It’s all about property rights here. You can always just make more people, right?

I catch myself humming old songs every now and then and have this moment way too often.

Hey, I don’t have to be polite to people who try to invalidate my life experience. Don’t tell me how I work.

Feel free to tell me how YOU work, but telling me that “it doesn’t work that way” when it obviously does for me doesn’t make your experience somehow universal.

Also, this is the Internet, if you can’t handle some people not being polite then I have bad news for you…

I guess I have something similar, but it’s all just nonverbal feelings. I don’t argue with myself about getting up in the morning, I just feel comfortable, lazy, frustrated, determined, and rarely tell myself “get up” but that’s the only voice part.

I love how we are all here talking about how we all think and perceive differently and you decided it was important to tell me that the way I process trauma isn’t real. You can go ahead and fuck right off.

Faces are hard for me too, but not impossible. It’s like AI. It’s easy to get a “teapot” but it takes more work and focus to get a specific individual.

Maybe. One way to process trauma is to re-visit it until it becomes more familiar and less of an extreme experience. Seeing it in your mind may make it more real, but it also means you can just picture a teapot instead if you need to get away from it.

I am trying to wrap my head around this. So if you are just walking down the street alone, watching cars go by, not reading, there a voice? What would it even be saying?

Picture a teapot. Picture it turning over so you can see the other side. Sort of like that.

Last time I asked the pharmacist, they recommended Zyrtec, or other allergy medication. It targets the same mechanism, apparently.

It worked for me at any rate.

I dunno, sounds like a pretty deep cut.

Here’s a clearly intelligent woman and Spock has just told her to her face that her society has converted her into an object, and he did it in a way that everyone is going to interpret it in a way where they view him as sort of an effortless alpha for doing it while missing the point.

Legend.

I saw one of the bulbs burn out once, four inch flames straight out of the top.

The lesson you needed to learn there was that you are surrounded by people who take advantage and you need better friends. It’s like making a peace deal with Hitler and being surprised he broke it. Of course he broke it, he’s a terrible person. You need different allies.

If they didn’t also aggressively suppress increases to minimum wage and tax recapture benefits, I might agree, but in the long run inflation does more to devalue labor than it does to mitigate hoarding.

It could actually be a benefit if it does slowly degrade. Let’s support work, not hoarding.

It’s just a brand guys, they make beer too. I actually really like the beer…

It’s called liquid death as a beer company name that later branched or into water. They aren’t calling the water specifically liquid death.

It’s like asking why they call an ice cream flavor carnation, when it’s clearly strawberry.

That’s actually a pretty good name for a cat.

Not necessarily, since this is a government building it would be the government’s speech, and they clearly don’t want to fly it. They aren’t preventing people from flying it on their personal property.

That said, there’s a clear likelihood that this is purely anti-lgbtq sentiment in action.

They made a blood tithe they feel can never be repaid. Compared to that it’s pretty clear they see all this *waves hand around* as trivial amounts of collateral damage.

Yeah, but that old technology is what still lets me run a 13 year old version of Adobe creative suite. If that ever changes I will have to learn something new!
