No that is still true. They are against America. That’s why they don’t care about the constitution.

This reminds me of a joke…

A new monk arrives at the monastery and is assiged to help the other monks in copying the old texts by hand. When he looks closer, however, he notices that they are copying copies, not the original books. The new monk goes to the head monk to ask him about this. He points out to the head monk that should there be an error in the first copy, that error would be continued in all of the other copies. “We have been copying from the copies for centuries,” says the head monk, “however, I must admit you make a very good point, my son.” The head monk then goes down to the cellar with one of the copies to check it against the original. Hours pass and no one sees him, so one of the monks decides to go downstairs to look for him. When he arrives he hears loud sobbing coming from the back of the cellar and finds the old head monk leaning over one of the original books crying. “What’s wrong,” he asks the old monk. “The word is CELEBRATE!” sobs the old monk.

You know what? You’re right, reader—I deserve a little treat.

You do deserve it damnit! I know everything is 100%, but it will never be. Just because other people made bad decisions doesn’t mean you didn’t do what you were supposed to do. It doesn’t mean you aren’t living you best life. So fuck it and treat yo self. Everybody talking shit probably sucks anyway.

I wanted to disagree with you or come up with an example of when having self worth would be better than the concept not existing, but I can’t think of anything. Maybe I had too many shrooms on my last trip, but I get what you are saying.

I used to care about pineapple on pizza till I remembered I’m not eating other people’s pizza. I tried it before. I just think warm pineapple is odd.

I did notice some pizza that Japan made. All that mayonnaise and corn made me realize pineapples on pizza aren’t that crazy.

I feel he is the only person I’ve seen try to go around and sound like a sane person about this shit. He let’s me know I’m not crazy. I hear him from different sources too. He’s not just trying for a sound bite on legacy media.

Nice. I feel the cycle is complete.

You need to look local. Check local co-ops. They understand more community mindset and you might be able to meet people there.

Without knowing specific details I can’t make specific answers, but there are websites that try to organize local events. Not political, but you can use that as a jumping off point since everything is political even if people don’t want to admit it. Eventbrite.com has some local events get together for different areas. Usually anyone volunteering at local ‘clean the bay’ events would have better guidance.

My point is go do those things and ask people there. Community and organizing is how we will get through this. It’s tough and I’m just trying to talk to people that I know that are struggling and help them anyway I can.

Quick vent. My job introduced OneDrive and cloud shit through Microsoft. Yeah. I still have to tell my computer to save on itself. I’m not using OneDrive.

I hear my coworkers bitch about it all the time. It’s not syncing. I can’t save or change this or that. I can’t find it when I’m trying to open it. Why is this green or yellow? What’s up with this check? They always ask me for help because I’m the younger one that knows more about computers. I respond that I don’t do cloud shit. I want to know where my info is, but they keep on wanting me to figure it out for them.

I guess cloud computing is my old man yelling at clouds line.

Is there an xkcd comic for when people find an xkcd comic for everything?

Well. Maybe only person in the states. We need to look to Brazil and the EU.

Yes. A couple nerds invented a way to process and manufacture steel quickly and Carnegie bought the patent and made all the steel.

Way to not add anything of real value Carnegie. Anyone in his position would have said, oh let me buy that and then produce my steel faster than anyone else in the world. The only reason he had wealth to do that was luck. Someone took him under his wing as a kid and raised in up in the business/manufacturing/world. Carnegie worked hard, but he had a lot of luck.

Not to completely shit on Carnegie. He started donating some of his wealth away and tried to convince his peers to do the same. He could have been paying his workers more the whole time instead, but waiting to the end helps some workers that might have still been alive, at least.

had on a fucking pasty.

I agree the wardrobe malfunction was a bullshit reason, but it wasn’t a pasty. It was a piercing that looked like a sun and had her nipple through the center. Again, still BS reasoning being pushed by people with too much power.

Some places have anti-slapp lawsuits but only places with strong consumer protection.

He kinda was, if you look at the satanic principles and how Jesus treated people. And beat the conmen out of the church because he knew violence was needed sometimes.

Sorry. Hurricane warnings and forecasts are only for our members with the diamond package. Would you like to upgrade now for $49.99, so you know when you should evacuate?

They found $4.7 bill last year in back taxes. They will find a lot less than that going after the lower income brackets.

It was really just the first one he saw that they won. There were more timelines, Strange just got tired and picked this one.

People also turn 1 year old the day before their birthday. Like you said a babies first birthday is the start of their second year. Meaning you can legally purchase alcohol the day before your 21st or 18th birthday depending on your local laws.
