  • Realistically (I know that word means nothing here), if FTL were possible and utilised by a galactic society, it would have to be the type you're talking about.

    Space is mostly empty, sure, but there is enough shit out there to be a problem if something hit it at light speed.

    Imagine hitting the FTL button, the stars stretch around you, and then you appear at the other end to find a graveyard of spaceships around a dead planet.

    Then the emergency lights start up, and then you realise half of your ship has been hit with the astronomical equivalent of buckshot. Your ship passed through screws and bolts; parts of Elon's fucking Testla from five thousand years ago.

    Fuck you Elon.


  • Two things:

    1. It sounds like you are blaming yourself, which is hard not to do when everything seems futile - but how you frame things is part of CBT.

    You are responsible for the choices you make, but there's a difference between learning, and beating yourself up.

    Once you understand the underlying causes for your decisions, you become a different person, and it becomes harder to associate those old thoughts to who you are now.

    1. Don't put all your eggs in one basket. Be cautious of anyone who will accept the task.

    I used to think my parents had shit figured out, then I realised how dumb they were.

    Then I thought I had shit figured out, then I realised how dumb I was.

    Then I thought I found my own guru who had shit figured out, but then I realised how dumb they were.

    If you get lucky and find someone who provides valuable insights, understand this is gambling - eventually they will give bad advice.

    What the actual fuck? I thought it looked poorly shopped, but it's legit.

    I choose to believe Gabe had stored all that energy for just such an occasion.


  • Seems great in practice, but wait until someone with the slightest hint of paranoia misattributes a threat against their car, to a threat against their safety.

    One of three things happen:

    • Driver freaks out and freezes up.
    • Driver freaks out and speeds away (possibly causing an accident)
    • Driver freaks out and aims their car at you and puts their foot down.





  • Fun story for y'all.

    I used to drink a lot of milk. I was a constipated teen. I took a shit one day, and to say it was anything short of awe aspiring wouldn't do it justice. This thing was one solid thick rod sticking out of the water.

    I called my stepdad to check it out. Naturally, he was so surprised he had to tell Mum to come over. A few minutes later we've got a whole family of six in a bathroom admiring my turd.

    My stepdad claims to have uploaded it to ratemypoo .com (don't bother going there, the site takes you to ratemypussy .com).

    This day I learned our family was not normal.

    I might be one of those odd people who wouldn't hide it, since I have no problems with telling family members to fuck off if they're removed.

    Family is who you treat like family. Just because this person is part of your family, and you're part of my family, that doesn't make them part of my family.

    Besides, I would really love the idea of pissing some of them off.
