Jesus, what happened?  A murder?

QuoteI have learned that nobody, literally fucking nobody, can truly be trusted.

I feel that.  My reasons for agreeing with that are trivial in comparison, but I stand by my motto:  "A friend is someone who is not yet sufficiently motivated to fuck you over."

However, for the sake of your stomach lining, I'd advise finding something to keep you busy with other people.  I say this having myself been unable to do so when I got dumped on.  That happened only with time.  Lots of time.  I also do not say you should not be thinking about what you'd do, given the chance, because that's not going to happen and I don't really think it should.  I'm just saying diversify your available attention.

Nowadays, I don't care if the people involved live or die, but that took a few years.  And again, what happened to me is not even in the same ballpark as what I'm guessing happened to you.

Quote from: Faust on August 09, 2026, 02:04:16 PMPoliticians were able to adapt, and are courted by that loathsome group that say

"We will take care of you" like the human trafficking tate brothers and multiple others who get "cancelled" then become part of the a-team of the far rright. Conor Mcgregor in Ireland is the most blatant example we have here. Loses a civil case on rape, immediately runs for president on anti immigration policies

Its such a nasty insidious pipeline and rendered movements for social change vulnerable.

I hate using this comparison with Ellis. His behavior was scummy but nothing compared to these guys

Well, yeah.  He was a convention creeper, which is pathetic, but the Tate brothers were kidnappers, pimps, and possibly murderers.

McGregor is no different that Tate, except that he occasionally wins in a sport that appeals to degenerates.

So, remind me, did Ellis do anything improper, as opposed to just being icky?

Quote from: Faust on August 08, 2026, 09:25:44 AMYep, people have voted with their wallets.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, we got him"

The problem is I dont agree with the court of public opinion on this, and think the end result is stupid, and shit.

Quote from: MMIX on August 09, 2026, 08:39:00 AMYep. I love how we have become societies where we demand higher standards of personal behaviour from people who write comic books than from politicians and presidents or attorneys general . . .

Is anyone surprised?

The obscenely wealthy own the ball and the ballpark. You will not worry about billionaire pedophiles, you will follow the thundering herd of tumblristas against George Takei and Warren Ellis.

Never mind that Takei was exonerated when the person who complained basically admitted he was trying to make money off of the notoriety.

I don't see a problem with believing the victim first.  But eventually, I have to see some evidence.  If that evidence isn't forthcoming, then I start questioning the narrative.

I am told this makes me part of the problem, etc, etc, and why can't I wear a safety pin in my lapel to show my commitment to Sparkle Motion™?

If you bitch about politicos they use it to generate "sound and fury" and then get their "friends" to look the other way while they bank the profits that accrue. If you are a writer . . . well, ask Gaiman how good his "brand" is atm, and in your own words " from what I can see [Ellis's] comic career has dried up. "
My point is that for whatever reason there no longer seems to be any comeback on politicians. Maybe there never was and I'm just hankering for the good old days when actions and missteps had consequences . . .

We dont, but writers are easier targets. They do it to deserving billionairs who just laugh and spit in their face

I have learned that nobody, literally fucking nobody, can truly be trusted.  That the person you are the most absolutely sure of can, for no fucking reason at all, do the most utterly evil fucked up heinous shit to the ones you love.  I have learned that karma is a bullshit concept invented by idealistic fuckwits that lack perspective.  I have learned a lot from that fucking worm, and I desperately want to show him what I've learned.

It's just, maximum fucked.

And everyone tells me they can see the despair and grief on my face every day but they're wrong.

There's probably a huge pile of emotions underneath but on top of all of them, overriding them all, drowning everything else out, is heavy powerful rage.

The calm, slow, considered, depressed appearance is not sadness, it's control.  Because what is inside of here is murderous.

I've never ever considered revenge justified.  I've never believed in it, and viewed it as petty.

I have changed my mind.  If a certain scumbag murderer were not already locked away and safe from me, I absolutely would kill him and I would take my time doing it.

I know it's not healthy to fantasize about torturing another human being as often as I do, and it kills me that I have let him change me so completely, and I recognize that my thoughts these days would have horrified the innocent fucking moron I was before, but there is nothing else in life I want more than for that one specific piece of shit to suffer horribly and then die.

Unfortunately, Wisconsin does not have the death penalty.  Which is something I used to be proud of, and now really regret.

High Weirdness / Re: Still Think "Skynet" Is On...
Last post by Abbot Mythos - August 08, 2026, 05:08:14 PM
I'm sure "Skynet," or whatever it is eventually named, will make use of this:


As per this article:

"Scientists have used artificial intelligence to design complete, functioning viruses with genomes never seen before in nature — a breakthrough that could open new avenues for fighting drug-resistant bacterial infections."

Given the primitiveness of human nature, "complete, functioning viruses with genomes never seen before in nature" will be utilized for far less noble purposes.

And so, the Great Filter has acquired another new feature.
