[08:09:47] <kyonko_> i am so fucking sober
[08:09:58] <chromas> Is that unusual?
[08:10:04] <kyonko_> no
[08:10:12] <kyonko_> I chose life instead of death
[08:10:18] <kyonko_> so now I have to deal with being a geezer
[08:10:43] <kyonko_> i have a fuckton of pre-existing conditions
[08:11:58] <kyonko_> I did not get $1,200
[08:12:07] <kyonko_> boo
[08:12:29] <boru> Have you considered a blog?
[08:13:02] <kyonko_> I'm copying a blog with winhttrack before they delete the internet
[08:13:06] <chromas> You have to pass Go to collect $1,200.
[08:14:00] <kyonko_> should I be anonymous on my blog? facebook raped me
[08:14:41] <chromas> You don't have any more facebook accounts?
[08:14:57] <kyonko_> you know, I may start one up with my burner phone
[08:15:05] <kyonko_> but how do I not make a fatal mistake?
[08:15:21] <chromas> I guess it's been awhile since I created a bunch of fb accounts but I didn't need a phone number for it
[08:15:32] <kyonko_> facebook has a deep learning profile of me
[08:15:47] <kyonko_> you were into facebook when it was a hot or not back in 2006?
[08:16:15] <kyonko_> cant believe incels don't remember hot or nots of the early 2000's
[08:16:34] <chromas> I remember for awhile the nav blue bar was on the bottom.
[08:16:41] <chromas> But it was already Facebook by then
[08:16:58] <kyonko_> facebook is a hard core data collector
[08:18:18] <kyonko_> my life would have been way different if I hadn't dismissed facebook as another AOL
[08:18:24] * chromas fills in some fb quizzes. they won't aggregate this data, right?
[08:18:36] <chromas> You'd be much richer
[08:18:50] <kyonko_> I joined facebook in 2014 with 2FA to see what all the bad press was about
[08:18:53] <kyonko_> I GOT FUCKED
[08:19:09] <chromas> Shouldn't've used 2fa
[08:19:23] <kyonko_> microsoft 2FA isn't

[08:22:26] <kyonko_> the emperor wears no clothes
[08:22:59] <kyonko_> I'm not going to shit post on FB after the damn lockdown is over
[08:23:10] <kyonko_> I stopped using it a few days before april
[08:23:20] <kyonko_> guess what? no one gives a fuck about me
[08:23:27] <kyonko_> or my life photos
[08:23:39] <kyonko_> its like I'm not even there
[08:23:49] <chromas> it's true
[08:23:56] <chromas> that's why you have to make up shit like everyone else does
[08:23:59] <kyonko_> yes, a few people I suspected do give a fuck about me, as enemies
[08:24:02] <kyonko_> and they blocked me
[08:24:09] <chromas> or follow some shitposting pages
[08:24:56] <kyonko_> one thing i do like about facebook is the nihilism and atheism groups
[08:25:24] <kyonko_> its gay they don't allow google to crawl them like they used too
[08:25:25] <chromas> Did you ever try Google Plus?
[08:25:32] <kyonko_> I have a gmail
[08:25:42] <kyonko_> a retarded girl I know had one
[08:26:12] <kyonko_> I remember back in the early 2010's you googled someone's name and city and it came out with their facebook profile
[08:26:16] <kyonko_> the MSM cried bloody murder
[08:26:40] <kyonko_> this girl who liked me in 8th grade, she never used her real name for facebook
[08:26:44] <kyonko_> to her own peril

[18:51:28] <chromas> I read that they shut down their casinos. Or one did. Probably.
[18:51:58] <chromas> I guess now'd be the time to spin up online gambling casinos
[18:52:28] <chromas> Get whitey on his own land
[18:52:34] <FatPhil> so doing would make pretty good sense, apart from slots/pachinko. Just tape off 2 in 3 of those, and wipe them down after the punter's left.
[18:53:00] <chromas> Just get everyone more drunk. The alcohol spills will take care of the germs
[18:53:44] <chromas> Or hook up the sprinkler system to detergent and have a bleach party every 20 minutes

[19:10:07] * FatPhil wonders if his g/f will be mailed a stimulus check - is it for residents or citizens?
[19:11:03] <chromas> I think if you haven't file taxes in the last couple years or get benefits from something then you have to fill a form
[19:11:47] <FatPhil> gov site lists some inelligible classes of people, and she ain't in them, and ends with "everyone else should".
[19:13:09] <FatPhil> She files a tax return every year despite having no US income evar, and bugger all savings there.
[19:14:14] <chromas> Might have to give them an account to deposit to otherwise she should get a check
[19:14:30] <chromas> It might take longer because they'll have to convert it to a cheque
[19:15:59] <FatPhil> The republic of Estonia doesn't even know what a check or a cheque is. We've never had non-electronic banking.
[19:16:59] * chromas scrubs Estonia's head

[19:42:25] <chromas> To Anal Nachos Non-Steroidal Tacos And A Fish Lammich
[19:46:35] <FatPhil> woo woo - looks like we get gibs! "US citizens living abroad, just like Americans who are living Stateside, are feeling worried, anxious and uncertain about not just their health but their finances. The US government has intervened with financial assistance for all Americans – including US expats."
[19:58:00] <guy_> Finances are looking up a wee bit here - as a health care provider, my wife is getting a $1000/month bonus from Uncle Sam
[19:58:44] <guy_> Don't know if that goes retroactive to the past couple months, or how long it will last
[19:59:50] <guy_> The downside to that is, she is at more risk than I am, with all the people she comes into contact with
[20:00:09] <guy_> We're talking about physically touching people all through her shift
[20:00:16] <Bytram> guy_: Good to hear about the bonus... do take care and be well. And be mindful she's "on the line" every day and that brings it own batch of stresses with it.
[20:00:57] * guy_ wouldn't want her job
[20:01:11] <guy_> could probably do it if I just had to, but sure don't want it
[20:01:21] <Bytram> In my experience, as much as I am a guy and seem to be wired to want to *fix* things, oftentimes the best I can do is listen, maybe share what I think are similar experiences, and be a "safe place" for them to unload.
[20:01:24] <FatPhil> Yeah, my sympathies are most with those on the front line at the moment.
[20:02:26] <guy_> I made myself a bit of fun today
[20:02:39] <guy_> fraudulent seller on ebay has a return headed his way
[20:02:59] <guy_> I packed in a box 20x too big, with lots of waste packing laying around
[20:03:00] <chromas> Cinderblocks with postage paid by recipient?
[20:03:18] <guy_> I thought about a brick or six, but didn't go that far
[20:03:20] <FatPhil> I've done a birthday present like that once :)
[20:03:38] <FatPhil> how fraudulent?
[20:03:47] <guy_> Uhhhhh, toilet paper
[20:04:02] <chromas> He only sent you one-ply?
[20:04:10] <guy_> he advertised Charmin, priced kinda high, but we ordered it
[20:04:23] <FatPhil> chromas: You can glue it together into 2-ply using spit.
[20:04:29] <chromas> Fucking Angelsoft, huh
[20:04:30] <guy_> he sent some Chinese stuff, about 4 rolls equal to a single roll of store brand
[20:05:03] <chromas> You should use it and put it into the return package
[20:05:13] <chromas> then post it
[20:05:19] <chromas> a shitpost
[20:05:21] <guy_> thought about it, but that creates health hazard to people shipping it
[20:05:21] <FatPhil> I hope his annoyance is yours multiplied 4-fold.
[20:05:34] <FatPhil> probably crosses other lines too
[20:05:51] <chromas> bioerrorism
[20:05:54] <guy_> his feedback page on ebay has dived into the abyss
[20:07:09] <FatPhil> His social credit score has become negative - he can't fly any more!
[20:07:38] <guy_> he can fly out of business, and come back with a new ID to scam people with
[20:08:22] <chromas> screwing westerners probably increments the score
[20:08:57] <guy_> Oh yeah - folding at home
[20:09:14] <guy_> the wife now approves of it, because so much of the work is coronavirus related
[20:09:23] <chromas> heh
[20:09:27] <guy_> she'll stop turning her computer off, LOL
[20:09:44] <chromas> Now you can use her bonus to stock up on extra RTXs
[20:10:00] <guy_> 4 out of 5 clients were running coronavirus when I showed it to her
[20:10:06] <chromas> Or to pay the bill for running f@h
[20:10:20] <guy_> LOL, she has complained about electricity
[20:10:47] <chromas> Do you know how much folding increased your bill?
[20:10:47] <guy_> women are a lot more fun when they're young and naive
[20:11:02] <guy_> well SHE SAYS a hundred bucks
[20:11:08] <guy_> but she exaggerates a lot
[20:11:29] <guy_> I think it's about thirty bucks
[20:12:48] <FatPhil> I hope you're folding for the SN team! :)

[20:21:06] <FatPhil> if that's what you call those sordid sessions behind the vestry, then yes.
[20:21:50] <kyonko_> problem is modern science is unintelligible
[20:21:57] <kyonko_> this is why you need to stick to 19th century science
[20:22:19] <kyonko_> is it dies or is it photolithography?
[20:22:32] <kyonko_> ever heard of the tiniest lever that could?
[20:23:09] <kyonko_> I had to get involved with obamacare around age 29 or so, and looking back, might as well have gone into faith healing
[20:23:47] <kyonko_> now the government has deemed me healthy
[20:24:00] <kyonko_> i'm healthy because of modern chemistry and daily rituals
[20:24:19] <FatPhil> better living through modern chemistry, eh?
[20:24:31] <kyonko_> yeah
[20:24:33] <kyonko_> sort of
[20:24:33] <guy_> cannabis?
[20:24:37] <kyonko_> more like flowers for algernon
[20:24:39] <FatPhil> that's a euphemism for MDMA if I've ever heard one
[20:25:07] <kyonko_> I suffer from OCD
[20:25:12] <kyonko_> a plethora of shit in the DSM
[20:25:27] <kyonko_> I have rituals that actually do something, keep me alive, healthy and strong
[20:26:02] <kyonko_> so with access to all my medical records, the social security administration has deemed me recovered and fit
[20:26:23] <guy_> OCD is something I've never been able to relate to, it's way outside my experience
[20:26:31] <kyonko_> you don't have it
[20:26:35] <kyonko_> I also have alcoholism
[20:26:41] <kyonko_> does everyone have alcoholism, lol no
[20:26:48] <guy_> that's something I can sort of relate to
[20:26:53] <kyonko_> the criteria for the disease of alcholism has been established for centuries
[20:26:56] <guy_> I'm addicted to caffiend and nicotine
[20:27:07] <kyonko_> I gave up nicotine
[20:27:25] <kyonko_> I had too
[20:27:50] <kyonko_> now if my heart fails from caffeine, well a doctor is going to be compassionate about that compared to doing IV meth
[20:28:46] <kyonko_> it clearly is not a flat earth/young earth/7 days/jewish creation cosmology universe

[21:20:51] <kyonko_> its as if determined since the big bang
[21:21:36] <kyonko_> I've used free will, because I have it, to deny human beings from being conceived from my own genetics
[21:21:41] <kyonko_> this is such power
[21:22:08] <FatPhil> it's not a heritable characteristic though

[21:31:49] <kyonko_> branches and forks of the timeline
[21:31:52] <Bytram> Lacking the physical mastery I saw in others, and also somewhat lacking in social graces, brought on in no small part to my lack in the realm of physical stature, I would not have pursued my science and mathematical abilities with as much vigor as I did.

[21:39:34] <kyonko_> unless, the predictable nature of the cosmos changes
[21:40:25] <kyonko_> friends are for children
[21:41:15] <Bytram> I've lived alone for 15 years. I have made countless friends. If there is any distance in a relationship, it is mostly of my choosing and making, as I still at times struggle in social situations.
[21:41:39] <kyonko_> I really don't have social problems, but it is complicated
[21:41:50] <kyonko_> between men, well, no pregnancy will occur
[21:41:59] <kyonko_> between women, pregnancy will occur
[21:42:33] <kyonko_> get too friendly with your own sex
[21:42:37] <kyonko_> sex happens
[21:42:37] <Bytram> I do not perceive a need for a relationship to make me "whole". I may well be unusual in that regard.
[21:42:38] <kyonko_> ;)
[21:42:59] <kyonko_> well, I do, but I controlled it

[21:46:31] <kyonko_> bye
[21:46:42] <boru> I'm celebrating with some Redbreast; I've got the guts of an FDML post after a few hours of hacking around with some hardware.
[21:46:49] <kyonko_> I enjoyed myself on facebook for 5 years in the atheism and nihilism groups
[21:47:16] <kyonko_> but.... I saw the forest for the trees, I was the product
[21:47:42] <kyonko_> most normal people can't talk about religion
[21:47:42] <FatPhil> boru: wow, that would be amazing if you could. I really ought to visit the emerald isle again though...
[21:47:46] <kyonko_> even if they are trans sexual
[21:48:14] <boru> I'll send you a bottle of all of West Mayo Brewery's stuff when I get back. It's all far better on draught, naturally.
[21:48:42] <boru> If ever you're in Murrisk in Mayo, go to The Tavern, and ask them for a pint of Clew Bay Sunset.
[21:48:54] <boru> That's hands down my favourite red ale.
[21:49:17] <kyonko_> I can't drink, 2 is never enough
[21:49:23] <boru> The brewery only supplies draught to a few pubs in the West of Ireland.
[21:49:53] <kyonko_> they say average woman can only have 1 drink
[21:50:07] <boru> You a fan of porter?
[21:50:16] <kyonko_> I drank poison
[21:50:31] <chromas> is that a mean woman or a median woman?
[21:50:33] <kyonko_> alcohol wasn't enjoyable for me
[21:50:53] <kyonko_> chromas: well, consider humans have severe sexual dimorphism
[21:50:55] <FatPhil> oooh - this one sounds fun: https://www.ratebeer.com
[21:50:57] <kyonko_> unless its japan
[21:51:16] <kyonko_> I'm fascinated by japan, a modern society by people with my body type
[21:51:53] <boru> You can visit their brewery in Islandeady. It's down this donkey track just outside the town. You drive for ~20 minutes, the occasional farm and barn either side, then you come to a dead end, and that's where the brewery is.
[21:51:59] <kyonko_> I wonder how much is true that norwegians don't have sexual dimorphism
[21:52:15] <boru> I like malty porter, so I like that one.
[21:52:17] <kyonko_> donkey track?
[21:52:27] <kyonko_> is this for donkey fitness?
[21:52:32] <boru> You'll get cheap cases directly from the brewery.
[21:52:49] <kyonko_> I can't see a donkey in the flesh without giggling
[21:54:27] <FatPhil> kyonko_: I know loads of Norwegians, and their genetic close kin, and they almost all have very clear sexual dimorphism.
[21:54:49] <FatPhil> boru: huge malt fan myself - beer is a malt drink. Roasting only improves things!
[21:55:16] <boru> Sound. I know what to send you, then.
[21:55:37] <kyonko_> all the women who ever approached me sexually were of my own height and weight
[21:55:43] <kyonko_> real bizarre
[21:56:03] <kyonko_> how long before you breed away sexual dimorphism in humans?
[21:56:31] <kyonko_> because you know when a woman wants you
[21:56:58] <kyonko_> regarding homosexuality, no harm no foul, with a slight chance of AIDS
[21:57:36] <kyonko_> its rare that a woman will sleep with a man who has had sex with other men
[21:57:53] <FatPhil> sexual dimorphism will probably disappear when Y itself disappears. It's been shrinking for millennia now, and that pattern has been repeated in other species until it actually disappears.
[21:58:18] <FatPhil> (geneticists are requested not to correct me on the above)
[21:58:45] <kyonko_> you mean cats?
[21:59:11] <FatPhil> My favourite genetics joke: Being female means not having to say "I'm SRY".
[22:00:49] <kyonko_> women are so darwinian
[22:02:33] <FatPhil> cats still have the bollock gene on their Y, so are like us.
[22:03:04] <FatPhil> (geneticists ..., consider yourself pre-slapped if you even thought about responding)
[22:04:59] <kyonko_> geneticists aren't on irc
[22:05:04] <kyonko_> they are living a good life
[22:06:21] <kyonko_> MD isn't what it used to be
[22:07:17] <kyonko_> a geneticist these days is actually something with all the GMO

[22:07:29] <kyonko_> "dies"
[22:08:05] <kyonko_> before going to sleep I had wild visions of GMO plants
[22:08:11] <FatPhil> Triffids
[22:08:49] <kyonko_> the scary thing about GMO is that it is computationally intensive
[22:09:10] <kyonko_> how does japan handle its surplus population? not very well
[22:09:25] <FatPhil> tech is v. important to them for that reason
[22:09:31] <FatPhil> and they kinda like it
[22:09:32] <kyonko_> japan is very macho, japanese school girls don't become medcins sans frontiers
[22:09:50] <kyonko_> japanese school girls don't become anything
[22:10:18] <FatPhil> I've never seen one that became a ninja, at least
[22:10:28] <kyonko_> watch out for them chinpokomans
[22:10:35] <kyonko_> ling ling
[22:10:36] <chromas> Because they're invisible, duh
[22:10:46] <FatPhil> chromas-- don't explain the joke
[22:10:46] <Bender> karma - chromas: 282
[22:11:08] <chromas> oh, I mean I have
[22:11:15] <kyonko_> I met a chinese guy from manchuria on irc
[22:11:27] <kyonko_> he medically induces cancer in laboratory rabbits
[22:11:32] <chromas> Did he run for anything?
[22:12:04] <kyonko_> he grew up in huludao, manchuria
[22:12:19] <kyonko_> he said the early 1980's had a lot of mao money
[22:13:15] <kyonko_> I have no clue regarding eastern philosophy, I don't like the state of confusion
[22:14:04] <kyonko_> china never westernized
[22:16:01] <kyonko_> what was the news before corona crisis?
[22:16:06] <kyonko_> the twin girls who had HIV resistance?
[22:16:23] <kyonko_> HIV is only a gay disease
[22:16:25] <chromas> Protesters
[22:16:36] <kyonko_> yeah, but protestors are so 1776
[22:16:48] <kyonko_> GMO humans are now
[22:18:44] <kyonko_> ugh my mom showed me a video of a geezer on her smart phone
[22:18:54] <FatPhil> the lowest transmission rate of HIV is between lesbians. So it's as much a gay-proof disease as a gay disease.
[22:19:13] <chromas> Lesbians aren't gay tho
[22:19:16] <kyonko_> lesbianism is deeply psychological
[22:19:19] <FatPhil> (epidemiologists, you know the drill)
[22:19:37] <FatPhil> paging zuzu...
[22:20:16] <Cascade> We need more lesbians to cure the COVAIDS!
[22:20:23] <kyonko_> I'll be 50 years old and still living with my mom
