenous animism (like Aboriginals in Australia) to become a thing again...
BTW
Danny and Haidut's beef ended a year ago with a declaration of peace, but it seems that some bad blood stayed... -
@Milchbubi Nah, biohackers are usually still reductionist in mind...

I think this forum has fairly good activity considering it's only been open for what, a year? It doesn't have the name Ray Peat on it, which is why the other forum was able to grow so so much over a lot more years. People just need to spread the word. I wouldn't have found this if I hadn't seen someone tweet about it. I do think platforms like X have kinda taken a lot of the people who would have come here. They have communities you can join on X now, and Ray Peat is one community I joined. It's like being on a forum.
