Live for today. Gone tomorrow. That’s me.

Remember that you’re not crazy for or alone in wanting that privacy. If I saw you shooting them out with a pellet gun then no, I didn’t.

One might also note that in that context “What is Caesar’s” could be responded to with “nothing.”

The New Testament is mostly Jesus then Paul repeatedly telling everyone with increasing amounts of frustration,

Reason from principles to situation for yourselves.

It’s fallacy fallacy. I got close to the right answer for highly-questionable subjective reasoning that’s barely better than luck.

I held on tightly to my principles, reasoned it out, and voted for a platform that represents my best interests.

Did you vote for a platform that represents your best interests?

I feel like an opportunity was missed. Buffalo Bill wears buffalo pelt, Grizzly Adams grizzly pelt, and…

They’re not loosing so long as the illusion of choice is preserved.

Fixed it for you.

unprovoked violent threat; victim so calloused to violence they still communicate simply and honestly; assailant sparing the innocent and guiding them to a safer area

Is this an american day to day occurance?

It’s pretty much every encounter I’ve ever had with a gang member.

I’ve had his role a couple times on a smaller scale. My job was to make one or two decisions per day, communicate the ideology of why to subordinates, and hold them accountable. I spent tens of hours reasoning why and how, then ten minutes doing the work.

Elon skips the reasoning part. He just spends a few minutes per day communicating nonsense. My favorite line so far is, “We coup who we want.”

I think we define “tankie” differently.

I’ll appeal to urban dictionary as the authority to say that no hard-line Stalinist wants Trump except as a means of acceleration towards capitalism’s downfall.

We know that you’re here, in this thread. Don’t tell us what you’re doing right now or we’ll collapse the universe.

At present there’s only one fork on the above process. That didn’t seem right to me.

I think I hear about a school shooting about once every two or three months. And, I believe underreporting at a national level paired with myself not having time to keep up means that I hear about roughly one in every hundred shootings.

Typically there’s about 180 days of school per year.

Crunching some vague math, my guess seems preposterous: ~340 school shootings in 2024. That’s almost two per day. But, the more I thought about it the less preposterous it seemed.

TL;DR - My guess is a seemingly preposterous 340 school shootings in 2024, or almost 2 per school day.

It’s quite difficult to emigrate unless one has significant fiscal privilege or is already politically and culturally connected to another country.

If you’re willing then please share why you chose where and how you were able to effect it.

There’s a “black hole”, humanity’s beyond the event horizon, and barely anyone even acknowledges the existence of any of it.

But, no matter how hard one tries to sink into the void they cannot deny the human paradigm. Complex communication of the hypothetical us all that defines our species from the other animals. A human’s meaning-of-life is, at the root, the same as everyone else’s.

If any of this resonates with you then I’d be happy to have a conversation. This account should be active until March-ish.

We cannot explain to you how to prevent making yourself a target. It’s something learned in experience. If you don’t know what to do then you should stick to places that fit your fiscal class.

Don’t explore, especially after dusk. Two city blocks can flip the paradigm upside down.

That’s exactly what’s going on between the Rockies and Sierra Nevada in the Great Basin. But, west of the Sierra Nevada, on the coast, the paradigm changes entirely.
