I delete the vast majority of what I type out. Mostly stuff that’s personal experience based that, while adding to the conversation, doesn’t really matter to anyone and isn’t that interesting.

I start writing it because I care enough, and stop when I realize nobody else will.

Sometimes I let myself finish fleshing out the thought, then delete it, but often I just get the bulk of my thoughts out and give up when editing it. I’m pretty verbose, and don’t really have much of an outlet in real life, and I’m an anxious mess about interactions, so.. it’s just a way to relieve some of the pressure without it impacting anything.

Yeah, so did I, so I went looking at a few sources, and the takeaway from all of them is what’s above.

The articles are all pretty sparse on detail, but clearly trying to downplay that nothing tangibly changed, and I really don’t fully understand why, when this sort of thing often gets skewered. Maybe because it’s breaking news, and the negativity/reality is yet to come? Maybe it’s a sort of media focus shift toward that stuff actually happening?

Either way, this is definitely one of those “just have to wait and see how this move plays out” sort of things, because it could be great, as the headlines indicate, or it could be the same bullshit all over.

It was the first rpg-type game I ever played and it awoke a passion in me I still have 30 years on.

I still have the cartridge. Don’t have an SNES to play on anymore (I’d just emulate anyway). But I keep that and ff8 on display, for being formative titles.

So.. nothing actually changed, they just moved the case to Missouri. Since Missouri has a state-run program that suffers tangible harm from forgiveness, and Georgia didn’t have standing to sue.

The headlines sound really optimistic about what is basically nothingsauce. Sure they can move forward with stuff, but the situation hasn’t really changed that much.

When you hit 36, skeleton movement will make you wince. And be jealous.

Admittedly, I never read the terms and conditions for the university I attended..

Maybe that’s on me, but I seriously doubt there were any. That’s not really a normal thing an institute of higher learning would have, afaik..

What a bizarre contortion.

Honestly, and I appreciate your feedback, I can’t imagine that’s actually my problem since I don’t have a life, but am super into protecting my personal security. I have 2 browsers running at most, plus voyager. Typically no other apps. And it crashes mostly while I’m actively writing stuff. Not on swapping. That’s why it’s so frustrating.

But like even if that weren’t the case, it would still be super frustrating even if some other related app had a similar problem in the past..? Like I’m asking it be done if possible. I know it’s a big ask.

Mine is like this but upside down (2 is a laptop) and with a large gap between the top two. Sort of Mickey mouse head style, but all the same size. I primarily use 2 and 3.

Probably chaotic evil for these as well, since they didn’t even make the chart.

Mmm an entirely different flavor of hate art. Delectable.

I lived through a hurricane down in Texas. And because power was out for a week in my area, and I lived in an apartment, didn’t know how to prepare, and didn’t have many options, we did need supplies.

And there were more cops there to oversee the distribution than there were people distributing the FEMA aid.

If those cops had instead just helped distribute, they wouldn’t have needed cops there at all. The only reason they needed cops there was because it took 6 hours to get your care package of bananas, apples, bread, and water, and they didn’t have any shade available while waiting.

It’s kinda a struggle to dress up as one’s favorite anime/video game/comic character, too.. for largely the same reason.

Idk any context or anything..

Is this an HOA board member? I’m just going by the post title..

I just wanna know because if this is hate art that’s phenomenal. (Even if it isn’t, frankly, but that would be icing)
