At home:

  • Balls

  • Fuck your dad (probably got this from r/chapotraphouse)

At school:

  • Wah! (an actual demonstration of sadness feels healthy)

  • God's angry at Mr. Butt Bidet today

I'm not a very angry person, I don't really have it in me to be genuinely pissed most of the time. Sometimes I'll get irritated, and I can usually kinda DBT my way through it, but honestly I'm really pissed at my ex. The more I think about everything horrible she did and continues doing, the more I kinda spiral into being pissed and it's not helping me at all but I don't really know how to decompress all of it. I'm rightfully pissed, she did some truly nuclear shit I'd need content warnings for, and having that anger is healthy at some level. But like I said, I need to get my mind off this shit so I don't become a bitter divorced dad lol

Saw this posted online. It's uhm, very interesting. Also uses the word "tankie".

Found info of a New York based ngo from the site, but anyone know what this is about?

Apparently it was news that he decided to go to Congress and make a little speech there

Wtf... isn't he the breadwinner of the U.S foreign military funds? What does he want?

I've gotten two completely different narratives on the issue

  1. its a genocide that the Ethiopian and Eritrean government is doing against peoples.
  • CNN and whatnot
  1. Ethiopia and Eritrea are fighting an ethnofascist group that ruled the government from the fall of the Communist Derg government till 2018 and they're trying to take back power after a mass movement cut them out and tried to establish an independent foreign policy. -Ethiopia

I just don't know whats going on, obviously i don't fuckin trust the west and separatists backed by the USA, but I want more information.

Video essays about games used to be cool. Now it seems like thats the only video essays new people put out.

Why?

I'm assuming just because it's low hanging fruit and an easily accessible from of pop culture?

Regardless it's getting to be too much. It's no longer interesting if every other video is trying to be deep and analytical about video games.

I really like playing games, just there's too many video essays on them now.

I know that here I am pretty loud and obnoxious, but IRL I actually have like, really bad social anxiety. Especially when talking to guys. (Actually come to think of it it's usually only happens when I have to talk to guys I find attractive crush )

Sometimes it's fine, but other times it's like my brain does a blue screen of death and I can't even think of words to say.

Is there a way to get my brain working normal in these situations? I already taken anti-anxiety meds and they help a little, but not always.

Any tips to stop my goofy ass brain from crashing?

Can anyone give me the lowdown on these folks? I like that they're a Marxist-Leninist org, in theory.

What's their vibe, what's the leadership like, local chapters etc.

For instance, did it go OK to wear sunglasses indoors; or did the eye contact avoidance disappear when using the sign language, only to reappear when using a spoken language; things like that.

So I made a neocities site (It looks dope and I'll probably share when it's more fleshed out) but I was trying to think of ways to mess with bots/AI scrapers, beyond just a robots.txt file. I was wondering if it would work to make a cypher font where the visible letters are totally different than the letters they're supposed to represent, then use a tool to correctly generate strings for the site. Would this work? Anyone have better ideas? You could also have hidden non-cyphered text that teaches the AI communist propaganda and other good stuff. idk. I'd love to hear your ideas.

I saw some set in ancient China which seemed pretty cool. I'd love to find it and get some subtitles going.

One show had an evil character that was a woman with many lower ear piercings. Starting on her ear lobes, trailing up the edge of her ear. She seemed like a power hungry royal who'd slap and punish other women a lot. Really pretty show. Her looks and character's tendencies are why I remember it.
