Let me out of jail

Choose your flavor of charlatan

Not having children is my retirement. I will probably work till I'm old and gray so I just tuck what I can away, buy things that hold value, and live my life.

That’s not how nicknames work

Tbh…just lie. Base it firmly in reality though and get your story straight. Astroturf the entire reference with people you know, who may or may not have been involved with the reality. Make it believable to the rest of the application. Chances are your references will be passed over entirely anyway while whoever is doing the bare minimum to get through their work day checks over your application.

This may or may not be good advice. 🤷

Well said.

Took me a while to recognize the instilled behavior, and even longer to unwind the tendrils and it’s effects on my life in general. Capitalism has instilled a martyr complex into us.

I am a go where the wind blows kind of person and settled on working for myself. Much out of necessity as well, cause a company would absolutely not hire me anymore. I am still “poor”, but I make my own schedule at least. If I’m gonna get fucked, I’d like to choose how.

Hey you sound just like me. If your going to move, perhaps somewhere like PA? It’s got the benefit of being a battleground state, and there’s more than enough rural areas, even relatively close to the cities, where you can continue your hermitage. I’m doing something similar (:

I believe money is used to replace God so a select few can have unlimited access to the “source”. A false “god” is then permitted to be pushed on the people for further oppression.

It’s already extremely easy for LE to drum up basically whatever charge and stick it to you, for the majority of citizens with no funds for a lawyer.

We’ve already got the plate scanners. Everytime I drive by one, my file pops as a red flag and a stop is more than likely, just to “check in” with me, usually with some false pretense like “i thought your window was cracked, my bad, but where you going tonight?” I’m not technically on paper, but I am treated as such. Easy arrest potential with some bs probable cause.

The fact that it will continue to go further doesn’t surprise me. Makes the job even easier for them. If you aren’t a good consumer, you will be prosecuted.

It’s actually all my fault, everyone.

This is quite revealing. I’m hyper focused on some of my past and present behavior now and feel like a damn hypochondriac at this point.

AP psychology allows Florida to send Desantis back to caves.

Guaranteed they feel this and lives are slightly better without the cops running down on them 247 like some tough guys. Having to move all your shit can be the last thread for some. It’s an extremely volatile lifestyle. I’m all for ease of suffering in anyway for this community. I really wish it was not like this. Lots of people with little shot. Lots of people with many but wrong circumstances. Lots of people. Lots of problems. I’d hate to ever have to be the cop to come and sweep the riff raff away, who probably has somewhat personal interactions with many of these people often. There’s obviously way too many issues on every level here and it’s overwhelming for my small brain.

What a wild ass time to be alive in America. I’m sure our whole experiment will end well! If only everyone could just be relatively chill and not feed on drama 24 7 like it’s oxygen.

That is many people’s mentality, yes. It probably depends if you were the one being tortured or were close. Pain can be ignored if not directly felt, especially if it means whatever you think your survival entails.

I’m not comfortable with it, but I’m not comfortable with life either.

Oh it’s finally ready to lead us now!

Human suffering is power. Kind of crazy imo. I’m imaging a bit of ritual too, like a sacrifice.

I’m just incompetent all around 💁

It really does all start with you. Self acceptance, reflection, and mindfulness go a long way in dealing with others. Love yourself, others will love you. Practice it. Practice doing it in the wild. Don’t get hung up on how you come across. Life is a joke in the grand scheme. This mentality tends to draw people to you as well. Not sure if this is good advice but it’s worked for me. Also, know yourself and your limits. Set boundaries. Have realistic goals and expectations. People will disappoint you, doesn’t mean you have to disappoint yourself. 🙃

That’s some excellent advice friend.
