It's like some movie or video game, can't think of any examples but I'm sure they exist, where the protagonist mows down dozens of henchmen but suddenly decides that killing the main bad guy would make them just as bad.

My favorite examples of that are always when the Big Bad is some sort of rich guy or politician and their private security team gets slaughtered by the protagonist. Like, those dudes aren't even spies or hitmen or ninjas, they're just guys with cheap suits and one bedroom condos and W-2s. They have boring day jobs where they stand on some dude's lawn with a shotgun for eight hours - sometimes they chat a little with the other guards, but otherwise it's just staring at the same hedges day in and day out.

Then a steroid enthusiast slips behind you and cracks your neck like a twist off beer cap - just another in the trail of dead leading into the compound. The actually monstrous human, though? The one that's been dumping toxic waste in the children's park or selling nukes to terrorists or whatever? Put your hands up bucco, because here in America there are laws and you will face justice.

Just another reason the Hitman series is my favorite, because I can make it my goal to not kill any henchmen - only the main bad guy dies, and in the most humiliating and painful fashion I can conceive of.

Did you grow up in Europe? I know they did poo poo like remove ninja imagery from the ninja turtles and make sure henchmen in other shows bled green over there.

Most old US shows used regular guys or ninjas or soldiers or whatever as fodder for the main characters to beat up.

Nah, even Robot Chicken made fun of this. They had a sketch with COBRA showing off their memorial wall, and the only name on it is someone who got injured in a root canal surgery

But even I question the things I'm shown. Even I say, this just seems too out there.

But in my heart and gut....I know it's true.

I mostly feel guilty. For being so drat ignorant. I mean, how did it get to this point?

I'm past the point of caring what people think of me, but sometimes this stuff just gets to you.

I mean....we're talking about kids. Little kids. I mean when you put your kids to bed at night....and they tell you all about their dreams, and how much they love you and when they laugh...... I mean.....this stuff is just mind boggling.

And the people that do this stuff to kids...can you even imagine what happened to them, when they we're kids. The horror they we're put through, to do that to other kids.

I mean......gently caress.

Yeah, I'm drinking tonight. Because honestly.....it's just too much.

The kids surround me a lot. They show me things. And when they come, they nearly attack me. They want me to know it all. They've shown me things I haven't shared with you guys, because I don't want you to have the pictures I have, in my head. I have notes, I take when they are telling me things, I wouldn't want anyone to read. So yeah.....call me delusional or tell me I'm full of poo poo. I get first hand information from the abused. And I promised them I would help free them and tell their stories.

So I'm drinking tonight. Cheers to a brighter future. And thank you President Trump for giving up everything, for us and our kids. I'm with you 1000 percent. I love you!

Prosecutors say Buckey Wolfe, 26, killed his brother in Seattle on Sunday night by stabbing him in the head with a four-foot long sword.

Wolfe, who prosecutors say exhibited signs of mental illness, called police himself after the murder and claimed he thought his brother was a lizard, according to The Seattle Times. When detectives arrived, he reportedly believed they were also lizards. Wolfe has been charged with second-degree murder.

A Facebook page confirmed to belong to Wolfe by a local Seattle TV station is filled with references to Trump and other conservative figures, as well as the cartoon character Pepe the Frog, who has been embraced by the far-right.

The Facebook page also features a declaration of allegiance to the Proud Boys, the group’s so-called “first degree” of membership.

“I’m a proud Western chauvinist and I refuse to apologize for creating the modern world,” one post from February reads, before referencing the Proud Boys’ slogan. “Uhuru!!!”

quote:

Wolfe referenced “swords” multiple times in his QAnon posts, saying that they would be used to defeat the “Illuminati.”

Wolfe also made several references online to the extreme conspiracy theory that some people are actually lizards in disguise. Prosecutors referenced some of Wolfe’s online postings as proof that he’s mentally ill, according to the Seattle Times.

On his YouTube channel, Wolfe declared that Trump would soon triumph over his enemies in a cataclysmic event QAnon believers call “The Storm.”

“It’s coming, and it’s gonna be good!” Wolfe said. “Y’alls are gonna get your just dues. I will be so happy, you have no idea.”

So I just had a very interesting experience as my meditation ended.

I must have been else where during my meditation. I usually do about an hour meditation practice.

I Just listened to high frequency music. No guided meditation.

Well, at the end of my meditation a voice came through my head phones, loud and clear. It literally jolted me back to reality and made me jump. I've listened to this specific music many times. Never had anything like this happen before.

It clearly said: "there's a trip planned for you, but I can't say where you're going."

And that was it. I checked the music time and it was at exactly the end of the YouTube video. No advertisements, nothing. I even replayed to see if there was an ad, at the end. Nope nothing.

Woooo that was intense and crazy.

Hey, I resent that, particularly because I would NEVER leave a body in the toilet. I'd hide it in a closet before I go. Or feed it to a hippo. Or toss it off a cliff.

But yeah all those dudes probably get executed by the shadow government that employed the big bad guy. Not my problem, I've got a magical homing briefcase that is hungry for more skulls.

Well, every season I saw was like that but in season 1 I remember noticing he spent a lot of time agonising over whether he should kill or not when it came to the confrontation with a leader, but he shot through the guards without a second thought.

Its been a few years since I watched arrow though maybe I'm wrong? I just remember having the thought at the time and this discussion reminded me specifically of that.
