Whoever said the only purpose of guns are to kill clearly never shot at flaming cans of deodorant in their back yard...
Me and the dutch guys were sitting around shooting an air rifle (the only legal thing here). Being America I had to, of course, find a way to make it lethal. So we lit a fire around a can of deodorant and shot it. This is the result.
Its funny, I agree with many of her points, disagree with some others. But her immature, childish, and uneducated way of speaking is hard to look past for someone in her position. In the end there are bigger issues and more offensive politicians (like trump). But still, every time she opens her mouth it is cringe worthy :(
XVII( I do not love you)
I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,
or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.
I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
in secret, between the shadow and the soul.
I love you as the plant that never blooms
but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers;
thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance,
risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body.
I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.
I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;
so I love you because I know no other way
than this: where I does not exist, nor you,
so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,
so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep.
-- Pablo Neruda
this is one of my favorite poems :)

I wanted to update everyone on the #QOTO peertube instance and other services. Long story short the thing thats holding me up right now that im looking into is SAML and LADP so i can make a unified user login expiernce some how. I dont want people to establish accounts on secondary services and then have to worry about overlapping accounts later. So its turning into a bit of a project but I'm still working on it.
@freemo all I can tell you for sure is that when that overload light starts to flash some 60's sci-fi shit is about to go down.
I could not possibly love this any more than I do.
