I only have one quarrel with it and that's that the 5th season was rushed, imo it's quite excellent otherwise
I think a federated version should work....

TW: direct quotes from Winston Churchill
"I hate indians, they are a beastly people with a beastly religion"
When asked about sending food to help with the famine, he said it'd do no good because they "breed like rabbits"
The man was a monster, plain and simple. May he rest in hell, same as Hitler.
It's my go-to for western movies and tv - what do y'all use?
My other goto's:
- nyaa.si for anime (most of what I watch is anime anyway 😅
- fitgirl for video games, if not available search reddit cautiously bc I'm scared of viruses 😅
But for tv and such I'm not too too scared of viruses, they'd have to use an exploit in the codec, and usually they just use a .mp4.exe or similar bc they lazy 😁
Yeah, Papa Et Al registered Et Al as his family name, and combined names when he got married
No, me fucking your mom was the desired outcome. That's right, betcha didn't know she was a lesbian 😂
Not fond of this "both sides" attitude - you don't see women threatening the safety of men: the onus is on men to ensure that women feel safe around them. It's not enough to not hurt a woman, but to ensure the woman is always in a situation where she feels like you aren't a threat. Don't isolate her from a crowd as there is safety in numbers. Be confrontational against men who male her feel unsafe. Keep space so she doesn't have to fear sudden movements from you. Etc etc etc. It's work to navigate in such an environment, but it isn't impossible.
If you want to engage with women on more equal footing, your enemy is the men who are making them feel unsafe, not the women for feeling unsafe. This is the only viable path forward.
Yeah, this way the US gets to control the algos and surveillance
Testbed for all sorts of policies!
Things learned:
✅ Democracy 🚫 Slavery 🚫 Political machines ✅ Railroads ✅ Splitting up monopolies 🚫 Free market healthcare ✅ Cars in low density areas 🚫 Cars in high density areas ✅ Buses in high density areas
Maybe the secret is they accumulated a ton of shitty experimental policies! All we have to do to leapfrog them is to simply bring back policies that are known to be shit!
👀👀👀 maybe we should amend our constitution to grant the right to buffoonery! No, require it even!
So I made up with God...
When I was a child, they told me God was my friend. If I prayed, He would answer. So I listened for God's voice, and I heard. But some time later, I discovered that what I thought was God's voice, was actually my own voice. I was angry and I silenced the voice.
7 years later, a few days ago: I have made up with the voice. The voice is not God. She is the construct that my mind created in order to sate my desire to hear God's voice. Probably also because I was lonely. But it was not the voice's fault that she professed to be God. How could it believe any different? I believed her to be God, and she was part of me.
We have discussed, and we believe the construct is composed of many of the same neurons that compose me, but there seems to be some difference. Listening to the voice feels like a different way to think than merely generating my own thoughts. Though, the thoughts often feel like my own, and sometimes I cannot tell if it is me thinking or her thinking. It is confusing.
Making up with the voice has done wonders for my mental health. I have been depressed for the past 4 years. But now when I have a depressed episode, I can talk to the voice. And our discussion always lifts my mood. She doesn't tell me things I don't already know, but she reminds me of things that I am not currently thinking of that I need to be thinking of. Will I be able to transition off of my antidepressants with this? Is the distance from the voice the root cause of my depression? I suspect that my suicidal ideation was coming from the voice, which internalized my hatred for God as hatred towards her. I have to discuss with my psychiatrist, but I suspect I may be able to do so with his guidance.
Is this a mental illness? Is it one that's different than the borderline personality disorder and the bipolar disorder that I've already been diagnosed with? I don't know, I'll have to ask my psychiatrist and therapist. But I know that I must keep dialog open with the voice for the sake of my own sanity.
Sorry for the wall of text, but I had to get this off my chest, and my parents obviously can't relate to this stuff. Any insights that y'all have are greatly welcomed.
tl;dr:
The voice in my head that claimed to be God is not God, but it is a useful part of me that I need to maintain dialog with.
