Yarhar and all that

I said war! Huh! Good god y’all.

What is it good for? Doing this probably.

Oh yes, yesterday, that was when my troubles seemed so far away.

Yea, I can remember when the advice was to create a “handle” and never use your real details.

Remove “Burger Owner” from the headline.

That head really creeped me out.

Yea when I said that I excel at Excel I was somewhat exaggerating, much as I have at every job interview I’ve ever had. It’s become something of a reflex these days. But as someone else has said I think that particular issue is just down to Excel being crap.

Excel, it wouldn’t be useful but I’d still be great at it.

Like ze Germans

Can we admit how completely fucked we are? Donald Trump is destroying the American economy and the American empire.

You. How fucked you are. Also if you believe in “the American empire” maybe you should be.

Been 20 years exactly almost for an actual “concert”, like just seeing one or two bands. Travelling to a venue is expensive for me as I live in the middle of nowhere. Plus I don’t really have anyone to go with. I go to local gigs with my brother and his girlfriend once every month or two. They travel all over for concerts but I think I’d feel like a third wheel if I went with them, though I might tag along if it turns out they’re seeing a band I really want to at some point.

I went to some festivals in 2023, it feels easier to justify the cost of travel to see a bunch of bands over a whole weekend. Was actually going to go on my own but my brother came with before he got with his gf. Might actually do one on my own next year. Rebellion in Blackpool is great and indoors which is a big plus in the UK.

Sorry to hear that. I also lost a friend to addiction who’s experiences with older men in her formative years were unfortunately quite negative, which sent her down the addiction spiral and made her seek out more experiences with older men. Those experiences and the addiction both, I believe, ultimately stemmed from her father’s actions. His own addiction and abusive, neglectful behaviour being a result of trauma in his early life. I can’t speak to your friend’s past of course but I imagine men and substances filled a hole in her own life likely left by a similar generational trauma and abuse cycle.

Girls I was at school with used to get picked up by guys in cars when they were like 12 and 13 so those guys were at least 17. At 17 I wouldn’t have wanted to hang out with a 12 or 13 year old girl.

What did the karma coins actually do? Never understood that part of Reddit.

Nowadays, everybody wanna talk like they got somethin’ to say

But nothin’ comes out when they move their lips Just a bunch of gibberish

And motherfuckers act like they forgot about beans

The spez protests led to a lot of people sharing alternatives on Reddit and when I heard there was an open source alternative, checked it out and saw posts about Linux and beans I knew I’d never go back.

Yea my neighbours know I live alone and I can hear them so pretty sure they can hear me and must think I’m crazy.

If I’m walking around its likely I’ll be having a conversation with myself in my head which eventually ends up with me absent mindedly speaking to myself out loud so if I see someone in public I immediately try to shut myself up lest they think I’m truly mental.

CHD and Kennedy have relentlessly spread dangerous misinformation about the safe, lifesaving MMR vaccine, including that it causes autism (it does not) and even deaths (it does not).

So much better that she just died rather than got autism and then died.

Who?
