I think you’re in it

Made a trebuchet that almost destroyed a neighbor’s car. Tried to build a fuel-air bomb out of kerosene and a shotgun shell. Made napalm out of gasoline and styrofoam. Huntes squirrels with a .22 rifle.

Weird childhood.

Oh shit. I need to watch this.

Minecraft. You think that there’s no way to play Minecraft “wrong”, right up until you accidentally fall into the 4-block wide valley that I’ve cut through the entire map or walk into the liminal space that I’ve mined out just above bedrock. Fuck cutesy cottages and Minecraft in minecraft- let’s just build superstructures that disappear beyond the draw distance of the map. Fuck creative mode- let’s do it while we’re facing down mobs day and night. Fuck explosives- do that shit with a pick like a goddamn man. You haven’t really seen confused rage until your child discovers hundreds of unexplained and unexplainable brutalist towers extending into the distance like the gravestones of alien gods when they thought you were building a farm over the next hill.

Night birds

I’ve been using italki.com to learn Russian. It’s pretty cool.

Russian actually isn’t that bad. It takes time, but I’ve been learning it because my gf is fluent. She calls it an unga-bunga language because literal word-by-word translation sounds like caveman-speak lol

I don’t know what the songs were about, it was just Russian Lo-Fi. So… murdered by chill eastern europeans?

Get on FetLife and find a local lgbtq-friendly bdsm group. In my experience, the venn diagram of lesbian/bisexuals into bdsm and the occult community in any given area is just a circle. Bring baked goods to the munches and ask about local covens. Once you’ve established yourself as not a creep, it shouldn’t be that hard to put the word out about the grimoires.

I’ve done about half of this, but I’m not into witchcraft.

Went to a doctor for a twisted ankle, who told me that my feet had exaggerated arches. When asked what that meant (as in- medically, what problems could that cause) he laughed and replied that it meant I had “ugly fucking feet”.

All Things Distributed

I’ve watched Year One exactly once. In a tent in rural Afghanistan lol.

Almost all of them. To me.

I just read every damn one of these comics lol

“I mean, why though?”

“Threat of starvation.”

I appreciate your vital contribution to this discussion.

Quote where I said that.

You said you wanted a say when you advocated for that policy in the first place

What policy? Go find the thing that I said that you think is me advocating for overriding the will of kids and their parents, and just quote it at me.

Where did I say that I wanted a say? We were talking about whether kids should be free to make all of their own decisions. I’m using bad decisions with food as an example, and you’re accusing me of trying to tell other people what to do, then calling me an authoritarian.

I’m not fighting, I’m just checking out of the conversation. Go fuck yourself.

You’re asserting that they have a right to make all of their own decisions, then asserting that I don’t believe in a free society unless I agree. Neither of these things is obviously true- it’s possible to support children having some decisions made for them without supporting totalitarianism.

See my other reply for examples of kids making their own decisions. Do you support all of those?
