chatokun,

I don’t like em, but not to the level of gross. Pickles are gross for me, olives I can either move to the side or ignore as a mildly worse meal.

chatokun,

Plus plenty of us Americans mock that stuff too. In the state I live in, a man was killed by people loving guns like this because he was black while jogging. At the time, I was living in a city called White, GA. Down the street was a lumberyard that flew Confederate and Trump flags. I’m a person who since I was young loved exploring places in woods etc, but I’m rather terrified to do it in this day and area, especially with my skin color. A lot of us are trapped by circumstances here, so that comment felt more like a

“You complain about America, yet you live there. Curious.” type of comment.

chatokun,

And even older: Pinky, are pondering what I’m pondering?

chatokun,

My younger sister has (in the past, quite a while ago, but still) gotten me a cease and desist during a visit and torrenting without a VPN, so I wouldn’t say no way.

chatokun,

Being a support person, if I was rich enough to frivolously buy systems, I’d have at least one of each as a reference system. Yes, I know, vms, but that’s for saving money/space. Especially MAC I’d have some hardware too. Definitely not a main system though. I currently have a broken Mac and a cheap chromebook for that reason, though due to being broken the Mac is rather useless now. When it worked I often used it to help test/troubleshooting customer stuff.

chatokun,

Nice, I’ve been looking for one of these that worked in Windows (I know, I know, but I don’t have time to redo everything if I switched atm).

chatokun,

Testicles make more sense because it’s easy to acquire, you just butcher the animal. Same with blood. Milk is also produced regularly with a little more work. Semen requires ejaculation AFAIK, which feels both much harder and much weirder to perform.

Conservative Plan Calls for Dozens of Executions if Trump Wins (www.thedailybeast.com)

A conservative plan for Donald Trump’s potential transition into the presidency calls for dozens of prisoners to be executed, according to HuffPost. An 887-page plan by Project 2025, led by the ultra-conservative Heritage Foundation, says that if elected, Trump should make a concerted effort to execute the remaining 40...

chatokun,

I grew up JW, and all the scriptures used to fight against abortion are in the first half of the Bible, before Jesus is involved. To quote a certain former Trump staffer…

Jesus ain’t say that.

chatokun,

Most Christian denominations do believe that to some extent, though some (including my example) view them as strictly different beings, with only 1 true God. They view Jesus as next in the hierarchy but still below capital G God, and view the Holy Spirit as just a tool, like say The Force.

chatokun,

Sync and I was already used to it when I abandoned Reddit.

chatokun,

What? No, those will often look bad due to differences in refresh, making those lines you see in screenshots of people who do that. If you want a good screenshot, you don’t use a phone to do it.

chatokun,

It took me well into my 30s to walk away from religion. Especially in an isolated environment, it’s likely he doesn’t really understand his choices, and though he has had a much more comfortable way of life than us, it’s still hard to transition to a much less forgiving way of life. I had to leave behind friends and family I still wish I had a good relationship with, but the cultlike environment (JW) is specifically designed to discourage leaving. Learning about other viewpoints are heavily discouraged, as is associating with people not in the same belief structure.

While mine was religion, with how polarizing his father is and the protection needed, I don’t doubt he had even less access to other people and viewpoints than I did. I at least got to meet people online, at work,and through shows (funny enough, Futurama was a huge part of breaking me away) to get some other viewpoints, but some of my friends were homeschooled and wouldn’t watch or be allowed to watch almost anything secular.

It’s why so many are afraid to allow kids to go to college (pretty discouraged by JW also), because they might change. I say at 18 the chance of someone in his position being able to get alternative experiences is slim to none.

chatokun,

Worse, iceberg lettuce. If the first one is also iceberg, pass.

chatokun,

No, you’re reading it wrong. The trolley destroys what it runs over. An easy way to imagine it instead of money’s say property. You have 4 people on one line, or your nice shiny car on another. If you choose the people over the car, you’ve killed 4 people just to keep your car. In like vein, this rich person can either destroy potential profits but save lives, or he can choose to save the profit over the lives of multiple people.

I don’t see how your version works: it would be destroying both.

chatokun,

They tried to make Oregon a whites only state a long while back. Not even wanting slaves, during 1857 when they applied for Statehood they both banned slavery and any free black people from existing in the state. It was more of a “We don’t even want to see them” kind of hatred.

chatokun,

I buy THC drinks online from 3Chi. I haven’t had an urge to try anything harder (in fact, I’m a bit scared of anything that might affect my heart (aside from booze becaus3 we all do at least one very stupid thing), and the only thing I do want to try but only with a good support group around is shrooms).

chatokun,

I’ve also been to Chicago once (going to an Anime con up there; was a meet up for AMV creators worldwide, and while I wasn’t one my brother was), but it was a chill and nice experience for me. The last time I heard gunshots was actually this past new years, when my neighbor fired off like 12-15 shots during fireworks (GA, not in Atlanta but not too far either).

chatokun,

Read some Stormlight Archive, and know that I am a stick.

chatokun,

Knowledge Fight takes a critical look at Alex Jones(I put this in every post I make about him because I can’t stand to listen to AJ direct, and I don’t want people thinking I do). Anyway, he goes out to break quite often shouting stuff like THEYRE COMING FOR YOU, THEY’RE COMING FOR YOU, THEY’RE COMING FOR YOU!!! after having discussed the “demonic antifa/BLM/democrats coming to your houses.”

Obviously not everyone is as sensationalist as Alex Jones, but he’s been bragging about how other places have started sounding like him. Including Joe Rogan (probably more on Vax and stuff like that, but still)

chatokun,

A-are you asking for accurate statistical analysis in c/funny?

chatokun,

Didn’t see this till I posted the other reply. I’d say your first one looks enough like a joke, but the second followup makes it look like you’re serious.
