I went to one of those and it was a lot of fun. I was surprised at how well some of those folks connected so quickly (groups of them were immediately playing board games and hanging out). I wish I had half the confidence those people have.

It’s a great installment in the grimdark genre. It won’t blow your socks off but it does the dark, brooding genre well.

Capitalists flip flop between motivating with fear, and scaring the working class into paralysis with fear as well. Fear of losing your job; fear of your neighbor; fear of other countries; it’s all just fear. Bad news also draws people in and gets clicks and views.

Multiple people can have their own variations of a critique. Crisis Theory is a good example.

The war machine stops for no one.

So true. I actually love dogs. Just not all of them. The same goes with cats, but I generally gel better with their personalities. Cats have always gravitated to me.

It really depends on the dog for me, and sometimes it’s less the dog’s fault and more the owner’s fault. My wife was bit and chased by a dog as a kid, so she immediately has issues with them.

The thing I dislike is the entitlement of owners that bring their dog into every business. It’s fine if your business has signs stating it’s okay, but I’ve seen people walk right into places with their dog and not even question it. For them, it’s somehow flipped in their heads and they think dogs are permitted unless otherwise stated. Then you have the folks that buy fake support vests for their dogs, which is just a dick thing to do. It undermines people that actually have a need for a support pet.

I’ve always been a cat person but I’m not the type that fucking advertises it everywhere.

I swear I can find an applicable Marx excerpt for almost anything. His work has strengthened my anti-capitalist conversations a ton.

I have a female cat named Toph. She’s a Tortie. Very fitting character and cat breed.

A meme that shows an image of Jordan Peterson on the left, and Henry Rollins on the right. The title at the top reads:

Why listen to glorified motivational speaker Jordan Peterson when you can just listen to Henry Rollins

The left column below Peterson reads:

  • Thinks there is a "crisis in masculinity"
  • Insists that the "hero's journey" is a long, strenuous process
  • Never collaborated with Tool
  • Zero scene cred
  • Writes self-help books

The right column below Rollins reads:

  • Never belittles or puts you down for your inner turmoil
  • "Hero time starts. Right. Now."
  • Provided a visceral monologue on Tool's debut album
  • Well respected in the music scene
  • Writes about his travels and interacting with foreign cultures

Thanks! It was funny buying the domain enjoying.yachts since I don’t own nor will ever own a yacht.

Now to find Donnie and Raph.

 

The left one is the remake from the old mold, but I have the real OG stored away. Leo was always my favorite. I want to collect all of the new ones though.

 

I recently started playing GTAV again and sometimes I’ll get in my car and let the radio stations play while I do house stuff. Favorite stations are the 80s one with Kenny Loggins, and West Coast Classics and Rock Radio.
