Don't think I've seen one of these on Kissu, although I think it'd be an appropriate fit.

If you find any cool pictures, consider posting them!

Why doesn't the US and Canada have festivals like in Japan?

Or they're based around sport, which again interest depends on demographics generally but not as much so.

 No.2147

i guess sport does replace traditional festivals. We're like the old age romans watching people beat one another up and then partying

 No.2148

They probably do like >>2144 says.

But also we are probably under the impression that many Japanese festivals are much more widespread when they are not, they are still just local events that any nation holds.

I think you also ignore the large religious festivals like Eastern and Christmas and the National holidays and whatever Thanksgiving day is.

 No.2149

Interestingly Canada and America have unrelated holidays called Thanksgiving.

My hometown dedicates an entire week to festivals. Sadly, it's probably going to stop soon. 2020 they didn't have anything and 2021 there was great debate on doing it but they still did although the turn out was very low. We used to have two separate weeks in the year for festivals but we haven't seen anything happen during the earlier time of the year since around 2012 as the town dedicided to not host them anymore yet raising city taxes claiming it's for festivities when they've been cutting and gutting more each year. Quite sad.

Yes but two of those aren't Germanic, Dragons are but they are in other places as well and I a not sure if Germanic dragons have wings or not and I don't see why that makes Germanic mythology dead. Though yes it is dead and has been dead for some time, I would not really count Asatru as a living continuation either.

Picked a lock to a door just off to the side of my apartment. Cat always wanted to know what was behind it and so do I.
Think it's never been opened in years because it makes a huge squeal sound when I tried to open it. Will have to find a good time of night to open it up when everyone is lying in bed. Like 3 hours from now I think.

The drawing tablet I got uses two USB-C ports for power and for its signal from the computer, but there's a difference in requirements that I don't really understand, but one of them has a thunderbolt icon next to it to signify the difference. I can't get it to work with extension cables I bought, so that sucks. I'm missing something but have been too lazy to bother looking it up

Love seeing laptops not being used as a laptop. I would love to do something like that but I'd rather buy a PC than a laptop since laptops tend to be more expensive and have more heating problems compared to a PC with similar specs.

Hmm, at that point something like an RV seems like a better choice. Come to think of it, yeah, I'd rather have a big house-car hybrid thing to move around into forests and stuff than a boat that's confined to lakes. I think there's probably a difference between a boat for lakes and a boat for oceans, right?
I guess it depends on where you are and where you're going, too, because land borders are generally less of a hassle than the water variety.
Although, with an RV you aren't very likely to find any mermaids...

I wonder how much of the matter that is "me" is still part of my body. I think I've heard people like Vsauce say that every cell in your body will have been replaced after 7 years, but that can't be right. Like, what about my bones or teeth? What about heart cells which thselves don't have enough time to regrow? What about brain cells with the whole "blood-brain barrier" thing? Maybe in terms of the total count of cells after 7 years, more than every cell has been replaced because of skin cell replication outpacing other stuff, but not every cell has literally been replaced? Weird to think about.

 No.2036

>>2035
Multicellular organisms are all a ship of theseus. It's true, a majority of your cells last several years at most, but that's not particularly relevant. You shouldn't think of cells as indepedent, when they mostly can't survive if they're separated from the whole. The being remains itself through the continuity of the system, not of its parts.
If you want to get technical, everything that undergoes any form of change is different from what it was seconds ago, even a rock whose particles gradually shift into a different composition and ultimately end up as something else entirely. But it doesn't really matter, the question of an essential you is founded on the prior assumption of the existence of a static and unchanging soul. If you believe in a transcendental essence then you've always been you and will always be, if you don't believe in it then there's simply no essence to begin with.
