Worthy of repost in shower thoughts!

I’m a man whore. Of all the sorts of sexuality, that’s the one I can’t wrap my head around. Bi is kinda hard. “You don’t have much of a preference?!” But I can get it. Kinda.

“I have no desire to fuck anything.” HOW NOT?!

Having lived Hurricane Ivan, shit like this shakes me to the core. That’s death you’re watching.

It was the locals who refused spending on alarm systems, in a blue county. In general, your point still stands.

You’ve never personally seen that sort of death and destruction. I can tell.

Been a functioning alcoholic my whole adult life. Got my first bad test for liver enzymes. Looked the numbers up, holy shit that’s fucking off the scale! Quit kratom powder for 2 weeks, keep drinking as normal, perfect retest.

Doc: “I’m so proud of you!” Uh…?

Another anecdote: Good friend crashed her liver with Tylenol. This was before it was widely known to fucking kill you. Hardcore alcoholic. 90-proof generic vodka, hiding bottles kinda alki. She got a transplant after being in a coma for 2-months, poster child for success! Doctors wanted her to speak at medical events as to how she no longer needed anti-rejection drugs after only 18-months. Imagine that!

Surgeon to family: “Believe it or not, her alcoholism had nothing to do with her liver failure.”

All that to say, yeah, other factors we didn’t evolve for can kill your liver. We been drinking for 10,000 years, the weak livers are largely weeded out.

Let’s hear from Kurt Vonnegut!

“Beer, of course, is actually a depressant, but poor people will never stop hoping otherwise.” I feel personally attacked. :(

Anyway, Julie got run over by a random dude while crossing the corner with her husband, my best friend. So it goes.

Great article! So I understand the place is still standing and we’re still experimenting? Had no idea!

Donald Trump: ‘What you’re seeing and what you’re reading is not what’s happening’

Yes, and…?

I don’t game anymore but I am fucking HYPE! If there’s an option to play first-person, I’m buying.

I feel sorry for Europeans who aren’t geared for this. Couple of years ago a monster heat dome sat on the Pacific Northwest. Many of my coworkers lived in and around Seattle and were suffering the lack of AC. My brain can’t imagine living without.

Want to solve the evil landlord problem? These are the evil landlords, not some dude with a few houses to rent. Blocking these sales is one of the no-brainer solutions we need, but fuck no, our politicians are bought out.

^ Channeling Slaughter House 5

American planes, full of holes and wounded men and corpses took off backwards from an airfield in England. Over France a few German fighter plans flew at them backwards, sucked bullets and shell fragments from some of the planes and crewmen. They did the same for wrecked American bombers on the ground, and those planes flew up backwards to join the formation.

The formation flew backwards over a German city that was in flames. The bombers opened their bomb bay doors, exerted a miraculous magnetism which shrunk the fires, gathered them into cylindrical steel containers, and lifted the containers into the bellies of the planes. The containers were stored neatly in racks. The Germans below had miraculous devices of their own, which were long steel tubes. They used them to suck more fragments from the crewmen and planes. But there were still a few wounded Americans, though, and some of the bombers were in bad repair. Over France, though, German fighters came up again, made everything and everybody good as new.

When the bombers got back to their base, the steel cylinders were taken from the racks and shipped back to the United States of America, where factories were operating night and day, dismantling the cylinders, separating the dangerous contents into minerals. Touchingly, it was mainly women who did this work. The minerals were then shipped to specialists in remote areas. It was their business to put them into the ground, to hide them cleverly so they would never hurt anybody ever again.

Agreed, but it’s still astonishing how many videos we still get of bad police behavior.

Life sciences are where this sort of thing will shine.

The GOP hasn’t used those words in years, yet their voters still perceive them that way.

Watching Mamdani interview Trump voters really woke me.

People can’t see past the tip on their nose and vote on what’s in their wallet today. I’ve had people tell me they voted for President by comparing their tax returns.

The BBB is so much worse than we’re talking about. A lot of American’s will get a few hundred, maybe $2,000, more back and say, “That Trump fella’s the man for me!”

I’m stunned his handlers don’t have better control over this man. Narcissists are stupid easy to manipulate, and this one’s eat up with dementia.

So, to my fellow Americans in NYC, how are those gun laws working out? That’s a smartass question, but more seriously, what will you do when the Gestapo comes rolling down Flatbush Avenue?

I’ll never find it again, but a few years ago jihadis went rampaging down the streets in Iran, randomly shooting into apartment blocks. All I could think was, “At least that can’t happen here.”

American, white, liberal, redneck gun nut here. If you’re talking about “defund the police”, that’s yet another idiot liberal slogan that misses the mark. The idea is to take police funds and pay for workers who can handle situations police should never have been sent to. Want to kill yourself? Call the cops!

The far right loves cops because cops are on their side, or are perceived to be. To put it bluntly, guns are for shooting marauding black people, not white people. See all the stories about white people being shocked when law enforcement doesn’t go their way? Yeah.

Also, I suspect people who are anti-gun have never had violence inflicted upon them, or cops who are far away, or haven’t had a bear wander in the dog door, or haven’t had an enraged redneck struggling to be polite because they’re visibly armed. In related news, my MAGA neighbor came stomping down here to kick my ass, turned right the fuck around when I went inside for my .45.

I could write all night on the subject, but let me leave it at this: Now is not the fucking time for Americans to disarm themselves. The only reason fascists haven’t run us completely over is that they know there will be a real chance we’ll fucking kill them. Look where the ICE raids are happening, in the places where guns are the most suppressed.

Yes, this all sucks, but it’s where we’re at in America.
