I don’t want to discuss the incident in detail because it was very traumatic, but long story short, I had a near-drowning incident when I was 12 (technically not a drowning because I survived). I was technically dead for several minutes.

I saw nothing. total blank. I remember flashes of struggling to get to the side of the pool one moment, and flashes of waking up in an ambulance the next. then it cuts out again, and then I woke up in a hospital room with tubes in all my holes (plus some tubes in new holes) and surrounded by my mom and brothers.

I feel bad for the employees who have to clean that mess.

especially because 1) it will be trashed again in 30 minutes, and 2) they get paid crap

that would be a really cool trend to start

well, it would be very geeky, but still cool

PRECIOUS!

well, I appreciate that ❤️

setting up the whole coin system would create server costs. you can already donate.

thanks, but…. aren’t you glad it doesn’t have that useless crap?

so… how do you like openSuSE after 3 years of fedora?

by getting it surgically altered. I could never show the old face ever again.

also, moving and changing my name.

yikes

pay your workers a fair wage! end tipping culture!

Plus the Founders caused their own bout of chaos

well, technically, FC assimilated Earth happened in an alternate timeline, but you make a good point about the Domino War and wanting to avoid that. So, yeah, I’d want to arrive after that ended.

getting your door kicked in by a gang of cops about to shoot you to death tends to wake a person up

what misinformation?

oh, definitely TNG-era Star Trek.

Socialist Space Utopia where I can be or do whatever I like anywhere I like, free of need and want? Sounds awesome!

What would I do? Explore the endless opportunities!

In a party made of bullies, bigots, and fascists, it seems like a natural progression.

it makes sense when you start from the premise that republicans are self-serving liars and bullies who will claim victimhood no matter the circumstances in an attempt to villainize their opponents against whom they have no real, substantive arguments.

hell, even in 2016, when Trump won the election, he still claimed that it was rigged!

well, if they’re shifting the definition of “conservative” to what others call a “domestic terrorist who made death threats against the President and then had a shootout with the FBI rather than surrender,” then yeah, those people should watch out.

Flagged where?
