Steam Decked

I’ve seen things more moronic and self-harming, but it was usually in a person who’d taken so much meth they were starting to steam.

Prep

Definitely not “grotesquely emaciated.” I’d say extremely thin. But look at her arms! They are fuckin’ jacked. No one with arms like that is anywhere close to emaciated.

All that’s going on here is someone who was already fit and skinny and prepped to look like that in the outfit she wanted to wear. Still not that healthy, all told, but not that bad. Prep == eating a bit less for a few weeks and then dehydrating yourself for a couple of days before the event.

Again, no one actually emaciated would have such nice arms. It’s just not possible to do. At all. It’s just the FA nutters and women’s intrasexual competition reacting to someone who looks great. And they are burning with envy and hatred.

Move Right

I don’t agree with a lot of contentions in this post. For instance, January 6 was definitely a coup attempt but the right will never admit anything but the absurd idea that it was some kind of rowdy capitol tour group (which is fucking hilarious, if you think about it ).

However, I agree with what the consequences will be: these events combined with liberal inaction on crime and disorder in large urban areas will move people to the right. In general, the worst-run, most crazy-people-ridden cities are all blue ones. Everyone knows this, though some lie about it. Hell, in our very blue city there are hundreds of ranting roving drifters who are unpredictable and unpleasant to be around even if they aren’t committing any actual crimes at the moment. Commerce and community would go way up if these vagrants weren’t around.

People are tired of it. And they rightly blame liberals for a lot of it. As they should.

We’ll see what it brings, but I doubt it’ll be better. Both sides are full of bullshit, alas.
