tax isnt theft, its a fee you pay for living in a civilized country
I pity the fool who thinks government run society is the only way in which a 'civilized' society can operate. And yes, tax IS theft, what happens when you don't pay your taxes? You get a letter, what happens if you ignore the letter? They send people with guns over. What happens when you resist these people? They will shoot you.
Sounds like theft to me. Besides, you pay a fee for services. Whether you use a service or not, the very foundation of a contract(For a service) is a mutual agreement. No one consulted me when they said: Pay taxes, we will do shit with it!
In short, there is nothing voluntary about the state. The state uses force to get things done, and therefore the state is an immoral institution that should be dissolved.

People talking about sleep paralysis is annoying as fuck. Everyone wants to share their story and think they're special but in reality it's just something weird that happens occasionally to most people.
I think it's fascinating. I've always been interested in how the brain functions during sleep and the role dreams play in the process.
I read a great article on arstechnica recently about research that describes the method by which memories and information are either strengthened or "pruned" during REM sleep.
Just relax, take deep breaths, and imagine a peaceful scene around you
In a few moments you will enter a lucid dream
It's extremely difficult to do this at first though, because sleep paralysis is fucking terrifying. It took years of semi-weekly episodes before I finally got this right
And then when I figure this out, I stop getting sleep paralysis. Fucking figures.
