She committed the sin of being a woman

I get IDKsterling, shorts by miniminuteman, institute for justice, tasting history, stuff like that, then occasional cat/funny/meme videos that are largely benign

“Questioning me is intolerance, and you can’t tolerate intolerance, or something” -Dessalines

Hah, maybe. I am gunning for just going full tilt and naming their next daughter Shub-Niggurath

Can we just start using cosmic horror entity names already? Reighfyl is definitely something I could see being some sort of Lovecraftian alien

I was banned from an amusement park because, many years ago. They sold drinks, in cups, that were shaped like bongs. My friend and I were sitting in a small pavilion area, that was in a rather remote corner of the park. We were smoking cigarettes, which was fine where we were, and my friend and I were talking about turning the cup into a bong. At one point he stuck his face on the opening like you would a bong. Some people, in the next pavilion over, were staring at us, then left. We were punk kids, like the music, so we were kinda used to random people staring at us, and we thought nothing of it.

About 20 minutes pass and a cop walks up to us. He asks us to turn over our paraphernalia, and leave the park, and he wont arrest us. We give him a WTF look, and say what paraphernalia? He says people reported seeing us smoking from a large, purple, water pipe. Friend says “you mean like this?” and holds up the cup. He looks at it for a good 10 seconds, and then says yeah that looks like a bong, I can see why they may have thought that. He then told us about how he was a punk, pulled up his sleeves to reveal GBH, and Casualties, tattoos. We commented on how he isn’t a punk, now that he is a cop, those things are mutually exclusive. Short conversation on punk ethics ensues. He then says sorry for bothering us, and walks away. About 10 minutes later we are walking back into the main area of the park when we see punk cop walking with a man and starts flagging us down. The man is the park manager, and even though the cop straight up said it was a cup THEY SOLD, he wanted us kicked out, and trespassed. Cop asked us if we were going to leave now that we are asked, and we said yes, and left. However he stopped us at the gate demanding the cop get our IDs to put on file, cop tells him we left when asked, he can’t actually write us up as a trespass if we leave upon request, unless we come back. So we started walking back to our car, and as we are getting up to it, the manager runs, literally runs, up to us and takes pictures of us, and our car.

Thing is, our friend circle included the daughter of the owner of the park. So we called her and told her what happened. Ban pulled, though that same manager was still there the next time we went, so he wasn’t fired. We also refer to that guy as punk cop to this day.

most populations around the world are slowing in growth, plateauing, or declining. Seems as people become wealthier, and more educated, very young people begin having less/no kids, for the most part, and this lack of teen births is what is largely being lost when we see these declines.

This has been what I do with mine. Most of it is pretty fucking “well duh” type stuff, however working with people to hold you, and you hold yourself, accountable for making progress in these ways. The part of having someone to hold you to account, this is often where a therapist is the most useful. However, in this situation, this isn’t an option, so you need to reach out to others.

Take your meds. If you need meds, but can not currently access them due to finance issues, there are sources out there that may be able to help. This is not often easy to navigate, but it may be something that saves you.

Try any method you can find, that is from a reputable source, to keep your sleep on a schedule, and get at least 6 hours per night. This is way more important than many wish, but generally everyone knows it is vital to health, including mental health.

Make yourself accountable to someone for daily improvement progress - eg find a friend, family member, online gaming buddy, whatever, that you report to, on a routine basis, to report the regularity of maintaining these routines. This means whatever you need to do to keep your living space clean, and in order, routine exercise, adherence to a healthy diet, maintaining the framework to keep yourself on track, like keeping your phone calendar up date, keeping lists of chores/errands you need to do, working on maintaining a hierarchy of needs (most immediate things to do, and most important), etc. This is the big one though, this person is allowed to criticize you in your failings on this, and you need to take that criticism, and use it as a call to focus on these areas. You may need more than one person willing to help. If you are isolated, there are online groups for these things. No this isn’t a great alternative, but it is better than nothing, and living in despair.

You need to audit your behavior. You need to make a record of the things you do that are mentally taxing, and thus can harm your mental health. Do you spend all day, every day, at work, or stressing about work? You need to find a place you can vent this stress, and look for advice on how to disengage with work enough stop burn out, but still do what is expected. If what is expected is just too much, you need to recognize it, and work on finding a lower stress income. Do you doom scroll? Well look into apps that help you regulate the time you spend online. Also, audit your experience with the platforms you engage with. If you find one is mostly something that adds to your stress, depression, despair, etc. work on just cutting that out completely. Look at your personal relationships, and really try to assess whether or not your relationships are healthy, if not, how can they become healthy? If there is not foreseeable way to make it healthy, go low-contact, pilot no contact. If your daily life has any improvement because you no longer maintain contact, then it is time to drop them.

Social activity. This will depend greatly on how much socializing, and what kinds, you can handle, etc. This one is much more tricky, especially since anxiety, anhedonia, and other negative aspects of your mental health really affect how hard this is. However, you need to work on getting some sort of in person social contact. It needs to be regular, and I don’t mean like all the time, but that there is a routine set-up for it. Local hobby groups, activities at the local library, publicly held events you may attend, try to work out a specific time period where you, and at least one friend/family member, can spend that time together doing an agreed upon activity.

Do things that allow you to put your thoughts into more of an order than they may currently be. This could be a journal, personal blog, etc. Just something where you can dump your brain, look at what came out, and apply some structure to it.

Spend time outside. Be it with people, or alone, just force yourself to spend time outside, especially in places you can see nature, see green, etc. If you just sit there observing it, it will help to maintain wellness. This is subtle, and takes a while, however it does have a real impact.

There is more, and I can ask my therapist, when I see her this week, for resources for all this, and I can update with what she says, if she is willing, which I do not see why she wouldn’t be.

Hexbear claims a majority trans, grad, and ml claim very large lgbtq+ communities too. Hopefully not many of them are in the apologists, cause life will very likely get worse.

Too many resources. Just put the motherfuckers on a boat, take it to the most remote part of the pacific, and strand it there.

I am willing to start crowd funding their immigration

You can have criminal records sealed, depending on what it is, etc.

I mean, I get your point, but you can pay for an ad that looks just like a google search result to be on the top of certain searches. This will often result in the ad link being the top result in the actual rankings. This is usually what people mean when they shit like this, and paying to be at the top of google search results.

Man, there was an example that was actually done by history, right there for you

“The blacks clearly have natural physical advantages over white people. They have had hundreds of years of breeding for strength, and endurance, from selective buck breeding of the slave holders. They have no place playing baseball with with white men.”

Yeah, the only places I commonly see, where the urinals do not have partitions that block the view of other people, in the bathrooms seems to be old places that refuse to get rid of their trough urinal, bars (though this often because they have bathrooms not meant for multiple people, and large bars/clubs have largely moved on), and arenas that have walls with dozens of them. The last one is likely being cheap.

I never said they didn’t take control, and they are radicals, I hear that descriptor attached to them all the time. Also, this specific unit was something I used to show that Australia has long term weapons sales desires with an apartheid state. When a government takes foreign aid, rather than distribute it, it is often said that they appropriated it, or stole it, or high-jacked it, whatever. Even beyond that, it wasn’t actual weapons, literally anything can be used as a weapon, so we either say literally everything going to a place is a weapons sales/trade/donation, or we reserve that name for things built specifically to be weapons.

Also, do not gloss over how colonized people often end up having to rely on radical elements of their population to fight against the colonizers. Do not gloss over the maneuvers bibi, and the israeli government, performed to make sure hamas stays in power, because they use them as a PR shield, like their soldiers record themselves using palestinians as bullet shields. Israel is the colonizing force here, the terrorist guerrilla government of hamas is a result of reaction to this colonization.

Selling weapons to a military you are aware is in the long process of violently persecuting millions of people, in their country, with those weapons, is not the same as providing non-weapons to the persecuted, and having radicals fighting against the colonizing force appropriating them. This is a bad faith argument.

correct, to a point. most of the time they will only kick people for expressing extreme and highly intolerant views, or for fighting in their server over it, but theoretically they could just kick anyone who talks about any topic they don’t like under that guise. Now take this position, vague laws allowing for power abuse, power abuse is awarding to many people on its own, especially those drawn to positions of authority, then add to it training regimen that teach these practices, periodic seminars to reinforce the practice, personal profit motive to enforce this practice, and a societal structure that pressures them to do so. This is machine for shaking down the general public under color of law.

There are many, many, places all over the US that basically fund their local government by pulling over people who don’t live there, and fining them. They absolutely abuse their authority to do this. There are so many infractions, many very vaguely worded, and broad, the cops can basically pull over anyone, just because they want to, and they do. There are also plenty of people out there with long standing video evidence of being harassed by the police, because the cops don’t like legal things they do, or don’t like their families.

If you think this is the end of these programs, prepare to be wrong.

Well, they could stop sending weapons to israel, instead of just denying that they do.
