 @3aa33ca7 I used to kill them when they killed my chickens, now I just drive about 20 mins away, crossing highways, or rivers, and dump the in a park, or by the railroads. 

Easier and less traumatic for everyone involved :) 
 Anyone got experience using steam on Linux? Best distro to use? I haven't used Linux in 10-15 yea... 
 @b3e72378 I'm new to Linux, and am using Pop_OS. 

It was slick enough for me, now I have 3 PCs setup with it, and use it for everything. 
 @f1cf1cd7 

Basically true, however, him using the SALE prices is disingenuous. 

All the past prices he used were the prices of products on sale. 

I'm not disagreeing with the existence of inflation. 
 @9a8f090b looks like a new meme platform to me! 

I respect the effort, I've not even really tried to make new stuff 
 @9a8f090b Funny as hell!

 @1a78b0da @c1bd69cb @669563d8 I'm trying to get a description of the *style*. There's a very clear in grouping/outgrouping, has roots in grunge, or Portland lesbians, touch of goth maybe. An aesthetic. 

They walk around here (Minneapolis) and are quite obviously their own thing.

They are pretty douchey ;)

I'm sure they have a word for themselves, but I don't want to risk getting infected by asking then directly... but maybe I'll try!

 @9595301e @8f56b62c @c215902f I never seen this before. Looked up more. Really holds up, and the rawness gives it something. 

I like seeing how people act different back then too, more earthy.

If its fake, it's still a legitimate form of activism, and is for sure effective.

If it is fake, it also means people are getting off their asses to move culture. Something conservatives have been begging for for a long time.

 @440af60e

My big lesson for covid was just how long and how much shit people can get used to. It was like a slow as molasses shit hitting the fan, even in the beginning, when even the conspiracy theorists were hedging for the possibility of bad. 

Now, because the economic collapse is not a super immediate event (even less than a theoretical pandemic), I'm assuming we will see our standards of living degrade in slow motion and we will have plenty of warnings as we fall to 2nd world.

 @440af60e @986565cf the fact the deficit is on the top side of the chart was slightly confusing to me at first. 

Overall, it's clear we have just entered a new phase of fucked. 

But I've finally learned that it could take a lot longer than I expect to crumble. Interested to see just how bad things can get. 
 @d6a30e9c baby blue vs pink, like the internal struggle in the mind of a transitioning 50 year married man. 
 @9b5bdcb9 adjusted for inflation that scope's like $600. I bet it was super shitty too.

Nice to some improvements in firearm tech.

Been thinking about this, and something didn't click until now.

I'm guessing now, that over the last 5 years, he's not been trying very hard to get laid. Or else it would have been very likely to have happened. Which means they both don't very much like sex with each other enough to make an effort, for whatever reason. 

Not a happy state of things, but there they are, stuck.

I'm not sure it would be cheating at this point, if she is already out and about...

but I was more saying she might be just fine and even like the way things are. If he could see the how uneven their positions were, it might change his perspective. They both deserve happiness.

 @dabe0ad5 @b2e3a57d @f9408be4 @91f99226 @dd5fb5aa 

Even if he has given up on his happiness, I doubt she has. 

Maybe if he saw that some how, and the lack of fairness, he would have the energy to change things.

 @dabe0ad5 @b2e3a57d @f9408be4 @91f99226 @dd5fb5aa 

There might be other solutions, but would take some courage and work. It sounds like he's given up on his own happiness, and whatever is going on, she may like the arrangement. 

Very rough.

I was stunned. Tu...

It's pretty obvious you have no idea what I think, but that's understandable because I've never told you anything in this regard.

You just call me a fat republican, and tell me what I believe. 

I'm dumb for responding and of course, and will do better to stop, but it's very difficult for me. Sorry for that for sure! I'm working on it. 
 Right. "Incel" is purely an insult

Interesting it triggers you. It's a pretty uncreative term at this point to be sure. 
 Don't worry we're all incels doesn't matter how many kids we have lmao 
 Well I live in a trailer park and I don't have kids so maybe I'm not the best guy to ask

Incel is a description of people who aren't attractive enough to get laid.

Trying to blame society for your own problems is exactly what 'they' are doing. 

Go out and get some wins bro. In real life. I believe in you all.

For me, when someone is so ready to impose their will on a others so quickly,, there is more wrong with them than a little bit of talking to can solve.

If these guys ever got into a relationship, they would start to figure it out themselves. 

As is, not even the 35 year old fugly single ladies want them, as it should be, until they step up their game. 
 Actually I take that back- I don’t find it strange. I find it unnervingly typical actually. 
 @owl. @☢️ :jhg_s: :jhg_n: :jhg_e: :jhg_e: :jhg_d: :de... @Rick is getting laid (off) 

Looks like it's working itself out. 

All the incels responding, along side the single cat lady's like pea in a pod, are removing their own genes from the pool.

 @9a8f090b Glad to see your experiment is going good too!

I've hatched a lot of eggs, only with an incubator, but never let the mom do the work. 

Letting the mom do it all seems a much more natural, and effective way, even if there is some loss like in your case (but often the incubator is not 100% either). 

It's likely a lower hatch rate will make the genetics much stronger as well. 

No going back now!
