  • I don’t get DMs because no one recognizes me.

    I literally walked into a bar with 14-15 men and women from my graduating class. I recognized and named each one. Not a single one of them recognized me.

    I can blend in with a fed, doctor, magat, retail employee, door sales man.

    For a long time the invisibility was painful.

    But recently I realize, it can have a lot of power too.


  • The declaration really can’t be highlighted like that. It undermines the gravity of the letter, but I understand people don’t like to read.

    Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient Causes; and accordingly all Experience hath shewn, that Mankind are more disposed to suffer, while Evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the Forms to which they are accustomed.

    Essentially, they say that people are willing to endure suffering for the sake of not having to change their lives. But Then it follows that with

    But when a long Train of Abuses and Usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object, evinces a Design to reduce them under absolute Despotism

    When all people can no longer ignore that the government is forcing everything to have an absolute ruler, the people will come to the conclusion that the government must end by force.

    While a lot of people agree with this, it’s not enough. When I go to work, everyone is still going about their day like nothing has really changed. Too many people still have shelter, food, and medicine. That’s about to change now. And when people experience that, that is the time they will overthrow.

    The reason they want revolutionary violence to occur earlier than later is because they still have the opportunity to turn the most brain washed against the rest of us.

    I see all these stupid boyfriend/stupid husband stuff, and I can’t help but think maybe my ex wife was just jealous of her friends that had stupid men in their lives.

    And maybe I’m just overqualified for relationships. I mean, shit, that was the advice my brother gave me: “I get along with people because they’re much smarter than me.” One of the first red flags I remembery ex wife telling me was “you know you don’t have to be so smarty all the time.”

    Ok, no, I can’t even lie to myself that well, can you imagine? Being overqualified for dating lol

    Well let’s see, known cat breeds:

    Orange, Tuxedo, Standard Issue, Void, Siamese (my parents had a flame point siamese that was weird), naked wrinkly cat, Fluffball.

    Think that about covers it.

    Edit: Oh yes, Torties and Calicos, and I forgot one I love: Tactical Issue! Some people think they’re just sneaky cats. Nope! Grey and white stripes that blend in well with urban environments

    Yeah, IDK if I have the energy to get abs.

    I’ve got definition on my arms, back and legs, but the abs require effort I can’t give yet. Plus an additional 15 lbs of fat and probably need all the excess skin removed.

    As it stands the lifting and cardio are a lot. Changing it to HIIT 200+ minute a week is just not going to happen lol

    Look there are two kinds of people with breaking bad.

    Those who loved it, and those who haven’t watched much or any of it.

    My ex got me into it, and she’s kind of… Well, shes not brilliant. So I didn’t take her recommendations too seriously most of the time (I really don’t enjoy Teen Mom or 90 day fiance or 600lb life). But this? This show hooked me. It takes quite a few liberties with the sciency bits and lawyer bits, but it’s fun even with a bit of knowledge cause it starts with something being “technically correct.” It’s well written more than anything.





  • Still, that’s pretty impressive. Cats are absolutely incredible animals. I’m thankful the “worst behaved cats” still love me for whatever reason because I’ve been able to see some of the crazy shit they do.

    My parents have an entirely blind 18 year old cat. She can navigate the entire house eats fine, plays a bit. Hops up and down furniture, finds the sunbathing spots, uses the litter just fine. You do have to keep an eye out for her if your moving around as she can’t smell fast enough if you step in front of her path.
