[00:58:22] <Subsentient> There's something wrong with me that I find the return of APK.... slightly funny
[00:58:28] <Subsentient> Fucking nutjob
[00:58:45] <Subsentient> And people call me crazy
[01:19:14] -!- AzumaHazuki [AzumaHazuki!~hazuki@the.end.of.time] has joined #soylent
[01:19:44] <Subsentient> AzumaHazuki: My condolences on the return of APK
[01:20:34] <AzumaHazuki> i don't even care on its own merits, i'm just sorry you all have to deal with him
[01:21:05] <AzumaHazuki> just wondering though, why does he think pointing out my real name--which is known on SN and is listed on my profile--is in any way threatening?
[01:22:51] <Subsentient> AzumaHazuki: Well, he's schizophrenic and clearly delusional, I wouldn't even try to fathom his thought process. It probably makes about as much sense as squirting mustard into a toaster.
[01:23:02] <AzumaHazuki> yyyyup
[01:23:36] <AzumaHazuki> JMH is nuts too. Apparently i am some sort of disinformation agent planted on SN specifically to cause people to commit suicide. How, exactly?
[01:24:15] <Subsentient> I wonder if there's a reason all the crazies end up gravitating to hard-right conspiracy theories
[01:24:19] <AzumaHazuki> because for real, if I could MAKE people commit suicide...well, Mike Pence would long since have been found strangled in a hotel room on a dog leash with two giant purple dildos in him and wearing black lace thighhighs
[01:24:53] <Subsentient> If I could, Kim Jong Un would have lathered himself naked in BBQ sauce and jumped into the dog pit he threw his uncle into
[01:25:56] <Subsentient> I'm bi so I'm no fan of Pence either, but I just view those types of religious nutjobs as lost causes, more something to be pitied and annoyed by than something to be hated.
[01:26:13] <Subsentient> Just don't like them having power !!
[01:27:06] <AzumaHazuki> basically this nut thinks I have a Death Note
[01:27:23] <AzumaHazuki> if i did, then for damn sure no one would find out about it! not until i'd gotten rid of everyone necessary anyway
[01:27:57] <AzumaHazuki> and i wouldn't showboat or screw around like Yagami Light did either. Just spend one long night coming up with ideas and then writing them in assembly-line style
[01:28:48] <Subsentient> Same. Though first I'd see if I can put a class of people in angle brackets, e.g. <filthy rich oligarchs actively seeking to impoverish the working class>

[02:56:52] <nutherguy> Grandkids came by this evening.
[02:57:20] <nutherguy> When they came into the house, I smelled the scent of dead leaves and forest detritus
[02:57:41] <nutherguy> First visual impression was, granddaughter was tatooed from thigh to ankle
[02:57:55] <nutherguy> Strange - you don't let kids get tats!!
[02:58:23] <nutherguy> Turns out, they invented some kind of "tattoo dye" from whatever they dug up in the woods
[02:59:24] <nutherguy> Other little girl twirled around a couple times, backside of her knees a bunch of whorls from the dirt she was kneeling in
[02:59:41] <nutherguy> Brings back memories of my own kids . . .
[03:00:01] <nutherguy> Glad I don't have to bathe all those kids, LOL - looked like a two-hour chore
[03:01:10] <nutherguy> Alternatively, send them out to sleep with the dogs?
[03:01:22] <nutherguy> Nahhh - mothers don't go for that kind of thing.
[03:02:47] <AzumaHazuki> i hope like hell your children are an improvement on you
[03:04:12] <nutherguy> One of them is - he's a much better asshole than I am
[03:04:28] <nutherguy> hardheaded little fuck, you can't force him to do ANYTHING
[03:05:18] <nutherguy> resisted all of the SJW indoctrination of 5 years of college
[03:05:34] <nutherguy> got his concealed carry permit two days after it was legal to carry on campus
[03:05:42] <nutherguy> rides a mean-assed bike
[03:06:22] <nutherguy> I probably shouldn't mention the bad-ass women he uhhhh - is "rides" a demeaning term?
[03:06:27] <nutherguy> ROFLMAO
[03:12:14] <nutherguy> AzumaHazuki
[03:12:38] <nutherguy> I need pointers on good mysogenistic replies to some old skank asking me for money
[03:12:54] <AzumaHazuki> i doubt the first part of that sentence entirely
[03:12:54] <nutherguy> Calls herself a "doctor", Jill Biden or some such
[03:13:23] <nutherguy> She and an entire corps of losers keep sending me emails asking for funds
[03:13:38] <AzumaHazuki> have you considered a spam filter?
[03:13:51] <AzumaHazuki> you could also drop the computer in the bathtub while it's on
[03:14:16] <nutherguy> Nahhhh, I amuse myself with sending insulting replies - but I'm not as mysogenistic as most Dems are
[03:14:29] <nutherguy> I figured a liberal like yourself could help
[03:14:39] <AzumaHazuki> you can't even spell "misogynistic" right, you inbred moron 9_9
[03:15:35] <nutherguy> When I feel like it, I can spall, errr, spyle, or whatever the fuck
[03:15:59] <AzumaHazuki> this whole little play fell flatter than an armadillo on a six-lane highway
[03:16:24] <AzumaHazuki> the saddest part of all is, in my estimation, is that you actually think you're witty.
[03:16:40] <nutherguy> Whatever, you kicked it off insulting my brats and their brats and all the little brats into perpetuity
[03:17:13] <AzumaHazuki> no, i said i hoped they were an improvement on you. that is leaving open the possibility that I won't HAVE to insult them
[03:17:49] <nutherguy> Well, my answer was honest - the one I'm proudest of is a helluva lot like me
[03:17:57] <AzumaHazuki> no surprise there
[03:18:07] <AzumaHazuki> oh well...maybe you'll meet one another in Hell
[03:18:56] <nutherguy> Probly not. With all the dead communists, progressives, and genuine fascists and Nazis, I expect that they've hung out the "no vacancy" sign
[03:19:12] <AzumaHazuki> that took you a while :)
[03:19:33] <AzumaHazuki> remember...Hell is within. anyone in it is burning from within. it's not a place, it's a state
[03:19:58] <AzumaHazuki> and if the apple really hasn't fallen far from the tree, well...
[03:20:33] <nutherguy> People like us are the ones people like you call when they can't deal with shit on their own
[03:20:55] <nutherguy> Hollywood makes movies about people like us
[03:20:58] <AzumaHazuki> yup, right on schedule...the line is "you want the truth? YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!"
[03:21:18] <nutherguy> Why tell you what you already know?
[03:21:45] <AzumaHazuki> something about being the guy on the wall, etc etc. please. the only reason i don't accuse you of stolen valor is if you ever got your hands on any it'd burn you like holy water on a vampire
[03:21:48] <AzumaHazuki> and for about the same reason
[03:22:05] <nutherguy> I piss holy water
[03:22:19] <AzumaHazuki> senile old fool...
[03:22:49] <nutherguy> Oh well, I gave you an opportunity to be witty and amusing
[03:22:52] <nutherguy> later
[03:23:01] <AzumaHazuki> well, as it is said..."let him who is filthy, be filthy still." you won't and can't change. best run while you can
[03:23:40] <nutherguy> Hey! You could move to Baltimore, and vote for Kimberly Klacik!
[03:23:42] <AzumaHazuki> but remember: the reaper is always just a step behind. that trapdoor is going to open under you, sooner rather than later...and then, like Lucy, you will have some 'splainin' to do.

[03:24:13] <nutherguy> Grimm and I are on first name basis
[03:24:41] <AzumaHazuki> you will be in a few years yes
[03:25:34] <AzumaHazuki> regarding that video, all i'll say is reversing cause and effect is a very common fallacy in the...thinking, i will charitably call it...your kind engage in. Nordic nations are far to the left of the Democrats and have no such issues.
[03:26:05] <nutherguy> Could it be that Democrats aren't very far left of Nazi Germany?
[03:26:23] <AzumaHazuki> the corporate ones, no. they're basically Reagan Republicans
[03:26:24] <nutherguy> It has often been pointed out that we have two rights in America, there is no left
[03:26:40] <AzumaHazuki> Indeed. Ocasio-Cortes and Sanders are centrists by the standards of any civilized nation
[03:26:52] <nutherguy> So a bunch of D Nazis trying to pass off their agenda as Socialist just don't cut it
[03:27:16] <AzumaHazuki> you realize, though, that this undercuts your tribal idiocy? effectively, you have said there are simply two versions of your tribe at the levers of power
[03:27:30] <AzumaHazuki> in other words, some variant or another of your "thinking" is what lead to this
[03:27:44] <nutherguy> I've said no such thing - the D Nazis want to adopt some of the strategies of the Communists
[03:27:50] <AzumaHazuki> you really ought to plan this sort of thing better, Runaway
[03:28:35] <nutherguy> If you're smart enough to know there are two right wings in American politics, why do you cheer for the D wing?
[03:28:49] <AzumaHazuki> also i seem to remember you saying that only an actual Nazi is a Nazi, that even the people flying the Nazi flag and heiling Hitler aren't "Nazi enough." All of them are Republican voters.
[03:29:08] <AzumaHazuki> if they are not Nazis despite flying the flag and doing the salute, it follows that the Democrats are even less so
[03:29:39] <nutherguy> Follows nothing - how about Antifa attacking a man for defending a tranny being robbed?
[03:29:54] <nutherguy> fekking fascists didn't like him because he's white?
[03:30:04] <nutherguy> because he was driving a pickup truck?
[03:30:08] <AzumaHazuki> stick to one topic at a time, will you? this constant dodging is a poor look for you. it makes it look like you're just throwing random shit at the wall to see what'll stick
[03:30:13] <nutherguy> because he didn't kneel and kiss their asses?
[03:30:23] <nutherguy> It all sticks
[03:30:30] <AzumaHazuki> yes, to your fingers :)
[03:31:10] <nutherguy> What I know is, those rioters need to look down the end of a shotgun as it goes off
[03:31:32] <AzumaHazuki> if you think this entire forum hasn't figured you out, you're delusional to the point of psychosis. you are a frightened, half-senile, pants-wetting old has-been on the verge of apoplexy from your own stupidity
[03:31:39] <nutherguy> They'll see God greeting them to their deserved heaven
[03:31:55] <AzumaHazuki> look at you here, just foaming at the mouth to see people getting blown way with a shotgun
[03:32:09] <AzumaHazuki> i'm trying to imagine the state you're in right now and can't do it
[03:32:24] <nutherguy> Keep telling yourself whatever allows you to sleep at night
[03:32:43] <AzumaHazuki> there are lots of people like you out there. it's its own little tribe in its own right
[03:33:26] <nutherguy> Watch Kim again, she demonstrates how wrong the whole D party is
[03:33:40] <AzumaHazuki> what is it like to be this constantly frightened, angry, and hopeless?
[03:34:06] <AzumaHazuki> for all that i've suffered i at least have a plan and am putting it into action with a clear head. all you're doing is spinning your wheels until the axles smoke
[03:34:56] <nutherguy> Your plan involves running away, and abandoning everything, right?
[03:35:09] <AzumaHazuki> yes, why? seems like a smart move
[03:35:13] <nutherguy> Great plan - but I was the runaway, and I know it doesn't work all that well
[03:35:38] <AzumaHazuki> you were never able to run away from the root cause of your problems is why
[03:36:08] <nutherguy> LOL, the cops kept dragging me back home to the root cause of my problems
[03:36:26] <AzumaHazuki> you're just about retirement age and haven't realized this yet...you are your problem. you are your own worst enemy. your actions lead to those events.
[03:36:47] <nutherguy> Just about retirement age - and I'm at peace with myself
[03:37:03] <AzumaHazuki> you don't sound at peace with yourself. or anything else
[03:37:17] <AzumaHazuki> if you were, you'd be a lot less angry and hostile
[03:37:18] <nutherguy> I'm not at peace with the enemies of my country
[03:37:39] <AzumaHazuki> fool. you are being used by the enemies of your country and dancing to their tune.
[03:38:09] <nutherguy> the enemies are throwing fire bombs at the Federal building, and beating honest men and women to death
[03:38:20] <nutherguy> shooting little kids playig in their yards
[03:38:35] <AzumaHazuki> having orders to follow is not peace. ceasing to think critically is not peace. sitting down in the middle of the road and plugging your ears is not peace.
[03:38:44] <AzumaHazuki> the word for this is "stagnation"
[03:39:02] <AzumaHazuki> also, weren't you leaving like a half hour ago?
[03:39:06] <nutherguy> stagnation is what we're doing with all those liberal activist judges
[03:39:20] <AzumaHazuki> ...whoooooa boy, here we go 9_9
[03:39:41] <nutherguy> something wrong with your eyes?
[03:39:55] <AzumaHazuki> by definition, if they are activist, they are doing the opposite of stagnating; they are changing things
[03:40:28] <AzumaHazuki> you don't know what words mean any longer. they appear to have meanings known only to you at this point. you sound like you've had a stroke.
[03:40:52] <nutherguy> LMAO
[03:41:08] <nutherguy> you're like a cracked record
[03:41:29] <AzumaHazuki> we can quibble over prescriptivist versus descriptivist theories another time; the fact is, if you use words in ways most people don't and expect to be understood, You're Gonna Have A Bad Time
[03:42:06] <nutherguy> Look at Detroit, look at Baltimore - those cities have been stagnating for fifty years
[03:42:30] <nutherguy> stagnation and rot handed to us by activist leftist judges and politicians
[03:42:39] <AzumaHazuki> because of...activist judges...*puts down bingo chip on card* changing things. i see.
[03:43:04] <nutherguy> Democrats, all of them
[03:43:31] <AzumaHazuki> and this could not possibly have anything to do with, for example, the last 40 years of voodoo economics, offshoring and outsourcing, and so forth?
[03:43:31] <nutherguy> Well, I can't forget about the Rinos who contribute to the rot
[03:44:07] <nutherguy> None of that explains why gang warfare rules the streets in these cities
[03:44:11] <AzumaHazuki> ah, yes. enemies around every corner. you must purge the party of all unbelievers. wipe your chin, you're dribbling
[03:45:41] <AzumaHazuki> tell you what: rather than waste time spraying virtual spittle all over an obscure chat room, why not write your elected representatives with your...complaints?

[03:50:00] <AzumaHazuki> i think he's done
[03:50:37] <AzumaHazuki> he seems a little frustrated. about a great many things. right now, though, mostly over not getting a rise out of me :)
[03:50:41] <TheMightyBuzzard> just as well, i don't think i have much more consciousness in me. neighbors was feeling rather neighborly tonight.
[03:51:50] <TheMightyBuzzard> sat out in their front yard drinking liquor the past four hours or so. about 4x as much as i'll normally drink on a drinking night
[03:52:41] <TheMightyBuzzard> AzumaHazuki, well how's he going to get a rise out of you anyway, you're not physically equipped
[03:53:13] <AzumaHazuki> you don't know womens' anatomy too well do you? :) it's not as obvious, but on arousal we get *three* rises
[03:53:45] <TheMightyBuzzard> true but not nearly as distinctly noticeable
[03:53:52] <AzumaHazuki> in fact, the male's penis is analogous to and develops from the clitoris. ...except it has only half the nerve endings and hangs outside the body over an ugly bag of chicken skin
[03:53:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> specially at his age when he prolly needs glasses.
[03:54:00] <AzumaHazuki> because intelligent design! :D
[03:54:34] <TheMightyBuzzard> bah, you just don't appreciate the wonders that are testicles
[03:55:02] <AzumaHazuki> i know any designer that makes half its creations have to hold their gonads outside the main body for fear of overheating sucks at design

[03:55:50] <TheMightyBuzzard> nah, the overheating thing was dealt with by location. the down side is awe.... fuck.... *dies*

[03:58:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> saw a black feller over in the trailer part of town whizzing round the side of his house while i was on the way to the state's best burger joint earlier. i was like "right on, brother"
[03:58:56] <TheMightyBuzzard> nice to see someone besides the old friend of mine what came and crashed on the couch for a few months pissing outside
[04:00:50] <TheMightyBuzzard> holy crap, the town the state's best burgers come from has less people than my home town in OK. 2458 back in 2018
[04:02:12] <TheMightyBuzzard> they really are pretty epic too. we try to make the 15 mile trip there once a week and pay $15 (post-covid-beef-shortage) for a burger
[04:04:19] <TheMightyBuzzard> bacon double (half pound patties) cheeseburger, add jalapenos, no condiments
[04:05:50] <TheMightyBuzzard> so juicy you'd think it was a gay chick at a nudie bar
[04:19:35] <TheMightyBuzzard> hey, AzumaHazuki, you see that crosby, stills, nash, and sexual chocolate shit at the DNC convention?
[04:20:22] <AzumaHazuki> no, i haven't been following
[04:20:43] <AzumaHazuki> as runaway alluded to, i've stopped caring. i hope biden wins merely to give me some extra time to get out of here
[04:20:47] <TheMightyBuzzard> youtube that shit, it's fucking sick and wrong
[04:20:54] <TheMightyBuzzard> and hilarious
[04:21:18] <AzumaHazuki> none of this is funny any longer. US politics is a clownshow, one written by Stephen King
[04:21:27] <AzumaHazuki> and it has been since long before i was born
[04:21:42] <TheMightyBuzzard> don't put sexual chocolate in the search string. that's just what dude reminded me of when TR made me watch it.
[04:22:09] <AzumaHazuki> i have no idea what a sexual chocolate is, though i imagine it's higher grade than hershey's

[04:35:14] <joepublic> So, given that I am depressive, I am by (their) definition also psychotic? Nice.
[04:36:50] <AzumaHazuki> i saw that article...the gist of it is, depression is very often comorbid with psychosis
[04:37:22] <AzumaHazuki> given how the drugs to treat schizophrenia work, this is not entirely surprising...
[04:38:36] <joepublic> It would be swell to browse at -1 but disinclude comments marked spam
[04:39:05] <TheMightyBuzzard> mostly it's not surprising because head shrinkers are barely beyond phrenology in their area of study
[04:39:41] <TheMightyBuzzard> joepublic, you can assign modifiers to any comment based on its current moderation in your user settings
[04:39:59] <TheMightyBuzzard> like if you want Insightful to be -5, rock on you
[04:40:43] <TheMightyBuzzard> marking everything but spam up one and marking spam -5 will solve the issue
[04:40:53] <joepublic> Thanks.
[04:41:04] <TheMightyBuzzard> but i'm starting back coding anti-douchebag-spammer stuff tomorrow morning
[04:41:48] <TheMightyBuzzard> putting off important church remodeling because i hate the shit out of spammers
[04:43:03] <joepublic> important societal remodeling, sounds like then
[04:44:07] <TheMightyBuzzard> works for me, as long as i don't have to keep manually banning his ips
[04:44:34] <joepublic> No, that approach sounds kind like killing a mound full of ants with a hammer.
[04:44:45] <pinchy> funny + spam = ?
[04:45:06] <TheMightyBuzzard> pinchy, chromas
[04:45:37] <pinchy> how long does the regex filter work?
[04:45:41] <pinchy> one per artikle?
[04:46:30] <TheMightyBuzzard> joepublic, feels like it too. and i got 21 new addresses to ban since this morning. which ain't happening because i'm drunk and should not be touching admin stuff.
[04:46:58] <TheMightyBuzzard> naw, global per comment or per subject pcres
[04:47:44] <pinchy> why not cat and mouse on the text posted instead of ip?
[04:48:14] <TheMightyBuzzard> easier for bots. catch the first one and you can shortcut the rest from that address.
[04:49:00] <TheMightyBuzzard> and if you can catch the first one from a bot, you can catch them all from that bot no matter what address it comes from.
[04:50:15] <TheMightyBuzzard> i'm being very thorough and attempting to do it proper like and efficiently though. i'm lazy and don't want to have to pay attention to stupid nonsense.
[04:50:57] <AzumaHazuki> sounds like...almost like...like free speech has limits? like the forum is more enjoyable with more than the smallest possible number of up-front restrictions?

[04:52:17] <TheMightyBuzzard> yeah, it is. we censor noise rather than disagreement though, which is pretty important.
[04:52:32] <AzumaHazuki> but who decides what's noise and what's disagreement?
[04:53:05] <joepublic> To address this, perhaps all the removed spam posts should simply be moved to a different location where people can read them if they wish. I suggest perhaps alpha centauri.
[04:53:13] <TheMightyBuzzard> me mostly. my standard is if it has something to do with the article or the thread, it's probably not spam unless it's repetitive.
[04:53:42] <TheMightyBuzzard> we don't remove em, just ban the ip the spam post came from
[04:54:22] <joepublic> That's vaguely disappointing :)
[04:54:22] <TheMightyBuzzard> auto-collapse of spam modded comments is high on the todo list though
[04:55:21] <TheMightyBuzzard> scuse me, very high. top three.

[17:57:03] <carny_> either that or he's friends with executives at goodyear's competition
[17:58:27] <joepublic> I'd like to see all references to "Trump said in a tweet" and "Trump retweeted" replaced with "Trump said in a published statement" in the media covering his reign as president.
[17:59:04] <joepublic> if Twitter is absolutely relevant, then "Trump said in a statement published on the Twitter microblogging platform"
[17:59:36] <joepublic> This preference would go for any president, not just this one, I hasten to add.
[18:01:26] <joepublic> If the president is going to issue published statements, treat them as such and quit making it more about where he chooses to publishing them than about what they say.
[18:04:29] <joepublic> </rant>
[18:07:30] <carny_> if you go that far why not also say that all politicians are liable for untrue statements they publish?
[18:08:17] <joepublic> That's kind of the point, to judge the statements on their own merit, rather than say "ah it was just a tweet, boys will be boys in the locker room" etc.
[18:08:41] <carny_> right i agree
[18:08:50] <AndyTheAbsurd> How about just "in an informal statement" for things that are not specifically coming from official communication channels or official appearances?
[18:09:02] <carny_> but let's also make them accountable for lying
[18:09:25] <joepublic> if the duly elected president of the united states of america takes the trouble to publish something, it's a formal statement, regardless of his literacy skills.
[18:09:50] <joepublic> and certainly by definition it's "a published statement" by virtue of being a statement, that was published.
[18:11:23] <joepublic> If, say, a sitting president calls for an unprovoked boycott in an attack on a major US company, for example, that should be the news, not "Trump is tweeting again"
[18:23:08] <joepublic> You know that "informal statement" business is growing on me in spite of myself

[21:47:30] <FatPhil> to correct myself - if he considers his pronouncements to be said by himself in his capacity as president, then yes, they are official statements no matter what medium they are propagated via.
