  • Can relate. I became insomniac a few years ago. Couldn’t sleep until 4 or 5 in the morning sometimes, trying to stay afloat in my life on three or four hours of bad sleep a day. After watching a stray cat for several days or weeks, we finally adopted it. He kept yelling at me to feed him every morning, the little bastard. It helped me start the day because I couldn’t let him go hungry because he was always looking out for me. I love the way cats make themselves at home. They may look like lazy little moochers, but they are disciplined and take care of themselves all the time, their lives have structure. You can learn a lot from the way they spend their time.

    Mine used to take half an hour removed about my lazyness to feed them, but I was on time, not them. Got fed up (pun intended) and bought a couple of automated feeders. Not my problem anymore. Weird fact: instead of removed and yelling to the auto-feeder, they wait silently in front of it for the very same amount of time or more.

    Hold on. I get tolerance to Nazis is not something societies should procure, but I personally will take anyone holding a banner, no matter how stupid it is, against anyone holding a weapon against whatever they find stupid.

    Of course, if those holding banners start grabbing guns, that’s another thing.

    EDIT: to all your rabid replies, understand one thing: I don’t support racist ideas. I do prefer stupid people with banners rather than stupid people with weapons. It’s not that hard to understand.




  • RT is a joke but particularly the tomatometer. IIRC a 51/100 is considered a positive review for the tomatometer. So, a hundred of 51/100 reviews will give it a 100% tomatometer score. Of course this doesn’t happen a lot but you get the point.

    Now, Supacell. Damn, it sucks big time. I like watching southern London and black people culture on TV, but the value of a TV show like that must rely on the narrative, and the narrative of this show is just amateur.





  • It is not about you, specifically. One people do not make a culture. But see, what I find baffling is that real guns are taken into movie sets, when they repeatedly have been used to kill cast and crew members since decades ago, and it is still not prohibited. School shootings, attempted assassination of presidential candidates, Wal-Mart shootings with guns sold in place, bar massacres, etc. they all come from this gun culture.

    Take a look at user Thorny_Insight higly upvoted comment. While I guess I should be appreciative of its informative content, I just find violent that, without any warning, they link to a photograph of a loaded revolver pointing at the viewer’s face without realizing that is probably kind of fucked up. That’s what baffles me, like, no fucking kidding those guns are real?! A man was killed. Then they show me a photograph of a loaded revolver pointing at my face to demonstrate how real real guns look like. I hope you see my point.
