DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: This is just going to have to run its course. I agree with the Republicans only not for the same reason. They always wanted to do nothing, call it nothing, and tell their stupid idiots to go to the mall. But here's what it is no. It's fanning out like a slow motion nuclear explosion, and the only variable now is how long until it's done doing the damage that is baked in. | Jul 22 00:00 |
schestowitz | 63k cases | Jul 22 00:02 |
schestowitz | 15th was 72k | Jul 22 00:03 |
schestowitz | but... | Jul 22 00:03 |
schestowitz | they are 'rate-limiting' the tests now | Jul 22 00:03 |
schestowitz | so we're not comparing apples to apple | Jul 22 00:03 |
schestowitz | *Apples | Jul 22 00:03 |
DaemonFC[m] | Yeah, but that's not really a partisan thing either. California and Illinois don't want to know either. | Jul 22 00:04 |
DaemonFC[m] | So they're testing "at risk people" to keep the spreadsheet deaths down. | Jul 22 00:04 |
DaemonFC[m] | It gives them cover to convince people to go back out and spend money. | Jul 22 00:04 |
DaemonFC[m] | With California and Illinois, we've got gigantic economies that eclipse 25 red states combined, but the Democrats have managed to ruin the state finances by hiring useless dead weight and giving them gigantic pensions. | Jul 22 00:05 |
DaemonFC[m] | The truth is that the mainstream Democrats are just as racist as Republicans. They're good at not talking as if they are | Jul 22 00:06 |

DaemonFC[m] | Biden hasn't done a damned thing for black people. The only reason he's doing better than Trump is because he goes and "talks to them" instead of just running his mouth all the time, like "The blacks love Trump!" says Trump. Referring to oneself in the third person is not a good sign of cognitive health, but hey, let's just talk about Biden's, say Trump's cretins. | Jul 22 00:08 |
DaemonFC[m] | I can't believe that, in the middle of a plague, we have people like my mom still going "Oh, we can't afford free healthcare!" after the government spent $7 trillion in 4 months on Trump and his criminal friends. | Jul 22 00:08 |
DaemonFC[m] | You know, she's one big medical bill away from having to file bankruptcy again, so you'd think she'd be biting her knuckles over this thing more than anyone. | Jul 22 00:10 |
DaemonFC[m] | After using hand sanitizer, of course. | Jul 22 00:10 |
DaemonFC[m] | You know, I was pretty sure she was a skinny dipper as far the level of sheer stupidity that goes on in that church of hers. | Jul 22 00:11 |

DaemonFC[m] | When her ass was on the line, she held back. There's always some. | Jul 22 00:11 |
DaemonFC[m] | Well, the whole thing is, look at what happened to people whose faith in God was stronger. They laughed at her, they got the virus. | Jul 22 00:12 |
DaemonFC[m] | I don't have faith in anything and I'd call that a survival mechanism. | Jul 22 00:12 |
schestowitz | here's the thing | Jul 22 00:13 |
schestowitz | for us anyway: | Jul 22 00:13 |
schestowitz | stay home when possible | Jul 22 00:13 |
schestowitz | don't resist temptation to "go back to normal" | Jul 22 00:13 |
schestowitz | next month we get 50% on meals out | Jul 22 00:13 |
schestowitz | it's a government program | Jul 22 00:14 |
schestowitz | it'll help us support the local dining places economically | Jul 22 00:14 |
schestowitz | and we'll go back to the gym | Jul 22 00:14 |
schestowitz | but we'll watch how many daily cases are found/confirmed | Jul 22 00:14 |
schestowitz | right now, for about 2-3 weeks, it's around 500 | Jul 22 00:14 |
schestowitz | for N. Ireland, Scotland, England and Wales combined | Jul 22 00:15 |
schestowitz | and almost all deaths are very old people, not that it makes it OK | Jul 22 00:15 |
schestowitz | US is another basketcase | Jul 22 00:15 |
DaemonFC[m] | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zip_(file_format)#Compression_methods | Jul 22 00:19 |
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-en.wikipedia.org | Zip (file format) - Wikipedia | Jul 22 00:19 | |
DaemonFC[m] | The interesting thing is that WinZip added WavPack as their "Best Method" for audio compression. | Jul 22 00:19 |
DaemonFC[m] | Going by technical merit, I'd have to agree strongly. FLAC is more widely supported, but that's really its only advantage. | Jul 22 00:20 |
DaemonFC[m] | There's a number for "WV" as the compression type now in the ZIP standard published by PKWare because of this. | Jul 22 00:20 |
DaemonFC[m] | <schestowitz "it's a government program"> The government program for restaurant owners under Trump isn't 50% off for their customers. It's 50% of restaurants filing Chapter 11, along with the rest of Corporate America, including the airlines. | Jul 22 00:22 |
schestowitz | lol | Jul 22 00:22 |
schestowitz | well, they still have kfc and stuff | Jul 22 00:22 |
schestowitz | the big franchises | Jul 22 00:22 |
schestowitz | maybe federal rationing coming soon | Jul 22 00:22 |
schestowitz | for when | Jul 22 00:22 |
schestowitz | 1) people are obless | Jul 22 00:22 |
schestowitz | jobless | Jul 22 00:22 |
schestowitz | 2) social security has been gutted | Jul 22 00:22 |
schestowitz | 3) today they say SNAP too is being cut/axed | Jul 22 00:23 |
schestowitz | so... starvation OK | Jul 22 00:23 |
schestowitz | but 4 TRILLION for billionaires in "bailouts" | Jul 22 00:23 |
schestowitz | who didn't see that coming? | Jul 22 00:23 |
schestowitz | it's not like there was some trump tape to show people who they were voting for | Jul 22 00:23 |
schestowitz | he said "crooked hillary" | Jul 22 00:23 |
schestowitz | calling othes what he himself is | Jul 22 00:23 |
schestowitz | not he insinuates Biden si demented | Jul 22 00:24 |
schestowitz | the Demented Orange tries to create the fiction of parity | Jul 22 00:24 |
schestowitz | as if Hillary and him might be equally crooked | Jul 22 00:24 |
DaemonFC[m] | Yeah, I went to that mobile pantry express thing today. | Jul 22 00:24 |
schestowitz | and it's actually Biden who has mental issues | Jul 22 00:24 |
schestowitz | clever projection tactics | Jul 22 00:24 |
DaemonFC[m] | Just a lot of random stuff that they had on hand. | Jul 22 00:24 |
DaemonFC[m] | Green beans and powerbars. | Jul 22 00:24 |
DaemonFC[m] | It's getting real bad out there. | Jul 22 00:24 |
schestowitz | not GOya | Jul 22 00:25 |
schestowitz | hey, "Goya" is probably what Jared Kushner calls the dictator's girl | Jul 22 00:25 |
DaemonFC[m] | Well, everyone needs the food pantry at the same time while mom's complaining about bizarre hours at Starbucks. | Jul 22 00:25 |

schestowitz | wth? | Jul 22 00:26 |
DaemonFC[m] | Fox "News" is projecting again. They're trying to pretend there's another rightwing "reverse boycott" like any of these Neanderthals who voted Trump would know what to do with Goya anyway. | Jul 22 00:26 |
schestowitz | mayeb Jared told her, "hey, they called their company after you" | Jul 22 00:26 |
DaemonFC[m] | I got out ahead of this and filed bankruptcy and probably found the last lawyer in Illinois who charged less than $1,000 to file one.. | Jul 22 00:27 |
DaemonFC[m] | You'd better believe I smelled blood in the water, Roy. Everything that the Insane Far Right is just now beginning to grasp, is what I was saying in March. | Jul 22 00:28 |
schestowitz | the us has no far right | Jul 22 00:28 |
schestowitz | now it's just "right" | Jul 22 00:28 |
schestowitz | right? | Jul 22 00:28 |
schestowitz | GOP | Jul 22 00:28 |
schestowitz | Biden is not left, either | Jul 22 00:28 |
schestowitz | barely even center | Jul 22 00:29 |
schestowitz | look what he did after 9/11 | Jul 22 00:29 |
DaemonFC[m] | Voted for the AUMF and the "patriot act". | Jul 22 00:29 |
DaemonFC[m] | Which continue to be abused. | Jul 22 00:30 |
schestowitz | with duterte in .ph I wouldn't suggest you explore going there atm | Jul 22 00:32 |
DaemonFC[m] | I think a lot of people just want divided government because while the Democrats and Republicans are throwing shit at each other. I mean look at what happened when Bush tried to end Social Security in 2006. The Democrat said "We won't let him!" and won big time. They're not interested in letting it survive intact long term, but the longer they're in there slugging it out with the Republicans, you know. Old people see | Jul 22 00:32 |
DaemonFC[m] | that and they think "Maybe it goes on long enough for me to take it and then die.". | Jul 22 00:32 |
schestowitz | I see that Ariadne does not like him, either | Jul 22 00:32 |
MinceR | biden is also in the pocket of the imaginary property lobby, isn't he? | Jul 22 00:32 |
schestowitz | yup | Jul 22 00:32 |
DaemonFC[m] | Oh yeah | Jul 22 00:32 |
schestowitz | mate of dodds | Jul 22 00:32 |
schestowitz | very close buddies | Jul 22 00:32 |
Ariadne | does not like who? | Jul 22 00:32 |
MinceR | uhmerica is truly and well fucked | Jul 22 00:32 |
schestowitz | Ariadne: duterte | Jul 22 00:32 |
DaemonFC[m] | That's one of the things I agree with my dad on. | Jul 22 00:32 |
Ariadne | why would i like any dictator who has a death squad ? :p | Jul 22 00:33 |
schestowitz | I call him polpot duterte | Jul 22 00:33 |
DaemonFC[m] | Yeah, Chris Dodd. Resigned and became top guy at MPAA. | Jul 22 00:33 |
DaemonFC[m] | Maricel loves Duterte. | Jul 22 00:33 |
schestowitz | says a lot | Jul 22 00:33 |
DaemonFC[m] | Her whole family does. | Jul 22 00:33 |
schestowitz | calls people bakla | Jul 22 00:33 |
schestowitz | like mandy | Jul 22 00:34 |
DaemonFC[m] | Yeah, I knew I was in trouble at the wedding reception when she starts talking about the great things that Duterte did for the Philippines. | Jul 22 00:34 |
schestowitz | and insults women all the time | Jul 22 00:34 |
DaemonFC[m] | Maricel probably doesn't mind. She fashions herself a pretty little princess anyway. | Jul 22 00:34 |
XRevan86 | MinceR: "in the pocket" – our hero Trump will put a stop to this, a GOPstop | Jul 22 00:34 |
kingoffrance | lol kfc might actually tie into trump, i think it was sold long ago to casinos | Jul 22 00:34 |
DaemonFC[m] | Screams like a child when someone crosses her. | Jul 22 00:34 |
MinceR | XRevan86: lol | Jul 22 00:34 |
kingoffrance | saw that in "the bluegrass conspiracy" or some such, the preppie mafia | Jul 22 00:35 |
DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: I feel sorry for everyone in that house that has to live with her. | Jul 22 00:35 |
DaemonFC[m] | She was dragging her daughter around by the hair and when her husband stepped in, she hit him. | Jul 22 00:35 |
DaemonFC[m] | Apparently. | Jul 22 00:35 |
kingoffrance | dont trust me on this, my memory is hazy | Jul 22 00:35 |
schestowitz | duterte is a lot like trump in the sense that many consecutive failing regimes led people to something "different' | Jul 22 00:35 |
schestowitz | radical, but "different" | Jul 22 00:36 |
schestowitz | like obama started wars and pardoned bad bankers | Jul 22 00:36 |
schestowitz | so people say, heck, let's vote for the crazier one | Jul 22 00:36 |
schestowitz | that's duterte | Jul 22 00:36 |
DaemonFC[m] | You can't even ask for food stamps or your immigration case is doomed. | Jul 22 00:36 |
DaemonFC[m] | They will know. They will bring it up. | Jul 22 00:36 |
DaemonFC[m] | The bankruptcy counseling tells you about public housing and food stamps. Like you can even get those. | Jul 22 00:37 |

DaemonFC[m] | Something new on my case popped up "Notice to Prosecutor" on the 9th of last month. | Jul 22 00:46 |
DaemonFC[m] | Probably just some formality. 60 days out from the probation ending. | Jul 22 00:46 |

DaemonFC[m] | <schestowitz "whose?"> Mine. | Jul 22 01:01 |
DaemonFC[m] | Wonder if I should ping my lawyer and ask about that. | Jul 22 01:02 |
DaemonFC[m] | It's probably nothing but I trust this government as far as I could throw this motel. | Jul 22 01:02 |
DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: As they say, "Get it in writing." but when the government's involved, maybe that's the best you can do, but still don't trust them. | Jul 22 01:03 |
DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: I went on a date with someone a day before this whole mess started. He ghosted me after he found out about what happened the next day. Turns out his dad is a sex offender. | Jul 22 01:04 |
DaemonFC[m] | Says in 1989, he had "criminal sexual activity with family member under 13". They worked out a plea deal and settled for "incest". Oh my god. :P | Jul 22 01:05 |
DaemonFC[m] | The punishment was "periodic imprisonment" | Jul 22 01:05 |
DaemonFC[m] | Hmmm. "I am taking these periodic prisoners to be periodically imprisoned in periodic prison.". :D | Jul 22 01:06 |
DaemonFC[m] | Hiding worked for Phil Katz for the rest of his life. | Jul 22 01:06 |
DaemonFC[m] | He hid out for 5 years and that was long enough to drink himself to death. | Jul 22 01:06 |
DaemonFC[m] | I don't understand how a person can be filthy stinking rich and "haunted" by something. | Jul 22 01:07 |
DaemonFC[m] | Like, hates his existence? Why? He's got money. Nobody telling him what to do at work. | Jul 22 01:08 |
MinceR | by being stuck on a planet full of humans, i guess | Jul 22 01:08 |

DaemonFC[m] | They're going to say jilted ex lover who was dealing with his own criminal problems. | Jul 22 01:26 |
DaemonFC[m] | I guarantee you that nothing will come of it. | Jul 22 01:26 |
schestowitz | I don't have to reply to them | Jul 22 01:26 |
DaemonFC[m] | Or they'll figure out how to make it my problem. | Jul 22 01:27 |
schestowitz | I could drop them a clue with the MailOnline article | Jul 22 01:27 |
schestowitz | but a lead alone might not suffice | Jul 22 01:27 |
DaemonFC[m] | There really is no way to do this without me talking to them. | Jul 22 01:27 |
DaemonFC[m] | No, just, ugh.. | Jul 22 01:28 |
schestowitz | never mind then | Jul 22 01:28 |
DaemonFC[m] | He's a pervert but this will all land on my front doorstep while I'm trying to get off probation. | Jul 22 01:28 |
schestowitz | so it's all in reverse now | Jul 22 01:28 |
schestowitz | instead of pedophiles being controlled by threats | Jul 22 01:28 |
schestowitz | it's the pedophiles controlling others | Jul 22 01:29 |
DaemonFC[m] | I do worry about how this could blow up on me, yes. | Jul 22 01:29 |
DaemonFC[m] | I even told my bankruptcy lawyer to file from my PO Box because I was terrified that he would find me. | Jul 22 01:29 |
DaemonFC[m] | He's crazy. | Jul 22 01:29 |
DaemonFC[m] | I have voicemails that prove it, but nobody cares. | Jul 22 01:29 |
schestowitz | he looks creepy | Jul 22 01:29 |
schestowitz | TSA quality | Jul 22 01:29 |
DaemonFC[m] | He started trying to gaslight me as soon as I moved out to get me to reveal where I was. | Jul 22 01:30 |
DaemonFC[m] | Like oh, let's just be friends. This could all blow over. I really love you in my own fucked up way! | Jul 22 01:30 |
schestowitz | 1,113, half an hour to go | Jul 22 01:31 |
DaemonFC[m] | While he was busy telling his mom a story about how I killed the cats or something. | Jul 22 01:31 |
DaemonFC[m] | Which are both right here with me, alive and well, no thanks to him. | Jul 22 01:31 |
schestowitz | DaemonFC[m]: it's up to you if you want me to blow the horn and, if so, in what way to avoid leaving a trail | Jul 22 01:31 |
schestowitz | he really should not be touching anyone at airports | Jul 22 01:31 |
schestowitz | or anywhere else for that matter... | Jul 22 01:31 |
DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: Can we put the pin back in this until the 7th of next month? | Jul 22 01:31 |
schestowitz | sure | Jul 22 01:32 |
schestowitz | I can file a report any time | Jul 22 01:32 |
DaemonFC[m] | I really don't need him going fucking crazy trying to make sure I never get off probation. | Jul 22 01:32 |
DaemonFC[m] | After this closes out, there's nobody for him to scream to about me. | Jul 22 01:32 |
DaemonFC[m] | I need the judge to gavel this shut on that morning and then I'll talk. | Jul 22 01:33 |
DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: Plus I doubt he'll be working at the airport again in the next two weeks if it really is getting so bad that they're firing a third of the airline employees. | Jul 22 01:34 |
DaemonFC[m] | So there's that. | Jul 22 01:34 |
DaemonFC[m] | A third.... Like, they're done pretending that this is going to be short term pain. | Jul 22 01:35 |
DaemonFC[m] | Letting all these people go permanently is not something you do if everything is going to be running again in 3-6 months. | Jul 22 01:35 |

DaemonFC[m] | I've already lost one year of my life because of this asshole. | Jul 22 02:35 |
DaemonFC[m] | You might be apprehensive about anything that could risk your safety too if someone did this to you. | Jul 22 02:35 |
DaemonFC[m] | I feel sorry for whoever ends up with him or whoever he commits a crime against. | Jul 22 02:36 |
DaemonFC[m] | Like I said before, it would have been better had that guy shot him under the L that day he was trying to hook up and figured it would be a great idea to follow some Mexican guy in south Chicago out of hearing distance from anyone on the chance that there was a blowjob involved. | Jul 22 02:37 |
DaemonFC[m] | The police never bothered to investigate that. | Jul 22 02:38 |
DaemonFC[m] | I told one of them "Well, I know you have backdoors into Grindr. Why don't you just pull the geolocation and chat data and figure out where this guy is at?". | Jul 22 02:38 |
DaemonFC[m] | The detective acted like getting a subpoena to serve on Grindr would be some gigantic deal. | Jul 22 02:39 |
DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: The police could actually solve crime if they felt like it, and it would be so easy. They simply do not care, except in certain cases. | Jul 22 02:40 |
DaemonFC[m] | If it's going to be a pain in the ass, they don't bother. | Jul 22 02:40 |
DaemonFC[m] | Rick was different because he landed on a detective's desk and there's a lot of pressure on them to solve those sorts of cases. | Jul 22 02:41 |
DaemonFC[m] | They sit on Grindr all day trying to entrap gay men. | Jul 22 02:41 |
DaemonFC[m] | They try to get you to admit you'd fuck a 16 year old or that you'd like to snort some cocaine. | Jul 22 02:41 |
DaemonFC[m] | Then when you show up, boom. You're in handcuffs. | Jul 22 02:41 |
DaemonFC[m] | They don't go after straight people like that, even though "the law is neutral". | Jul 22 02:42 |
DaemonFC[m] | They have a raging hard on for arresting and prosecuting gay men for anything they can hit them with. | Jul 22 02:42 |
DaemonFC[m] | Don't believe anyone who says that's not true. | Jul 22 02:43 |
DaemonFC[m] | The police are systematically targeting gay men in a way they don't go after anyone else. | Jul 22 02:43 |
DaemonFC[m] | In 2020, in Illinois. | Jul 22 02:43 |
DaemonFC[m] | Rick's problem was being gay while committing another crime. | Jul 22 02:44 |
DaemonFC[m] | The police want you more if you do tht. | Jul 22 02:44 |
DaemonFC[m] | The only thing that keeps you somewhat safe from being targeted by them is that you're not visibly different from the rest of the population. | Jul 22 02:45 |
DaemonFC[m] | Like, you hear "Driving While Black". | Jul 22 02:45 |
DaemonFC[m] | The cops sees a black guy driving a nice car? Better check it out. | Jul 22 02:45 |
DaemonFC[m] | You have to be incredibly careful. | Jul 22 02:46 |
DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: I've been so paranoid this last year of any more police encounters that I've been driving 5 mph under the speed limit. | Jul 22 02:47 |
DaemonFC[m] | They actually do have their claws in just about all programs on a typical smartphone. | Jul 22 02:48 |
DaemonFC[m] | Wouldn't take them five minutes to get that info out of Grindr. | Jul 22 02:48 |
DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: Grindr sells your data to Facebook to pin with the data Facebook has on you. | Jul 22 02:51 |
DaemonFC[m] | Facebook wouldn't tell me what that data was though, just that I could delete it. | Jul 22 02:51 |

DaemonFC[m] | For some reason the "left" just looks the other way and spends their money there anyway while the CEOs are lobbying to shut down Social Security so they can buy another yacht. | Jul 22 04:00 |
DaemonFC[m] | This "fake military" that Trump has out on the streets is part of a coordinated right-wing scheme at all levels. The megacorporations are scared to death that all of the black service workers that they fired because of the pandemic are going to upset things, in a way that's not good for them. | Jul 22 04:01 |
DaemonFC[m] | So I suspect that there won't be any relief in the court system from Trump's "fake military" which doesn't wear any name badges and won't say where it's from, and they might try to stop the election. | Jul 22 04:02 |

schestowitz | like... are they being sarcastic about it not being COVID? | Jul 22 18:20 |

DaemonFC[m] | They tried the pneumonia line here in the US for COVID until it was too big to hide the fact that it was already circulating. | Jul 22 19:00 |
DaemonFC[m] | I think that the federal government knew it was circulating as far back as December and that Trump didn't want to cause mass panic on the off chance that it "might not really be that bad". | Jul 22 19:01 |

DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: We're getting the Communist Party Chernobyl playbook here. | Jul 22 19:02 |
DaemonFC[m] | It's a small fire and it's under control. | Jul 22 19:02 |
DaemonFC[m] | Then they start gradually admitting it's worse than they said, several times. | Jul 22 19:02 |
DaemonFC[m] | Then they have to admit it's a huge disaster. | Jul 22 19:02 |
DaemonFC[m] | Still covered up the numbers. Russia lies about them today. | Jul 22 19:02 |
schestowitz | let me find you a linl | Jul 22 19:03 |
schestowitz | *link | Jul 22 19:03 |
schestowitz | XRevan86: thanks for the synopsis | Jul 22 19:03 |
DaemonFC[m] | "Small fire" admits that there's a problem but it makes it look like the government knows what's going on and will solve the issue. | Jul 22 19:03 |
schestowitz | This: | Jul 22 19:03 |
schestowitz | https://truthout.org/articles/fox-news-viewers-more-likely-to-believe-covid-death-count-is-fake-poll-shows/ | Jul 22 19:03 |
-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-truthout.org | Fox News Viewers More Likely to Believe COVID Death Count Is Fake, Poll Shows | Jul 22 19:03 | |
schestowitz | there's another one about how Trump wants to control the info | Jul 22 19:04 |
DaemonFC[m] | So in December they quietly started saying there was an uptick in pneumonia. | Jul 22 19:04 |
schestowitz | but I am not sure how to fetch it quickly | Jul 22 19:04 |
DaemonFC[m] | There's your "small fire" part. | Jul 22 19:04 |
schestowitz | DaemonFC[m]: you can hide/dent cases | Jul 22 19:04 |
schestowitz | hiding dead bodies is harder | Jul 22 19:05 |
DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: Trump came out yesterday and said it's going to get "much worse before it gets better". | Jul 22 19:05 |
schestowitz | or registry of people who are no longer living, i.e. dead | Jul 22 19:05 |
schestowitz | you can compare year-to-year | Jul 22 19:05 |
schestowitz | as we do here | Jul 22 19:05 |
DaemonFC[m] | So we're moving past the "it leaked a small amount of radiation, but nothing catastrophic" phase. | Jul 22 19:05 |
schestowitz | e.g. deaths in March 2019 and same in 2020 | Jul 22 19:05 |
schestowitz | and then you have to make up excuses foe gaps that covid, direct and indirect, cannot account fr | Jul 22 19:05 |
schestowitz | I saw some people who use unverified cdc numbers in FB to mislead | Jul 22 19:06 |
DaemonFC[m] | Last month, CDC said that through May, there were an additional 60,000 deaths that were "cause unknown" over baseline. | Jul 22 19:06 |
schestowitz | they compared apples to oranges | Jul 22 19:06 |
DaemonFC[m] | Who knows, really. | Jul 22 19:06 |
schestowitz | many fb drones passed on the lies | Jul 22 19:06 |
DaemonFC[m] | All I can tell you, is whatever they say, it's worse. | Jul 22 19:06 |
schestowitz | In May the US lost the most almost, plus April | Jul 22 19:06 |
schestowitz | DaemonFC[m]: of course, that's how government works | Jul 22 19:06 |
schestowitz | (unless the gov. stands to gain from worse) | Jul 22 19:07 |

DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: At this point, no matter what they say, I'll keep wearing a mask and obsessively using hand sanitizer for a minimum of 6 months after they say it's "over". | Jul 22 19:09 |
DaemonFC[m] | I don't believe anything they say enough to risk my own life. | Jul 22 19:09 |
DaemonFC[m] | For a while there, it looked like the daily deaths would drop below 100 sometime soon in the official reports. | Jul 22 19:11 |
DaemonFC[m] | Then they blamed the George Floyd protests for the Republican reopenings flaring the pandemic up, which probably explains why 90% of the flare up is in red states where there were hardly any protests. | Jul 22 19:11 |

schestowitz | china claims it's all over for china | Jul 22 19:14 |
schestowitz | which I doubt | Jul 22 19:14 |
schestowitz | india is chaotic now | Jul 22 19:14 |
schestowitz | like XRevan86 says, hard to know what really goes on in Russia | Jul 22 19:14 |
schestowitz | they always report 100-200 deaths in weekdays | Jul 22 19:15 |
schestowitz | to be fair, many towns are sparsely populated | Jul 22 19:15 |
schestowitz | 560 new cases reported here today | Jul 22 19:16 |
schestowitz | we're back to the gym Saturday | Jul 22 19:16 |
schestowitz | I'll go to assess how it feels... if not many people are back (many canceled), I might not need a mask inside the gym | Jul 22 19:17 |
schestowitz | it was usually next to empty anyway, even before covid | Jul 22 19:17 |
schestowitz | 9,785 in FL today | Jul 22 19:18 |
DaemonFC[m] | China had to say it was under control because Communist governments are 10 times worse about having to look like they didn't completely screw something up. | Jul 22 19:19 |
DaemonFC[m] | It's like Trump on steroids as far as all of the lying and bullshit. | Jul 22 19:20 |
schestowitz | 140 dead in FL so far | Jul 22 19:21 |
schestowitz | can be the next NYS | Jul 22 19:21 |
schestowitz | 1000 dead a day | Jul 22 19:21 |
DaemonFC[m] | I was reading about all of Trump's fake macho nonsense on electoral-vote's blog and they seem to think it's more martial law kabuki theater because it's enough to get the Fox News idiots to cheer it on, but not enough to really cause a significant blowback from Congress and the states. | Jul 22 19:21 |
DaemonFC[m] | Fake macho nonsense plays better on the right than actual competency and results, because they're not smart. | Jul 22 19:22 |
schestowitz | macho michi | Jul 22 19:22 |
schestowitz | didn't even enlist to fight a war | Jul 22 19:22 |
schestowitz | sends thugs to do the violence for him | Jul 22 19:22 |
DaemonFC[m] | It doesn't look like there's going to be any significant pushback from the states and cities. Some "lawsuits", which play out in Trump's fake courts. | Jul 22 19:23 |
schestowitz | pseudo-machoism | Jul 22 19:23 |
DaemonFC[m] | By the time anything is answered, he'll have played it for all the propaganda value it's worth already anyway. | Jul 22 19:23 |
schestowitz | well, the world's view of the US erodes | Jul 22 19:23 |
schestowitz | it will impact US trade | Jul 22 19:23 |
XRevan86 | DaemonFC[m]: I think it's more about that in regimes with tight central control responsibility easily goes all the way up. | Jul 22 19:23 |
schestowitz | Biden is right wing as well | Jul 22 19:23 |
DaemonFC[m] | Oh, they threaten to sanction us but they never do. | Jul 22 19:24 |
XRevan86 | And so fsck-ups affect its foundations much more. | Jul 22 19:24 |
schestowitz | so it's not like we have real resistance from "D" | Jul 22 19:24 |
DaemonFC[m] | The truth is that the EU and the rest of them want money more than they actually have any values. | Jul 22 19:24 |
DaemonFC[m] | MinceRknows what they'll turn a blind eye to in Hungary. | Jul 22 19:24 |
schestowitz | EU is not its people | Jul 22 19:24 |
schestowitz | many people don't view the US the same anymore | Jul 22 19:24 |
DaemonFC[m] | Just to avoid having a Hexit or whatever you want to call it. | Jul 22 19:24 |
schestowitz | that can also affect tourism and business opportunities | Jul 22 19:24 |
schestowitz | Trump wants to make it seem like a "MAGA" | Jul 22 19:25 |
XRevan86 | DaemonFC[m]: ugor-ugon | Jul 22 19:25 |
schestowitz | and without invading Iran he already caused massive additional debt | Jul 22 19:25 |
DaemonFC[m] | Yeah, the US is behaving like a broken autocratic dictatorship. Whether that's true or not, Trump is signaling that to get votes and it's utterly repulsive to many people. | Jul 22 19:25 |
schestowitz | on that basis alone he failed like he did his fake businesses | Jul 22 19:25 |
schestowitz | he's just good at borrowing (from RUssia maybe) until he goes bust | Jul 22 19:26 |
schestowitz | Bernie Madoff was good at that too | Jul 22 19:26 |
DaemonFC[m] | Trump owes a lot of money on a loan in China that comes due soon after the election. | Jul 22 19:26 |
DaemonFC[m] | So he's using US foreign policy to negotiate his own business loans. | Jul 22 19:26 |
schestowitz | makes sense | Jul 22 19:26 |
schestowitz | anyway, good luck with alllll that | Jul 22 19:27 |
schestowitz | he also uses military budget (ukraine) as playing ground for an election of his | Jul 22 19:27 |
schestowitz | and without any consequences | Jul 22 19:27 |
schestowitz | GOP backed this corruption | Jul 22 19:28 |
schestowitz | so you know half your politicians, at least, are complicit in these crimes | Jul 22 19:28 |
DaemonFC[m] | Mandy just doesn't get how things work or why things have to be a certain way. | Jul 22 19:30 |
DaemonFC[m] | He's getting flustered because everything has been closed so long and I said, "Do you think you're the only one who is pissed off!?". | Jul 22 19:31 |
DaemonFC[m] | "Sit down, shut up, and don't make anything worse. Because the last time you didn't listen to me, it started a war with your sister that I am hoping doesn't ruin your immigration case." | Jul 22 19:32 |
DaemonFC[m] | I told him. I said, "Don't tell your sister that you have a job because they're in terrible debt over there and she will try to get all of your money!". | Jul 22 19:32 |
DaemonFC[m] | He's like, "Oh you're overreacting. Just shut up!". | Jul 22 19:32 |
DaemonFC[m] | So he gets on the phone and tells her all about his new job and she demands all his money. Then when I say we can't, she goes nuts and starts threatening to get me in trouble with the government and ruining his immigration case, and laughing maniacally. | Jul 22 19:33 |
DaemonFC[m] | She's like "I'm going to go to the state of Illinois and tell them all about your credit cards!". | Jul 22 19:34 |
DaemonFC[m] | I said, "Nobody gives a fuck about my credit cards. THE FEDERAL COURT doesn't give a fuck. Go ahead. What else do you have?". | Jul 22 19:34 |
DaemonFC[m] | It's been an awful summer. | Jul 22 19:34 |

DaemonFC[m] | How stupid does this lady think I am? | Jul 22 19:35 |
DaemonFC[m] | She's not a lawyer. My lawyer is a lawyer and she laughed hard when I told her about my sister in law. | Jul 22 19:36 |

DaemonFC[m] | Pretty much. Had to change my phone number, which I wasn't even doing when the bill collector people were blowing up my phone. | Jul 22 19:37 |
DaemonFC[m] | If that tells you how annoying this bitch is. | Jul 22 19:37 |
schestowitz | some people are more trouble than it's worth. She sounds like one. | Jul 22 19:37 |
schestowitz | And blackmailing for money is even worse. | Jul 22 19:37 |
DaemonFC[m] | Absolutely. | Jul 22 19:37 |
DaemonFC[m] | I think it's one of those cases where people treat you like you're stupid because they hope you are. | Jul 22 19:38 |
DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: I think GM has a patent on that car part I need and they're trying to obsolete the car by not making the part but not letting anyone else do it. | Jul 22 19:39 |
DaemonFC[m] | Fortunately, it's just a stupid rubber hose pretty much and something can be arranged. | Jul 22 19:39 |
DaemonFC[m] | I keep telling mom "Don't buy another GM car. They were bad 25 years ago and they're awful now.". | Jul 22 19:40 |
DaemonFC[m] | The 2011 Impala has had so many problems. Not there's a woodpecker noise and the mechanic says "It's a relay for your air conditioner, and it operates a sensor. It won't fail, but GM has no idea how to fix it and you can just go through as many as you want to put on there and they will all start doing it at some point.". | Jul 22 19:41 |
DaemonFC[m] | *Now | Jul 22 19:41 |
DaemonFC[m] | So, it also controls a sensor fora thermometer that displays the temperature outside. | Jul 22 19:42 |
DaemonFC[m] | So it gives a reading of 9 degrees F in summer and tells her to watch out for ice. | Jul 22 19:42 |
DaemonFC[m] | I told her "Next time, buy a Honda or a Toyota." She's like "I will. This is my last Chevy.". | Jul 22 19:43 |
DaemonFC[m] | I said, "And take me with you so I can look at it!". | Jul 22 19:43 |
DaemonFC[m] | It's getting BMW bad, but they also don't have stupid idiots for customers who think that money grows on a tree in the backyard or tries to extort their own brother for his Walmart money, like Maricel. | Jul 22 19:44 |
DaemonFC[m] | So it's not going to end well for GM. | Jul 22 19:44 |
DaemonFC[m] | They're still going because they got a bunch of people for the last time. | Jul 22 19:45 |
DaemonFC[m] | So what does GM do instead of making better stuff? They bought themselves some of those fake "JD Power Awards" and ran ads at the movie theater, when there was one. | Jul 22 19:45 |
DaemonFC[m] | Brand loyalty is another way of putting "sucker". | Jul 22 19:49 |
schestowitz | you pay for marketing | Jul 22 19:49 |
DaemonFC[m] | A smart person runs into a seriously bad product and says "Oh, that didn't work out so well. No more of those.". | Jul 22 19:49 |
DaemonFC[m] | Oh my god, these new ones have so many things that are not even going to last the life of the loan, much less 10-20 years. | Jul 22 19:50 |
DaemonFC[m] | Think those displays and computer chips and things are there to last? No. | Jul 22 19:50 |
DaemonFC[m] | Their goal is to ruin the used car market, except for a few companies that still seem to stand behind their products. All Japanese. | Jul 22 19:52 |
DaemonFC[m] | They're just "different". The culture is. Sometimes it's good, sometimes it isn't. | Jul 22 19:53 |
DaemonFC[m] | High pressure to succeed so the ones that don't are practically expected to kill themselves. | Jul 22 19:53 |
DaemonFC[m] | There would be no Japanese Trump because they'd be expected to kill themselves so many times already. | Jul 22 19:54 |
DaemonFC[m] | The guy is slovenly, sleazy, walking away from your creditors and telling them sue you and filing bankruptcy 6 times is so not going to be tolerated in Japan. | Jul 22 19:55 |
DaemonFC[m] | They have maglev trains because they're not going to entertain the idea of someone like Trump getting into high places in business or government. | Jul 22 19:56 |

DaemonFC[m] | Of course it doesn't exactly work like that. You can't have a "partial mitigation strategy" for something like this because, it's cropping up anyway in those neighborhoods. If you don't even try to help 90% of the population it ends up hurting everyone. | Jul 22 20:00 |
DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: Every episode of Rick & Morty is pretty funny, but I think I liked the one with Abraham Lincler more than some. Rick spliced Lincoln and Hitler together in a failed boredom project to create a morally ambivalent leader. | Jul 22 20:07 |
DaemonFC[m] | It comes across an alien monster and says "Prepare to be liberated! From your own inferior genes!". | Jul 22 20:07 |
DaemonFC[m] | If the people COVID was mostly killing were younger stupid people who were likely to have more kids, I'd say that would be a fitting description. | Jul 22 20:08 |
DaemonFC[m] | Some guy called Mandy a "pussy" yesterday because he tried to go in Walmart with no mask and Mandy called one of the off duty Waukegan cops on the guy. | Jul 22 20:09 |
DaemonFC[m] | The cop said "If you proceed to enter the store, I'm going to have to arrest you!". | Jul 22 20:09 |
DaemonFC[m] | That's what's wrong with this country. Everyone thinks they're hot shit, and the truth is they're nothing. | Jul 22 20:10 |
DaemonFC[m] | That's what happens from glorifying ignorance and telling everyone they're a victim and they're entitled because of that. | Jul 22 20:11 |
DaemonFC[m] | So don't be shocked, because that's the Cancel Culture mentality too. | Jul 22 20:11 |
DaemonFC[m] | They're the victim of the name of a food product at Trader Joe's. They will literally find anything and say "That's racist!". | Jul 22 20:11 |
DaemonFC[m] | Got some Chinese food you call "Trader Ming's"? RACIST! PRACTICALLY HITLER! | Jul 22 20:12 |
-viera/#techrights-Tux Machines: From a dream to reality: How Linux changed my life http://www.tuxmachines.org/node/140171 [https://pleroma.site/objects/b191facc-dcb3-49f0-b3f1-79704f756418] | Jul 22 20:12 | |
DaemonFC[m] | I don't think people outside the US realize too much what this is. | Jul 22 20:13 |
DaemonFC[m] | We've been dealing with these idiots for decades. | Jul 22 20:13 |
DaemonFC[m] | There's a clip from a Clint Eastwood Dirty Harry movie on Youtube, where "the mayors office" has decided that there will be slots for female detectives. | Jul 22 20:14 |
DaemonFC[m] | So they're going to pass unqualified people into those slots to say they're very diverse. | Jul 22 20:14 |
DaemonFC[m] | So one of them comes in and everyone except "Dirty Harry" gives her softball questions. | Jul 22 20:14 |
DaemonFC[m] | They get to him. He doesn't say anything about her gender disqualifying her from being a detective, but he digs to the bottom of it. | Jul 22 20:15 |
DaemonFC[m] | Finds out that she's from the Personnel office and she's never been a street cop, nor has she even made a misdemeanor arrest. | Jul 22 20:15 |
DaemonFC[m] | So he gets to the point, "What are you going to do when you get out there with no experience as a street cop, and someone pulls a gun on you and blows your ass away?". | Jul 22 20:16 |
DaemonFC[m] | She says, "Well, that's my risk to take.". | Jul 22 20:16 |
DaemonFC[m] | He says, "Except it's not, because you'll have a partner to, and you screw something up, you get them killed too.". | Jul 22 20:16 |
DaemonFC[m] | Turns out that he's the only one in the room who even ends up caring what happens to her if they make her a police detective. | Jul 22 20:17 |
DaemonFC[m] | That's what diversity programs end up leading to, quite often. | Jul 22 20:17 |
DaemonFC[m] | People who are there to fill quotas, who leapfrog people who did better on the qualifications exam. | Jul 22 20:18 |
DaemonFC[m] | I don't really care if there are women in combat roles in the military, or black people running a big company, or in the White House. | Jul 22 20:19 |
DaemonFC[m] | The qualifications are important, and it seems there's sometimes a lower bar over factors that simply should not matter. | Jul 22 20:19 |
DaemonFC[m] | Saying that makes you a horrible fascist. | Jul 22 20:19 |
DaemonFC[m] | In the US you can throw a rock and hit 50 incompetent CEOs at once and very nearly all of them will be white men. | Jul 22 20:20 |
DaemonFC[m] | I'll be the first one to say tat. | Jul 22 20:20 |
DaemonFC[m] | There is no meritocracy. What's happened to Linus Torvalds is what happens in business. | Jul 22 20:20 |
DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: What was all that about Linux moving to github? | Jul 22 20:21 |
DaemonFC[m] | Are they actually doing that? | Jul 22 20:21 |
MinceR | 22 202450 < DaemonFC[m]> Just to avoid having a Hexit or whatever you want to call it. | Jul 22 20:26 |
MinceR | i don't know why they'd want to avoid it | Jul 22 20:26 |
MinceR | hungary is a parasite that is spying and lobbying for putler's interests | Jul 22 20:26 |
DaemonFC[m] | The only thing a government wants to do is expand. | Jul 22 20:26 |
MinceR | and (together with the EPP and the ECR) it's killing the EU from the inside | Jul 22 20:26 |
DaemonFC[m] | You'd think that in the United States, Red Hat could find 1 black software engineer to hire. They're in a country where black people are 13.4% of the population, and headquartered in a state that's closer to 20%. | Jul 22 20:32 |

psydread | after playing Xonotic for the past few hours I realise that free software games could take a big bite out of the market for videogames the same way GNU/Linux did with proprietary operating systems and applications | Jul 22 20:33 |
MinceR | but if they did, they'd be killed like GNU/Linux is being killed | Jul 22 20:33 |
MinceR | we'd have hordes of idiots demanding and implementing "anti-cheat" rootkits, microtransactions and other bullshit like those, exclaiming that free games must be "modern" too | Jul 22 20:34 |
MinceR | we already have people demanding that Xonotic take part in the proprietary DRM platform known as "Steam" | Jul 22 20:35 |
psydroid | that's a ridiculous demand if only because Xonotic is a free software game and should be able to run on any operating system on any architecture | Jul 22 20:36 |

DaemonFC[m] | It's a red state so they don't let rapists and mass shooters out of prison to go back to Chicago for round two, or three. | Jul 22 22:40 |
DaemonFC[m] | It would be "cruel" to let those people die, so Governor One Man Mass Gathering lets them out. | Jul 22 22:41 |

DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: Apparently my uncle in Georgia, who was calling it a Democrat Hoax on Facebook a couple months ago and laughing over "mask hysteria" over a "virus that 98% of people survive", now has his son and daughter in law sick with it at the same time. | Jul 22 22:43 |
schestowitz | Those Democrat Hoaxes kill many people in many countries | Jul 22 22:44 |
schestowitz | apparently this Democrat Hoax also impacts India | Jul 22 22:44 |
schestowitz | over 1000 Indians dead today because of " Democrat Hoax" | Jul 22 22:44 |

schestowitz | which city? | Jul 22 22:54 |
schestowitz | qezon or something? | Jul 22 22:54 |
schestowitz | quezon | Jul 22 22:55 |
DaemonFC[m] | No, he told me after we got married that some old pervert in Manila did stuff to him when he was a child. | Jul 22 22:55 |
DaemonFC[m] | Tondo. I looked it up on Wikipedia. Not a good place. | Jul 22 22:55 |
schestowitz | wow | Jul 22 22:55 |
schestowitz | tondo | Jul 22 22:55 |
schestowitz | well known though | Jul 22 22:55 |
schestowitz | as the worst slum | Jul 22 22:55 |
schestowitz | or most notorious at least | Jul 22 22:55 |
schestowitz | so from tondo to demanding things like hypePhone? | Jul 22 22:55 |
schestowitz | wtf? | Jul 22 22:55 |
DaemonFC[m] | Pretty much. | Jul 22 22:56 |
DaemonFC[m] | His fucking sister. I'm telling you. | Jul 22 22:56 |
schestowitz | and if his sister if from there, you could do a TV show on it | Jul 22 22:56 |
schestowitz | Queen of Tondo | Jul 22 22:56 |
schestowitz | LOL | Jul 22 22:56 |
DaemonFC[m] | She's got narcissistic personality and some sort of psychotic mental illness. | Jul 22 22:56 |
schestowitz | girls there can barely afford to get a paid of sandals | Jul 22 22:56 |
schestowitz | *pair | Jul 22 22:56 |
DaemonFC[m] | Yeah, so she comes here and turns into this prissy bitch. | Jul 22 22:56 |
DaemonFC[m] | I know, right. | Jul 22 22:56 |
schestowitz | and now she's building up 'rackbases' of them | Jul 22 22:56 |
schestowitz | I had a friend her, whose parents immigrated from HK | Jul 22 22:57 |
schestowitz | he dates this girl from Tondo | Jul 22 22:57 |
DaemonFC[m] | Yes, you can tell that she was poor as shit and now she's overcompensating. | Jul 22 22:57 |
schestowitz | Who didn't even tell him she had a child until much later | Jul 22 22:57 |
DaemonFC[m] | It's the "trash wins the lottery" type thing. | Jul 22 22:57 |
schestowitz | they can sometimes hide a past relationship or a child for a very long time | Jul 22 22:58 |
schestowitz | I once dated this Flanagan who told me her daughter was a niece | Jul 22 22:58 |
schestowitz | so it's common to test people like this here too, describing their kids as something else | Jul 22 22:58 |
DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: I might call her the Queen of Tondo at some point. | Jul 22 22:58 |
schestowitz | Tondo is very dodgy, so sexual abuse of kids isn't too unreal | Jul 22 22:59 |
DaemonFC[m] | Just to piss her off. | Jul 22 22:59 |
schestowitz | there's little supervision and maybe some parents are paid for it | Jul 22 22:59 |
schestowitz | No, call her Tondomelda | Jul 22 22:59 |
schestowitz | that'll piss her off | Jul 22 22:59 |
DaemonFC[m] | Yeah, he says his parents were furious about it and went to the police and they got the guy. | Jul 22 22:59 |
schestowitz | because of the personality complex | Jul 22 22:59 |
schestowitz | just mention Tondo | Jul 22 22:59 |
schestowitz | that alone will piss her off | Jul 22 22:59 |
schestowitz | remind her where or what she came from | Jul 22 22:59 |
schestowitz | I am sure she's in denial about it | Jul 22 22:59 |
DaemonFC[m] | Probably. | Jul 22 23:00 |
DaemonFC[m] | I mean, shaving my head was nice. It's cheap and it really is death to vanity. | Jul 22 23:00 |
schestowitz | 969 dead | Jul 22 23:00 |
DaemonFC[m] | I was starting to pull an Elon Musk and those pictures of me look terrible. | Jul 22 23:00 |
schestowitz | texas reporrs 160 dead | Jul 22 23:01 |
DaemonFC[m] | Worse than shaving it off. | Jul 22 23:01 |
schestowitz | 3 hours more left to report/update | Jul 22 23:01 |
schestowitz | Elon Masked | Jul 22 23:01 |
DaemonFC[m] | Well, they'd better get back to "corralling the virus". | Jul 22 23:01 |
schestowitz | Masking himself... from ... himself! | Jul 22 23:01 |
schestowitz | Hey,DaemonFC[m]... LOL | Jul 22 23:02 |
schestowitz | asked her where she did number 2 | Jul 22 23:02 |
schestowitz | that'll piss her right off | Jul 22 23:02 |
DaemonFC[m] | Probably in the open street. | Jul 22 23:03 |
schestowitz | with hands | Jul 22 23:03 |
schestowitz | ask her | Jul 22 23:03 |
DaemonFC[m] | Oh god.... | Jul 22 23:03 |
schestowitz | to remind her the past | Jul 22 23:03 |
schestowitz | put her in her place if she's abusing and bullying you two | Jul 22 23:03 |
DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: Yes, I had to break him of throwing used toilet paper in the bathroom trash. | Jul 22 23:03 |
DaemonFC[m] | I go in there like "What is this?". | Jul 22 23:04 |
DaemonFC[m] | He was afraid that the toilet would back up if he flushed it. | Jul 22 23:04 |
schestowitz | OK, change subject, change subject | Jul 22 23:04 |
schestowitz | ask her if the truck brings water for her kabo | Jul 22 23:04 |
DaemonFC[m] | They're living way above their means and I smelled it as soon as I walked in the house. | Jul 22 23:05 |
schestowitz | Can't believe how she found all this ego | Jul 22 23:05 |
DaemonFC[m] | I'm like "A nurse and a physical therapist are living here?". | Jul 22 23:05 |
schestowitz | as if she owns people born in the US and can blackmail them | Jul 22 23:05 |
schestowitz | for money | Jul 22 23:05 |
schestowitz | classy | Jul 22 23:05 |
schestowitz | TV programme material | Jul 22 23:05 |
DaemonFC[m] | Then I found out that they got sued three times in a year and almost lost the house. | Jul 22 23:05 |
DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: She was trying to convince Mandy's brother to come here and clean her toilets. | Jul 22 23:06 |
DaemonFC[m] | I got on Facebook and told the guy all about her and he never replied and she's been turning everyone in the Philippines against Mandy so if he ends up there again he won't have anyone. | Jul 22 23:06 |
DaemonFC[m] | She is literally trying to kill him. | Jul 22 23:07 |
DaemonFC[m] | She sent her husband over here to snoop around one night and I caught him in the parking lot. | Jul 22 23:07 |
DaemonFC[m] | I was like "Nobody here drives a BMW....." | Jul 22 23:07 |
DaemonFC[m] | He saw me and froze and then drove off. | Jul 22 23:08 |
DaemonFC[m] | I don't care if it costs me every last damned dollar I have. He's not going back there and his sister is finished abusing him. | Jul 22 23:08 |
schestowitz | they know the motel's address? | Jul 22 23:09 |
schestowitz | seems like they've gone nuts by now | Jul 22 23:09 |
DaemonFC[m] | They do. He told them a lot because she had a way of making him tell her everything. | Jul 22 23:09 |
schestowitz | desperate chronically... that's when people get dangerous and menacing | Jul 22 23:09 |
DaemonFC[m] | They don't know which room we're in. | Jul 22 23:09 |
*psymin has quit (Quit: Leaving) | Jul 22 23:09 | |

DaemonFC[m] | She's full of it. | Jul 22 23:11 |
schestowitz | then pretend, if you speak at all to that couple (you should not), you're still in that old one | Jul 22 23:11 |
schestowitz | they'll go under soon | Jul 22 23:11 |
schestowitz | so... let the clock run its due | Jul 22 23:11 |
schestowitz | 989 dead ... | Jul 22 23:11 |
schestowitz | texas up to 180 | Jul 22 23:11 |
DaemonFC[m] | I told her, when I didn't know her that well, that I had had a seizure once in Indiana in 2009 because of some meds they had me on. | Jul 22 23:11 |
schestowitz | maybe it's the next nyc | Jul 22 23:11 |
schestowitz | nys I mean | Jul 22 23:12 |
DaemonFC[m] | So one of her threats was she'd get the state to revoke my driver's license. | Jul 22 23:12 |
schestowitz | although nyc got the worst of it | Jul 22 23:12 |
DaemonFC[m] | She acts like she can do stuff, and she can't. It's pathetic. | Jul 22 23:12 |
schestowitz | the state would not listen to bigaon | Jul 22 23:12 |
schestowitz | I am guessing it's an elder sister | Jul 22 23:13 |
DaemonFC[m] | You have to have had a seizure or have lost consciousness inexplicably within the last 12 months, and they'd have to prove it. | Jul 22 23:13 |
DaemonFC[m] | So it's not gonna happen. | Jul 22 23:13 |
schestowitz | who threatens by shaming by chikachika | Jul 22 23:13 |
schestowitz | shaming Mandy among relatives | Jul 22 23:13 |
schestowitz | basically disrespect as a weapon | Jul 22 23:13 |
schestowitz | which says more about her | Jul 22 23:13 |
DaemonFC[m] | She's got everyone around her by the balls. | Jul 22 23:14 |
DaemonFC[m] | Or the hair, in the case of her daughter. | Jul 22 23:14 |
DaemonFC[m] | Literally. | Jul 22 23:14 |

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-@schestowitz@joindiaspora.com: It's only 6pm in the US east coast and they already report over 1,000 #covid10 deaths in the US, for the second day in a row. The angry orange man won't be too happy; this con men recently lied about the numbers of deaths decreasing. | Jul 22 23:21 | |
schestowitz | *man | Jul 22 23:21 |
DaemonFC[m] | Oh well. | Jul 22 23:21 |
DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: I'm not normally one to think in terms of collective punishment. | Jul 22 23:21 |
DaemonFC[m] | The exit polls showed who stuck us with this guy. | Jul 22 23:21 |
DaemonFC[m] | Maybe watching this unfold will teach the survivors something. | Jul 22 23:22 |
DaemonFC[m] | As a group, old people are horrified of someone like Sanders because he'll spend money giving "free shit" to people who aren't them. | Jul 22 23:22 |
DaemonFC[m] | Old black voters are the reason Biden won the Democratic nomination. | Jul 22 23:23 |
DaemonFC[m] | Whichever way you cut it both parties are Republicans now and it's old people, in general, who have done this. | Jul 22 23:23 |
DaemonFC[m] | Some of the "moderate Republicans" from 15 years ago are endorsing Biden, including John Kasich. | Jul 22 23:24 |
DaemonFC[m] | So that should tell you something. | Jul 22 23:24 |
DaemonFC[m] | Biden's not interested in the "progressive" politics. He's drawing support from Bush administration people. | Jul 22 23:24 |
schestowitz | Kasich was approached by Biden | Jul 22 23:25 |
schestowitz | reportedlty | Jul 22 23:25 |
DaemonFC[m] | So a "return to normalcy" if your definition of "normal" is the 2000s under Bush, only in the aftermath of a permanently destroyed economy. | Jul 22 23:25 |
schestowitz | for VC position | Jul 22 23:25 |
schestowitz | Biden is old GOP | Jul 22 23:25 |
schestowitz | Trump is "enhanced GOP" | Jul 22 23:25 |

schestowitz | oh lordie | Jul 22 23:26 |
DaemonFC[m] | MinceR: Oh that won't happen. It's too busy robbing people blind, throwing other people in jail, and then saying "You are the state!" to all those people. | Jul 22 23:26 |
DaemonFC[m] | Ironically and sarcastically. Mocking them. | Jul 22 23:26 |

DaemonFC[m] | The House Speaker in Ohio was arrested in a bribery scandal. | Jul 22 23:27 |
DaemonFC[m] | That was funny. | Jul 22 23:27 |
DaemonFC[m] | Same thing might happen to Speaker Madigan who is "complying with the investigation", dont'cha know? | Jul 22 23:27 |
DaemonFC[m] | Here in Illinois. | Jul 22 23:27 |
schestowitz | is this the one Trump released? | Jul 22 23:27 |
DaemonFC[m] | I would not be sad to see Madigan slapped in handcuffs. | Jul 22 23:28 |
schestowitz | with a pardon/commuting the sentence? | Jul 22 23:28 |
DaemonFC[m] | That was Blagojevich. The former Governor. | Jul 22 23:28 |
DaemonFC[m] | Trump's DoJ is very interested in this "energy scandal" for some reason. | Jul 22 23:28 |
DaemonFC[m] | Sees it as a way to destroy his enemies using a corruption scandal that, yeah it's real, but omg look where it's coming from. | Jul 22 23:29 |
DaemonFC[m] | You know, "Give us the man and we'll make the case!". | Jul 22 23:30 |

DaemonFC[m] | I mean, the cops could have just chosen to tell Luis to beat it that night and leave me alone, but there's no way I'm that lucky. | Jul 22 23:30 |
DaemonFC[m] | Once bitten, twice shy. I've been watching myself very closely since then to make sure there's nothing else they can come after me with. | Jul 22 23:32 |
DaemonFC[m] | In reality, they always can. | Jul 22 23:32 |
DaemonFC[m] | Probation isn't a favor, it's an opportunity to fuck yourself up even more than a conviction. | Jul 22 23:32 |
DaemonFC[m] | See, it has 26 things you agree are a probation violation, including breaking any law or ordinance. | Jul 22 23:33 |
schestowitz | 1,111 death | Jul 22 23:33 |
schestowitz | covid having fun | Jul 22 23:33 |
schestowitz | 120 dead in CA | Jul 22 23:34 |
schestowitz | *deaths | Jul 22 23:34 |
DaemonFC[m] | So they let you go that day and they watch you. And if they catch you doing anything else, it's that, plus a misdemeanor for the probation violation, plus the original charges come back, and your guilty plea from the probation agreement is entered into evidence. | Jul 22 23:34 |
DaemonFC[m] | It's basically a "Get out of here! If I see you one more time.....ONE MORE TIME....You're finished!". | Jul 22 23:35 |
DaemonFC[m] | (From the judge.) | Jul 22 23:35 |
schestowitz | In terms of COVID-19 deaths in the US today will be worst since May. It's only getting worse, the second wave can be as deadly as the first with idiots who refuse to wear mask because "it's politics..." | Jul 22 23:36 |
DaemonFC[m] | Oh who cares? | Jul 22 23:36 |
DaemonFC[m] | Honestly, I'm being "pro life". | Jul 22 23:37 |
DaemonFC[m] | Oh well, plenty more where that came from! Who wants Denny's? | Jul 22 23:38 |
DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: I could go for some pubes in an omelette with a side of COVID. | Jul 22 23:39 |

DaemonFC[m] | "Very reasonably priced." she said | Jul 22 23:41 |
DaemonFC[m] | Then we went there and they wanted $35 for two people getting breakfast, said they'd charge more if I didn't pay cash, and there was hair in my food. | Jul 22 23:42 |
schestowitz | very expensive | Jul 22 23:42 |
DaemonFC[m] | Yeah I know. | Jul 22 23:42 |

DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: It all makes sense now. A woman from Tondo with no money management skills at all, who bought eyeglasses for $1,300 and brags about it.... | Jul 22 23:45 |
DaemonFC[m] | Says this place is "reasonable". | Jul 22 23:45 |
DaemonFC[m] | I felt pretty fucked over by Walmart's prices on eyeglasses when I found out how easy it was to get them from Zenni for about 20% that much, and Walmart was about $200. | Jul 22 23:46 |
DaemonFC[m] | I was like "Who the hell is paying $1,300 _a pair_ for glasses?". | Jul 22 23:47 |
DaemonFC[m] | The whole family wears glasses. Do the math. | Jul 22 23:47 |
DaemonFC[m] | She's throwing thousand dollar bills around like it's nothing and wants Mandy's Walmart money while I'm in bankruptcy. | Jul 22 23:48 |
DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: That Gojo's place is probably not going to reopen. | Jul 22 23:48 |
DaemonFC[m] | They seemed to be barely getting by with no virus. | Jul 22 23:48 |
DaemonFC[m] | They've got a tent outside where you can get your nasty overpriced food now. | Jul 22 23:48 |
