beginning of new day, May 15

00:01 DaemonFC; Yeah. My first ex was on the phone with me about 17 years later.

00:01 DaemonFC; He said that it was a mistake to leave me. It only got worse and worse from there. He did not know what he had, and he was sorry he acted that way.

00:02 DaemonFC; He said the first thing the guy he left me for did to him was get insanely jealous and start breaking all of the gifts I had bought for him.

00:02 DaemonFC; And then when he was finished doing that, he started beating him.

00:04 DaemonFC; I said, "Well, some things have the punishment built right in. I did ask you to stay. I did humiliate myself by begging you to stay and asking what I did wrong. While this other guy stood there and laughed, and then he went to work on you and knocked some teeth out and got himself arrested, so that went well for both of you, I see."

00:05 DaemonFC; He commented that if I had a character flaw, it was that I "was the most Machiavellian person [he had] ever seen in [his] life and [he was] sure that [I had] sharpened my skillset considerably since then."

00:13 schestowitz; sad story

00:13 schestowitz; but familiar

00:13 schestowitz; i have a friend like this

00:13 schestowitz; his partner loathed anything of the ex wife

00:13 schestowitz; even some old photos

00:16 DaemonFC; In other words, the gist of it that I got from him was that he found me to be manipulative, strategically minded, and cunning, deceptive if necessary, but that I honestly tried my best with him and I was incredibly disappointed and hurt by the rejection.

00:16 DaemonFC; I'd say that's a fair assessment.

00:17 DaemonFC; At the time, it hurt me a lot. It was like being stabbed through the chest. It was the most painful thing I've ever felt, worse than physical pain.

00:18 DaemonFC; And nobody has ever hurt me that badly again.

00:20 DaemonFC; schestowitz: Did he beat her, burn the photos, and find any gifts the ex-wife gave him and smash them?

00:20 DaemonFC; *she beat him

00:20 DaemonFC; That next guy sounded like a real piece of work.

00:21 DaemonFC; There's not much left of my first ex. He gained a bunch of weight, started chain smoking, had to have a lot of dental work, had a stroke at 35.

00:21 TR Bot; ODEIA / ALIFIB (R.Wyatt) - Invidious

00:21 DaemonFC; I mean, I don't want to sound arrogant, and I know this will, but he shouldn't have left me. I wouldn't have beaten him, or driven him to smoke and binge eat to deal with all the twisted shit that happened to him.

00:22 DaemonFC; It couldn't last. He did too much to sabotage my good intentions.

00:23 DaemonFC; Nothing good will ever come from loving a person who does not love you back, or loves you "but won't keep their pants up" when you're away, etc.

00:24 DaemonFC; If a person is unfaithful, it says that they have one foot out the door already and you just need to give them a good shove and call it.

00:24 DaemonFC; I will NEVER tolerate this again.

00:25 schestowitz; pedantic point:

00:25 DaemonFC; Lucille Ball had a marriage like this to Desi Arnaz.

00:25 schestowitz; finding a spouse in some "app" is not great either

00:25 schestowitz; i met my wife at some party

00:25 schestowitz; not a night club

00:25 schestowitz; a birthday p[arty

00:25 schestowitz; no "app"

00:25 DaemonFC; The newspapers started writing about his infidelity and she says "Oh hell, I could have told them worse than that."

00:25 schestowitz; no "send my photos"

00:26 schestowitz; you can know a person well after a few hours talking

00:26 schestowitz; screen based on that

00:26 schestowitz; your ex had stroke at 35

00:26 schestowitz; seems like a whole lot to deal witht

00:26 schestowitz; and likely not related to his partner

00:26 schestowitz; just really awful life choices

00:26 DaemonFC; His dad had a bunch of strokes too.

00:26 schestowitz; overeating being one of them

00:27 DaemonFC; When I knew his dad, he didn't have a lot left going on upstairs.

00:27 schestowitz; overeating is very seldddom a genetic or hereditary thing

00:27 DaemonFC; He'd sit at the TV yelling at Fox News and the cats, and shout about "Sand Niggers" every time there was something about Muslims on the TV, it was around 9/11.

00:29 DaemonFC; schestowitz: Yeah, he ended up self-filing for bankruptcy at one point.

00:29 DaemonFC; I read through his petition and it was not as bad as what I had listed.

00:29 DaemonFC; Not nearly.

00:30 DaemonFC; He was incredibly detained on what possessions he had, including his vinyl record collection.

00:30 DaemonFC; He still owed the funeral home a bunch of money for cremating his parents.

00:30 DaemonFC; They died back to back in 2011.

00:31 DaemonFC; The biggest thing on his bankruptcy schedule was a car that he got a loan for from Nicolas Financial, which is apparently a bottom feeder bank that gives out car loans at over 20% interest to people with really bad credit.

00:32 DaemonFC; He told me he strung them along during the bankruptcy and kept driving it for another 11 months by slow walking things and pretending to be interested in buying the car at fair market value. The bank argued it was worth more, but he hadn't told them that he dropped the full coverage on it then hit a deer.

00:33 DaemonFC; He never had the damage fixed but the car still ran. So by the time they were clear to repossess it, it had been a long time. He started parking it over at an abandoned skating rink in Louisville, until it just wasn't there one day.

00:34 DaemonFC; And he was in and out of eviction court with his landlord until the bankruptcy wiped out the debt and the landlord couldn't evict him because he didn't owe the guy any money.

00:34 DaemonFC; They asked if he wanted a new lease. He said he wanted three months to get out and they'd not call it an eviction, and by that point he'd been living there for like 8 months without paying the rent.

00:34 DaemonFC; So lots of bad shit.

00:35 DaemonFC; This stupid car loan was a lot of what caused him to go under I think.

1 AM, May 15

01:20 schestowitz; like antisematt et al calling people rapist

01:20 schestowitz; or rape apologist

01:20 schestowitz; so I'd keep distance from them

01:21 schestowitz; they are looking to move up by slandering those who are already up

01:21 schestowitz; that is then basic modus operandi

01:21 schestowitz; then they even attack women

01:21 schestowitz; like my spouse

01:21 schestowitz; who is not even active in irc

01:21 schestowitz; then they wonder why we call them misoginists

01:21 schestowitz; they cannot even hide it

01:21 schestowitz; they do it so very openly

01:22 schestowitz; and some of the men who attack women

01:22 schestowitz; say that it's ok

01:22 schestowitz; because they too are women

01:22 schestowitz; yes, well, women with the body of a man

01:22 schestowitz; attacking women

01:22 schestowitz; how very dear

01:55 DaemonFC; It's cheaper to shoot at food and fish for it than it is to go buy it.

01:56 DaemonFC; There's no way that people like that let Democrats come in and fill their neighborhood up with pedophiles and murderers who beat "the second wife".

2 AM, May 15

02:00 DaemonFC; schestowitz: Yes, the 1980s and 1990s would be great to have back again, economically.

02:00 DaemonFC; Not the best time to be openly gay.

02:01 DaemonFC; They wouldn't kill you for it, or try to put you in prison.

02:01 DaemonFC; But they don't have to, in order to make things more difficult.

02:01 schestowitz; <DaemonFC> Not the best time to be openly gay.

02:01 schestowitz; nor is now

02:01 schestowitz; depends where

02:01 DaemonFC; People act like they're appalled by how backwards some third world countries are on gay rights.

02:02 DaemonFC; Well, there were like 19 states I think that had laws on the books that said you could go to prison in 2002.

02:02 DaemonFC; Illinois and Indiana removed those laws by the 1970s.

02:03 schestowitz; put in perspective

02:03 DaemonFC; schestowitz: Thankfully I don't have to live in one of "those" states.

02:03 schestowitz; -us iiis about 4% of the world

02:03 schestowitz; -about half in the us dislike gays

02:03 DaemonFC; They find ways to be nasty, without the "laws" that the Supreme Court got rid of.

02:03 DaemonFC; They don't need to put you in prison. They just turn other citizens loose on you and then refuse to punish them.

02:03 schestowitz; -among those who don't dislike them, many merely tolerate them, in public

02:03 schestowitz; europe is about 5% of the world

02:04 DaemonFC; Have the cops pull you over and find an excuse to beat you.

02:04 DaemonFC; Nothing happens to the cops

02:04 schestowitz; so in aboutt 90% of nations' people there are no gay rightsd

02:04 schestowitz; in ther other 10%, some are spoonfed those

02:04 schestowitz; even against their will

02:04 schestowitz; that's where the world stands on gays

02:04 schestowitz; they don't exist in sssome countries

02:04 schestowitz; dead or in hiding

02:04 schestowitz; or in the closet

02:04 DaemonFC; Right most of the world is a fair bit worse about that than the US is.

02:05 DaemonFC; But like, you don't get the same legal protections other people enjoy.

02:05 DaemonFC; If someone attacks you and your wife and the police catch them, they go to jail.

02:05 DaemonFC; If someone attacks me and Mandy, there will be at least one homophobe, maybe more, on the jury.

02:05 DaemonFC; They'll be acquitted and murder someone next time.

02:06 DaemonFC; "jury of your peers"

02:06 DaemonFC; Well, the defendant's peers.

02:06 DaemonFC; If a third of the jury pool doesn't like gay people, this trial is going nowhere.

02:06 DaemonFC; The guy gets cut loose with their blessing to do something worse next time.

02:07 DaemonFC; In the South, it would be even more hopeless.

02:07 DaemonFC; In the early 90s, a Japanese foreign exchange student went with his class to Alabama.

02:07 DaemonFC; He got confused and ended up on someone's property, and they came out waving a gun and told him to get off their land.

02:08 DaemonFC; He had no idea what was going on, and barely spoke any English.

02:08 DaemonFC; The guy shot and killed him.

02:08 schestowitz; anyway, back to tech

02:08 schestowitz; this is very far from tech

02:08 DaemonFC; At first, the prosecutor said they weren't even going to have a trial.

02:08 DaemonFC; Then the Japanese embassy made a big fuss out of it and it became an international incident, and President Clinton leaned on the state to put him on trial, and it did.

02:26 schestowitz; Wed 01:10:43 DaemonFC There is no justice for you.

02:26 schestowitz; Wed 01:11:21 DaemonFC If it wasn't for the Democrat SAFE-T Act, the ex that beat me would have agreed to a plea bargain. He would have been in jail where he belonged waiting on his trial until he confessed to doing it.

02:26 schestowitz; Wed 01:11:44 DaemonFC They passed this law so the pressure would be off of very serious criminal felons so they wouldn't have to admit what they did.

02:26 schestowitz; Wed 01:13:34 DaemonFC Crime victims who have to watch their attacker get cut loose should remember which party to thank for this, the Democrats.

02:26 schestowitz; Wed 01:13:54 DaemonFC " The aggressive discounts have affected global brands.

04:23 DaemonFC; schestowitz: I was around the same age as Michael but he admitted that before he met me, he had a 38 year old teacher pick him up at his house when he was 14.

04:23 DaemonFC; The police got the guy and he went to prison over that.

04:23 DaemonFC; There's always been sick fucks that like kids.

04:23 DaemonFC; They deserve....worse than anything the police can legally do to them about it.

04:24 DaemonFC; That's why body cameras are not always great. Sometimes they're good. But I mean, you know, maybe a pedophile did fall over and break his ankle on the curb by accident while getting in the police car.

04:24 DaemonFC; You know.

04:24 DaemonFC; And maybe you don't want to know how it happened.

04:25 DaemonFC; So sometimes having the police do things by the book is not so good.

04:25 DaemonFC; I think that one of the bad things about body cameras is that less pedophiles and wife beaters will trip on the curb on their way to the cop car.

04:27 DaemonFC; Brandon Lobster was saying "Well how do you know they did it?" the other day before Roy banned him again.

04:28 DaemonFC; Well, I have more confidence in the police when they catch a 38 year old getting a blowjob from a 14 year old boy than what the judges we have nowadays are going to do to the 38 year old teacher.

04:28 DaemonFC; Maybe accidentally tripping on the curb is the only thing that happens to the 38 year old teacher now.

04:28 DaemonFC; Whose name was Peter, btw.

04:29 DaemonFC; Pervy Peter.

04:29 DaemonFC; Who at least liked them older than Peter Bright does (9 and 11).

04:30 DaemonFC; You get these people in front of a judge in Illinois and it'll be the judge that let my ex go after "DV-ing" me.

04:30 eidolon; Most fathers would tear the perv to pieces with their bare hands if given the opportunity.

04:30 DaemonFC; The same judge that tried to allow a foreign Sharia Law court divorce into our state.

04:30 eidolon; Maybe he gets a little too close.

04:30 DaemonFC; Where the guy hopped on a plane to India because he didn't want equitable distribution of property to his wife.

04:31 DaemonFC; And the Appellate Court is the only reason we didn't have this stupid Muslim Divorce ruling given status here.

04:31 DaemonFC; [22:30] <eidolon> Most fathers would tear the perv to pieces with their bare hands if given the opportunity.

04:31 DaemonFC; Michael's dad was already retirement age back THEN and had had several strokes.

04:32 DaemonFC; Didn't have a lot left going on. At least his mother, as messed up as she was, called the cops on Pervy Peter.

04:32 DaemonFC; I know Michael and yes, Michael probably enjoyed whatever he did in Pervy Peter's truck.

04:33 DaemonFC; But Pervy Peter would have gone one to victimize someone that wasn't already as sexually deviate as Michael was.

04:33 DaemonFC; Besides, a man who is 38 years old should know to stay away from kids even if they do say they wanted it.

04:34 DaemonFC; In the last 20 years I've had a couple of unwanted advances and I got the hell out of the room as fast as my legs could carry me.

04:34 DaemonFC; Some people who are 14-16 just like hitting on older men. It amuses them, but it will get the adult in a lot of trouble if they go along with it.

04:35 DaemonFC; So don't. Just get out of there, and better yet, don't be alone in a room with them.

04:38 DaemonFC; I have been aware of other people in an inappropriate relationship and didn't say anything about it because I didn't feel like it was my business. But it was not like "total disgust", like "Peter Bright on top of a 9 year old" shit.

04:38 DaemonFC; I would have beaten the piss out of that guy myself.

04:39 DaemonFC; There was a guy I worked with who was "in a relationship with a 15 year old" and he was in his mid 20s at the time.

04:40 DaemonFC; I was like "This guy is weird but it also doesn't sound like some Chris Hanson shit."

04:40 DaemonFC; It was like "Okay, so she's old enough that in another month they could theoretically get married."

04:41 DaemonFC; "Do I really want to fuck up this guy's life? He hasn't made me angry at him, although I don't know why you'd brag about this at work."

04:41 DaemonFC; In my great-grandmother's era, this was not uncommon at all.

04:41 DaemonFC; She was married and had her first child at 15.

04:42 DaemonFC; The world was just different back then. You didn't end up with some old old old old guy (maybe even a Muslim) and 12 year old "brides".

04:42 DaemonFC; My great-grandfather was 21 when he married her.

04:42 DaemonFC; Then in my mom and dad's case, they got married when she was 17. He was 22.

04:43 DaemonFC; My grandparents didn't think this was pervy. They went down and signed the papers.

04:43 DaemonFC; How society views these relationships has definitely changed.

04:43 DaemonFC; And without at least two of them in the past three generations, I wouldn't even exist.

04:44 DaemonFC; So we've "evolved" into this society where if you do the same stuff that people did all the time clear into the 1970s and 80s, you're a criminal.

04:44 DaemonFC; I think we should really save the worst consequences for people like Peter Bright.

04:45 DaemonFC; But when you go and do something like what he did, the punishment should be a public execution.

04:45 DaemonFC; They need to just hang people like that in public as a warning to the others.

04:46 DaemonFC; Anyway, change of subject....

05:27 DaemonFC; They have said that when they believe we're going into a horrible recession, they hit a stop loss that reduces your spending limits to amount owed, or cuts them back 30-50%.

05:27 DaemonFC; People are usually surprised to notice that credit lines can go way down.

06:56 DaemonFC; Most Communist countries could barely afford a Mustang if you put the entire GDP of the country to work on it, and then Dear Leader would be driving it when they did.

06:57 DaemonFC; The US sure isn't perfect but there's not many people running around starving to death with tapeworms.

06:58 schestowitz; <p class="dropcap-first">The other week (about a week ago) we saw misleading Microsoft propaganda like <em>"Microsoft to build $3.3B datacenter campus in Wisconsin"</em> (<a href="https://www.theregister.com/2024/05/08/microsoft_datacenter_wisconsin/">don't click unless you must</a>; it is "yet another bribe using, yet again, nonexistent money," according to an associate).

06:58 DaemonFC; When North Korea says all of its citizens will be employed, it doesn't necessarily mean they'll be paid. Most of it gets siphoned off so the Comrades can live high on the hog, and run a nuclear missile program to make sure that nobody invades and changes that, and to put up 150 foot bronze statutes of the last two Kims that get updated regularly.

06:59 DaemonFC; MinceR: ^

7 AM, May 15

07:00 DaemonFC; I saw that they were putting up thousands of obelisks across North Korea and all the villagers who have nothing to eat thanks to Communism are expected to bow and leave a bouquet of flowers to honor the Kims.

07:02 DaemonFC; That black guy from Milwaukee that tried to defect to North Korea, we should have refused to take him back. He thinks America is a "little bit racist". The last thing the North Koreans want is some low level army grunt that doesn't know anything about state secrets and only joined up because there's no college, jobs, or food in the Milwaukee ghettos without the military.

07:02 DaemonFC; And especially not a black one.

07:03 DaemonFC; At various points they've just about TOLERATED white American defectors. They'd stick them in a remote village where nobody could interact with them much and find a wife they're pretty sure can't get pregnant, and that's your life now, but they sure as shit aren't gonna take a black one.

07:04 DaemonFC; But the reason he defected in the first place was to avoid charges for causing a brawl in SOUTH KOREA when he got Stateside. South Korea was not amused, but due to pressure from the American government dropped the local charges.

07:05 DaemonFC; So not only would they have a black one, but they'd have one that can't keep his hands to himself (pretty typical, like my ex), and was violent and not all that smart, and doesn't have any state secrets.
