Random Thoughts...or...What's on Your Mind?

Friends don't let friends listen to QAnon.

But those idiots and their loud voice have power, see how well they have taken over the Republican Party...

I heard about that bunch years ago, went to "their" site and followed "their" shit for awhile, and considered it a bad joke.

Boy... was I wrong, I did not realize at the time how BAD it would become.

I always love how when you don't want something to happen it won't stop happening, but then once you change your mind and want it to happen, it doesn't.

I just can't get the enthusiasm up for any new Marvel movies and feel like the MCU and superhero movies are just too much and too everywhere for my liking.


OH and thank you Amazon now I have wifi to worry about

Yes, there is.

The use of the name 'Karen' as a derogatory really pisses me off, having been married to a marvelous woman named Karen for 29 years. No one seems sensitive about how the use affects the non-bigoted, non-racist Karens of the world.

 

[Gingerbread Demon]

Yeah that bugs me a bit too. Why they fixated on that particular name and didn't change it to something else.

Cut grass again probably got all the corners too

Oh this made my day. Genius taking advantage of stupid people. I was thinking this afternoon I wonder how you could take advantage of people and their fear of wifi and 5G and things like that, and this video popped in my feed.

I'm not sure what's dummer. Thinking you need a faraday cage to protect you from wireless signals, or not realizing you can just buy wire mesh from Home Depot.

And not realizing you just got scammed on a metal paper try with other metal bits attached.

Well, I started using it places like here, because I was afraid afraid some people on the board might be more offended if I used the word I really wanted to use, one that start with a b.

Hopefully, you are rethinking that.

I usually don't think twice about swearing here, but I wasn't sure how people would react to me calling an actual woman I had encountered a.... fuck it.... a bitch.

Calling someone a bitch isn't swearing....

Calling someone a bitch isn't swearing....

Should probably have gone with your first instinct...

Calling someone a bitch isn't swearing....

Perhaps not. (Nor is it against board rules, to be clear.) It is, however, a sexist gendered insult.
