Wait, are you saying that action was taken to prevent shooters from entering legislative buildings to attack politicians? Oh boy, I bet that means that the same or similar action has been taken to prevent shooters from entering schools to attack children.
No? Well whose job would that be? Those politicians, huh?
Well then I guess this is gonna be as normalized as school shootings until they do something to meaningfully reform gun control.
What a fucking ghoul.
"It's a tragedy that this happened to anybody, and it's a disgusting attack on the fundamental tenets of democracy that this happened to elected leaders."
Was that so hard? Go ahead, staffers. Copy and paste that. Apparently it's better than any of you can do.
On a totally unrelated note, I'm pretty sure he's going to a theatre to see a play at some point soon. Maybe tonight? I don't think it's a comedy, but there's an opportunity for somebody to do the funniest thing possible. Double funny if their name is Mario.
The oligarchs demand a new generation of laborers. How can the shareholders be confident in infinite exponential growth without an ever growing pool of labor and consumers? Never you mind whether anybody is prosperous enough to afford to be consumers. That's an issue we can wait until next quarter to worry about. By then, we'll have laid off half of the laborers and replaced them with AI.
What's that? If everybody is laying off laborers in favor of AI, who will be left to buy our products and services, you ask? Lol idk, my job is to just make line go up at all costs.
If Elon were smart, he would've just shut the fuck up and quietly enjoyed his hundreds of billions of dollars instead of jumping headfirst into culture war to prove what a funny edgelord he is.
They say "we need to expand our tent" but they're only willing to erect tent poles on the right. Everybody left of center is left out in the rain.
How dope would it be if the future were that AOC is the moderate, establishment Dem leader of the House uniting further left Dem reps with other moderate reps like herself. Because in reality, she and Sanders are pretty centrist, but they're painted as extreme far left because the wealthy are afraid of how effective they are.
Pastor Deborah Dallas wrote a book called Nothing But The Truth, and the only reason I know this is because I get half a dozen calls every day from people trying to get a distribution deal or film rights. For years. I used to tell them that they have the wrong number. Now I just don't answer my phone. Every call from them gets blocked and reported. My number is on the do not call registry and I've never invited these fucks to call me.
I even got a text from a church one time asking if I was gonna make it to the upcoming Sunday service. I said idk, I got a lot going on right now. They freaked the fuck out on me lol. I told them to be more Christ-like, and to also understand that your plans will never supersede God's plans. Then I gave them Bible study homework for being rude to me.
That was a fun interaction.
Okay, but on a timeline measured in years instead of quarters, it's really fucking stupid to punish the factory that churns out engineers for your war machines, right? The government funds STEM education, yielding STEM experts, yielding STEM productivity. Stop funding it, stop making STEM experts, vastly reduce STEM productivity. Pair this with massive reductions on immigrants (and torch the economy to lower desire to come here also) and how does this not lead to brain drain dark ages and empire collapse?
Is it more complicated than this? Am I missing something? Because usually when somebody thinks that everybody else is a fucking moron, they are the fucking moron, and I'm worried that maybe I'm just such a dumb fucking moron that I can't see what a dumb fucking moron I am.
Having a trip sitter would be ideal, but isn't fully necessary so long as you start small. Don't take more than 2 grams (assuming you're an average size adult male) and you'll be fine. You'll have some nausea which is normal, so don't eat a ton or drink anything acidic or bubbly before. The part of your brain that gets tickled for psychedelic effects is either the same or next door to the nausea part of your brain, so just get through the first wave of tummy gymnastics and the rest is therapeutic meditation. Watch clouds, look at bugs in the grass, touch tree bark. Be in our natural world. Just be somewhere safe and comfortable where you don't need to be concerned about being judged. Idk how people can enjoy it in a public setting lol. Or more often than like once per year.
It's been a while for me, but you bring things back with you from a trip. It helps you to tear yourself down so you can rebuild a little differently.
[musk] -Has contributed very little personally in his field of expertise
What field of expertise? All he does is spend his daddy's emerald mine money on companies and then lie about what the companies are gonna accomplish. With the exception of nutting into mistresses, he's basically a subpar 14 year old trapped in the body of a divorced high school history teacher, but riddled with drug addictions. Money is the only thing keeping him out of prison and off the streets. He has lucked his way into everything he has, and there is absolutely nothing to admire about the "man". There isn't a single goddamn thing that I would trust him as an "expert" to handle for me.
He is a pile of money. Nothing more, nothing less.
This is true. Teenage me only got snippets. I noticed the standardized metal road behemoths that people commanded at life-ending speeds, but otherwise just "plants pretty".
At 30+, I thought more about how I would interface with gods or aliens or both as an ambassador advocating for the continued survival of the species, and I saw that that's a tough fucking sell at this point. I explored my own role as a person and came to understand that somewhere along the line, I've somehow transitioned from being a child to an unqualified adult, and now to an accomplished provider with notable lived experiences. As a result, I've started to aim to live up to that a little better.
These people don't experience the ego death necessary to significantly grow. Mushrooms teach you to confront uncomfortable truths about yourself, and with some humility you may have an opportunity to reconcile to some degree. It's a tool, not a toy.
Fake news. The fat orange one is 79.
