  • I appreciate the suggestion, I’ll look into it. That said, im a firm believer in the schools of thought around calculated risk. Letting them fall sure, but into a somewhat safe or even lightly padded area - enough to feel the shock and some light pain that is informative in teaching them to be more careful and internally weigh potential risk against their future actions, but also avoiding said threat to life and limb.

    Personally, I’m of the mind that a lot of the “just let them fall” theory is more to soothe the guilt of the parents and many of those “walk it off” kids had multiple TBIs and grew up to be one eyed, nine toed, frontal lobe damaged trump voters.



  • My wife, thinking I’m too careful with our child.

    I think I’m (objectively) fairly balanced, maybe leaning towards careful, sure. But really I just want the baby to grow to the point of being able to walk without involuntary nose dives with both eyeballs still intact.

    Yes, I think it’s too much for the baby to be allowed to run around with that actual kitchen tool in hand. Yes I know the baby loves it, but it’s essentially a metal rod. Constantly derails an otherwise good day to speak up, but here to on the baby’s behalf.









  • *Randy looks out the window to see a 93 year old grandmother being slowly chased and tackled by a 340 pound limp-jogging, hyperventilating, otherwise unemployable 32 year old virgin in a balaclava in 90 degree heat and desert camo vest in the middle of the suburbs. His tactical armor vest, which was sold to him with a cardboard plate that he thinks is bulletproof, also has the word “fedirel” spelled wrong on the name plate. On the bottom, he wears Buffalo bills sweatpants with the logo colored in with black sharpie.

    *Randy goes back to polling agency’s phone call

    “You know, I’m starting to think the country might be approaching the possibility of entering the wrong track eventually, maybe… If this keeps up for another 12-15 years, things could start to potentially get a little bleak… Uh huh, no I don’t mind sharing that info with you, I am what they call an undecided voter cuz I ain’t one a these liberal sheeps”


  • “Socialism is still unpopular…”

    Cool cool cool, so just show me an overlay of how these audiences define “socialism”, without any hints given.

    And hey data analyst… Don’t be sneaky and aggregate the overtly racist answers into the “closest” group to mask how ugly they are… just have a dedicated group so we can understand the true % that basically said socialism is “free stuff for minorities” - but likely in a lot more unnecessary and incorrect words a la Miss South Carolina’s, “and as such, in the case of being US Americans and, as such, in the Iraq, and such as.”

    Bad faith to include progressives here… You are exclusively describing third party spoilers like green and you very likely know that.

    Progressives are represented throughout US politics VERY actively, pushing boulders up these hills covered in feces. Meanwhile green party only has a couple dinners with Putin and trump’s cabinet members in the interim years before they activate for a general election.

    Nobody is buying what you are shoveling, chief.




  • Interesting. Not unbelievable, but I hadn’t heard specifically. Also, always assumed the point was that it would never have a set or core membership? “We are anonymous” means that you, me, grandpa, we’re all also anonymous, if we have the skillset and want to take up the mantle.

    So in that way, anonymous could never be contained/captured in the way you mentioned. Again, that was just more my assumption/understanding. “I am Sparticus”, V for Vendetta, etc…
