I'm not so far the the right as to say marxism is anti western or objectively wrong, it might be the former but honestly I have so many academic gripes with Marx's historical analysis among other things that I'm going to ignore it for now, but I do want to ask the communists out there one thing. If all landownership and capital is transferred to the state and all human conflict is based on class conflict, what is stopping the state from becoming the bourgeoisie and perpetuating the class conflict when it own's everything?

Only now they have defined constitutional legal authority over you an and you own literally nothing. That just kinda feels like end stage capitalism with extra steps.

Huh. I didn't know about this historical factoid. Neat to see. I wonder what caused the shift in how news presents things.

This just kinda feels like the reverse of what twitter was like before but it is still really bad. Like before you could just say shit like Kill all men or some such BS and changing the genders would get you banned (Both are objectively terrible statements and neither are a reflection of my beliefs) yet it was kinda understandable. Some people see them as a protected class by their disenfranchisement. But I have always felt that community guidelines, especially such vagaries as hate speech or hateful speech, should be uniformly applied. This is just the pendulum swinging in the opposite direction. Still terrible, but it is a little ironic. I feel like a lot of public free speech advocates just want to be the one's monitoring speech not actually allowing free speech.

I don't know why I want this so bad. I can feel my bones yearning for this. The issue I'm having is I can't tell if this is AI generated or if the photo ID this is about helping the visually impaired. The photo is good either way.

Reblog to let the demon come to you. Like to enlarge their power.

I had an objectively funny interaction the other day with my British friend over the phone. So I am diagnosed ADHD, have been since like second grade. Yet my girlfriend doesn't have any official diagnosis other than anxiety but keeps getting peer reviewed by other Autistic people as having many of the signs of autism. This made me think during a conversation with my British friend about how when I was younger I would only eat certain foods and how to this day I am perfectly content with eating the same food every time I go to a restaurant. Also, when I was a kid I ate peanut butter so much that my body started to have a reaction to it. (Not like anaphylaxis just got some bumps under my arm.)

Which made me think, hey thats neurodivergent but not very ADHD. So I say to my diagnosed British friend (not autistic but he has been diagnosed as British it's very unfortunate) that I think I might have autism as well and his immediate response was, "You think?" Apparently he and another one of my friends have thought that since they met me essentially. I'm not officially diagnosed, and I don't think one would help much, but almost all of my friends throughout my life have had some sort of diagnosis and now in college all of my close friends have it so... maybe real recognizes real?

Me but I'm attempting to find my car/apartment keys or wallet every time I have to drive or leave our apartment for any extended period of time. I keep saying I've got to have just leave them in the same place and never do. So I have to travel to Mordor and back in order to start my primary quest to get pasta noodles.

Mind zap media

I like the concept of creating media but dislike the actual process of making it. Like I kinda just want to think about the world building of the book/books I'm trying to write instead of trying to actually formulate dialogue or conflict over hundreds of pages of story. If I could just forcibly subject people to the insane fantasy world I have created over untold hours of sporadic ADHD creative periods spaced over several years that would much preferable to having to actually figure out how to make a compelling story to anybody but myself. Alas, I am not and eldritch horror capable of communicating things instantaneously and my friends and girlfriend will only listen to my inane ramblings for so long.

I have made a government sponsered terrorist

So I made a joined a Halo Mythic game recently and originally i was going to make a Spartan 3 and my original idea was going to be a demolitions specialist that was going to be kinda against the Unified Earth Government/UNSC. Because lets be real the UNSC / ONI kidnapped children from their parents replaced them with clones they knew would die a horrible painful death so their parents got to watch what they thought was their child die a horrible painful death and then indoctrinated them as child soldiers to suppress a rebellion, not fight the covenant. They're not the good guys you feel? Anyway, when happened was I gave him a ridiculous amount of INT, 68 to be exact, a large amount of strength and toughness, three ticks into demolitions, and two ticks into education demolitions assembly, finally then took the Imposing augment which makes what was already a large man up another size. Ending up with a savant montan of a man who is essentially a state sponsored terrorist made to fight terrorists. Additionally I took a couple ticks into camouflage so I have made perhaps the best ambush predator the HALO universe has ever seen. So yeah, I can't really play him as anti gov now.

Scene Practice

Akzire "Cunning" Van Heldenroose stepped onto the castle parapets, escaping the din and clash of competing voices from the war hall. The sound of aristocratic bickering died suddnely as he let the heavy oaken door slam shut behind him, and the quiet of the disturbed nighttime landscape pressed in on him from all sides. It was an oppressive and unnatural silence. Not a whisper of wind disturbed the warm night air. The night birds hid from the sky and the incessant insectoids that had terrorized him every summer since his youth made no errant noise. An unwavering unnatural stillness presided over the castle walls, stretching a single moment into an eternity of ominous foreboding.
