Nooooooo that’s totally unlikely. It’s probably just for our best!

Yeah sure, I forgot everything is binary. My bad.

I have the time to do this and it surely couldn’t hurt OP more than others did. And it made an intellectually superior being, like you, have fun. Well worth my time 😁
- Comment on Daily Affirmation 18 hours ago:
Everyone with exceptions. Add people who are toxic to others to that exceptions. Or try to flood them with love in hope to cure their toxicity. Your choice.
And surely it’s not just black and white but gradual. You might be mildly toxic due to other toxic people and just haven’t reflected enough yet. Or you might be a cesspool of hate and poison, way beyond the point of possible repair.
I surely can’t fit all this into a simple formula. It’s a general guideline. And if it’s shit to you then just ignore and make up your own 😊

“I’m 12 and this is deep” would be a nice subreddit for this crap bordering incel-dogma.
Sorry, but everyone (except pedos, murderers and the likes) deserves to be loved. There is no international norm nor measure of love-worthyness. And it surely wouldn’t be defined by your face, your income, your schlongsize, your height or your whatever.
Just because there are legions of ugly (inside) people who define your worth based solely on above mentioned criteria, doesn’t mean there aren’t solid people out there who don’t. It just gets tiresome, sorting out the bad raisins. And if you’re absolutely adamant that you’re ugly inside too (which is probably just the work of others): be the change you want to see in this world, or be a pussy and give up.
Stop frequenting sites/people who pamper your already skewed worldview and drag you deeper into THEIR void…avoid toxic people by all means. No matter who they are.

Why the downvotes?
This beats political posts and also was, literally, a damn shitty post. And it was so incredibly dumb that it made me blow air out of my nose slightly faster than normal.
- Comment on Backing up Spotify 6 days ago:
Sure, I still have all physical media as a backup 😁 As for the NAS, I have a triple backup of it. I learned that the hard way a long time ago 😐
- Comment on Backing up Spotify 1 week ago:
Actually I would just be FLACing my records for convenience, as I did with my whole (SA)CD/BR-Archive. And yes, I do like Bandcamp. It’s really nice to discover indie-artists noone knows (yet). If the bands do make decent money there, I dunno. Hence I said “maybe bandcamp”.
- Comment on Backing up Spotify 1 week ago:
Who’s fault is it that there’s no fair systems one could use (except maybe bandcamp)? Not mine at least, I don’t use Spotify at all. I would not sell my music there if I would be an artist.
- Comment on ‘Invasive, deceptive, and unlawful’: Texas says your TV is tracking you illegally, and is suing to stop the dreaded Automatic Content Recognition 1 week ago:
Non USA here, so no best buy. Got a google-tv now with basically nothing on it, heavy firewalling that device off and using only jellyfin. I hate it but…
- Comment on ‘Invasive, deceptive, and unlawful’: Texas says your TV is tracking you illegally, and is suing to stop the dreaded Automatic Content Recognition 1 week ago:
Really sad. We could even save a good portion of bucks due to all the shit noone needs. I can only imagine the crap pre-installed on Samsung TVs or other of those horrible bloat-brands.
- Comment on Xmas at the mega church 1 week ago:
I pay way less taxes now, it’s literally a church-tax added on top of the other taxes. Unless you leave (which requires jumping some hoops) you’d pay. And we’re free though. Just if your parents are dumb enough to join you (“because everyone else does that too!”) at birth then that’s it. It’s as stupid as it sounds, yes. Germany btw.
- Comment on at what point in life it's too late to go back to school? 1 week ago:
Nah, family’s dead and was also poor. I was lucky to be an IT-guy when the net started and had my company until i got bored. As long as i have food and can support my hobbies, I don’t need much anyway :)
- Comment on ‘Invasive, deceptive, and unlawful’: Texas says your TV is tracking you illegally, and is suing to stop the dreaded Automatic Content Recognition 1 week ago:
I’d actually prefer a dumb TV, we only use jellyfin anyway and that could be served by some raspy or similar. But they’re extinct it seems. At least modern ones with 4 or 8k.
I hate this dumbing down of everything.
- Comment on at what point in life it's too late to go back to school? 1 week ago:
Because: For what it’s worth we all gonna need to work till 70+x anyway to afford retirement. And that’s a long time
Now that sounds really depressing. Workworkwork and when you’re finally free, you’re too old to really enjoy it all. I retired in my 20s, and now, 30yrs later I still don’t have enough time in a day to enjoy all hobbies. I couldn’t imagine having to wait until I’m 70. An unfair and shitty system 😞
- Comment on Xmas at the mega church 1 week ago:
Hell I’m in the South and I have queer friends that still go to southern baptist churches
Nothing to assume, it was just said. I see no reason for reevaluation.
- Comment on Xmas at the mega church 1 week ago:
Through taxes. You pay (I forgot how many) percent of your salary/income. So, very legal. Church makes a buttload of moneyz and still asks for spare change in mass 😂
- Comment on Xmas at the mega church 1 week ago:
Horrible indeed. Being force-joined into a cult. Where I live I was joined by my parents at birth (just because “it’s that way”, not because they were believers) and I had to PAY to leave that church officially much later. Incredible. I didn’t sign a contract or was at a legal age to do so, I wasn’t asked and couldn’t even speak anyway, yet I had to jump through a lot of hoops to get out of that contract 18yrs later.
At least in this country it’s without consequences (except saving a shitton of money) or social pressure. Other societies have it much worse :-(
- Comment on Xmas at the mega church 1 week ago:
I don’t even know what “real Christianity” should be. I, personally, hate cults of all kind from the depths of my heart.
This silly tribalism is most always just about cash, power and separating themselves from “the others”.
And just because a group of evil people have some “good” amongst them doesn’t make the whole system any less evil, and they, themselves, are also evil because they’re part of something evil, no matter how hard they try to be good people.
The argument “but it was just a job and I needed money, I don’t believe in any of it” was never a convincing reason to work at a concentration camp.
Nothing against belief though. Who am I to render a final judgment about the universe without even knowing a fraction of the facts. But joining a cult/religion is the bad thing here. It’s a virus that spreads by word.
- Comment on Xmas at the mega church 1 week ago:
That is one of the most despicable reasons to join a cult. “To be around people”. What about some sports club? Chess-meetings? Hobby-philantropist-gatherings, passionate-juggler-convention?
If I join a thing that is evil, I’m also evil.
And how a queer could even think about joining some cult is beyond me. That’s like a Jew joining the Nazis because there’s people.
Wasn’t it you guys that had this law during the rise of crips/bloods gangs, that if you’d join one of the gangs and someone else committed a felony, you were also guilty of it?
I’d rather be lonely than actively supporting an evil cause.

So inconceivably many mentally challenged people that join those “mega churches”…it’s beyond me. Why? What is wrong with muricans?

Oh thank God for teaching me, now I really don’t want lower prices. Phew, and it was so close to everything getting cheap again. Luck be praised!
