Sort of burny.
I wonder if usa flies will like it?

Community, participation, self-expression, self-reliance; these tenets of Burning Man are lifeblood of the Burning Man experience.

Formalization of the theory of constructivism is generally attributed to
Jean Piaget, who articulated mechanisms by which knowledge is
internalized by learners. He suggested that through processes of
accommodation and assimilation, individuals construct new knowledge
from their experiences. When individuals assimilate, they incorporate the
new experience into an already existing framework without changing that
framework. This may occur when individuals' experiences are aligned with
their internal representations of the world, but may also occur as a failure
to change a faulty understanding; for example, they may not notice
events, may misunderstand input from others, or may decide that an
event is a fluke and is therefore unimportant as information about the
world. In contrast, when individuals' experiences contradict their internal
representations, they may change their perceptions of the experiences to
fit their internal representations. According to the theory, accommodation
is the process of reframing one's mental representation of the external
world to fit new experiences. Accommodation can be understood as the
mechanism by which failure leads to learning: when we act on the
expectation that the world operates in one way and it violates our
expectations, we often fail, but by accommodating this new experience
and reframing our model of the way the world works, we learn from the
experience of failure, or others' failure.

I have known many gods.

Image
He who denies them is as blind as he who trusts them too deeply.

I seek not beyond death.

Image
It may be the blackness averred by the Nemedian skeptics, or Crom's realm of ice and cloud, or the snowy plains and vaulted halls of the Nordheimer's Valhalla.

Image

I know not, nor do I care.
Image
Let me live deep while I live; let me know the rich juices of red meat and stinging wine on my palate, the hot embrace of white arms, the mad exultation of battle when the blue blades flame and crimson, and I am content.

Image
Let teachers and priests and philosophers brood over questions of reality and illusion.

Image
I know this: if life is illusion, then I am no less an illusion, and being thus, the illusion is real to me.

Image
I live, I burn with life, I love, I slay, and am content.

It's a wonder I still have most of my teeth when I look back at my past history and lifelong addiction to sugary shit.

After a very long school year of reading things that other people have told me to read, I find that now that I can read any silly piece of brain candy I choose, I cannot decide what I want to read.

Damnit.
