it’s crazy that you can just jump, and you go up for a bit.

Yes, as you implied, some have in their mind as realpolitik that refugee crises create opportunities for fascism, and that’s cool. It’s just practical politics to fuel climate change and war.

I would get letters from my grandma - long, winding beseeching me to come to the Lord or whatever, with often a specific date predicted in the near future of the end times. I never kept them because I was embarrassed. She was lonely and mentally ill, and probably trying to manipulate people into visiting her, but she also believed the shit she was saying, even though it kept changing, IMO.

I think that’s a little bit of what is going on with these signs

Yeah it’s strange. I don’t know how long it will take for AI to be surreptitious, less obvious, but it’s weird and scary.

There’s obviously a zillion open source games you could add, but I’m partial to pixel dungeon and its many variants

Go camping and it is so chill and sweet to hear owls talking to each other across a distance.

Yes, I spent my Saturday waiting for a video to load and it was an owl dancing in church. Worth it.

Who (!) misunderstands owls?? It is a big club though. Lots of spiders and bears.

That bridge needs more 11’8"

You described Lorena Bobbitt more or less. Ashli Babbitt was a Jan 6 rioter (at the u.s. capitol) shot by police.

Fuck this timeline.

Could be one and not the other. Could be after you die you become a happy sentient green baby poo only to get wiped away. Could be good things after tho

Cavalry is horse mounted soldiers. Calvary is some bible thing.

i didn’t mean to misrepresent myself. i speak german, but not natively. it is a fantastic language for terrifying phrases like “just chillin, how you?” or “weapons of mass destruction”. not doing it now because fuck the gimmick.

can’t disagree but it’s literally a stone age problem. the same logic has led to nuclear proliferation and doctrines of mutual assured destruction. that sounds much more terrifying in german but I can’t find the correct translation atm. not to mention capitalism and the proliferation of killing machines for profit.

in short, i think taking the bullets out of your stupid little gun is the right way to go. try it. you won’t die.

and that’s what your 2A right earns you. people with even less self-awareness or judgment than me are just walking around everywhere you go with guns in their pockets.

i’m a grownass middleaged dude who’s never shot anyone, just been very cautious and seen a lot of weird shit while enduring some mental health shit throughout. and i have a lifelong exposure to guns. I think I’ve been quite safe. if you don’t think i’m safe, then you absolutely should not be encouraging more firearm access.

so you dry your ass after using a bidet? paper or cloth?

i’m just not interested in killing anybody. i’m well-versed in crazy experiences, from inner city New Orleans to Sonora Desert meth heads or the average lunatic in Louisville. I am better off for not being prepared with a loaded gun many many times, because I definitely would have shot many different people.

yeah as a profligate alcoholic and terminally depressed person, i’m not hanging out with loaded guns. i’ve been trained to use them, been familiar with them for decades. also i’m just clumsy. i don’t have a military background, I know i can hit a target at a couple hundred yards with an M4, but that ancient Old Reliable .38 with no safety scares me.

it’s cool to learn about it now tho. i come from the era of Danger Mouse
