I love the personal schad

Ok.

This morning I was woken up an hour before my alarm by the yowling of one of my cats. So I got up to see what his deal was and it turns out he had bad gas. Fart, fart, fart, fart. I tried to go back to bed and he yowled again, so I just had to sit on the bathroom floor with him while he farted and comfort him.

:nms:Some of the farts were wet and spluttery. Some of the fluid got on my arm.:nms: Somehow it didn't smell like poo poo, though, which is nice I guess, if confusing.

I get how he might feel his life was in danger. In the moment of some crazy person getting all in your face you don't know what they're going to do next.

Anyway, the right thing to do would be public execution of the YouTuber in the town square. :doink:

For what it's worth, I initially thought "yeah there's no way that situation called for deadly force, shooter is guilty" and then I thought about how you really don't know what's going to happen when someone aggressive gets all in your face. I got punched in the face once by a guy that, in retrospect, was probably off his tits on meth and didn't realise I was in a fight until he hit me; I can totally understand someone with more sense/experience than me jumping to "this person means me deadly harm".

And then I tried to crack a bad joke that the correct solution is for the government to execute arsehole prankster streamers so that civilians don't have to, and ate a probe. So, moral of the story is make it much clearer when I'm making a bad joke, I guess?

Anyway, it's fine. Please stop shoving cameras in people's faces and pistols in people's guts. Go in peace.

Yeah. This rear end in a top hat's channel included bangers like peeing in stores, several videos of him stealing poo poo, and him demanding blowjobs from random passersby.
He didn't get shot for talking poo poo on twitter.

Ok, look, I think we're all on the same page here, but just to make sure: the guy's a shitbag harassing people for views. That doesn't actually warrant being killed. His behaviour might make a reasonable person honestly mistake him for a legitimate threat to their life, and so in the moment use of deadly force is not unreasonable. Our delivery driver almost certainly did not identify them on sight, weigh up the karmic balance of the idiot's youtube career, and Judge Dredd decide their fate, nor could or should he have. It looks to me like he thought his life was in danger and acted accordingly.

So. Youtuber is a shitsucker who shouldn't harass people and should probably be punished for that by the law. Shooter shot a guy who in actual fact wasn't a threat, but it is reasonable to believe that under pressure they may have believed he was.

Also dickhead got shot, haha bang schadenfreude, and lived to tell the tale.

I think that about covers it, right? Nobody legitimately thinks he shoulda died, we're all just unsympathetic to him being shot, right?

All Cats Are Beautiful

Cats don't do facial expressions like we do. If you read their faces as if they're humans, you get "cats are the cops of the pet world" and "you came to the wrong neighbourhood, motherfucker".

If you read their body language like they're cats and not humans, their tails are right up and their ears forward. They're happy. If anything they're delighted to see the photographer.

I truly believe that cats can sense how terribly allergic I am to them and seek me out for this reason. They are malicious beings that only wish us harm or subjugation.

It's probably specifically because you're not paying them any attention. Cats get nervous about eye contact and people going right up to them, for people they don't know. Not paying the cat attention and just doing your own thing is actually a fantastic way to let a cat know that you're chill, not a threat, and probably a good person to get scritches from.

It's fine. Oddly, cats are the only animals that I am known to be allergic to, but I am allergic to drat near everything else. Pretty much every tree, grass, mold or pollen; drat near every seasonal allergy, I nearly max out everything on those prick tests (wink). I get weekly shots and take daily meds; I was just not meant to exist in this world apparently.

I use(d) them a lot too. When I can't get stuff there, I use Qobuz. As far as I know they don't pay artists as well as Bandcamp do/did, but one of their stated goals is to be ethical about this, and they certainly pay more than YouTube or Spotify.

I have adhd. Tried a couple meds and they jacked my anxiety through the roof to the point that l was better off dealing with the difficulty with focus and executive dysfunction without.

For what it's worth, this is also my experience. But I think I'm also very sensitive to stimulants, because if I have a proper, cafe-made cup of coffee in the morning there's a good chance I'll get fever dreams when I go to bed.

I'm currently taking 0.25mg dexamphetamine, by dissolving a 5mg tab in 50ml of water and taking 2.5ml. I find it helps. I keep thinking it doesn't make any goddamn sense that such a small dose should do anything and not be placebo, and yet A: I still get dry mouth, and B: every time I exceed that, it just makes me anxious. I keep thinking that it does just sound like such absolute bullshit, so today I took 0.5mg, and not only did it take me the whole day to get anything done but I was really anxious the whole time. :shrug:

But no, it turned out the terror just passed into the real world and I'm terrified of driving cars there, too. And the nightmares continue.

Ha, amateur! If there's one thing I've learned from the shitton of Hitman I've been playing recently it's that you always get caught trying to move the body, and it works out much better to just leave them where they lay.

Then you only get "oh my god, a dead body!" rather than "oh my god, that man is dragging a dead body!"

Beer you just need a guy from a brewery, or really just a random person on your engineering staff with that as a hobby. I can't build a car, even if I had the money to do it. Like, how do bottle tops rust? Was he demanding weird bespoke bottle tops? I've had bottles sitting in a closet for a year or two and the tops weren't rusted.

With all his stuff he has to personally interfere with everything because he's convinced he knows best. You can gently caress up absolutely anything at all under those circumstances.
