Don't you know? Any and every high-profile celebrity death was obviously perpetrated by the Illuminati.

That's actually a task that you do when you're learning basic jewelry making and small scale metalworking. When I learned it it was with pennies but even so, you have no idea how hard cutting a coin that way is until you actually sit down and do it.

It always confuses me when people get angry at the illuminati. From wikipedia:

quote:

Historically, the name refers to the Bavarian Illuminati, an Enlightenment-era secret society founded on May 1, 1776. The society's goals were to oppose superstition, prejudice, religious influence over public life and abuses of state power, and to support women's education and gender equality.

Who is so hard up for attention/stress/something to do that they just make poo poo up to force themselves into a category so they can "be oppressed"? I thought being oppressed was supposed to suck :confused:

The objective is to force sympathy out of friends, acquaintances, and readers of the Tumblr blog it gets posted on, thus focusing all of the attention on themselves. It's a pretty lovely thing to do when you come to think of it.

Just saw this wonderful post on how to become depressed:


Alternatively if you are actively searching for ways to be insufferable and mentally ill, you should probably just kill yourself.

I don't quite get the music part. For me, music can be emotional but no music actually makes me feel sad. I either enjoy it, am indifferent or dislike it.

I think it's more common than not to have a few songs that can make you feel sad, usually drawing from some association with the song. Sad or melancholy music can often be therapeutic for people with depression, though.

Dude, ix-nay on the oice-vay.

They didn't repost fast enough and lost their apostrophe and "E"


My mom hasn't shared that one, but she shares those kinds of posts every now and then. Oh, and also sends me stupid chain emails. I guess she thinks it's fun?

Tony Phillips posted:

But they gained an extra 'o' in lose. Fair trade.

They only got an 'o' in trade. Probably got it back for eventually sharing it, but the gods of chain mails weren't pleased enough to give them another punctuation mark to replace the lost apostrophe.

That's pretty much the reason the illuminati is such a boogyman to conspiracy theorists (especially on the right). Given time, I could easily make their goals into academic elitism, anti-(cultural identity), abolishment of religious belief, denial of national sovereignty, and destruction of the natural family structure.

Why do I always want to sock it to you so hard?
Flickr has always been a big supporter of Pride day/week/month. This weekend they've decided to test out a new feature - anyone who uses the tag "Pride" on a photo will be auto-added to their official Pride group, along with the photo (they have employees to go through and make sure the photos are relevant, since there is the occasional chance that a photo might not be LGBT related). A Flickr message and e-mail are sent, and anyone added can of course take a second to remove themselves. I personally think it's a really cool idea, given the number of people celebrating it and wanting to share their photos.

Of course, there's always a few who have to get pissed about things.



Of the 564 members and 4700 photos that have been added since the group's creation on the 20th, 3 have complained, with one of those making a quick comment and then vanishing. Pretty sure a success rate of 99.468% is pretty good.

I'm pretty sure if eating more tuna/chicken/turkey (quick googling says they're high in Niacin) cured depression people would have figured it out by now. I'm pretty sure suicide rates would drop after holidays and someone would notice that.

When my depression was at its worst before I was diagnosed and treated(with, shock and horror, anti-depressants!), I would often go a day or longer without eating because I couldn't stir up the energy/will to even make a sandwich or something. Sometimes I even went entire weekends without eating. Needless to say "Eat more X" would not have been a helpful solution.

EDIT: Also, I loving love chicken and turkey, so double bullshit on their "cure".

I think if something as ubiquitous as freaking chicken cured depression then we'd have noticed that only vegetarians are ever depressed.
