Not really since Truman would have no concept of what jail was other than what they tell him it is. They could make jail be a 24/7 infomercial that he has to perform and he would believe it because it is literally all he knows.

You’re probably right about the viewership though since a large part of the appeal seemed to be the parasocial relationship with a man who was presented as a decent and relatable guy.

Hi Chris.

I’m generally against waving the flag of another nation at a protest. Nothing wrong with protesting about those issues—your intention about foreign affairs is just usually a lot clearer with a sign instead of a flag.

What would justice look like? I’m genuinely curious. There isn’t a court outside of America that can hold the president accountable, and the other option is war, which would be deadly on a massive scale. It’s insane that impeachment hasn’t happened yet, and unless the legislative branch does something to remove the cancer from the White House, then I don’t see justice being delivered.

This whole situation is a nightmare.

My girlfriend has EDS. It is such a strange disease.

On the one hand, it gives you smooth stretchy skin that is resistant to wrinkles, long features that can be very beautiful, and enhanced flexibility that can be fun in the bedroom.

On the other hand, just laying down can cause her legs to fall out of socket, her back can make noises that sound like stepping on peanuts, and her fingers can get stuck in a Vulcan salute.

Handicapped parking is dope though.

Some delicacies are only conferred on those with a trained palate—it should not conCERN the rabble what delights the wise. /s

You’d be amazed of the things that butt doctors see.

Everyone knows you’re supposed to boof the cocaine and eat the acid. Amateur. /s

Why would Debian be unacceptable?

No man is an island. If you cut yourself off entirely, you are still sacrificing something, it’s just a different something than the things you sacrifice through engagement with capitalism. I choose on a case by case basis.

What was the purpose of all these shenanigans?

Pass the Popcorn or another private tracker. They are archives for old and quality films. Public trackers don’t encourage preservation and seeding in the same way.

Get an FTP program and connect that way. I use the same service that you do, and this is the most convenient and reliable method I know of. The FTP credentials are listed in your account control panel.

Out of curiosity, how do you think things should be done that differs from “normal” people.

I’m someone who has been in therapy for years and seen several different professionals in that journey, and yet I keep getting told that there is nothing fundamentally wrong with me. As someone who is clinically “normal”, I look at people in power and can’t help but see unchecked mental illness everywhere. I don’t think most of those folks would go through the same questioning and come out clear.

As far as the people who vote for them, the last five generations have been exposed to the most advanced and insidious propaganda machines of all time. Each generation gets a little better at seeing it, but then something new comes along and they’re bamboozled again. Put simply, the human brain is not designed to ward off this much manipulation.

This is, indeed, superb.

My ratchet way of doing it is Backblaze. There is a docker container that lets you run the unlimited personal plan on Linux by emulating a windows environment. They let you set an encryption key so that they can’t access your data.

I’m sure there are a lot more professional and secure ways to do it, but my way is cheap, easy, and works.

Yeah…that would be cool but…this country isn’t big on accountability.

And I’m over here taking acid tabs and Da Bomb Beyond Insanity dabs like 🤔

Farmacia Similares! That doctor has some killer dance moves. I’ve been meaning to get one of the bobble heads.
