  • Kinda, I go overboard on tips, I cover night out bills for friends, I round up on receipts, biggest charitable act I participate in is helping my dad out with an org his church is a part of (normal “doing the good works” kind of church that doesn’t do weirdo evangelical shit), and recently supporting the org my GF works for because I like bein’ a cheerleader for the schtuff she gets excited about :3.



  • While a certain extent of it is just paranoia, there’s also the fact that China as a nation has a long standing arrogance about how it views others that the Xi regime seems a little too eager to return to.

    A rather infamous incident involving the guy who basically is China’s founding father and great liberator revolved around him being kidnapped by Qing agents in London, because the imperial throne had long presumed that their authority was absolute everywhere, and saw zero reason why they should consider not arresting someone on another country’s soil.

    I bring this incident up because it’s what the legitimate security concern actually revolves around, China has begun dispatching “police agents” to their embassies who are basically there to kidnap and intimidate chinese nationals who aren’t acting “chinese enough”, and in extreme cases drag them back to beijing by their hair.

    This obviously extends to dissidents who foolishly presumed they could escape Beijing’s wrath by not living in China, and to anyone seen as aiding and abetting them who aren’t high profile enough to draw attention if they get roughed up or even kidnapped themselves.

    American privacy invaders are looking at you, chinese privacy invaders are parasitically attaching themselves into your eye sockets so they can look at everyone you’re looking at, and use you as an unwitting informant on anyone they’re tracking.

    It’s like that bug that eats and then replaces fishes’ tongues, only if the bug was big brother and you were hyptnotized into staring at some shitty minecraft parkour while it eats your eyeball out and plugs itself into your optic nerve.

    TikTok of course advertises this as a fun feature that encourages group viewing by presenting content based on your interests and also the interests of those around you “as a conversation starter.”



  • I actually don’t think a fully artificial human like mind will ever be built outside of novelty purely because we ventured down the path of binary computing.

    Great for mass calculation but horrible for the kinds of complex pattern recognitions that the human mind excels at.

    The singularity point isn’t going to be the matrix or skynet or AM, it’s going to be the first quantum device successfully implanted and integrated into a human mind as a high speed calculation sidegrade “Third Hemisphere.”

    Someone capable of seamlessly balancing between human pattern recognition abilities and emotional intelligence while also capable of performing near instant multiplication of matrices of 100 entries of length in 15 dimensions.




  • Basically, “I can’t stop thinking of dat ass lol, you said I could tap that but now I’m blueballed, so I’m in the basement feeling like a loser while jacking off to you and trying to hold the spit until you get here.”

    Some of those terms are basically the equivalent of appending lol or XD or rofl onto the end of every sentence, but yeah, it’s basically just “ayo lemme smash already gurl!”




  • I’ve got two.

    • The US has arrived at the stage where an entirely new constitution/model of government, probably down to the very borders of the states themselves in the 48, needs to be implemented, just to let off the pressure of just how large a scale the US operates on in every dimension compared to what the original 13 were looking at.

    • The two state solution has been rendered untenable by Israel’s settler shit, the best way to protect the interests of Palestinians is to break down the border entirely and make them voting citizens with a say in the Knesset, and at this point I am convinced the only way that can be established is with an occupation force from outside both nations ready and willing to haul off anyone doing anything to threaten the coexistence and execute them. They won’t coexist in peace, so let them coexist under the sword of Damocles. If I had my way honestly, Jerusalem would have a nuke installed under the temple mount, with a switch set to destroy the city entirely if they’re going to insist on continuing to try and total victory wipe eachother out.

    If they can’t have the land together, they’ll have the ashes together.






  • See the thing about the supposed cycle of violence is that it implies equal fault and innocence of both sides. It relies on toleration theory.

    Toleration is a treaty, when you break it you are no longer protected by it. It is an entirely justifiable and moral act to instigate violence against fascists, because their very ideology is a violation of the treaty of toleration, and their organization is one which cannot sustain itself in the face of repeated attacks.

    You often hear complaints about how enforcing internet rules against the fascists just leads to whackamole bans, but the thing is that every successive ban leaves the fascists less coordinated, less emboldened, and more isolated. There is a critical point of punitive and preventative acts where a fascist org is effectively atomized and anyone worth pulling out has been rock bottomed into a holding space where they can be rehabbed.

    Peaceful methods are what can be achieved after you’ve destroyed them, either through hounding operations making it less and less possible for them to group up and act together, or by normalizing violence and intolerance against them to the extent that they are at least afraid enough to stop trying to not be sniveling cowards such as the fascist naturally is.

    The true fascist is only kept quiet in an environment of fear, where they know that trying to stick their heads up will get it lopped off in short order. An environment where even peacible means of antifascism still include complete social ostracism and career destruction, and where persistent fascism is met with swift and appropriate violent rejection.

    Don’t just punch the Nazis, dox them to their families and employers and communities, encourage others to be armed and ready to attack preemptively in their presence, organize around making that Nazi specifically know their rightful place is silent and afraid until they’ve cut the shit and stopped being a nazi, before someone ends up killing them in self defense.
