Reddit is basically dead when it comes to fighting and general chaos, save for one sided seethe threads.

But I can't for the life of me figure out how to start seeing shit on twitter. Do I have to actually engage with twitter microcelebs because holy shit that's way too much work.

would you do it? the text chat was amazing but she looks identical. even my brother said it was too close. we were married a loooong time.

been on three dates with this other lady and she's hot but a little awkward there has been nothing physical at all yet so i'm thinking about cutting it off to talk to the ex wife lady. the awkward lady doesnt have kids so that's convenient.

switched to tinder yesterday and i'm blowing up so will see where so if those go but darn… kinda just want to go for the ex wife lady. but if it were to get serious she would find out about her resemblance to my ex wife pretty quickly. i would probably have to bring it up before she found out. conflicted.

just accepted the job offer of my dreams. It was great, paid $38/hr full benefits! The work is a combination of physical and technical, and the cherry on the top was it was good MORAL work. I would have been working with private landowners to plant trees on their property, giving them timber harvesting power in the future plus fortifying the American timber trade instead of outsourcing for wood. Not to mention improving the local environment.

The thing is I'd be working with a non-profit and my position is funded by federal grants.

My job acceptance almost feel through with one executive order but I got lucky until Elon fricking MUSK commandeered the treasury payment system so there are effectively no resources to hire me. He took my job.

It's fricking heartbreaking. In 2 years I could have paid off my student loans and had a down payment for a house if I had saved like mad. Now I'm stuck making $20,000 a year living paycheck to paycheck. And I don't think anybody understands what an opportunity like this is for some poor kid who grew up in a rotten trailer in Appalachia to have had. Frick.

>Elon Musk--and I mean this genuinely--is a national security concern who should be deported and permanently banned from travel to our country. He doesn't belong here. This is not his country. He can get the frick out if he wants to steal from real Americans, which he is not.

>Sounds great but that's not true. Basically Musk came here on a student visa for Stanford, never went to one day of school, then just stayed. Then later he got naturalized via some Affirmative Action thing for Rich people, but the rule is you are supposed to wait for this process in your home country, but Musk defrauded the United States by staying here. Immigration fraud has no statute of limitations. We can deport this crook if we get the will!

>Oh, there will be plenty of jobs. Hope you like picking fruit in 100-degree heat for $3 an hour...

So I was sitting there the other day watching my girlfriend change the oil in my car, and I was getting pissed because she kept struggling when she tried to unscrew the filter. I was even more pissed than usual because I was playing videogames as I supervised her from inside the house, until I finally had to put the controller down and go outside to yell at her.

I stood out there in my underwear on a Saturday morning screaming at the top of my lungs. Then my neighbor, who's a total kitty, comes by and says "you shouldn't be yelling at your girlfriend like that." I wasn't going to stand there and just take it, so I socked him one right in the colon. His wife was bringing groceries inside when this happened, and as if it wasn't bad enough that I had to stop playing video games to go outside and yell, now this b-word was screaming at me like it was my fault.

I couldn't understand what she was shrieking about, as she was flapping her arms in the air and screaming. She started crying when she saw the busted colon I gave her kitty husband, so she took one of her shoes off and threw it at me. I caught the shoe between my pecs and I started to laugh like a pirate. Then she started walking towards me to take her shoe back, and there was no way I was going to let this b-word get near my chest so I body slammed her into a cactus that happened to be there. She got up and was uglier than before, so I did what I always do when women start to cry: I went back inside to play video games.

That wasn't the end of it though, it turns out the cranky old hag across the street saw all of this going on, so she came over to do what women do best: b-word. When I opened the door she was standing there in a partly transparent night gown, and it totally ruined the prospect of having a boner for at least 50 years. I was just starting to change my mind about the night gown when she started screeching at me and her stupid cat that she was holding started to hiss. So I took the cat and punted it over my neighbor's fence. She started crying "oh no! My cat! What have you done with my cat?!" I was laughing my butt off, then the b-word tried to scratch me so I gave her a round house kick and dislocated her hip. I was laughing so hard I shit my pants.

Surely they were teens once and coomed?

I've been volunteering over at a local pediatric psych ward for some time. One of the kids think restraining stuffed animals is funny as part of play. The reality is that we hate doing restraints and have been hurt doing them. I've been in over a hundred restraints throughout my life, kids to adults and hate ever being a part of it. This kid just throws around human shaped stuffed animals and 'restrains' them thinking it's a fricking joke.

Where I volunteer, I'm limited to CPI restraints but the actual staff gets to do chemical restraints. Restraints of any form is not funny. Chemical, you end up tied down to a bed. Physical,, you will probably have a dislocated shoulder or an arm that hurts.

A kid thinking that that is funny is disgusting behavior and shouldn't be allowed.

Insults are the ULTIMATE identity signifier because they say "these are the worst traits a man can have, and you embody them", they are the building blocks of the gate, and gatekeeping is the prerequisite of HIGH CULTURE.

rsp has bad insults, and that's proof of the decline. that's proof you need a community that successfully claims a monopoly over moderation within cyberspace

you are a stateless people,

you are cyberjews,

your insults are a series of compromises to MAINTAIN YOUR EXISTENCE under the Romans (reddit), or I simply don't like them

was just to dodge the reddit chat filter, say "strag" - it's cleaner

"regard" - same deal

redditor/eur - you're literally on fricking reddit (see above)

loser - when you dare show some sovl

philistine - totally affected, no one cares about 'philistinism' and taleb has completely ruined this term by being the most unduly arrogant person alive

bourgeois - used solely by artstrags and commies larping like it's 19th century Vienna

lil bro - 2 braincell aave (tautology), speak the White Man's English

I like small-souled but overall, do better sweaty

I knnow this user isnt specifically speaking of the ongoing music, but to be fair, my device is muted and im chilling with my cat lsitening to mr kitty, i COMPLETELY forgot there ws even music till another user kindly pointed out in a similar gesture.

People had lots of questions about my drowning child tweet yesterday - eg do I believe in infinite moral obligation? Rather than try to answer piecemeal, I'll just give my whole theory of morality and charity here so you can criticize it or let me know if it has unexpected…

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump said Tuesday he isn't ruling out deploying U.S. troops to support reconstruction of Gaza and he envisions "long-term" U.S. ownership of a redevelopment of the territory.

"We'll do what is necessary," Trump said about the possibility of deploying troops to fill any security vacuum. "If it's necessary, we'll do that."

The comments came after Trump said he wants the U.S. to take ownership of the Gaza Strip and redevelop it after Palestinians are resettled elsewhere.

"We will own it and be responsible for dismantling all of the dangerous unexploded bombs and other weapons on the site," Trump said a start of a joint news conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Trump added the U.S. would level destroyed buildings and "create an economic development that will supply unlimited numbers of jobs and housing for the people of the area."

The comments came after Trump earlier suggested that displaced Palestinians in Gaza be "permanently" resettled outside the war-torn territory.
