German for "over stallion," and a reference to Nietzsche's "Übermensch," /üb/ - Überhengst is about bettering yourself physically, mentally, spiritually, and emotionally. It is about self-improvement, constructive self-reflection, and seeking advice from others. You may discuss here those personal hobbies through which you develop your creative energies, and the efforts you take to improve your talents, artistic and otherwise. And of course, this is a board for fitness and literature, as they are parts of the backbone of physical and mental wellness. This is also a board where we may discuss Western culture - history, literature, architecture, and philosophy - as when imbibed, culture improves the mind and spirit, sharpening mental faculties, and providing a greater connection to those around you and to civilizations millennia old.
As this is a self-improvement board, discussions of personal problems should be constructive. No wallowing in self-pity. We are here to become better, and while seeking company in misery may be a helpful part of the process, the process does not end there.
Enjoy!
/ub/ - Überhengst
Becoming better

Theres a bible thread, there should be a Pagan/Norse thread.
If decoded in a particular way (read: correct) the Bible and the Norse/Pagan tradition have an astonishing amount of parallel/in-common. But this thread isn't about appealing to Christendom, it is about embracing the warrior spirit of our proud white traditions and heritage!
Odin does not respect the man who kneels, Odin honors the man who stands resolute in the face of Gods.

Anime isnt the umbrella term, cartoons and animation is the umbrella, of which anime is the sub-category. You're effectively trying to argue that all furres are MLP, instead of all MLP being furries.

That's retarded. No western show has ever actually had an anime style, they were only anime-inspired at best. Nevermind that, none of them were ever written like an anime would be, and had vastly different dialogue and messages, so putting them together with other anime would be retarded.

There are a few things I'd like to do in this thread
- document my soap making process
- document process changes and upgrades to equipment
- detail common problems when making soap
- answer any soap making questions
- eventually let everyone know when and where product can be purchased
Basically everything to do with soap.
I'm not concerned about telling somebody how to make a product that I'm selling either. There are a few reasons for this: Some people won't be able to receive such a product overseas, or it wouldn't be feasible to ship. I'm not so petty to think that trying to conceal information somehow results in "job security". The soap making process is already quite well documented. Finally, I didn't start making soap to make money with, I started because of the memes, but also to have a product to better prepare myself for economic collapse.
I wish to share this with you guys so (you) too can better prepare yourself for whatever is coming.
Lets start with the boring stuff, like what is soap?
I would define soap as a surfactant. A surfactant is a molecule that will bind to water, oil, and particles.
The US legal definition is 'soap made from natural ingredients'. Synthetic soap is often sold as 'beauty bars' or 'body wash' instead of soap, because they are not made with natural ingredients.
Most modern engine and transmission oils, and heavy grease used for equipment will contain detergents. Don't let the word detergent mislead you, it means the same thing as surfacant.
Lye harvested for soap making in ages past is called potash. The potash lye soap making process is a fair bit more involved, and the chemical reactions are a bit different. https://classicbells.com/soap/woodAshLye.asp
Potash soap has been made for a very, very long time. If one of you decides to try this out, please let us know how it goes!
"modern" naturally made soap uses either potassium hydroxide or sodium hydroxide for the lye. Sodium hydroxide is used for making liquid soaps, sodium hydroxide for solid soap bars.
The easiest way to get sodium hydroxide is from a hardware store selling containers of "pure lye" drain unclogger in the plumbing section. For example https://www.homedepot.com/p/Instant-Power-Crystal-Lye-Drain-Cleaner-1650/204374017
Soap made from natural ingredients is a very sloppy chemical reaction. There are untold numbers of different chemicals and compounds found naturally in any given type of oil. Most of those oils will react with the lye to make some rather complex reactions that result in "soap". It is not uncommon for the soap to change color as it cures for this reason.
Oils are typically mixed and matched to make a nice bar of soap, as no single oil has a good mix of the fatty acids necessary for a good bar of soap.
When making your first batch of soap:
Start with solid bars of soap, instead of trying to make liquid soap. Liquid soap is much pickier about what kind of oils you use.
Use an existing recipe for your first batch, then try to make soap using as much local products as possible. When economic collapse happens, getting those foreign oils will be much more difficult or impossible.
Start with a 2:1 water:lye ratio. If your recipe calls for 12 ounces of lye, use 24 ounces of distilled water. Ignore however much water the recipe calls for.
When building your own recipe, or modifying an existing one, use the following two web pages:
http://soapcalc.net/calc/SoapCalcWP.asp
https://classicbells.com/soap/soapCalcNumbers.asp
And when in doubt, ask in here.
This first post is just a boring autistic dump on chunks of important or related information. I'll post a lot more (actual making) soap stuff when I get the chance. I think this is a pretty good start though.
Be sure to ask whatever in here about anything related. Over the last year I've been pretty autistically going over how most people make soap, refining my own process, and doing fairly deep-diving research on the topic and general chemistry.

shorter shitpost this time
https://sweethaven-soaps-and-sundry.storenvy.com/products/36734801-morning-in-the-library-bar
Got one of their bars at harmonycon and while I was trying to search for their web page I had their soap sitting on my computer desk. In the short amount of time its been sitting here, I got a bit of a headache just from the shitty fragrance they use for their soap.
I'll probably use it once, maybe twice, but I expect to break out in rashes from the shitty fragrance.
Apparently they use a pre-mix of oils sold to soap makers because they can't brain hard enough to figure it out themselves.
They only list a couple of bars of soap on that page but they had a lot more, including bath bombs, at their harmonycon table. They were also one of the only ones wearing a mask other than the furfags.
Their soap is also freaking tiny, less than half the size of a "I Can't Believe It's Not..." soap bar.
At least the colors are interesting with swirls and stuff I guess. Mica is expensive to use for soap dye, but it does offer more control over color and is generally more vibrant.
Their soap bar was somewhat squishy, which means either they did not let it cure long enough to let the water evaporate, or they didn't use enough lye.
Gave them a bar of "I Can't Believe It's Not Appul" soap, maybe they will drop their soap making thing out of shame.
I know I sound like I'm out there to destroy everyone who tries to make pone-themed soap, but its really not the case. There was a lot of dialog while I was talking with them and was never rude about it. They were just starting and were trying their best.
They mentioned they wanted to make some proper old-school soap by collecting ashes and extracting the lye and selling that at a renaissance fair. Good luck Sweethaven Soaps and Sundries, its a lot of extra work on top of everything else.

made a batch a couple weekends ago, about 7 gallons. Need to bottle it now. Probably going to try a few different things before getting something good to take to mare fair.
the yeast isn't working too good, mostly because there isn't a way to regulate the brewing temp and the swings tends to kill the yeast.
I want to get a cheap costco chest freezer and put a temp control probe in it to keep the temps around 66F. Or maybe I can find a used chest freezer.

the beer was enh. need to try again but over the winter, bugs and mice got into the grain, so need to get more. did end up getting a chest freezer and it works great at keeping the fermenting the same temp. Very important to keep fermenting at about +- 6 degrees F
It's been a while since I updated soap making stuff. Mostly been keeping the website going and shipping soap orders. I have incense, but its not listed on the website. Been tossing incense in with soap orders as a bonus. Need to make a lot of stuff, until now its been too cold on the weekends to do anything. I'll take pictures of the new stuff as I get to it.

IIT we discuss and study the Bible. I will be using the King James Version and will take the stance of a fundamental literalist, which is a bit redundant, but these days there exist many that claim to be fundamental but reject the literal interpretation of Scripture when they encounter something they don't agree or understand. I am not a Bible scholar, I'm not a pastor, I don't currently attend any denomination's church service. I'm just an anon that really like to study the Bible. Feel free to argue with me, I could be completely wrong and I hope to learn more about the Bible along the way.
I will post below my first study topic and what I have researched about it. Hopefully it will be interesting and somewhat engaging.

A series of stories, yes. But we didn't start with the first story, so it is like walking into the movie part way and not wanting to know who the hero or villain is. You can ignore them, but you are going to lose parts that are needed to be able to build wisdom with, such as that this book is a series of things that would benefit you to listen to with to the degree that the person who is telling us is a master of wisdom both by gift and experience and the one that heard it didn't listen destroyed a whole kingdom. That is how you begin to build off of what is written. It isn't just nice sayings. It was life or death for the one that the writer wanted to reach but couldn't. Now we see that the intent of the text isn't to demean, but an attempt to preserve life and to cherish it.
>his name was Yodheshuvauhe
Never heard of it before. I guess I will do some exploring to see if there is any text that references this to cross-reference with the Bible and we can set up some lessons on that as well.

A quick search for the word Yodheshuvauhe alone yielded no results, but the search for "Yodheshuvauhe name" came up with a couple. The closest result was a name website that stated: 2 people from Malta and South Africa agree the name Yodhevavhe is of Hebrew origin and means "God's name".
The other results were different Hebrew names of God:
Yhvh: LORD (often rendered in all capital letters in English translations to distinguish it from other titles)
Original Word: יְהוָֹה
Part of Speech: Proper Name
Transliteration: Yhovah
Pronunciation: yah-VEH or yah-WEH
Phonetic Spelling: (yeh-ho-vaw')
Definition: LORD (often rendered in all capital letters in English translations to distinguish it from other titles)
Meaning: Jehovah
Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew verb הָיָה (hayah), meaning "to be" or "to exist."
Yeshua (Hebrew: יֵשׁוּעַ, romanized: Yēšūaʿ) was a common alternative form of the name Yehoshua (יְהוֹשֻׁעַ, Yəhōšūaʿ, 'Joshua') in later books of the Hebrew Bible and among Jewish people of the Second Temple period. The name corresponds to the Greek spelling Iesous (Ἰησοῦς), from which, through the Latin IESVS/Iesus, comes the English spelling Jesus.

The name corresponds to the Greek spelling Iesous (Ἰησοῦς), from which, through the Latin IESVS/Iesus, comes the English spelling Jesus.

Yodheshuvauhe is not the 'correct spelling' it's a phonetization, because He is spoken of in - iirc - sumerian tablets

I couldn't find what you were referring to so far. I did look up Sumerian gods to see if it came up, but I can't find it so far. Unless I am overlooking it, I searched through the wiki of Sumerian gods and couldn't find it. I did find interesting ones that have gnostic parallels, possibly inspiring some of the gnostic texts, so that might be interesting to go over sometime.

One problem plaguing a lot of people these days, especially burgers like myself, is that many people eat out at restaurants too much instead of preparing home cooked meals. Eating out is frequently both more expensive and less healthy for you than a home cooked meal. Furthermore, many people live with a limited library of meals that they know how to prepare and don't realize the culinary possibilities that are right in front of them.
The purpose of this thread is to try to break that habit of eating out and to make cooking at home become the norm in our lives. Please share meal ideas and how to prepare them here. All meals are welcome, although preferably we should post meals that are easy to prepare so that novice cooks will not be intimidated by the prospect of preparing them for themselves. Even simple sandwiches are fair game. Sometimes that may mean cutting corners with pre-made mixes instead of preparing everything from scratch.
Remember that the goal isn't necessarily to post the most inexpensive meals or the healthiest meals, although those meals are certainly very welcome. The goal is to encourage people to dust off their kitchen appliances and flex their atrophied cooking muscles. I realize that this opens the door to culinary nightmares like /tg/'s infamous meat-bread, but so be it. Let's get cooking!

>castor oil
please, no one try this.
With the exception of vegetable shortening, if the fat you're cooking with is solid at room temperature, you're safe. American 'olive oi' is a cheap lie, just like walmart bread. Peanut oil is how you weed out the weak ones, but is second only to avocado oil for smoke point. You can keep butter from burning by mixing equal volume of olive oil (even the cheap shit). Canola/vegetable oil is how you get soibois.

DO NOT INGEST IT
Before the pharmaceutical companies seized the market, I am talking 80/100 years ago, castor oil was universally used as a strong laxative to relieve constipation.

>the fat you're cooking with is safe
Beef tallow or lard should be refrigerated, especially if previously smoked. Cooking oil is among the only shelf-stable solid-fat.

I think castor oil was like that back in the day because it wasn't filtered as good as it is now. The way they filter it now is with diatomaceous earth in a multi-stage press.
If it is not filtered, the leftover proteins from the castor bean will for sure cause diarrhea (not necessarily a bad thing).
Also, a lot of people freak out from 'but ricin protein kills!' argument. It really doesn't. Chewing up and eating castor beans never hurt anyone, and castor oil never hurt anyone. Supposedly only soviet russia managed to kill somebody with ricin. The ricin protein is very very fragile, and the simple act of pressing castor beans to extract the oil destroys that harmful protein.
Castor oil at the beginning of the industrial revolution was used to lubricate engines because it is stable to a very high temp (about 500f). They stopped using it because it left a residue, but kept it as an oil additive for a while longer with the idea that the residue helps seal imperfect valves.
So no, I don't see what the problem is to cook with castor oil. It is quite unlike any other plant extracted oil because it is (the only?) source of ricinoleic acid. One of the only liquid fatty acids that is as stable as tallow.
Never deepfried anything with it before, but I have used it as cooking oil without issue.

Well, what gets me is the unvalidated or even referenced assertion
>I believe is subtly whitepilled enough for your tastes. Having read the 5-page preview on Amazon, I wonder what it is about the book that the poster feels is expressly suitable for OP, and why the arbitrary criteria of 'subtly whitepilled'? If the author really wanted to draw interest to the book, shouldn't they consider at least posting the back cover spiel? Nah, this smells of artifice and blatant self-promotion.

I made this thread for myself, however, you can still use it. This is where I'm gonna put all my random ideas for stories and write them down.
Essentially, my wish is to fill this thread with a bunch of excerpts from different story ideas I have in one place.
I may even post my planning of stories and other random ideas for how to improve my writing process.
So feel free to share you own excerpts of stories, writing advice, or general ideas for stories here if you feel like, otherwise I'll fill this hopefully with my own stuff.

Cinder Fall had black hair. Her hair looked almost like it enveloped her head fully. Her bangs seemed to erupt from a point to the left above her forehead and pour back over her scalp. The bangs covered her left eye and the scar she had there. A rhomboid black crystal earring hung from her left ear. Her dress was red. Her gloves were black and gleaming. Her eyes were amber. Her one visible eyes shined with exhausted resentment. Her waist was thin and her dress clung to her body. Her breast were handfuls.

gg ez, Mr. Reaper
I checkmated the reaper yesterday,
again.
I give him queen odds.
I give him more moves.
I give myself a blindfold,
as if I have something to prove.
I move my knight to an outpost.
He threaten.
I move back.
I make progress.
He resets it.
I start anew.
The knight has jumped around in a circle,
like the arms of a clock,
or the seasons.
The board remains identical but the move tally doesn't.
"Chess is boring," I say.
"Could be worse. We could be playing strip poker," says the reaper.
"It's the same thing over and over and over again. This game is too long," I complain again.
"Be proud. Few have lasted as long as you have against me ," he says.
"Blast it! I hung a piece."
"There's no reason to be mad over that, what's done is done and cannot be changed," said the reaper before he raged over losing one of his own pieces.
"Well, that's checkmate," I say.
I hate winning.

Anyway, fuck.
My name is Twilight Sparkle.
It wasn't too long ago I was just an ordinary, run of the mill talking horse, working the homicide beat in Canterlot.
But life has a funny way of throwing you curve balls, if you know what I mean?
I guess my story really began on the day of the funeral.
It was my partner that had died.
Sonic the Hedgehog.
Probably the best cop I've ever known.
Maybe even the best cop to ever walk a beat.

Poor Sonic.
He was so fast.
But he wasn't fast enough to outrun that train.
I remember it was raining cats and dogs that day.

me discussin why I should be able to say niggeer with chagpt if u wonder about context if anyone is even reading this lmao^^
"When Black artists use it in rap, it’s about reclaiming a term that was used to hurt them"
They have been reclaiming it for probably around decades now. What's the purpose of that? Is it meant to hurt them less by making them use to it? Well, that has kinda backfired since people are still sensitive about it if a white person says it. Or, idk what purpose its suppose to serve but if they didn't call themselves the n-word, I don't think anything would be all that different and at least I wouldn't be able to bring it up as counter point to why I can't say it. Secondly, I don't think that, the history of oppression really applies today anymore, what I mean is, a lot of black guys probably grew up playing shadow the hedgehog like white kids did. Neither of these parties experienced that oppression. I don't think it's healthy to give one side justification to be more mad than another in the case of interpersonal drama just because one uttered a words they shouldn't, when both parties are kinda unrelated to the events. Like, I'm not my father so whatever he did, I didn't and I'm not guilty of it. I mean it also sort of implies that race reality when you say that "blacks" not "whites" are allowed to say it. But that begs the question, who is white and who is black? How do we know? Were do we draw the line? Which is also something society can't make up their minds on.
On to the subject of shock humor. I watched part of the "Drawn together" movie on a stream. I kinda disliked it cause I'm not that big of a fan of gross out humor but as they are kinda a crossover of cartoon styles, they visited what was obviously a parody of South Park. The character they interacted with said that their show needed to go to make a point land to get point for their show since it was disgusting for the sake of just being disgusting. I mean, thought that movie sucked and that I even took with me something from it, the irony isn't lost on me, but they do have point here. Ultimately, if you want to make a point, you don't need satire or irony to do so. In fact, hypothetically, if you make your arguement as impersonal as you can then, people are less likely to be hurt and more able to view your arguement from and objective stadnpoint. So really South Park doesn't need to have shock humor at all since they can make points anyway.

Words hurt. This is true. But people need to say what they think. So the way to do this without hurting is by making it clear that you're intetions are not to hurt. That way you don't hurt.
