I've been needing to cry all day, thank you.

Zoom out far enough and it'll be as if none of us ever were.
I don't think that's a sad thing, at least it needn't be. It's just a thing that is.

You know how Lillikoi and I are in a long distance “relationship” type thing? Well, I am making plans to visit them in person over Christmas break! :bounce:

I am rather nervous yet excited about it but from what I understand that’s pretty normal given the situation. The current plan is that I will go there on December 27th and go home on January 3rd. Apparently Lillikoi has never played with Legos or used a telescope so to fix that I am bringing my Lego bin and telescope. I might also bring a model rocket to launch at the moment of the new year.

Air travel. It’s far enough that it’s the cheapest option.

Can I rob a liquor with a screw driver? (I am little low on weapons okay)

Can I buy Marijuana today?

And finally, can I pirate my old GameCube games?

The following questions are straight legit bruh, trust me :-)

There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another, and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known.


Though I do believe, when faced with their grand insignificance, mankind is more inclined to drown it out with yet louder screams of their own self importance.

In fact I think that's what this all has been about, all of it.
They all must know, must realise how empty and pointless their lives are.

Lillikoi says that they will be at their mom's house at the time which is rather large, so I'm sure there will be some couches I could sleep on.

I don't care what sexuality someone is.

gay or straight, it's their bag and more power to them.

People who have a problem with another person and their sexuality are not worth your time.

unfair and unreasonable stigma causes folks who need help not to seek it lest they be labeled axe murderers, employers to prefer hiring convicted felons over folks with mental illness, and your neighbor who brought you a casserole when your son had cancer to back slowly away when your son has mental illness.

stigma killed my dad. he chose to not get diagnosed and treated for the voices he heard, instead using alcohol, which killed him. stigma kept me unemployed (though qualified) from 1995 to 2008.

although I did tell someone I'd rather kill a cat than look after it the other day, so I'm not doing the odd=violent thing any favours.

I wouldn't, btw. I just wanted him to leave me alone.

Where did Rik go, I hope I didn't scare him off.

Ah well, I shall remain here in the echo chamber.

Next person to post, I'll marry them so they have to stay with me.
