@meinemeinung ich seh das erste mal nen bild von dem, da kommt die depression ja aus den augen gefallen.
@Sophistifunk @seungjin vietnamese food is too rare here in my neck of the woods :(
@Suiseiseki yes. it's totally nuts. southern euros drink wine by the gallon and seem to be pretty healthy regardless of it. it's the mrna. i've seen so many bullshit things in the last months which are blamed for cancer now, but mouthwash is #1.
The strategy is this: move my pinky finger.
That's literally it. I know lots of more advanced strategies around "getting started is harder than getting going" but they often require multiple steps and a bunch of thinking, which just feels overwhelming and impossible. So I pretend that "twitch my pinky finger" is step 1 on that list, and I just do it, with no particular thought to step two.
It obviously doesn't *always* work, but the hit rate is shockingly high.
@icedquinn RIP is a perfectly adequate response to any bad news.
@scathach style!
When you realize being reluctant to support the war machine is worse than committing war crimes.

>> “Pacifism is objectively pro-Fascist. This is elementary common sense. …”
nicely shortened quotation. let's see a bit more context.
> Pacifism is objectively pro-Fascist. This is elementary common sense. If you hamper the war effort of one side you automatically help that of the other. Nor is there any real way of remaining outside such a war as the present one.
so you see a truce as a way to "help one side" instead of a way to not have more people die.
what an utterly rotten thought.
but let's continue with the article you linked (written in 1942!):
> As an ex-Indian civil servant, it always makes me shout with laughter to hear, for instance, Gandhi named as an example of the success of non-violence. As long as twenty years ago it was cynically admitted in Anglo-Indian circles that Gandhi was very useful to the British government. So he will be to the Japanese if they get there. Despotic governments can stand ‘moral force’ till the cows come home; what they fear is physical force.
another warmonger, shouting with emotionless laughter about those who still have a soul.
india was independent in 1947.
@aighead as teen i once was cycling at night, looked to the side and saw the faint image of an owl gliding along, without making a noise. that was very cool :)
Oh yeah! I finally got an owl! I've lived here for 8 years, in the middle of nowhere. I hear owls constantly but haven't seen one. The smoking hot wife asks if I want to go for a walk, I say no, then yes.
This bard (?) owl was sitting in the tree watching us. It passed on a rabbit, but watched me, from about 20 feet away.
I am not an American, I do not like Trump particularly much for anything other than a performing monkey.
But this one pic of trump; standing strong, absolutely defiant, fist aloft. The secret service clinging to him as if he were a rock in a raging sea. Behind him is the sky; limitless & all ecompassing. The american flag waves above him, almost appearing to float in the air, held aloft by his will, and upraised fist. Spared only by a brief turn of his head.
That is what Divine Mandate looks like. This image is what it would look like to see Aurelian crowned Restitutor Orbis. This is a moment of sublime, transcendent beauty, captured forever in a lens.
What a wonderful, tantalizing image. It reaches into the soul, whispers in its’ ear ‘This could be your nation, too.’
The United States of America is the only extant nation that could ever lay claim to be the Inheritor of Rome. What delightful political drama.
state licensed lolbert and hypernatalist with a breeding kink. never watched rick & morty and i'm proud of it.
don't only rely on my words, read what happy customers wrote about me: "10/10 would buy again", "top seller, great value", "wildly incorrect", "teil des problems", "without imagination", "Repeated provocation using copy/paste.", "if you take a dump in my mentions, I just might notice the smell", "log out and never login again", "Du redest wirr.", "My brother in Christ, this is such a ridiculously dumb statement that I will no longer entertain this silly conversation.", "Auf Derailing-Diskussionen habe ich keine Lust. Finger über dem Blocken-Knopf.", "Wie gesagt, du kannst der Diskussion inhaltlich nicht folgen.", "oh ein putinscher dampfplauderer *plonk*"
