1999 probably doing air cadet instructor course in penhold, alberta

2006: (20060509) - self-analysis can cause depression. Our world may be built on smoke and mirrors

2008 we weren't spending a billion dollars a day on war[in iraq], and our meat wasn't toxic. [ "...well some things do change over time."]

2009

"I'm aware now how finite all human relationships are how finite the charisma and beauty of youth can be both internal and external I'm aware now, how deep and special the moments are when you're with the person you're falling in love with And that you need to make the best of their every second

You can stare blankly into the distance, and only be waiting and you can't always not be doing this but those seconds are precious and worth a lot"

2010: #noagenda on the g20 protests and the police response. worth remembering : this is what happens when we elect conservatives - a billion dollars+ spent, toronto becoming an occupied zone...etc https://www.noagendashow.net/listen/212

2011 Getting old is an exercise in slowly losing everything, including any dignity you ever had.

2014 "We have to internalize the goodness of the world that we come across in our lives. "

2015 Even the tools that allow you to make sense of loss, you'll eventually lose. If you want to survive, practice losing, because you're going to need to be able to hit the ground rolling when the big pillars that hold you up crumble.

2016 " good news; coffee, mate and hot beverages possibly not carcinogenic. http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2016/06/15/coffee-may-protect-against-cancer-w-h-o-concludes/ "

2018 [storms]

2019 [f0d]

2021 chromebook bricked itself

2020 "907g of perogies = 1 minute of camgirl time."

2021

"quick rundown:

• feminism.lgbt was a mastodon instance that, on the surface, looked to be like your typical left-leaning instance, complete with a ridiculous about page

• in fact, that's why i signed up: i was disenfranchised from being constantly banned from mastodon instances for my edgy memes, and i wanted to bait one final retard into banning me so i couldn move on

• so you can imagine my surprise when sjw at feminism dot lgbt was actually an anime posting impostor. it was the perfect cover

• many fun times were had under this false impression, including very surprised mastodon users reporting sjw to himself and the first inklings of what became #fediblock

• however, one day we got a bit too cocky and trolled the wrong person. they started a mass email campaign to the registrar of .lgbt and got our domain take. away for "hate speech against the lgbt community"

• neckbeard.xyz was registered as a replacement, and sjw switched to hosting pleroma instead of mastodon"

• @graf@poa.st i think

2022 healthcare system in #fordnation is in a state of collapse.

2023

interesting that none of the stories of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Junayd_of_Baghdad (and Sari https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sari_al-Saqati ) from #kashfAlMahjub appear in his wikipedia article sari / baghdadi went to sleep sari dreamt allah was getting muhammed #ﷺ telling baghdadi something, muhammed #ﷺ shows up in baghdadi's dream telling him something. This coincidence of makyo is a cute trick, but was used as evidence of not just their faith but also that *the sheikh gets access to the dreamstate of his disciples "Sheikhs are in every case acquainted with the inwardly experiences of their disciples"

Imagine believing this today. This is the sort of thing young children believe about adults before they get a fully developed theory of mind - they don't know that their parents can't know what they are thinking without inference, and don't know how an inference can be drawn.

2024

for anyone who wants to live in a country where the next generation of youth are excited about science and challenging the understanding of our world using experiment, instead of just passively accepting ancient backwards religious dogma. https://xcancel.com/jeffcliff1/status/1821750054442725881

@Soy_Magnus@clew.lol @barrybestt

that's literally why they created the vaers system so they could cover up vaccine damages uncured by populations and free corporations of liability El heffe lol.

VAERS was created as part of the reagan reforms due to antivaxxers suing the fuck out of vaccine companies for bullshit reasons -- the damages weren't 'covered over' when published in VAERS -- they were brought to light in a compromise with antivaxxers. Turned out that compromise was mostly a mistake, since people like andrew wakefield/the geiers weaponized VAERS later anyway (and antivax covidiots still do).

And I'm not talking about mercury in vaccines I mean straight mercury it was used as medicine

sure, and we haven't used it in a long time since it's clear to everyone in medicine that it's actually harmful in elemental form

I haven't been "vaccinated" since I was held down and forced as a kid and I'm healthier than anyone I know lol

you rn ->

@Soy_Magnus@clew.lol @barrybestt That's mostly an antivax misrepresentation -- though the number is higher than it was in previous generations, it's just that many more diseases infants are protected against

At some point you'll have to reconcile with, how much of a good thing does it take to become a poison

Vaccines aren't poison, and they don't 'become poison' at doses given. They are about as good as a thing as humanity has ever created, outside of stuff like fire, music, the internet, the haber-bosch process, air conditioning and lox.

@fkq1q2r2@noauthority.social @ceo_of_monoeye_dating@tsundere.love @JoeBravo77@poa.st Whatever. You're too fucked in the head to be allowed within civilization at all, so what happens in civilization doesn't concern you.

It is worth noting that this case went to a higher court and the manslaughterer received 15 months of prison time along with a 4 year ban on driving.

Exactly. The justice system worked in the end, and that judge got all the feedback she needed. She doesn't need threats from scum like you

@GenesRus@poa.st @Soy_Magnus@clew.lol @barrybestt

I’m saying that overly much standing on authority just ain’t it, man.

OK so I'm standing on the shoulders of toxicologists on this one, I'll grant you that. But following what scientists who actually study what poisons/toxins do to the body actually say is not just appealing to "authority" -- toxicologists don't just assign things as poisons/toxic out of fiat, but due to the actual evidence of what they do.

@GenesRus@poa.st @Soy_Magnus@clew.lol @barrybestt

But if you directly ask a doc in an antiVaxx bantz if there has ever been Mercury in vaccines and he insists the answer is NO because there was no metallic mercury, then he’s not being particularly transparent.

Or maybe because he doesn't know ancient medical history? Most doctors don't know what they used in ancient egypt either.

Now think of that overly protective mother who is a’scared of chemicals in general.

Exactly - antivax is based on entirely irrational chemophobia https://news.immunologic.org/p/chemophobia-is-breaking-public-health and that level of ignorance leads to terrible things

Bro I tell you for the last time is your browser's fingerprinting, ok?

And I tell you for the last time that copyright is not a function of the browser. It is an attribute of the media.

Any vid can just be played

Whether a video can be played has no bearing on whether it is copyright-restricted cultural cancer.

I don't see the point of your arguments here..

Because you are sharing copyright-restricted media in public, and poisoning the culture of the fedi with it.

There is no fix. The damage is permanent. Someone needs to tell these kids it's not getting better.

@saskboy@mastodon.cc RT @envidreamz@birdsite

A 16 y/o: “Since the start of the school year I cannot think anymore. I can’t write properly, forget things easily, can’t read.”

Top advice: “Remove porn, cut screen time, take creatine and a multivitamin. Should fix it in a week.”

Covid is stealing minds from teenagers, and people still acting like random lifestyle change will fix it. https://xcancel.com/envidreamz/status/2074488050059468859

@ForsakenWanderer@kiwifarms.cc @Soy_Magnus@clew.lol @barrybestt >If the clot shot wasn't poison why did they have to force it on people?

BECAUSE COVID IS KILLING TENS OF MILLIONS OF PEOPLE

The clot shot doesn't stop you getting covid

Depends on the variant, but it does prevent some to most infection.

doesn't stop you getting sick from covid,

Depends on the variant(ie vaccine escape has occurred multiple times) but it can prevent infection and reduce severity of disease

doesn't stop you spreading covid,

Since it can prevent infection it can prevent spread.

so it doesn't matter if the entire population takes it or not.

That's a fucking lie. Population studies have been done and the covid vaccines have saved tens of millions of lives at this point, and saved tens of millions more from disability and severe disease.

If you take the clot shot

It's not a "clot shot" - COVID causes blood clot problems covid vaccines prevent it.

and I don't, it makes no difference to you.

Yeah actually it does because it marks you as being unfit to be allowed to live, a danger to the rest of the human species, who should be publicly executed to make an example
