When people get impatient and honk at me to move when I can only scoot a few feet, I hit the brakes and come to a full stop while traffic keeps inching. Maybe I’ll let another car in our lane,maybe not. Either way, we will both be leaving traffic at the same time whether I’m an inch away from the car ahead of me, or 30ft. If I can get out and walk faster than traffic, there’s no point in getting pissy over cars not squeezing in every inch they can.

I have freaked out several people because I stop mid-drive to carry turtles across the road.

Remember: take it to the side it’s moving toward or it will just cross again.

… Ew. That’s a gross sentiment.

Yeah but that’s different.

Because… Something something USA sucks HAHAHA A PWND now let me spam emojis and gifs while pointing out spelling and grammar errors because I have no real argument and just want to feel smugly superior.

/s, obviously.

The people I see being the loudest and most visible about how “we need to keep ALL speech allowed in every place ever” are almost always the ones getting removed from places because of the insane, dangerous, or just outright incorrect thing they spout.

The last one was a transphobe who got ejected from an aquarium by cops because he decided to follow some trans people around to yell at everyone with children that “the (slur for trans people) are here to r**e your kids” and was screaming about free speech as three security guards literally dragged him out the doors.

Not sure what he expected to accomplish, but these are the people yelling about how they should be allowed to say things on a platform/in a place because it’s not literally illegal to say them.

I’d love to!

Now if anyone wants to donate to my Moving Fund…

I have been getting the lgbt+ people in my area acquainted with firearms, and while some of them aren’t mentally in a place where they can join us, they will be protected if needed.

Already this year one of my “students” has had to defend themselves in an alley while walking home. Guy made transphobic comments, waited outside and followed. Security cameras managed to catch everything but in this city if there hadn’t been cameras, she’d be tossed in a cell with a bunch of guys and then the cops would leave and hope something bad happens. It wouldn’t be the first time.

When the people surrounding you would happily chuck a stone at you or hoist the rope into the tree with the rest of the lynch mob, and cops won’t protect you, all the people trying to mock you for being prepared just look like naive children whose world view extends to the end of their HOA.

grow from there

Lol

It allows rainwater to be absorbed rather than running off causing flooding.

There’s an old theater I performed at twice in Southern Ohio. Built before the Civil War, and surrounded by brick buildings, a brick street out front, brick alley, and brick parking lot area.

The second time I was there, the street had been paved, as had the back parking area, and large portion of surrounding alleys. Only the single side alley was still brick.

The first time it rained the week I was there, the basement, while not flooded completely, had so much water running through it to the sunken boiler room, the owners had to toss down some quick 2x4 walkways so nobody was ruining costumes and footwear or slipping and suing. The walls of the basement looked like mini waterfalls.

I popped outside during a lull and the back parking area and alley were basically acting as a funnel, pushing all the water right up to the sides of the building.

I just checked a satellite map view and it looks like they’ve at least re-paved the back alley (don’t know if it drains any better but it’s clearly much darker and there’s lines painted) and the building beside it is gone and instead there’s a ton of grass. So maybe it’s better, but I’m sure they shortened the remaining life of the building by a ton.

That hat is very cunning, I think.

Person walks down the street wearing that, people know they’re not afraid of anything.

“this is the future the left wants under COMMIESOCIALMARXISM!”

dystopian picture of current day late-stage-capitalism in the US

It’s okay to admit when you’re wrong, you know?

“oh a new form of power generation? Sweet! looks inside it’s making steam to spin a turbine…”

As former enlisted, I wonder if at any point while floating to the ground they thought to themselves “holy shit, I’m gonna die in a desert for pedophiles, why did I go along with this?”

At least one gets to think twice for now, but I doubt they will.

That’s why they scream until they die. They held it in all that time.

Those aren’t the eggs I’m looking for.

However, could you assist me in locating a ham?

Lmao Tone is hard to read, I wasn’t upset so if I came across that way my apologies, I was just adding more info in response to points you had raised.

I would assume if they meant it as some kind of a dig, they wouldn’t accept the invitations to hammock with us. Their tone was friendly, it’s just not a term I’ve heard and given the different comments so far, it seems to be a mixed bag as to whether other people would consider it an insult or a compliment.

Really though given the context, I’m going to take it as a compliment even if it was meant as an insult.

I have no job currently, my clothes are mostly 5+ years old with most of my stuff being around 10 years old from my last retail job when I got them discounted and on clearance, my car rolled off the line before I was conceived and has the damage that says it lives in deer country, and my food comes from wherever is cheapest.

And they all know these things since we talk about such things at meets along with basically every other topic. pretty much everyone is in the same boat, and with only one exception we all live with roommates and parents.

If you’re thinking of a 2010 hipster with a man-bun and Abercrombie clothes driving their Leaf from the iPhone store to the fancy food market where everything is 5x the price because someone put the word “organic” in front of “tomato”… I mean, imagine me however you wish, but we are definitely more the type to live in a log cabin we built ourselves away from any kind of technology. I like what gadgets I do have, but I’d trade them for “not living in capitalism hell” any day.
