Most of our write-ins are lumped together. Claudia de la Cruz only got nine votes here, one of them of course was me.
Midwest has been seeing a few spring-like tornado threats this past week.
Not sure if “psychotically” is the right term. One does not have to have a disorder separating them from reality to be reactionary. Though it is reactionary, for sure.
2024, the last free election the world would ever see…
Breaking in and freeing the Ood. They may not understand freedom, but they deserve it!
Glad Guts Berserk finally made it to space in his war on demons.
Well, it’s even weirder because, if I understood what I read correctly, the Typhlosion was the only party that really could consent. It talked to the girl both in a shifted human form and in its real form. The girl I can only assume was underage because they kept calling her a girl. So the Typhlosion was the real creeper. Also this took place in some ancient era where the boundary between Pokemon and humans was blurred. It has Japanese youkai vibes for sure. I don’t know about the other stories, though, I only heard the Typhlosion one.
‘Scooz me, I jus’… there we go
Obviously they’ll be playing Space Station 14 which could use more players and servers.
I went to my doctor appointment. Task: completed.
I think it would’ve been fairly easy for readers at the time to say “the monster’s a murderer, that’s the story.” It’s easy for others to say the monster’s a victim and not responsible for his actions. We see the two points of view throughout this comments. The comparison to an incel is almost silly, though. “Man decides women are The Problem and becomes dangerous” is different from “Man is abandoned and feared by his only parent at birth, he has the impulse control of a small child (recall he was literally just born) and he has the body of a very large adult man.” He even does try to be good, but is angered by people dehumanizing him for his appearance. (Dehumanizing people based on things they have no control over: sound familiar?) But then there’s the important bit: this does not absolve his crimes! He is, in fact, a murderer. But the people who hated him also bear responsibility. Most of all his parent who did no rearing, teaching, or literally anything but screaming and running bears responsibility. Is he a killer? Yes! Is he a victim? Yes! Is Victor responsible for everything? Also, yes! The people who rejected him responsible? Less so, but yes!
I could be remembering wrongly, but wasn’t the creature described as being uncannily attractive? Like maybe not conventionally so, but in some indescribable and uncomfortable way?
cost millions of taxpayer dollars in wrongful death and civil rights lawsuits
Good to see our priorities are straight. Yeah, some lives were lost, BUT THE MONEY!
So you’ll invite the underrepresented, marginalized folks and share a loving community free from private property; everyone sharing everything freely? Of course we’d like them all to believe in Jesus, but we won’t hate them if they don’t or try to shove it on them either.
We are this close to entombing our presidents in a golden throne and worshipping them for millenia.
I have a vague memory of a spaceship. Maybe i was firing a laser? I remember it being hard at first, but I Got Gud, and as an adult people are impressed with my typing speed.
Which is wild as I know someone going for a masters in social work, but the conditions set by the school says that she can’t get below a B more than twice on anything. But sure, we need doctors, so let 'em all in!
I struggle some with this because when I was young, I was taught to weave together every aspect of who I was with the church, then essentially told every part that was me was evil and rotten while every part that was the church was perfect and unassailable. Trying to separate myself from the church or faith often felt like (and often added up to) suicide. So I’ve mever really been able to fully separate for those reasons, then add in a psychotic disorder with frequent religious delusions and I’m a mess. I believe in Jesus, but I try to keep away from the science denial and queer-phobia. (personally am trans, but that was a long and painful process of discovery) I also try to let other people believe what they believe. If faith is an opium to me, then I am direly addicted to it with no way out I can see. But I’m trying to still be a good human while believing in a faith that all too often oppresses and suppresses other folks, identities, faiths, and cultures.
Everyone knows for a joke to be funny, the delivery has to be cipher text.
I guess that makes sense. About the trans thing, I guess that’s just how it’s been presented to me. I came from a deeply conservative background and am working through a lot of deprogramming and relearning. Also Tumblr lib programming to undo too.
