00:43 DaemonFC; schestowitz: Yeah, the fact that the landlord needs to "stabilize another building" says a lot.

00:44 DaemonFC; He's getting really slap happy with the evictions over here too. As soon as a person is a month behind on their rent, he evicts them. He was telling me that woman was "eight months behind" and "we tried to work with her", but nobody in the records was more than 3 months behind (assuming that they pay the same rent we do).

00:47 DaemonFC; I get that he has a business to run but this sort of comment is not "We have to break her neck. It's the job. Sorry.", it's trying to portray it as her being so delinquent in rent that it was nearly the entire year's lease when in fact I cannot find any records that corroborate that he is giving people even a month to figure it out.

00:48 DaemonFC; Although, to be fair, none of the people he evicted showed up and said anything.

00:49 DaemonFC; Unless you have the rent, there's not much you can do. He'd be ordered to accept it and cure the lease if you can pay him, but other than that all you can really do is maybe slow him down a month or two.

00:51 DaemonFC; schestowitz: I drafted a response to my cousin's adopted daughter's landlord trying to evict her and was successful in getting the case thrown out twice, and he lost the court costs both times and eventually gave up.

00:52 DaemonFC; They're not careful to follow the rules because it normally works like this. "The person doesn't show up and say anything."

00:53 DaemonFC; In the two cases I got the eviction process thrown out, it was under Indiana Trial Rule 41(e) and Indiana Trial Rule 5.

00:53 admfubar; https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/article/2024/may/04/the-internet-is-in-decline-it-needs-rewilding

00:53 TR Bot; The internet is in decline it needs rewilding | John Naughton | The Guardian

00:54 DaemonFC; The 41(e) rule is a quirk of Indiana law that says when something is without action for 60 days, either party can file a 41(e) motion to dismiss. It's a dismissal without prejudice, but the landlord lost $200 that time because he didn't proceed quickly enough.

00:54 DaemonFC; The first time, he served her notice to a construction worker at a house she neither owned nor lived in.

00:55 DaemonFC; So it violated Rule 5.

00:56 DaemonFC; And once he realized that someone was helping her who knew exactly how to cut him down and make him lose $200 a pop that he could never ask for again, he decided to swallow the $1,100 he claimed that she owed him for unpaid rent and the $900 for the dog chewing the carpet.

00:57 DaemonFC; In other words, "I don't have to win. All I have to do is hold you off and force you to re-file and lose fees you'll never recover."

00:58 DaemonFC; She had already been out for a while so it wasn't a case where she was an ongoing tenant that wasn't paying rent. So he eventually moved on.

01:01 DaemonFC; I didn't bother to correct him that this was an improper case type, because if he filed it as an eviction the third time, I would have countered that it's not an eviction if the landlord himself admitted she was already gone and he had re-rented the apartment.

01:02 DaemonFC; The important thing is to never blow the wad in one spot.

01:03 DaemonFC; Let them continue to make the other errors you know about and then complain about the errors one at a time.

01:03 bagiraX; that's a losing strategy

01:03 DaemonFC; It's not.

01:04 DaemonFC; The judge threw each case out and cost him the filing fee again each time until he gave up.

01:04 bagiraX; when an enemy is taking actions that will harm you in a barrage like that the best way is to disable them because they'll eventually get a hit in

01:04 bagiraX; i mean it depends on how many of their hits you can take i guess

01:04 bagiraX; if youre of means it can work

01:04 DaemonFC; bagiraX: The counterargument that you make initially is not the only opportunity to file motions.

01:04 TR News; "The basic premise is that you can send short, end-to-end encrypted text messages over the LoRa protocol using commodity hardware that costs as little as $20 USD. Meshtastic radios form a mesh network such that messages can be relayed through other nodes beyond the range of a single radio." gemini://lark.gay/posts/exploring-meshtastic.gmi

01:05 bagiraX; ^ love seeing communities expand radio

01:06 bagiraX; we could literally replace the internet with radio-based nics

01:06 DaemonFC; bagiraX: When I was dealing with the prosecutor, I corroded the case one way at a time.

01:06 bagiraX; and it would cut out ISPs

01:06 DaemonFC; There was a time and place for everything.

01:07 bagiraX; DaemonFC: suit yourself, but its better to have one big case thrown out than take on a thousand suits

01:09 DaemonFC; Not really. If I corrected everything he could file it again and get everything right.

01:09 DaemonFC; There was no argument against her not paying the rent and the dog chewing up the carpet.

01:10 DaemonFC; So the only way to counter was to keep stinging him until he gave up and cut his losses.

01:12 DaemonFC; bagiraX: The only argument I would have had as to the facts had he kept re-filing would have been "He didn't credit her the deposit and so she only really owed him $800 less than the amount he demanded."

01:12 DaemonFC; Better to keep the powder dry.

01:13 DaemonFC; I still had the option to deploy this one had he filed a fourth time having lost $600 more that he would never get back.

02:12 DaemonFC; To prevent the timing chain from flying off.

02:13 DaemonFC; They upgraded the water pump to one with a metal impeller.

02:13 DaemonFC; And they upgraded the plastic pulleys in the driveshaft to metal.

02:13 DaemonFC; And the various coolant pipes and stuff.

02:13 DaemonFC; In some ways, the engine looked very well designed to me.

02:13 DaemonFC; And in other ways, BMW is obviously designing them to kill themselves at a certain point.

02:14 DaemonFC; They're making so many weak spots that are designed to fail and cause catastrophic engine damage after 60,000-100,000 miles.

06:46 TR Bot; ( status 403 @ https://old.reddit.com/r/LateStageCapitalism/comments/1ck5sfj/there_are_now_over_15_million_empty_homes_in_the/ )

06:46 DaemonFC; > []Ausgezeichnet87 46 points 10 hours ago

06:46 DaemonFC; > 42 million Americans live on food stamps with another 8 million that would qualify for food assistance but have not applied for unknown reasons. So I think the number of Americans who live in poverty is closer to 50 million

06:46 DaemonFC; I replied,

06:46 DaemonFC; > They probably haven't applied because their lives aren't going so well that they can keep up with the paperwork the State deliberately buries you under and demands that you continuously fill out.

06:46 DaemonFC; > Not that there is much in the way of food stamps anymore with the hyperinflation. A can of coffee these days will eat up about 1/5th of the monthly benefit for a household member getting the maximum amount.

06:47 bagiraX; thats out of like 333 million though

06:47 bagiraX; thats a pretty good ratio, 50M / 333M

06:47 DaemonFC; And it's probably the highest number ever even though the pandemic rules and extra allotments are gone.

06:48 DaemonFC; That the "richest country in the world" puts almost 1/6th of the population below the poverty line and eligible for food stamps?

06:48 DaemonFC; Which means they have barely any income and no savings.

06:48 bagiraX; poverty is no great honor but its naive to think that there can be no poverty without everyone being "almost in poverty"

06:48 DaemonFC; They rig the poverty line.

06:48 bagiraX; your ideals are noble but would reduce all of humanity to a perpetual and inescapable mediocrity that would halt our evolution as a species

06:49 DaemonFC; So you have to account for the fact that about half the country can't pay their bills.

06:49 DaemonFC; But only 1/6th get help from the government.

06:49 DaemonFC; :)

06:49 DaemonFC; This leads to the "I'm broke, but according to the government I'm doing fine."

06:49 bagiraX; being poor is supposed to suck

06:49 DaemonFC; Can't afford healthcare. But "I'm fine."

06:49 DaemonFC; Can't afford rent, but "I'm fine."

06:49 bagiraX; when youre poor and it sucks, you work hard to build a life that isn't so poor

06:50 DaemonFC; Can't afford to eat, but "I'm fine."

06:50 DaemonFC; Working two jobs, but "I'm fine."

06:50 bagiraX; thats why at this moment there are millions of college kids in dorm rooms eating ramen noodles after a shift at McShitBurger

06:50 DaemonFC; Yeah, so they can go on to find out there is no career, they were lied to, they owe a terrible amount of student loans they can't pay, and McShitBurger goes on and on forever.

06:50 DaemonFC; :)

06:50 bagiraX; it's -supposed- to suck so they can broaden their horizons and learn to be self-sufficient and even thrive

06:50 DaemonFC; That's America.

06:51 DaemonFC; Most people aren't thriving and won't thrive no matter what they do.

06:51 DaemonFC; So there are more and more revenge against society incidents.

06:51 bagiraX; then they shouldn't be paid as much as people who are

06:51 DaemonFC; Which the news, like Communist China, doesn't cover.

06:51 DaemonFC; Or quickly turns away from.

06:52 DaemonFC; This country sucks to the point where even when the victims of a mass shooting are members of Congress, nothing changes.

06:52 DaemonFC; They may introduce a bill about keeping guns away so that people who are distraught only commit suicide.

06:52 bagiraX; do you really think some kid who just passed his SATs, has only been out on his own for 2 years, and is dependent on financial assistance should be paid the same as i am?

06:52 DaemonFC; But they don't even pass those bills.

06:52 DaemonFC; So then nothing changes.

06:53 bagiraX; being poor is an incentive to compete

06:53 DaemonFC; Walmart's CEO earned $6.80 an hour in 1984 at an entry level job at Walmart.

06:53 DaemonFC; If they paid the inflation-adjusted amount of what he got, the minimum wage at Walmart would be over $20 an hour now.

06:54 DaemonFC; Instead, they pay about $15-16 and brag about paying almost 25% less than Doug McMillon made in 1984 unloading trucks at a store.

06:54 bagiraX; you're once again overlooking that currency inflation isn't the only kind of inflation -- there are also more people now

06:54 bagiraX; so inflation-adjusted wages don't take into account population growth

06:55 DaemonFC; If they only paid what Doug McMillon made as a truck unloader in 1984, adjusted for inflation, then I think people would be doing a lot better than they are.

06:55 DaemonFC; But that's how rich people are. The ones that have been poor and escape, throw everyone else off the ladder.

06:55 bagiraX; you're trying to compare the nutritional content of a cornstalk grown in someone's garden a hundred years ago to one from a mass-production farm today after generations of soil depletion

06:56 DaemonFC; So the problem rebounds on corporate America, right?

06:56 DaemonFC; They got greedy and started allowing wages to get cut via inflation.

06:56 bagiraX; no, unfortunately, the problem rebounds on the federal reserve

06:56 DaemonFC; Now people have to find savings because they can't make what they used to.

06:56 DaemonFC; So who do they take it out on? Walmart.

06:56 bagiraX; walmart is practically a government entity at this point. bad example. they need to fail.

06:56 DaemonFC; They take it out on Walmart, they take it out on Disney, they take it out on Procter & Gamble.

06:57 DaemonFC; The only way I'd go to Disney World is if I got free tickets.

06:57 DaemonFC; It's so much more expensive and horrible than it used to be, like everything else of course.

06:57 DaemonFC; In the 1990s, people got months of paid vacation.

06:57 DaemonFC; It was common to load the car up twice that summer for two vacations.

06:58 DaemonFC; One year we went to the Ozarks and Disney World in the same summer.

06:58 bagiraX; look im just saying, the poor need to be poor for their own development. that some never crawl out of that is only a societal failure marker if they were blocked by lack of opportunity to adapt

06:58 DaemonFC; I'll tell you how we adapt.

06:58 DaemonFC; We adapt buy not buying much of anything.

06:58 DaemonFC; *by

06:59 bagiraX; such as conditions that -prevent- anyone from being anything but poor, like in situations where you see wealth redistribution or communism

7 AM, May 5

07:00 bagiraX; when it comes to money, just remember: WWCD. If it's not what Chris would do, don't do it.

07:01 bagiraX; landlord sucks? move. can't move? make more money and then move. can't make more money? acquire better skillsets and then get a better job. no jobs available or can't acquire skillsets? re-evaluate your goals.

07:02 bagiraX; i spent many many years tunneling through the bowels of corporate america with a little shawshank redemption rock pick. i was a dumb kid when I started. If I can, then anyone can.

07:07 bagiraX; everyone'll tell you the whole way that you aren't smart enough, or that you don't have the background or some magical undefinable trait, and they've got their own motivators that have nothing to do with you

07:07 bagiraX; so its one of those where you have to make your source of validation internal and based on meeting goals and growth

07:08 bagiraX; because outside, its all bullshit

07:08 bagiraX; everyone knows it is too and they'll even acknowledge that

07:08 bagiraX; but when you pick a specific instance of that bullshit and point it out they won't recognize it as bullshit

07:08 bagiraX; they can smell it but most can't see it

07:10 bagiraX; im not even sure that's relevant though because it begs the question "why are you holding onto bullshit" instead of discarding it and going for better

07:11 bagiraX; people who dont thrive and dont have some barrier almost all have that trait in common... they just tolerate bullshit

07:12 bagiraX; "it is what it is"

07:12 bagiraX; "thats just how things work here"

07:14 DaemonFC; I've been getting cheaper and cheaper.

07:14 DaemonFC; Reallocating funds from things I can do differently.

07:15 bagiraX; dont you want to live better

07:15 bagiraX; when this is all over you can't just rewind and do it again

07:15 DaemonFC; Well, I never really had to worry about things like which razor blades I was using. I just went in the store and bought the ones I liked.

07:15 DaemonFC; Then Biden got in and fucked everything up so badly and let the demons like my landlord run amok,.

07:16 DaemonFC; So everything costs twice as much now.

07:16 bagiraX; so make twice as much

07:16 DaemonFC; I got a power washer and started washing my car in the driveway.

07:16 DaemonFC; There's $56 I'm not paying anymore each month.

07:17 bagiraX; great so now have your neighbor pay you a hundred to do it for him every month

07:17 bagiraX; then do the other neighbor

07:24 DaemonFC; I don't know who programmed this washing machine for a 9 minute spin.

07:24 DaemonFC; I have to do a custom program to get it to 5 minutes every time.

07:26 DaemonFC; I think I should only have to do these pajamas once maybe.

07:26 DaemonFC; The OC went off in my jeans, I washed those 4 times before it all came out.

07:27 DaemonFC; Then, wearing the same underwear, not realizing why my leg hurt (figured a bug bit me or something), I changed into my pajamas and mildly contaminated those.

07:28 DaemonFC; The underwear went through with the jeans. I'll have to see if there's still any OC left in the pajamas.

07:33 DaemonFC; Then run everything else that wasn't contaminated through on Rapid because it's getting late, and then decontaminate the hamper with all purpose cleaner.

07:37 bagiraX; OC?

07:37 DaemonFC; Pepper spray.

07:37 DaemonFC; I don't have a normal reaction to hot peppers.

07:37 bagiraX; its not a useful deterrent anyway

07:38 DaemonFC; So even though OC is about 5 million Scoville units, it just felt like a bug bite or something, but then I started coughing a bit and my nose itched.

07:38 DaemonFC; So I popped some Benadryl figuring maybe allergies.

07:38 bagiraX; i dont know about you but if i were having a heated interaction and someone sprayed pepper spray in my eyes it would almost certainly escalate it to a physical conflict

07:39 bagiraX; just buy a gun

07:39 DaemonFC; I have several.

07:39 DaemonFC; There's places you can't go in with one or they can charge you with a crime.

07:39 *psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has left #techrights

07:39 DaemonFC; So I take OC and a retractable baton.

07:40 bagiraX; well that's fiar

07:40 bagiraX; *fair

07:40 DaemonFC; Spray the eyes, clunk the head.

07:40 DaemonFC; :)

07:40 bagiraX; depends on who you do it to i guess

07:40 *psydruid (~psydruid@jevhxkzmtrbww.irc) has joined #techrights

07:40 bagiraX; ive seen that actually reduce some kids to sobbing tears

07:40 bagiraX; ive seen others just get really fucking mad and go berzerk and start pulling arms out of sockets

07:40 DaemonFC; The whole point is if you hit near the eyes, throat, and mouth, it'll knock them off balance for a moment.

07:40 DaemonFC; Then out comes the baton and you beat the shit out of them.

07:41 DaemonFC; I've considered getting a taser.

07:41 DaemonFC; I'm allowed to have one of those too.

07:41 DaemonFC; But when you fire them, a bunch of "confetti" comes out and it tells the cops who shot the guy with the taser.

07:42 bagiraX; these are all "use it and then run" kind of deterrents man

07:42 bagiraX; they aren't "use it and then stick around" kind of things

07:42 DaemonFC; But the concept itself is pretty good. You can lay it on the ground and keep it turned on and it'll keep shocking them for about 20 minutes.

07:43 DaemonFC; Maybe I want to taser the attacker and then run off and not even report it.

07:43 bagiraX; there's that

07:43 DaemonFC; You can't do that because of the serial confetti.

07:43 bagiraX; ive seen some dudes the tazers dont work on at all

07:43 bagiraX; they'll just beat your ass

07:44 DaemonFC; The problem is this is a state where the criminals have more rights than the people they attack.

07:44 bagiraX; the human will is an incredible thing

07:44 DaemonFC; It's not as bad as Canada, where they don't want you to spray a rapist with pepper spray because he may experience discomfort and you're supposed to let him rape you apparently.

07:44 DaemonFC; They're not good to real women in Canada.

07:45 DaemonFC; Pepper spray isn't going to kill anyone.

07:45 DaemonFC; So the message Canada is sending is the comfort level of the rapist is paramount.

07:45 DaemonFC; It's a fucking awful country.

07:46 bagiraX; just buy a gun

07:46 DaemonFC; The Supreme Court needs to slap Pritzker down and restore civil rights here.

07:46 DaemonFC; You have no chance against the woke Democrat agenda unless you can get it into federal court.

07:47 DaemonFC; The Democrats pass laws that are not even actual laws.

07:47 DaemonFC; Then if you try going after them at the state level, you have no chance, because they've appointed a bunch of "judges" that don't care what the Constitution says.

07:48 DaemonFC; Short of hanging them all and starting over (which I'm not advocating), I don't know what a solution would even be.

07:48 bagiraX; yeah the deliberate dumbing down of citizens only works in kingdoms, not democratic republics, otherwise the people writing the laws are coming from the pool of people that are being dumbed down

07:48 bagiraX; and then you get this

07:49 DaemonFC; The Democrat that wrote the "no cash bail" law tried to pass another one that said the cops can't pull you over for speeding on a city street unless you're going over 60 miles an hour.

07:49 DaemonFC; And they couldn't pull you over on the freeway unless you were doing over 90.

07:49 DaemonFC; They just looks at whatever laws black people get charged with and try to repeal those laws.

07:49 DaemonFC; They don't even care what it will do to the community.

07:49 DaemonFC; *look

07:50 DaemonFC; The law actually said unless you were going over 26 miles per hour over the limit, so freeway is 65-70 mostly.

07:50 DaemonFC; City streets are like 30-35.

07:51 DaemonFC; So I talked to my alderman and said "If they pass it, we need to lower the speed limit to 15 miles an hour."

07:52 bagiraX; might be time to just throw it away and start over with a new one up there

07:52 DaemonFC; With another sign that explains that you get a criminal citation if you exceed 41.

07:52 DaemonFC; Yeah, so I can hardly wait for them to decide the murder law needs thrown out and so does the felony gang one.

07:52 bagiraX; canada is a cold place with little going for it

07:52 DaemonFC; And all of the drug ones, obviously.

07:52 bagiraX; they can't be fucking around with governance overreach

07:53 DaemonFC; And the graffiti laws, naturally.

07:53 DaemonFC; And the rape ones probably.

07:54 bagiraX; fwiw the far left responsible for most of the decay of western society over the last 40-50 years has almost exhausted its credibility by proving its policy demands dont work

07:57 bagiraX; so you'll start to see reactionary development towards the right over the next 40-50 years

07:57 bagiraX; the smarter folks on the left will allow that to happen as well because if they fight it too hard, they can delay it but it might completely wipe out their party's existence due to waning public support

07:58 bagiraX; sometimes its better to lose for now to keep the war going

8 AM, May 5

08:03 DaemonFC; The left is becoming more and more unhinged.

08:03 DaemonFC; I used to consider myself fairly left-leaning.

08:03 DaemonFC; But this is something else.

08:03 DaemonFC; This is not the New Deal or the Great Society.

08:04 DaemonFC; This is a gang that wants to tear down our country.

08:04 bagiraX; nobody's rooting for terrorists, you're just the target market for israeli propaganda

08:04 bagiraX; those people are protesting for humans rights not hamas

08:04 DaemonFC; Hamas is FAMOUS for human rights.

08:04 DaemonFC; :)

08:04 DaemonFC; Death to infidels? Human rights obviously.

08:04 DaemonFC; Kill the gays? That's human rights too.

08:05 DaemonFC; Hamas is the humanitarian party.

08:05 DaemonFC; :P

08:05 bagiraX; moreso than the IDF, but, no, they're talking about the Palestinian civilian men, women, and children being assassinated outside of their homes or on the way to school, or in food lines

08:05 bagiraX; or hospitals or churches

08:05 bagiraX; you've been tricked into forgetting your humanity

08:05 DaemonFC; It's a shame that they won't get them all.

08:05 DaemonFC; It's the only way this would ever end.

08:06 bagiraX; you'd fit right in at a party meeting for the reich

08:06 DaemonFC; Not really.

08:06 DaemonFC; They exterminated the gays alongside the Jews.

08:07 DaemonFC; The non-"Palestine" areas of Israel are the only place in the Middle East I would be safe.

08:07 bagiraX; yes, you would, because you're able to be tricked into ignoring the humanity of non-combatant men, women and children in wholesale quanities for a political reason for values sustained entirely by propaganda

08:07 DaemonFC; Where gay sex isn't criminalized.

08:07 DaemonFC; And where they would recognize my marriage.

08:07 DaemonFC; Israel is the only "LGBT" ally in the region.

08:07 DaemonFC; The Muslims are murderous animals.

08:07 DaemonFC; Who started this.

08:08 DaemonFC; And brought down anything that happens next on themselves.

08:08 bagiraX; "these people don't live the way I would and dont approve of my lifestyle, so they should be killed as children"

08:08 bagiraX; and you think you're not just a new kind of nazi

08:08 bagiraX; we've seen all this before

08:08 bagiraX; and you were taught better

08:08 DaemonFC; There's no way to improve radical Islamists.

08:08 DaemonFC; They're a disease.

08:08 bagiraX; they're not radical islamists

08:08 DaemonFC; You rip out the disease by the roots.

08:08 DaemonFC; Or else it will spread like a cancer.

08:09 bagiraX; thats the monster you're pasting over the picture to make it easier to watch them die

08:09 DaemonFC; I frankly don't give a damn what happens to them.

08:09 DaemonFC; They've earned it.

08:09 DaemonFC; It's been a long time coming.

08:09 bagiraX; you can't advocate the systematic murder of children and believe you have a moral position

08:09 DaemonFC; And there's nothing bad enough that can happen to them, which will realistically happen.

08:10 DaemonFC; The bombs they drop are too small.

08:10 DaemonFC; Several MOABs would be more efficient.

08:10 bagiraX; but relax, people won't see you in the same light you view a retired SS officer for like 50 years

08:10 DaemonFC; And since they aren't nuclear, the area could be reclaimed later.

08:11 DaemonFC; No damage to the human population.

08:13 bagiraX; this is why i think elections should be restricted to land owners

08:13 bagiraX; the poor just are too vulnerable to propaganda to have valuable opinions

08:13 DaemonFC; They shouldn't be dropping food.

08:13 DaemonFC; They should be dropping MOABs.

08:14 DaemonFC; If they dropped them closer to the shoreline, there would be minimal if any impact outside of Gaza.

08:14 DaemonFC; I doubt there'd be any shattered windows in the closest Israeli area.

08:15 DaemonFC; 3.7 to 7.5 miles wide. MOAB has a blast radius of a mile in each direction.

08:16 DaemonFC; How far does the pressure wave travel?

08:16 DaemonFC; :)

08:31 DaemonFC; [02:13] <bagiraX> this is why i think elections should be restricted to land owners

08:31 DaemonFC; [02:13] <bagiraX> the poor just are too vulnerable to propaganda to have valuable opinions

08:31 DaemonFC; So you mainly want to take the right to vote away from black people and single women?

08:37 bagiraX; no just the ones that advocate genocide when the right people tell them to on the TV

08:38 bagiraX; they're about as morally convicted as the participants in the narc-on-your-neighbors program in WWII germany

08:38 bagiraX; people who own land tend to be more resistant to those types of influences

08:39 bagiraX; just pull the lever in the potato chip factor and fill the bag

09:39 DaemonFC; The only time I recently went to the government about anyone was my landlord, anonymously.

09:39 DaemonFC; About leaving the garbage and abandoned furniture and cars in our lot.

09:40 DaemonFC; It's getting to where you can't even take the trash out without something jumping out at you.

09:42 DaemonFC; The war in Gaza is not a genocide.

09:42 DaemonFC; And it's definitely not something any privileged suburban hot tubbers that got to go to college should give a fuck about.

09:46 DaemonFC; College kids are the dumbest fucking people on the planet, for the most part.

09:46 DaemonFC; Most of them took on enormous debt for diploma mill quality "degrees".

09:46 DaemonFC; So they can look smart and add letters to their name.

09:47 DaemonFC; Their lives are so dull that they have nothing interesting about their lives.

09:47 DaemonFC; They don't even know where Gaza is, much less anything about who lives there.

09:47 DaemonFC; If the fake leftist media or even late night comedians, interviewed them, it would be even worse than the "Trump voters" they stick a camera in front of.

09:48 DaemonFC; The only ones protesting who know anything about Islam are probably the sand monkeys who made it to America.

09:52 DaemonFC; College campuses have always been a hotbed of Communist and un-American activities. And many of the "professors" have been holocaust deniers for years.

09:53 DaemonFC; They harass and oppress students who have a more conservative worldview.

09:53 DaemonFC; Because the left likes to censor other people out of existence.

09:54 DaemonFC; It's the same thing that's going on in Mastodon.

23:31 DaemonFC; schestowitz: The neighbor showed me a text from the landlord from last week.

23:31 DaemonFC; He said "We need to get another building stabilized. We will get the situation there sorted out from Thursday onward."

23:32 DaemonFC; Apparently, he's evicted three apartments and he's given someone else a 5 day cure or quit.

23:32 DaemonFC; So we're past 10% at this point that I know of.

23:35 bagiraX; i thought that was just a rumor your evicted meth-head neighbor was starting after not paying their rent for 8 months and getting evicted

23:38 arkanian; bagiraX: he is that neighbor

23:39 DaemonFC; I'm the only one in the building other than the old lady next door who isn't on drugs.

23:39 DaemonFC; I told her that the feds should come in and burn down the marijuana dispensaries and zip tie the people who own and run them and haul them away.

23:40 bagiraX; arkanian: i kind of got that impression when he started advocating the military targeting of non-combatant children the other night

23:40 DaemonFC; It's still a federal crime.

23:40 DaemonFC; So you have, basically, open lawbreaking, and it's allowed because the state is a narcotics pimp now for tax money.

23:41 DaemonFC; I wouldn't mind it except that the typical marijuana user is not nearly as civilized and courteous as I am.

23:41 DaemonFC; They could at least go outside with it so not everyone's apartment has to have their drug fumes.

23:41 DaemonFC; And not drive cars with children in them while welfare mamma is smoking the reefer.

23:42 DaemonFC; The state is outsourcing societal rot because it is being paid to look the other way.

23:43 DaemonFC; It's like all the lives ruined and wasted and destroyed by alcohol, tobacco, and gambling.

23:44 DaemonFC; They should just give them a place and declare that it's no longer part of the United States and build a wall around it and go full on Escape From New York.

23:44 bagiraX; they should do that with chicago

23:45 bagiraX; half the batman villains are based on chicago politicians

23:45 DaemonFC; Everyone else in Illinois wants rid of Chicago.

23:45 DaemonFC; It's a fairly conservative state outside of one city.

23:46 DaemonFC; Chicago politicians delight in tormenting everyone who lives outside the city with liberal garbage and nonsense.

23:48 TR Bot; NO TITLE

23:48 DaemonFC; ""Could not pour directly into tank, made a mess. This product does have a good rep though, would use again.""

23:49 DaemonFC; LOL

23:49 DaemonFC; That's why you get a funnel and stick the funnel down the fuel filler neck and then pour the bottle's contents down the funnel.

23:51 DaemonFC; Another guy said he poured it all over the side of his truck.

23:52 DaemonFC; Nice that he can afford a truck and can't figure out that funnels cost 99 cents.

23:52 DaemonFC; Probably on his way to the weed dispensary.

23:52 DaemonFC; He took a picture with the puddle all over the ground.

23:52 MinceR; https://ircz.de/p/24042451

23:52 TR Bot; WHOOPSIE

23:52 DaemonFC; I suppose not realizing that spilling this on the ground and driving off is a crime.

23:53 DaemonFC; This is why you have to stay near the gas pump. If your tank overflows and the handle doesn't shut off for some reason, you're responsible for spills.

23:53 DaemonFC; If you go inside to get a candy bar and in the mean time, you're pumping 50 gallons of gasoline all over the ground there's going to be an investigation.

23:55 DaemonFC; I've had poorly maintained pumps spray me with gasoline before. I was not happy.

23:55 DaemonFC; I went inside and cussed out the manager and washed myself off in their bathroom.

23:55 DaemonFC; Then reported their station to the state EPA.

23:56 bagiraX; did you throw away your pipe before the EPA interviewed you

23:57 DaemonFC; The EPA investigated the station and ordered them to fix that pump.

23:57 bagiraX; ok but what about the pipe

23:57 DaemonFC; The gas station contacted me and apologized and gave me a $100 gas gift card.

23:58 DaemonFC; That's the great thing about bipolar mania. You don't need any stimulants.

23:58 bagiraX; thats what the world needs more reporting of, is people whose opinions are bought by companies sharing those opinions after somebody pisses off all the people who buy opinions from politicians

23:59 MinceR; wah wah, someone said something bad about melon

23:59 bagiraX; im lukewarm on him

23:59 bagiraX; im not big on politicans and famous peoples' opinions though
