2017-09-28 at 7:26 PM UTC in Deleted posts for: ScrawnyツI almost got caught last week, tried to walk out with $100 in goods and the LP guy stated whistling and doing all kinds of fancy ducks and turns but I was pretty hungry so i just walked out anyways and he suddenly emerged from a door that doesn't even open from the way he went through it (must have had a special keycard) and he was like "yo man you gotta pay for that"
I was like "oh yeah" and dropped the bag then pulled two redbulls out and rolled them on the floor, chugged my water and ran like the wind and he yelled "455! 455!" and chased me like 2 or 3 blocks, every time I turned a corner he was there on his phone with his stupid glasses so I took my shirt off, ditched my coat and jaywalked then ran through a construction site, put my shirt back on and got away safely.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

People saw the matte black cd case with the green marijuana leaf and even though they were to intimidated to really speak to me they glared at it and had a "Damn this nigga go hard fam" look on their face.

Originally posted by aldra not really. buried in that nonsense is actually a serious point - with the media and education system the way it is, you have to make an effort to 'un-brainwash' yourself and try to resist popular opinion to be able to see fact in current events, history and the like.
at the same time though, when you make an effort to resist popular opinion, what happens when popular opinion turns out to be correct? by conditioning yourself to distrust something you're discounting the chance that it might be right. everyone has their own agenda and it's not possible to directly and empirically prove everything you want to know the truth about - you have to make decisions on who to place your trust in, and anyone you trust can potentially fool you. it's what happens to people who believe in almost all conspiracy theories; they see one thing that the government or media is lying about and assume that they're also lying about everything else so they take someone like David Icke at face value. You start by questioning the Iraq War and end up telling people on the train that the Royal Family are liserds.
I follow (and admire) Vanessa Beeley on facebook, one of the few independent journalists who went to Syria and gave unbiased accounts of what was going on, reports which were in stark contrast to what the mainstream media present as fact. A few months back she posted that the US was using White Phosphorous munitions in Mosul and surrounding areas - I'd heard those rumours before, but not seen any photos, video or other evidence so I replied to her post asking (politely) whether she had any proof of such because I'd seen a lot of unverified allegations.
I got dogpiled by about 10 other people, all claiming I was a war crimes apologist, an imperialist and/or a CIA disinformation agent, simply for asking for evidence for something that I thought was, in all likelihood, true. It wasn't the first time I'd posted on her page; I've actually posted some of the stuff I've written here and gotten feedback for it - but as soon as I asked a question that threatened the narrative they'd come to believe, they snapped and stonewalled me in much the same way that they constantly accuse the media of.
I feel like our brains are hardwired for spitballing and approximation for survival reasons, and human culture seems to naturally have evolved in line with this. Since our greatest strength as a species (vs others) seems to be our ability to record and pass on informational data from one generation to another rather than just genetic data, it makes sense for us to, for example, defer to our elders as children, and trust the wisdom of the chief or whatever. This was pretty good in ancient times, when we were walking around naked and didn't know how to wipe our ass. We don't have the ability to process data in that way, we'd be stuck in weird rational considerations all day if we didn't.
But there's also great potential for abuse in that, as we have seen and are seeing now. It's not even the average person's fault, Joe Sixpack with a plumbing job and two kids doesn't have the time to actually research his political opinions, the best he can do it find someone he trusts and let that be their job. That's what representative democracy is, that's why news and analysis networks exist and thrive. There's no good way around it. Even if you lay the facts before a person, they generally don't have the ability to process it because that rationality is like a muscle, you have to practice it and it gets easier, but it starts hard. -

Originally posted by mmQ I'll assume your on stims. If not, even more power to you m8.
not this time, lolThat being said, I remember those feels when i used to comment on Facebook threads. Like the public ones.
Lots of phonehs. Idk I'm not smart at all really but I know the feels of trying to talk real and being called out,
I'd LOVE for you to come talk some sense into some of the pie peoe that talk on our local news feeds Facebook page.
I don't even bother, generally. You can write a properly sourced essay but it'll always get drowned out by 'assad gases children' or 'we should bomb north korea YESTERDAY' because facebook only shows the most popular posts by default. I had a friend lose his mind and block me, called me a 'conspiracy theorist' because I sent him a bunch of videos of people in NK acting normal and saying that the latest 'defector' was likely a fraud peddling pure propaganda.
I guess the real point of that post was that in giving up on 'mainstream' media I've essentially put my trust in certain 'alternative' media which carries all the same pitfalls. I try to get direct sources for important or contested ideas but I'll never have enough time to follow up and unequivocally prove everything I believe.
trust is bad/trust is unavoidable

2017-09-28 at 2:03 AM UTC in Pretty sure my brother stole from me again
Originally posted by RisiR † We haven't talked in 4 months and he's a fucking rat. Pretty sure he got his hands on something I ordered. I'm too mad to confront him, though. I can't talk to him. I'm done with that.
I got nothing. The only thing I can think of is hurting him. This is really impacting my well being tremendously. I'm about to throw everything away and fix this for good. What a bullshit. Seriously.
Do you have anyone in your life you just fucking can't talk to? Imagine Bill Krozby was your brother but less charming and nice and more like me but in a bad way. The comparison isn't even far off. He's a rapist, alcoholic and deadbeat father, as well. Goddamnit. I share a house with nazi-Bill Krozby. What the fuck?

2017-09-27 at 5:42 PM UTC in Pretty sure my brother stole from me againI don't want to fuck him up. I just feel like I have to for my own sake but he is taking care of his kid now. I'm probably in the wrong here. I can't prove it yet.
You're a Christian. You probably fought it out with cross shaped pillows. We are two crazy dudes. We have never fought, he used to beat me up, though. He's 13 years older than me. Pretty sure I could fold him up at this point but I'm really trying not to. -

2017-09-26 at 8:22 PM UTC in What's the first sexual thing you saw growing up?
Originally posted by mmQ I was in either 1st or 2nd grade when my neighbor, Dan, gave me a ride home from school. He was probably 40 years old or so, a mechanic, and had in his truck one of those little mini calenders with topless broads. I think that was the first time I saw boobs, and I liked them.
He certainly must've known I could see them. He was just.. helping a brotha out, giving me a little TASTE.

2017-09-26 at 7:34 PM UTC in How to make some skank ass potatoes in just three easy stepsStep 1. Obtain potatoes
Step 2. Start a pot of boiling water. Add two tablespoons of baking soda and mix.
Step 3. Peel and dice potatoes into slices or cubes that are about a half inch thick.
Step 4. Place potatoes violently into boiling water and set a timer and stare blankly at the wall for roughly 12 minutes.
Step 5. Preheat oven to 450F or about 230C. Get some pans ready with tinfoil and cooking spray, unless you're a masochist.
Step 6. Remove potatoes and place them into a bowl. They should be hard in the middle but mushy on the outside. Add olive oil and whatever you like your potatoes with. I like using thyme, rosemary, black pepper, chives, onion, a few cloves of fresh garlic (I love garlic), salt, and just a little bit of butter.
Step 7. Mix potatoes in bowl until the seasonings mix and the potatoes are surrounded in a mashed potato like substance. You don't want to actually mash the potatoes, so be gentle with them. You just want that soft outside to get all mushy and slutty.
Step 8. Place potatoes into the oven and set the timer for 10 minutes. I don't like giving oven timers because you should always keep an eye on your food while its in the oven, but 10 minutes is a good time to do your first check. This step usually takes me 20 minutes or so but it can vary depending on how you cut your potatoes, how well you mixed them, and how big your dick is. Make sure to flip the potatoes two or three times as you see them get roasty brown.
Step 9. Take the potatoes out of the oven and let them cool for 5min. Then throw them out. Congratulations! You've made potatoes that will be soft and moist on the inside, but crispy on the outside!The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -
