- Comment on The poop psa absolutely no one asked for 1 day ago:
I’m so sorry for the loss of your friend. I have a close relative that was just diagnosed with pancreatic cancer AND my friend’s dad was diagnosed too. They both slowly were losing weight and were forced into the doctor.
Anyone reading if you’re losing weight and not doing anything different go to the doctor!

I’m willing to pump up other insects to get rid of mosquitoes
- Comment on POV: You're too shy to tell the medical staff that you just woke up during surgery. 6 days ago:
What’s up cousin! I have this gene. Also have EDS and we have a ton of red hair in our family.
I also woke up during a pediatric surgery! Mine was a facial surgery. I was out for a bit and near the close end I woke up and was aware of everything except the pain.
Thanks for letting me know about the vasectomy pain because those are supposed to be easy! Yikes sorry man.
I wish we could add this to our medical files. Like it should be easy to do but for some reason it always comes down to the patient and whether the doctor feels like believing them that day.
Bonus: We also process opioids rapidly. So, those don’t work on us either. But the trade off is we have higher pain thresholds than normal people.
- Comment on Why aren't there mass protests in the USA? 3 weeks ago:
Hmmm then we are deeper into this than the world has realized. I think the gilded sheen is still there—but the rot underneath is deeper than the outside thinks.
Meaning, the mass protests that broke out in the millions across the country from 2017 to 2020–that era was the “protest era.”
What are we in now? Sure as hell not a protest era. We are way beyond.
As someone who has closely studied the evolution of spycraft from Ancient Intelligence to the development of the modern Intelligence Community—I know that because of my knowledge—I feel exactly as you say here. If I am taken out now for being too open or too loud, the side of humanity loses me in the fight. And it is so god damn easy to misstep.
We are and have been under massive constant surveillance. The facial scanning at airports has expanded to the physical border if you’re crossing by land. They say they delete your photo—but I assume they’re instead storing the biometrics. This is and will be used against us.
The tech companies in control know most of us better than we know ourselves. We are tracked every second of every day. They don’t need warrants when they already have access to profiles of data on almost every human in America. Even if we were in a normal world—the constitution generally doesn’t apply to private corporations. This is and will be used against us.
There is no safety “protesting” or organizing unless it’s done in a tight, cell operations that have some communication in between but function so that if one goes down the network stays intact. Intelligence and resistance groups survive when they’re federated.
Master’s tools cannot dismantle the master’s house. Organizing on a mass scale across the country without using any tech that touches our adversaries right now is not possible. So, first we must figure out how to share information quickly and easily in a way that excludes big tech capture and government capture.
Figuring this independent communication hurdle out is more important right now than getting out on the street with a geotagged phone and smiling for a drone who is sure to snag your biometric data. And I’m saying this as someone who has been in full scale car tipping rubber bullets everything on fire riots.

Yo check this new theory out. Might want to change your IP.
- Comment on SHUT UP ABOUT NICOLE 3 weeks ago:
Interesting. Hey thanks for the information. It seems if someone gets a DM they get more than one sent.
So, you might be right in that you were specifically sent a spam—maybe because you angered the Nicole good.
We’ll see! I hope the rest of your week is Nicole free! 👍
- Comment on SHUT UP ABOUT NICOLE 3 weeks ago:
Interesting. Links to a go fund me are theorized to be interlopers or maybe people just using this to try to get money—it’s it deviates from the original iteration.
Do you happen to know the username? The naming scheme also changed in the past few days when the new asking for money showed up.
If not that’s ok. 👌
- Comment on SHUT UP ABOUT NICOLE 3 weeks ago:
Might be because of your instance. I still haven’t gotten one.
There’s been no evidence of this leading to a scam — romance or otherwise. So, now it’s a theory that this poor woman is most likely not aware and possibly being blackmailed.
I was just memeing but the “rare” part more seriously would be a new photo drop that we haven’t had before. The newest photo is her looking down. All of the photos increasingly look like a hacked feed of a real person who is unaware they’re having their photo taken.
The drive behind collecting information is more from a benevolent stance of trying to warn this real person irl that her likeness is being exploited.

If it’s a rare Nicole you have to post it that’s the rules now. You have to. Promise if it’s a rare Nicole you’ll post. PROMISE
- Comment on Musk shares post that Hitler didn’t kill millions, public workers did. Union rages 4 weeks ago:
I keep screaming this to my friends and family.
WHERE ARE THE DERIVATIVE LAWSUITS!?
To be fair, there is a derivative law suit still working and it’s around the excessive bonus they granted musk and then retracted and then re-granted atter reincorporating TESLA in Texas.
I have read that many who would be able to bring suit are in Musk’s pocket. Like his brother, for example.
I really would love to see some derivative suits going though.
- Comment on Starbucks continues to be terrible 4 weeks ago:
It’s a self made recession by the corporations themselves. A thousand employees don’t matter to their bottom line.
If preparing for a recession is to blame here, then why at the same time are the Starbucks board giving the CEO $96 million buckadoos?
- Comment on Starbucks continues to be terrible 4 weeks ago:
Again: we do not have to allow this. We do not have to allow “shit-work” companies to compete in our markets, where they drive reasonable, responsible employers out of business.
Well put and logical. Taking this thanks.

I trust you know this person well and that your experience is accurate.
However, you might find it useful to look up coping mechanisms in dealing with someone with OCPD. OCPD is extremely common and people with this personality disorder usually are extremely miserly and controlling. I’m not saying your person has this disorder. But from your story, the issues with money align closely enough that the tools people use in dealing with OCPD miserliness might help you. Or at the very least it might help you feel less alone in that experience.
I’m really sorry you are having to manage that and deal with this. You sound like a very reasonable and empathetic person. Please do something small and kind for yourself tomorrow. ❤️

How the fuck isn’t this stuff against business laws. How does this not break the fiduciary duty by self-dealing?
If what you’re saying is accurate then he’s a pro at creating parallel evidence.
Who am I kidding? Anyone who could bring a suit against the CEO probably doesn’t care.
