That’s pretty foul. I have some sympathy for the patrons if that’s the case. Nowhere that I read was cannibalism mentioned. I’d argue arresting those involved if that’s the truth. Prions are fucking deadly serious and survive outside the body, after a person dies, and until picked up by something else. And they’ll hop species too. The literal embodiment of the dark world, just pure evil anti-life. There’s a proper analogy in some video game somewhere that I’m not finding at the moment…idk. it’s like, imagine every prion is a burnt out crystal on an LCD screen. Once there’s enough out there…it’s game over.

I wonder how extreme the piercings were. What qualifies as extreme to the Germans…

Long syringes into the glutamis maximus? Or syringes piercing labia? Youchie.

Extreme like metal chopsticks thru cheeks?

Extreme like suspending people by hooks into their backs? Cuz that’s just a Tuesday for some people.

Or maybe running a sword between the liver and kidneys? It can be done, just thru flesh, missing the internal organs. I’d call that pretty extreme, none of which would make me nauseous tho. Degloving is the only thing that’s made my stomach physically feel like it was turning over, and if you don’t know what that is, I don’t recommend finding out.

Politics is nothing but coordinated violence, in that it is nothing but coercion of people against their own interests. If you’re an interested party, than youre adding to the coercion of others. If you stay out of it, then it’s not political to you is it?

Politics:violence

Politics:economics

Economics:violence

Try telling people whose rent has doubled or tripled within a decade that economics isn’t violence. You’ll experience some carnal violence in return, I’m sure.

Politics = violence; it’s the NC-17 version, violence all grown up and sophisticated. Sanitized for TV, in it for the sound bites. In fact, I’d say at least half of it is theatre alone. It’s even been packaged up for the people to play along from home. The evolution of violence, fun for the whole family. I mean, what else would we talk about come holidays? HELPING each other?!?

Binges new rabbit hole every night Adds polymath to resume

That’s the standard issue. Helmet on soldier, you wanna live forever?

I feel like the GI Bill should only cover tuition at state schools. Idk why. Otherwise just gives me the ick.

I don’t like government giving money to private institutions or companies when theres a public option, ESPECIALLY when the private parties receiving that money are the same people who bemoan about government being “the problem”, deregulation/needs to be dismantled, etc.

Ifyou look back thru history, ALL aristocracy, Mr. TheAristocrat, is heavily comingled in government - for everything. They just want all the government money for themselves. Duplicitous motherfuckers. That’s the kind of person that’ll trip you if a bear starts chasing the two of you.

I don’t have it in me to deadname him.

I also don’t have it in me to speak towards his defense if anyone else deadnames him.

She’s been a superstar a whole lot longer than this past year.

She became a billionaire in the past year. You know how hard that is to do as an artist? She’s been at this a minute. Like 2 decades of superstar minutes.

The correct answer is

Fuck Pavlov

Motherfucker is like the Hitler of dogs. It’s a shame his name is remembered for the conditioning and not the mutilation. Dude was a monster.

I agree with what yr saying but it all makes me think you’ve never tried, whether on purpose or not, fentanyl.

Fent…makes you absolutely retarded when yr on it, but when you are, you are transported to the warm busom of God til you snap out of it. You don’t care about anything, hunger, cold, any trauma, any worries, any stressors. It all melts away for that short amount of time.

Besides the physical addiction sending a need as strong as thirst in the desert, that reprieve from pain is addicting all it’s own. A good majority of people actively using and seeking out fent assume they’ll die from it, and they’re fine with that.

I’ve never been on the ban drugs train, I think the subjective exploration of consciousness and meta-reality are incredibly important for people, be that in personal mental health and growth, artistically and spiritually. At the same time, I think letting Shamans control the flow isn’t a terrible idea, but if implemented should also come with an end date after society comes to terms with itself. I think terminal patients should be given as much DMT as they want for as long as they want it, it’s like making practice runs at the other side. I think ibogaine should be widely available for resetting addictions back to null, but that should prob be a guided trip, same thing with ayehuasca.

But fent shouldn’t be allowed outside a medical setting. The opioid receptor is devil in a red dress; dance with the devil, devil don’t change, devil changes you.

In a kinder society we would prescribe meds that turn off pain receptors, like the ones developed from jellyfish and other neurotoxins, but that would prob be stipulated with forced, active restraint bed rest. We don’t use those now because pain let’s us know when we push too far, otherwise we’d just keep reinjuring ourselves. But fent gives that absence of pain too, and coupled with the i-cant-stress-how-extreme-cravings people will look at the work necessary to holistically end their pains and just say, nah man. At the cost of everything. Parents abandoning children. Cuz once their high, they don’t care. So they just plan to stay forever high.

I’m all for banning fent.

It’s the embodiment of my second favorite malaphor “build a man a fire and he’s warm for a night, but set a man on fire and he’s warm for the rest of his life”

Its allowed. Using a tool to help you IS NOT.

Betting table max, 3 hands, out of nowhere is a big indication you’re counting. It is, after all, a betting strategy.

And casinos stop it because if they allow it it could shut the whole place down. A business that loses money doesn’t stay open for long.

I’ve been a shift manager at casinos for years. I can tell the counters a mile away. I can deal a shoe and tell you the count at any point. I don’t kick em out, but I’ll flat bet them. Say the betting spread is $5-$500, right? They’ve played 10 hands at $5, now they bet $500. I’ll walk over and place a new placard on the table, $25-$25. They can only bet $25 a hand, no variation.

Anyone who’s there to press an advantage will walk immediately. And then we’ll make a dossier on them and it’ll get shared, nationally.

Yep. It is like that. Would you expect less, c’mon.
