●● IRC: #techrights @ Techrights IRC Network: Wednesday, January 10, 2024 ●● ● Jan 10 [00:03] *Sompi (~sami@nwhxw49a2wuhs.irc) has joined #techrights [00:33] DaemonFC schestowitz: I don't even walk into Walmart that much because the police are standing there. [00:33] DaemonFC If I see one, I start getting ringing in my ears, light sensitivity, time distortion, sick to my stomach. [00:34] DaemonFC I have to focus to bring myself back out of it. [00:34] *DaemonFC gives voice to Sompi [00:34] DaemonFC I can hardly even shop for groceries anymore. [00:35] DaemonFC I go into Aldi sometimes if I can't get something in a pickup order at Walmart because they don't have police officers standing in the entrance. [00:35] DaemonFC Walmart is responding to a "shoplifting" problem by making their store look menacing and unwelcoming. [00:35] DaemonFC Then people go in and torch the place and steal TV sets anyway. [00:36] DaemonFC And now they have two cops and 3 security officers to pay. [00:50] DaemonFC I've heard that the most important thing with a stress disorder is to identify what triggers you, and then the second thing is to realize how to center yourself. I focus on my breathing, touch my fingers together and focus on that sensation, realize that to this guy I'm just background noise that he doesn't really "see" or "think about" much, and then I come back out of it and keep walking. [00:51] DaemonFC The brain tends to throw away and barely process anything that it doesn't find "interesting". So if you don't become interesting to someone, in a crowd of people, they don't really see you at all. [00:52] DaemonFC The worst thing you can do is be "interesting", and that includes being "visually loud". [00:52] DaemonFC So I wear darker colored clothing that's very subdued. [00:53] DaemonFC I like to drive older cars that the eye doesn't catch on. [00:53] DaemonFC Like, when you're driving around in a bright red or orange car, I see you. [00:54] DaemonFC When you have a silver Impala, not so much. [00:55] MinceR in traffic, it's helpful to be visible [00:55] MinceR so that people don't crash into your car :> [00:55] DaemonFC If there's 100 cars and 1 of them is bright red and has a really loud muffler, who is the cop looking at, most likely? [00:56] DaemonFC People do these things to make their cars really annoying. [00:56] DaemonFC Then they get pulled over all the time. [00:56] DaemonFC Like a guy Mandy works with. [00:56] MinceR it doesn't happen enough around here [00:56] DaemonFC He did a whole bunch of stupid riced out shit to a Honda. [00:57] DaemonFC And he gets pulled over and given tickets several times a year. [00:57] MinceR it seems the only thing cops care about here is speeding [00:57] MinceR it's easy [00:57] MinceR just sit in the car, scratch your nuts and see if the machine sees anyone speeding [00:57] MinceR a lot easier than doing actual work [00:58] DaemonFC MinceR: I have a route that I use to get from one end of town to the other. They can only put cameras facing two directions at a four way intersection. [00:58] MinceR why? [00:58] DaemonFC There's three four way intersections I can use to get home and they did not put the cameras on the same directions on all of them. [00:58] DaemonFC MinceR: Beats me. [00:59] DaemonFC So I go West on one route and East on another. [00:59] DaemonFC That way when I get to those intersections, the cameras are never facing me car. [00:59] DaemonFC If I accidentally run the light and get flashed, the camera will photograph the side of the car and miss the license plates. ● Jan 10 [01:44] DaemonFC MinceR: I made an appointment to donate blood next month. [01:44] DaemonFC That's new. [01:45] DaemonFC I would have sooner had I known it was even legal now. [01:45] DaemonFC The FDA used to ban you categorically for being a gay man. [01:45] MinceR so, they finally realized that gayness did not infect people via blood? [01:46] MinceR these christians sure learn quickly ● Jan 10 [02:04] DaemonFC Well, when it's that or dying I guess. [02:05] DaemonFC It turns out that there's no nanobots in my bloodstream that will assimilate you if you get some blood from me.

[05:33] DaemonFC One of the reasons black people have a much higher HIV/AIDS rate is actually because of their own culture of homophobia. They've internalized it. [05:33] DaemonFC So they do weird shit like saying fucking another guy is fine as long as you're on top, don't wear a condom, and keep your socks on. [05:33] DaemonFC And they don't get tested until they're in the hospital with "pneumonia". [05:34] DaemonFC So their own rampant homophobia is hurting other black people.

[05:38] DaemonFC Blacks and Hispanics usually don't get along well. [05:38] DaemonFC You notice how many biracial Black/Hispanic people there are, even in this state where most people are one or the other? [05:38] DaemonFC Very rare. [05:38] DaemonFC They don't mix. It's frowned upon on both sides. [05:39] DaemonFC There's actually quite a lot of biracial White/Asian people. [05:39] DaemonFC Not as much animosity. [05:41] DaemonFC Your White parents probably won't hate you over the Asian partner. Their Asian family will likely see you as a curiosity and start gathering around you. [05:41] DaemonFC Of course there's some racism to be had here, but... [05:41] DaemonFC It's not hostile to the point of shooting at each other's gangs while you see one of them pumping gas.

The three have.....uhm, lower opinions of Blacks and Indians (the one from India...not the Native Americans, which are fine.)

[05:55] *DaemonFC gives voice to u-amarsh04 [05:55] DaemonFC Instead of bagging on Brendan Eich, why don't the fucking idiots like Hamas Harvey look at who VOTED FOR Proposition 8? 59% of blacks in California voted to ban gay marriage.

[06:14] DaemonFC Most of what made the south the south, they were allowed to keep. [06:15] DaemonFC To this day, Hyundai/Kia makes cars there because they can hire people and pay them $10 an hour and slip in a bunch of illegal aliens and children and pay the officials to look the other way.

They reverse-edited all the news articles to say that 8 hours later, Crimo III was captured on Route 41 near Wadsworth after he drove all the way up to Wisconsin and then inexplicably decided not to shoot up another parade. [21:26] DaemonFC The arrest video shows the sun high in the sky, which is, you know, what you'd expect for 8 hours after a parade that occurred mid-day. [21:27] DaemonFC The left also decided (surprise surprise) to have a "think tank" accuse him of being "far-right" and a Nazi, and then law enforcement chimed in that there was no evidence of that after the London-based "think tank" that Biden's disinformation minister went to work for made the allegations.

[21:29] DaemonFC "We never said that. This is clearly the fault of Republicans!" [21:29] DaemonFC "All mass shooters are Republicans, especially the confirmed transgender ones like Audrey Hale, and the transvestite ones, like Robert E. Crimo III." [21:30] DaemonFC Like 16 different security cameras saw Crimo escaping in women's clothing. Why did he "need the disguise"? [21:30] DaemonFC Men were half the crowd. [21:31] DaemonFC Wouldn't he have blended in just as well dressed like a man?

[21:38] DaemonFC It's funny how that works, isn't it? [21:38] MinceR whose diet isn't plant-based, though?

[22:09] DaemonFC She's going to be on these pills for the rest of her life. The other option is a surgery that's going to end up costing almost $4,000. [22:09] DaemonFC So $80 of thyroid pills each year and we'll see how long the cat lives is the plan. [22:10] DaemonFC Oh, cats can live a good long time on the thyroid pills. It's just like people. You keep them alive until something else gets them. [22:11] DaemonFC A really "old" house cat is 20. I mean, that's how long Mr. Socks lived, and that was President Clinton's cat, so you know he got all the vet visits he needed. [22:12] DaemonFC If my cat is 12-13 right now, I can't see the justification in a $4,000 surgery when some pills can manage this thing indefinitely.

[22:13] DaemonFC > John Anthony Castro was indicted last week on 33 counts of aiding the preparation of false tax returns. Prosecutors claim he ran a virtual tax preparation business that provided customers with tax returns beyond what they were actually owed, defrauding the government. [22:13] DaemonFC > Castro would promise a significantly higher refund than taxpayers could receive from other preparers and on many occasions, offered to split the additional refund with taxpayers, prosecutors said in court documents. In order to achieve these larger refunds, Castro generated false deductions, that were not based in fact, and which were submitted without the taxpayers knowledge. [22:13] DaemonFC > Castro was busted by an undercover police officer, prosecutors outlined, who posed as a customer for his tax services. While a reputable tax preparer promised the undercover agent a $373 tax return, Castro instead claimed he could get $6,007, and offered to split the difference in extra cash. [22:14] DaemonFC ---- [22:14] DaemonFC I refuse to fuck around and find out when it comes to the IRS. [22:14] DaemonFC I've reported like, checks I've gotten for $1. [22:15] DaemonFC I mean, my tax returns are as thorough and complete as they can be, and every deduction I take, I check, and recheck, and do it all over again. [22:15] DaemonFC I read the law, the regulations, I do not simply go "Well, I put it in TurboTax and it turned green, so we're good, right?" [22:16] DaemonFC I call playing dumb the "TurboTax Defense". TurboTax will be accurate if what you told TurboTax was accurate. [22:16] DaemonFC You can't just "forget" about income and then blame TurboTax, but people have gone there.
