   That video by the way if that guy talking about the what the DOJ wants is true is fucking justice, except for beastiality because animals can't consent never, while a 14yo who knows what sex is and knows the consequences perfectly can.

   
   They can't consent to being killed for food either, yet presumably you don't see anything wrong with that?

   @Lanny, No such thing as free market capitalism in the states it's all crony capitalism there which is like the exact opposite of my kind of capitalism which would be of the anarcho/austrian kind.

   
   See, this is funny because that argument usually happens in reverse, the left argues that states like the USSR or China at various phases weren't/aren't really socialistic and the right cries no true scottsman. And it's actually a good point, you have a functionally unfalsifiable model if every time it goes wrong you can play it off as a deformed worker state or crony capitalism.

   All my relationships are a bit like java anonymous classes, they seem like a good idea at first but I can never seem to get any closure.

   Hey, I turned 21 not long ago. Any cheap liquor suggestions? Admiral nelsons spiced rum is not a very good liquor but it's got me pretty good.

   
   Old Crow and Evan Williams are both dirt cheap bourbons that are pretty good. If you just want to drink it neat or on the rocks Old Crow has better flavor IMO, but Evan Williams mixes better. Gin and tonic is a tasty as fuck summer drink, there are a few good bottom-shelf gins, my favorite being Gordon's. Cheapest drunk around are cheap red wines, although charles shaw is the only budget red I'd drink (but it's stupidly good relative to other wines at the same price point).

   Ye, there have been small DDoS attacks on and off since rdfrn closed but cloudflare takes the brunt of it. Hosting is a bit shitty too, no doubt, but the largest part actually seems to be vB's retarded "cache management" strategy for css that ends up actually being "fuck your cache, you'll reload the css every time like it or not" on top of the fact that the css is actually dynamically generated every time instead of served off the HD like it should be.
   
   I'll get around to fixing it one day, maybe.

   yes, come to our capitalistic paradise and see how the free market has transformed the US into a utopia where no one wants for anything and you can't turn around without innovation thrusting it's strong independent and individualistic dick up your ass and making sweet sweet non-aggressive mutually agreed love to you.

   P.S. I actually have some experience with medical imaging and no offense but refusing an ultrasound based on "but it was made in the 90s!"(not actually true) is dumb. There are some gnarly imaging techniques in the world (CT scans, while being one of the most informative techniques for non-cranial medical imaging, represent a very heavy dose of radiation relative to what we would otherwise be exposed to in a year) but ultrasounds isn't one of them. The images it produces are comparatively quite poor in quality because they're so low-energy, but that's why we use them for examining infants. Very smart people have spent a lot of time considering imaging protocols based on a lot of evidence, you take a lot more risk in denying your doctor information about potentially life threatening conditions than you do from exposing your child to ultrasounds.

    I'm split between actually wanting to know the effects of nootropics in children vs the obvious ethical issue of a lay-person giving drugs with no history of use in children to their infant. In the end though I don't think we can justify it. I mean I'm happy to sacrifice some children for the advancement of scientific knowledge, especially since intelligence enhancement could reasonably be far more effective in the post-natal period and we stand to benefit greatly, as a society, from more information there. But ultimately an untrained mother giving doses of a schmorgesborg of chemicals based on... I don't even know what you'd base doses on, to a single infant (who we also know was exposed to at least two other drugs in the womb (not saying it was or wasn't harmful, but it would cast doubt on any results you might observe)) doesn't really serve any purpose. Even if you observed an amazing outcome, it wouldn't justify an actual rigorous study of whatever you ended up using by a medical institution in whose results we could have any meaningful level of faith. And the risk is obvious, the brain chemistry of infants is significantly different from that of adults, what's good for the goose is not always good for the gander (and adults taking nootropics are often rolling the dice themselves in the cases of drugs with little to no clinical history).

    That's kind of depressing, like a cross between a hipster and an old man (or a path through time connecting them), but my life is bleak so I'm not one to talk.

    
    What's wrong with thrift shopping? It's fun, I score some cool stuff out of it, it's a cheap date. It's not like it's my only hobby, there's just a pleasant ritual about it, walking to the couple of stores near me in the late morning sunlights, rummaging through old junk not expecting to find anything but being thrilled when I do, laughing at the goofy clothes or weird nick-nacks someone once actually paid money for. Shit be quaint as fuck nigga

    The singular reason anyone should consider giving Trump their vote is for the comedy of seeing him scream "YOURE FIRED" at his staff and politicians while his toupee falls off. Also his daughter is kinda hot and you'd get to see her ass on TV more often.
    
    This, however, does not justify making a glorified real estate agent the president in order to fuck the poor for the benefit of an (ironically) idealistic vision of america that will never come about and never existed to start with.

    You seem to have a tendency to be reckless and overdose, so try not to kill yourself. Repeatedly G'ing out, particularly in public/around people would be more amusing than you dying (yet). And what about growing shrooms with the PF tek (If you can't get a cheap pressure cooker (thrift stores may have them))? It's like a right of passage.

    
    I've never heard of this before but I was just recently thinking of looking into growing mushrooms so that's a happy coincidence. Thrift-store shopping is one of my favorite sunday late-morning/afternoon activities and I always see pressure cookers there. This could be some good shit. I seem to remember spores to start being sold in the open, are they not illegal to distribute?

    lol, freaky shit.
    
    I want to believe but if I were a betting man I'd say your sister was just fucking with you. Like with a google voice number she could have called you via the web interface without having her phone with her. Even if she doesn't have one there are probably services that can do that same thing. And that's def a good way to freak a nigga out lol.
