Yes, in a span of now to infinity. It could take 13 weeks, or maybe 13 billion years. Maybe you’ve been clicking the button until entropy has leveled out, the final book of your life being the one written at the death of the universe. But your story hasn’t ended yet. You’re now a branch that needs to be pruned, existing in a space that doesn’t exist in any way we could ever conceive of…clicking the button. You got your hopes up 34 quadrillion years ago, but the final word was “their” instead of “there”. You’ll get their.

I went in to cancel my membership a few months ago, and they said that it can be done online now. Which is good to know, if I ever decide to get a gym membership at PF again and then choose to cancel it.

The other night, I was eating lunch at my desk, in our small open office. The IT guy and one of the robot techs were debating whether the summary execution of Alex Pretti was justified. IT guy believes the government’s version of events, suggesting that Alex brandished his firearm (which is patently false). They openly support the state’s murder, and further, encourage it. It might be a bit difficult to get them to go along with a massacre, but they’ve already been walked through 2 murders, and are primed for more.

Would something like this ever happen? Hope not. But if it does, god help us all.

I’ve checked out from trying to advocate for the truth. You cannot reason with someone who is arguing in bad faith. The blatant disregard for the live’s lost, instead focusing on proving a point to justify the theft of those live’s. It’s gross. How anyone can look at the system that has been fully exposed in front of them and say More of that! blows my mind. But those are the people that will backup Trump if such a thing happened.

I just wanted to be able to watch my movies on the TV. And then…I have like a dozen users with only 1-3 accessing the server at any given time. Now it is something special. I seriously need to get a NAS.

If you make it out alive, they would almost certainly send you to ADX Florence (or equivalent). Rights and protections are no longer inalienable, if you are part of the fascist regime. Taking a stand, saying “no more!”, is what we should all do. I’m terrified of the prospect of prison. However, at the current rate of escalation, we might all soon face a similar dilemma.

This is all good information. DHS doesn’t care about constitutional protections. They enter homes with administrative warrants. They can detain anyone, anytime, anywhere.

You’re right, there are effectively 2 options. Guess which option a trans person would vote for?

I would vote for whichever candidate that has firm, unflinching, support for Trans, NB and GNC people. Someone who will rescind every EO (with special focus on anti-LGBT orders), return our dignity and sense of belonging, and vow to veto any and all anti-LGBTQ+ pieces of legislation.

This is of course in addition to abolishing ICE.

Fat chance of either, unfortunately.

I come back to Toxicity once a month or so. Good shit!

ICE is attacking and brutalizing people, daily. Killing them. Blinding them. They do not deserve any platform for them to post their hate.

Haven’t posted yet? So what? This is some dumbass free speech absolutism that brought us to timelines like these.

How about kick them off the platform? Make a big deal about doing it. Tell them to fuck off. Stop tolerating intolerance. I don’t know how blue sky works, but surely there is a way to kick them off of the platform.

If god were real, and created the universe, I’d think that its existence would be described as something that just is. There is no start or end, no body to observe, nothing to communicate with. In the way that this supreme power would exist, there is no way for us to quantify it.

Maybe it’s excited oxygen molecules?

So fucking stupid. This will absolutely work its way into a Hallmark movie.

I bought an external DVD burner and a small pack of DVDs in 2023. Pretty sure I was burning gparted or some other recovery type LiveCD. It was some sort of Hail Mary on a retro project, or something.

But yeah, optical media bad.

I long for the day 🥰

If nothing comes to mind right away, then perhaps set the money aside for when you do need it.

Dang. I thought we had ‘em this time!

Dang

Edit: It is shit quality, but I’m sure you could locate a better version of it that way?

Hey Evangelical Zionists, Israel just attacked a Christmas celebration. The IDF just forcibly dispersed a group of Christians who were practicing their religion. This is outrageous, right?

We were outraged when the anti-Christian violence in Nigeria was brought up recently, so surely we are livid about this, right?

We should condemn Israel’s actions in the strongest possible terms, right? Sanctions might even be in order!

The White House needs to get out in front of this, to show our steadfast support of protecting Christian’s worldwide. The anti-Christian violence in the Middle East, committed by the Israeli state, must stop!
