Re: The Rant Thread (v 1.2)
So... Planning vacations has never been fun for me. Vacations to me are a time to relax and take it slow. So, when I reach out to people to let them know I'll be in the area, I get extremely irritated when I get responses like "yeah, I'll be around" or "I'll have to get back to you." Especially when a few months before, when vacationing was only an idea and not a reality, they were all for "YES COME HANG OUT, WE'LL HAVE SO MUCH FUN!"
Seriously, don't effing waste my time with your flakey BS. Either you want to hang out, or you don't. I have anxiety problems. I need time to process plans, to feel comfortable. Last minute stuff doesn't work for me. Even more so when I'm in an area I'm not familiar with.�Experience is what you get when you didn't get what you wanted. And experience is often the most valuable thing you have to offer.�

Yap. Well if they don't get back to me soon, I'll just tell them my time got filled up. And I'll sit my happy ass in the hammock at my in-laws and enjoy the quiet the whole time. My dog will love it more, too, rather than being in a strange place by herself for several hours.�Experience is what you get when you didn't get what you wanted.

Re: The Rant Thread (v 1.2)
My phone just did a software update... so now I get kind of motionsick using it because it does this weird zoom effect thingy when it opens or closes any app. It has also removed my english dictionary so now it keeps changing what I write into similar Danish words.You remind me of the babe
What babe?
The babe with the power
What power?
The Power of voodoo
Who do?
You do!
Do what?

Re: The Rant Thread (v 1.2)
This is more of an eye-roll than a rant but...
I've been doing more yoga lately for reasons I've probably discussed to death here already. I recently started doing sequences from youtube for that 'class at home' feeling. Just now I was watching a routine I'd like to try (I always watch them first) and was surprised and slightly offended when she called what I know as 'Goddess arms', 'cactus arms'! This just smacks of Christian BS (no, this is not a Christian bashing thing.. it's a certain type of Christian bashing thing. You know, the kind who are too busy being offended by EVERYTHING to actually practice what the Bible prescribes). If the culture you're borrowing from offends you, go do Pilates!
Yeah, Yeah... I know there are lots of asanas or positions with several anglicised names, but this one just rubbed me up the wrong way as it's so obviously a decision by some sensitive little new-aged Christian from.. well somewhere where there are a lot of cacti, right?Last edited by Jembru; 25 May 2017, 17:34.夕方に急なにわか雨は「夕立」と呼ばれるなら、なぜ朝ににわか雨は「朝立ち」と呼ばれないの? ^^If a sudden rain shower in the evening is referred to as an 'evening stand', then why isn't a shower in the morning called 'morning stand'?

Texas,heads backwards on Abortion.
Texas Bill Could Send People to Jail for Driving a Woman to an Abortion, Lawmaker Says
Story.
The Abolish Abortion Act, proposed by Arlington Republican Tony Tinderholt, also of the far-right House Freedom Caucus, would criminalize abortion at any stage and charge women and providers with a felony, without exemption for rape or incest. Tinderholt told the Observer the proposal would “force” women to be “more personally responsible.” Another proposal by fellow caucus member Matt Schaefer, R-Tyler, would remove the exception for fetal anomaly from the state’s 20-week abortion ban.MAGIC is MAGIC,black OR white or even blood RED

Apparently people like getting smacked by Federal courts.Life itself was a lightsaber in his hands; even in the face of treachery and death and hopes gone cold, he burned like a candle in the darkness. Like a star shining in the black eternity of space.
Yoda: Dark Rendezvous
"But those men who know anything at all about the Light also know that there is a fierceness to its power, like the bare sword of the law, or the white burning of the sun." Suddenly his voice sounded to Will very strong, and very Welsh. "At the very heart, that is. Other things, like humanity, and mercy, and charity, that most good men hold more precious than all else, they do not come first for the Light. Oh, sometimes they are there; often, indeed. But in the very long run the concern of you people is with the absolute good, ahead of all else..."

Re: The Rant Thread (v 1.2)
Rest in peace, Adam West, you were my first Batman. Your show and your movie provided me with hours of joy and happiness when I was a child dealing with tough times. You made me fall in love with a character that I still fascinate about even in my adulthood. It all started with you. You had such an impact and influence on a little kid like me, a kid you'll never get to know, a kid that never got to thank you. Thank you for everything.[4:82]

Re: The Rant Thread (v 1.2)
Just found this,and a good list of fake news sites.
Here.
Fake news websites deliberately publish hoaxes and disinformation to drive web traffic inflamed by social media.[3][4][5] These sites are distinguished from news satire (which is humorous) as they mislead and profit from readers' gullibility.[4] While most fake news sites are portrayed to be spinoffs of other news sites, some of these websites are examples of website spoofing, structured to make visitors believe they are visiting trusted sources like ABC News or MSNBC.[6] The New York Times pointed out that within a strict definition, "fake news" on the Internet referred to a fictitious article which was fabricated with the deliberate motivation to defraud readers, generally with the goal of profiting through clickbait.[7] PolitiFact described fake news as fabricated content designed to fool readers and subsequently made viral through the Internet to crowds that increase its dissemination.[8]MAGIC is MAGIC,black OR white or even blood RED
