There is an ongoing video meeting! (maybe)

RICHARD:

Therefore, do ‘I’ feel the feeling of being stuck with ‘me’ (suffering) or not? If yes, then through staying with the feeling, by being the feeling (instead of trying to see how to get past that), one will find out, experientially, what it is really like to not have a path and/or not have a plan … other than the one of ‘looking for a way out’ so that one can stick with the known that is.

It sure beats armchair philosophising any day of the week.

Me and @Kub933 are running a little late, aiming for 3:30 :slight_smile:

I’ll be attending the meeting that’ll begin in two and a half hours, at 3:30 PM UK time. Who else is joining?

Will be almost lunchtime in Argentina, @Kiman, but I hope to listen to you for a little while (I know: not very stimulating because at least someone else will be needed for those who want to talk WITH someone :smiling_face:).

I forgot to reply to this.
One way is to “Watch” this topic with the bell:

But remember that they are NOT push notifications that would appear on your cell phone even when the application is closed.

Another way (which I don’t know if it works; I just configured it for myself to try it) is to set up your account to notify you by email every time the “get-togethers” tag is used, here:

I love how these chats have synced perfectly so far with me being 1) stuck on an airplane and 2) stuck on a train. Better luck next time. :joy:

Regarding one of the discussion points today:

When Mike Tyson was asked by a reporter whether he was worried about Evander Holyfield and his fight plan he answered; “Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth.”

Lol. I had to tell my brother I’m taking a vacation with two guys I met online. He figured they were from Reddit and told me to be careful. I said they’re not from Reddit. They’re the “Australian people.” (my code with him for actualists since I’ve been there twice) And now he thinks I’m moving away to join a cult and/or getting my organs harvested.

Missed again

Unfortunately, I’ve noticed now that setting up our accounts to be notified by email every time the “get-togethers” tag is used (as suggested in There is an ongoing video meeting! (maybe) - #67 by Miguel) does not work because it’s a topic property and an event triggered just when a new topic use that tag (not every time a post is published in a topic using it).
