lol I live right outside of Bellevue and it gets a lot of flack for “having no soul” because it’s a bigish city built from new money but it’s a perfectly nice place otherwise, I think it’s “too nice” for some people because it’s mostly still very new. I like Bellevue personally

Bakersfield California, drive through it once. It was like someone was making the most depressing movie about drugs and prostitution and dilapidated infrastructure so they built Bakersfield to be the backdrop

Shoe sales at a long gone sports and adventure store called GI Joes

But it doesn’t look like that to the human eye, if the human eye could see that far, all the colors are translated data. Your eye would see nothing but faint gray smudges if you could recreate that image with your eyes and brain

JFC!! I don’t realize he and I were the same age wow he must be living hard

Why do I care about popularity? I don’t want to be on mega platforms and I don’t understand why that’s the bar. As long as a platform is generally self sustaining or very slow growing that’s plenty good.

You’re saying I should open a car wash?

Don’t make me post my autism spectrum gun again

Getting just a little makes it worse. At least in a sense of deprivation you get used to it but then when you get some you really notice its absence.

Zipper merge is intended to happen at a gore point. Zippers aren’t randomly closed at various sections and open at others, they close from one end - that’s where the merge is. It’s very literally like a zipper.

I’m a tax payer and I’m going to drive in all the lanes I paid for then zipper merge when needed. If we all pile up in one lane because we are too collectively stupid to use all our lanes and zipper merge then we are the traffic we deserve.

Israel, Russia and the US is the new axis of evil

Ugh watch me install this then have it just be government owned spyware

Been regularly going to a UU church (I’m an atheist but it’s not a religious church it’s about being a good person through service and community) and been volunteering at the food bank more and more, actually spent most of today at the food bank doing just that. It’s been an uphill battle but I’m starting to socialize more and maybe even have some budding friendships starting.

So much advice is to lean on your support system but when you don’t have one what are you supposed to do? So I decided to basically just start from scratch and so far so good

Recruiting a celebrity is always helpful if you plan on growing your a cult

I have that iron trap memory that stubbornly holds onto waaaay too much and I still do it this. Most things actually are inconsequential, what takeout I get for example is completely irrelevant. I don’t need to think about it (very much) so why am I? I’d like to use my brain power on things that actually matter to me not sweating the small stuff.

I mean I have them with me… you’re telling me you don’t want to see them?

A socialist advocating for socialism?? WELL I NEVER!!

They’re always on and under my boobs too?? Like it would be one thing if it was on my chest but there’s a big open area of nothing with a design only on or under my boobs? I think they’re just not made with women in mind 90% of the time even when it’s sold in women’s sizes
