    The news is on, basically opening with "we are going to get to the school shooting soon, but first let's open with the most recent police shooting"

          I am an orthodox Groucho Marxist, and that's why I get "Lydia, the Tattooed Lady" stuck in my head every time I read one of @Lydia 's megathreads.

      Idk how anyone can have optimism about the world. Maybe I should read some of his work and see if I can find some of my own

    My partner, my best friend, my lover might have lupus or something funky auto-immune. They dont know, apparently this kind of thing is very hard to diagnose but the docs are roping in just about every specialist you could think of. Bills or insurance isnt a problem, I live in Canada.

    Any comrades that have something like it with tips for managing symptoms or flare ups if my partner has it?

      Might be worth making a post.

      Could also be fibromyalgia. They're two diseases you get diagnosed with if they can't figure anything else out. I don't know much about lupus, but if it functions similarly to fibro and I'm pretty sure it does, then one of the best things you can do is manage the inflammation in your body via diet. Food intolerances, stress, or anything else that triggers inflammation will likely also trigger a flare up. For my wife any time she eats gluten she's out of commission for at least a day if not more

    I'm excited to announce the beginning of a new bit. Starting approximately whenever I feel like it, and continuing at intervals of whenever I feel like it, until such a time as I get bored or forget the account password, @BusinessOwner will be chiming in to share the valuable perspective of the most marginalized group of all: corporate executives.

    I only enjoy naps when it's sunny outside. There's something almost erotic about sleeping when the world itself conspires to keep you awake.

      What does this even mean? An NFT of an image of the Spotify logo? The desktop app in its current version?

    I think we'll see the "by mistake" defense a lot in the next couple years.

    On CNN I just heard that the cop that killed Daunte Wright said she fired her gun "by mistake" and she meant to use her taser.

      Got a batman utility belt with a million different things on it and my dumb ass can't find the taser from the handgun. Fine police work.

        Maybe the murder pigs will also say they "forgot" what their dominate hand is.

        CNN also said that for those cops - their gun is on the side of their dominate hand and their taster on their weak side. I assume that's a norm in police departments all across the country.

      "oopsie my bad i meant to use my stunny gunny" says officer of 25 years who is well aware tasers are on their opposite side and feel completely different in hand after aiming at him for nearly three seconds before shooting him in the back.

        Get ready to hear, once again, how the police are the best and the bravest, but simultaneously how this was just an oopsie that anyone could have made and you can't blame her for being an incompetent coward.
