People with a highly metaphysical worldview are easier to deceive and manipulate because their normal logic barriers have already been broken down - ie, if you already believe that the earth and everything on it was created by an omnipotent superbeing in six days, it's not much of a further leap to believe that demons are making you horny.

5 - a cheerfully written letter addressed to the slain party's significant other, describing in glowing terms how the slain party feels like they have a new lease on life ever since kicking some unnamed and dreadful disease, and how they can't wait for this last job to end so they can come back home and start being the husband/wife/boyfriend/girlfriend/whateverfriend that they always wanted to be.

In a private statement following his account being let back online, Mamdani called the suspension “an alarming example of how corporate social media platforms police and suppress progressive political speech under vague pretenses to satisfy their corporate sponsors.”

If ever there was a solid argument for not using corporate social media, this is it.

That's the real question, isn't it? When our employers demand more of our time than we get to spend with our actual families, the take-it-slow life just isn't a possibility. Unless you're independently wealthy.

Can't go wrong with Linux Mint

I think it's okay as long as it is a temporary thing. I would definitely look into a quality therapist who can address any underlying issues.

I would have to say organized religion. I grew up in a pretty strict christian home, but as I grew older I began to see how much of what I had been told was just patently false and designed to manipulate and control. I have done a lot (decades worth) of studying and reading and I'm confident that the conclusions I have arrived at are correct. Of course, your mileage may vary.

Why do you think the fascists try so hard to keep them divided and fighting each other?

There is always a social media propaganda campaign going on. On just about any subject you can think of. Is this really the first time you're noticing? You do know that governments, political parties and corporations employ people whose only job is to study and manipulate social media trends, right? What do you think a social media 'influencer' is?

Read what she said. She's not telling anyone to get violent. She's saying they should be joining the peaceful resistance movement. But of course, the ones we're peacefully resisting are going to spin it as encouraging violence - while they kidnap, assault and abuse innocent civilians.

Somebody said 'resistance', and these morons heard 'assistance' and came running. Traitors.

It's pretty much a thankless job 80% of the time - which is why I have to take my joy from the act of creating something and NOT from the approval and appreciation of my players. It's sad that it has to be like this, but it's always been this way - at least in my experience.

When you reveal yourself to be a bigoted, hateful person, most evolved and compassionate people tend to dislike you.

I've been to a few 'clothing optional' events in my time - and this is how I have successfully navigated those events:

• Don't talk to a naked woman unless SHE initiates the conversation.
• Don't make ANY comments about a naked woman's appearance unless SHE comments about yours FIRST.
• Keep your eyes on a naked woman's FACE.

Is this stupid and unfair? Yes. Have I ever been asked to leave one of these events, or gotten into any trouble? No. If you can't handle it, don't go to these types of events.

ACLU and the Electronic Frontier Foundation.

God, PLEASE...go with actually faster combat. It's hard enough to get everyone to commit to showing up to the game for a few hours on any kind of a regular basis. Don't waste what little time they DO have to tell stories together with pointless minutia. Just one guy's (very fervent) opinion. ;)

My list of reasons to never visit Idaho just keeps getting longer and longer.

Exactly. Not encouraging violence, encouraging ACTIVISM. I fucking love it!

I believe a fair and reasonable restocking fee is absolutely justified when customers try to game the system. Having worked in several retail establishments over the years, I can tell you that this sort of behavior is rampant and I've seen lots of really shady shit from people, including:

• Buying clothes for a special event and then trying to return them the next day.
• Buying a tool to fix something in your home, and then trying to return it the next day.
• Breaking an item that you purchased, and then wanting to return it, claiming that it is defective.

People are opportunists. If there are no controls in place to keep some people from doing shitty things, some people will do shitty things.

Emulate honorable people instead of popular people.

Never use 'telling the truth' as an excuse to speak without thought or compassion.

You are 100% responsible for what you say and what you do. Own your shit.

If someone is trying, but struggling - encourage them. If someone is struggling, but not really trying - encourage them.

Don't waste your time trying to 'be a leader' or climb any corporate ladders. Just do your job and be kind, generous, truthful and compassionate. What is meant for you will be for you.

Read. A lot. From actual books. As many as you can get your hands on.

Stop putting yourself down. Seriously, it's not fucking helping you. AT ALL.
