So freaking done with FB disco shit. It was liberating, refreshing really, to close the groups and just see friends in my feed again. Also much more time for PD.com, where people treat people right!

Life can be seen as a game with no reset button, no extra lives, and if the power goes out there is no restarting.  If that's all you see life as you are not long for this world, and never will get it.

Seriously. It was fun for a bit and I did meet some cool people, but holy shit it's just too much of a clusterfuck and has too many people who seem to think hurting other people makes them cool.

Camping was fun. I indulged in a number of mind-altering substances and stayed up until dawn. I'm almost back to normal now though, which is good because first day of school, squeee!!!

The problem with TDS and to a lesser extent TDS2014 is that they are unmoderated. 

So you have monkeys trying to see just how far they can push it.  It's more harmful to them than to any of us...But it's what they wanted.

When I first looked I to Discordianism, before I ever posted here, I came to expect amoral retards. My sources were not necessarily incorrect but shallow and incomplete. The fact that I just popped in here and LEARNED was a bit of kismet I think.

The dam broke when TDS went down. No tactics changed on tds2014 and the hordes of trolls went strategically unopposed. There was not much to stay for... so done. AND FEELING FINE!!  :)

Yeah, TDS has gone right down the drain in terms of quality of discussion since TDS went bye-bye or whatever happened to it (I don't know, and more importantly, don't care).  At TDS2014, you could at least occasionally get a decent discussion, even if you had to start it yourself and filter out about 25% of the comments, but lately it's been overrun by 3edgy5me 4chan rejects (contrary to popular opinion, you can actually still have civilized discussions on 4chan...which is more than can be said for TDS2014).

I realise many of us were also major-league assholes, once upon a time (and many would argue we haven't changed since), but I like to think our methods and techniques were more refined, subtle and ultimately effective than whatever this pack of losers is trying to accomplish.

Hamish Howl is no longer, on Facebook.

Mike Martin ratted me out for my fake name, using his own fake account.  So I reported that account, and it's gone.

Now, Mike isn't his real name.  Mikael is.  Anyone care to report him for using a fake name?

It'd be my pleasure.  Unfortunately, I'm not on under my real name either....might be able to do it under my real account, though.  Just checking, this is him, yeah?

Oh, and for Nigel...Here is the valiant white nationalist hero who preaches about "faggots" all day:

I've seen that asshat. He was one of the first signs of real trouble. He got banned Since then he's been using socks if he's been around at all. Not sure if what Howl was looking for.
