Idk I’ve always noticed he doesn’t give AF about reality. He just lies and if called out he just doubles down on his lies until he breaks the electorate and he gets elected again.

I used the same strategy to hide that I was smoking weed to my parents.

Also I never understood “take it slow”. What’s slow? 90 days? A year? 2 years? A decade?

Then there’s the “you should be single for a bit”. Okay I’ve been single for 5 months, but then “no I’ve been single for two years”. You mean I’m not supposed to have intimacy for some arbitrary amount of time? I’m supposed to ignore any advance by anyone no matter how great they may be? I’ve missed so many good eggs that way.

Right, I think I let this thread drifted into what someone should do generally. I’m trying to figure out what I can do. The thing is, I can’t own a gun because I’ve been in a mental ward. I’ve never fought anyone and at a deep level I don’t think I can actively kill anyone. Someone with the means and mentality should absolutely do that.

I’m looking more to see how I can use the tools I have to make a difference.

You’re right, this time may be different. It’s stopping a full on war with our family, so that may bring bigger and more explosive protests that could tip the scales.

Maybe I’ve been just expecting the worst outcome of any event now.

I’m not ruling out violence, I’m just ruling out ineffective violence. There are other avenues where violence may be more effective.

I guess the thing that stinks is I’m in a Blue™️ state and in one of the most uncooperative cities to the Trump administration.

That said while it feels like all the districts I’m in are further anti Trump to most, there are many shades of Blue™️ who may need pushing, and many kinds of bills to be pushed.

So yeah everyone listen to Zak

It’s not so much the violence, but the fact that it was for nothing. We’ve lost everything, and trying the same thing over and over just won’t cut it. I assume there will be protests, but I don’t think that’s going to be enough, and may not have the ROI we need.

Finally saw a VW Buzz on the streets- I fell in love instantly. Not sure of the specs but I think she’s mighty pretty and it makes me want to load up my band and do a cross country trip with a fun montage sequence.

Honestly I wanna do an expedition to the North Pole and see the sun do weird shit. Then treck to the South Pole so I can see the sun do weird shit but backwards. Like I know that sun is a weird freak when it doesn’t think you’re looking, that’s why it does it at the poles. Then along the way from North to south I’ll tell people how weird the sun is, and they’ll have to believe me because I’ve been there, and they’ll have to say “damn the sun is weird”. Sun’s going to be so embarrassed when everyone finds out how weird it is.

That or like go to Cancun or something. Anywhere that I can keep track of the sun that twisted freak you aren’t fooling me.

Love the free Luigi sentiment but let’s be frank the best way to honor him is to take down another Oligarch.

You mean to say I’ve been eating all this C4 for NOTHING!??

I’ve been ingesting copious amounts of C4 so if a cop tries to beat me up I’ll explode and kill everyone.

The country of “Disabled Retro Computer Nerd Land” sounds rad as hell, (the DRCN for short)

I’m on board except for the food variety, but I live in Chicago which attracts an amazing foodie scene. In bumbfuck Iowa you’re probably more likely to have trouble getting some good Thai food.

But if you use #6 every 10 hours you’ll stop aging altogether, so essentially it’s an immortality drug. If it is just the looks that stay, it still means your skin cells aren’t bogged down with broken and aged skin cells. You are now immune from skin cancer.

Just don’t sleep in over 10 hours and you’re good.

Lol fair

You mean Russian Oligarch and President of The United States Donald Trump works with Putin? I never./s

Yea, gotta be careful not to Say anything illegal

I wouldn’t call the last ~150 years a civil war at all. Civil wars are much worse than that.

But your observation that the split was never fully healed is fully correct.

I live in Chicago now and I’m proud of our city for resisting so hard.

With the ICE raids, Trump’s immigration thugs complained that Chicago is near impossible to work with because they are met with such fierce resistance. We’ve been prepped for how to deal with ICE, and Gov. Pritzker and Mayor Johnson have been helpful with that.

The main complaint is that we all know our rights and ICE can’t just bulldoze through our city. Guess we’re the town of law and order 🤷

Sorry NYC, your mayor is a chicken shit who would tattle on Anne Frank before the Nazis got to the door.
