Just talked to a little old lady and her husband in the Grocery store today. They asked me why our roads were in such horrible condition. They were from AZ and were like...don't you pay high taxes ? where does your money go...sigh

I tried that. Lived in Washington DC for a while.

VA best commonwealth in the Union

Food was too expensive.

dont live in NOVA

Mmm, I got family in VA.

Northern VA btw lol

Western Vanilla Virginia.

I just need to get in away from the coast I'm thinking.

I've been up there a few times. Great views.

Shenandoah valley area ?

Naah

I've got an entire clan from Kingsport TN to Marion.

aaah Marion

Meth central according to someone i know who lives there sadly

Eh.

idk if its still bad doh

my drug of choice is coffee ...black

i just remember he talked about it sometimes

mines soda probs lol

I figure I needed 1 vice to I aimed low :P

Same. Can't do coffee.

ill do coffee but tons of creamer and sugar

Also addiction runs in my father's side of the family, so I won't even seriously touch alcohol.

that sucks but good on you

so you take coffee with your condiments?

suuuure

i guess

:O

What's the deal with the last two livestreams? Is YT removing them immediately after they end?

I'll take tea with cream and sugar.

if its a good brew ill take it black

I like tea as well

he's not uploading them iirc @possumsquat93

yeah I don't like am/pm coffee

cause it throttles him otherwise

based on my understanding

i only drink it in the morning but only if i have enough time

otherwise i grab a soda lol

I've been up to a 2L a day at my worst.

I can drink coffe late at night just fine but if I drink soda or like a mocha it messes me up. I think its the sugar with caffeine together that makes me a mess

I've brought it down to, like, 4 cans a day. 😛

wow

well peeps it has been a blast I will have to say hi another time. it was nice to meet you all /wave

actually how much is 2L in cans?

Later and nice to meet you too!

about 68 oz

Huh.

I guess that's not that much better.

Kinda puts things in perspective.

lel

At least my soda of choice curbs the sugar a fair bit.

I take the green label coca colas.

@possumsquat93 i think so might be on his other channel though? but im sure it'll be up at some point

It's not on his other channel.

no?

ok

He should probably create a livestream channel though.

if he hasn't already.

maybe

also regarding the soda thing, id try to cut down cause i drank so much that my doctor said it could harm my kidney's

yea tbh i normally watch livestreams after the fact more often than not

Yeah, I take southern tea when I can.

cause then i can pause when ive got stuff to do

water

tea's good too

but more water is always better

Actually, I don't even like southern style tea. I usually only add a cup to a gallon.

Enough so that I get the sweetness of the sugar, and the bitterness of the tea.

i thinkk ive had like 6 sodas today and i already feel shitty about it not that we're talking about it

that's, like, 2 liters.

KEK

almost all Dr. Pepper

fug i gotta stop

Green Teas good too

cold or hot

Before I cut out the soft drinks, Dr. Pepper was my jam.

I think it's also worth mentioning that I'm ADHD, and the caffeine helps me with it.

so, that might contribute to my perceived need for it.

finally someone not shitting on DP

lol

ah makes sense

i guess i have ADD but largely grew out of it by high school by using self imposed coping mechanisms

DP was made in Texas. Can't shit on DP.

Well... I can, kind of. On a corporate level. Slightly.

ya know i oddly appreciate the minimalism of this server, like i joined a couple others and its waaaay to much to process

They never should've stopped Dublin Bottling Company from making their pure cane sugar Dr. Pepper.

yea shitting on corporate's fine

On the other hand, Dublin's doing just fine now that they're running their own product line.

nice

what they making again?

Product line posted in Shitposting.

ye

def would try it

I worked at a place that put that on tap for a while.

I got tot try it all

nice

Well, not ALL of it...

I've got a healthy respect for businesses that sell 'craft sodas'

I think this is what supporters of Craft beer feel like.

Except beer just tastes like liquid bread with a burn to me.

http://www.hurriyetdailynews.com/turkey-us-agree-to-approve-roadmap-on-syria-131014

no matter what kind I've tasted.

ugh.

We should be staying out of Syria. -_-

Try hard Cider

VA has alot of breweries and such pop up lately

wines become less popular it seems

I gotta head out.

but yea as for Syria its a mess to say the least

gotcha have a good one

nice to meet you

https://www.jpost.com/International/Fallout-from-the-Turkey-Iran-Russia-meeting-549022

I have a tendency to follow Turkey related stuff as my Poly-Sci final was a independent study paper on Turkey's prospects of joining the EU and I wrote about the "coup" as it was happening.

http://www.foxnews.com/us/2018/04/27/parkland-teacher-under-fire-for-allegedly-calling-pro-second-amendment-student-kyle-kashuv-hitler-in-class.html

jesus

I‘m usually not for firing people for being stupid... but a history teacher calling a jew a „hitler type“ is baffling to me... and i really question the teachers qualification here... and it happened in class, in front of other students...

<:astolfocomfy:391060512752009226> if the teacher didn't confront the dood on twitter or encourage other students to join in on his rant I would think just having him change classes would be reasonable

No bulli <:feelsbadman:356903315147063307>

Suspension without pay for rest of the school year then come back next year or something else like that makes sense to me but I'm no school principal or anything <:lurk:270563112674000896>

No fire <:pillowno:393462931116785671>

Is this the parkland kid or the ken bone kid?

Parkland.

His teacher called him the next hitler.

Ohh i see it now.

Yeah... How do they respond to Hitler using gun controll to disarm jews?

Anyhow, I want to know they reasoning for it.

You expect logic from them?

No, but even an idiot has a method of coming to a certain conclusion

And It is a topic I wish I could study if I took the proper courses for that.

And well... If I had some good subjects to discuss with

It’s called emotion. That’s how they get their conclusions although it is the most illogical thing ever.

Still, its something I consider worth questioning. Emotion is instinctive.

Also, even then, it could change minds. Well, asking them to consider how they got there.

It’s I feel emotional about (thing) so how can I get other people to be emotional about (thing)? I could compare (thing) to Hitler because everyone hates hitler thus triggering emotion in them too.

Thing is, how much of it is intentional, or is simply an echo of someone stating that opinion

Not sure but I think it’s a bit of both.

Well, I guess its one thing, I dont like blaming a person for coming to any conclusion.

Depends if they have an agenda or are just misinformed.

They trust a source, hence they repeat that source.

The term "useful idiots" applies here

Right. I don’t blame them but I do blame the people doing it intentionally.

Hard to know the difference sometimes though.

Well, I am not relligious, but I do recall the bible mentioning, well, warning people to be careful of prophets who will lead people to sin.

Like the current pope.

False prophets.

People will believe crazy stuff if you tell them god said it. (see radical Islam)

THing is it kinda applies here and to anything, it can be applied to prophets who lead their followers to kill.

Same for feminists and socialists. kill people, remove rights, for the greater good.

Which are religions in a way.

Tim had a video about how intersectionality was a religion.

Ive seen many people echo that sentiment. Milo, Shapiro, PJW, Joe Rogan, and I think even Peterson said that.

Idk he has in previous videos, but Tim should make a few videos outlining how to do good research on a topic, that way we can give him a hand. Then he has a reason to shill the discord because more people means more reseachers who can give him a hand.

Tim should get some random guy to wear a beanie in front of the camera to do daily videos while he flies around to research really big news stories that will get millions of views when they are published.

Thing is, trust is important.

We are just faceless individuals who like to chat.

Also. Think it will reflect well on him when word goes out that he relies on unpaid researchers

when peterson says something is a religion he means the beliefs someone holds as axiomatic

we all have them, as you gotta start from something

so ye, when you belief something is racist no matter what, regardless of evidence, that is a religion as that is the axiom you live by, all other contrary pieces of knowledge must be flawed some way

At least relligion has a redemption arc.

But born white, am racist no matter what

Actually, personal experience. I use grab here sometimes to get to the train station. Ive gotten malay drivers occasionally. Well twice so far. And well, I love to chat with anyone in general and well, grab drivers tend to be chatty. They were kinda racist. Here we do get some africans (mostly somalians and nigerians). Problem is, when you hear of either, its usually some nigerian scamming someone, an issue with somalian pirates, or some african guy smuggling drugs. So theres a rather negetive reception of them, except its very, well, kept under wraps.

its almost as if people simplefy the world in order to possibly percieve it

Huh, I never saw it that way.

facts of the matter are, races do matter, there are significant racial differences in things like crime and murder, and although a single person might not hold the correct belief because he is biased by his own personal experience, on average the societies they live in will produce an average effect. the effort put into mending out group animosity is imense, and it has to be, ad there are things the outgroups do that are not ok with the in group at all

Well, thats true, the larger something is, a small change will result in a noticable change in averages.

That dosent only apply to society.

Sure it sucks for the people who do want to make a change.

But reality is reality, some will have to work harder to gain respect.

@GingaBomber there is a difference between unpaided researches and volunteer reseachers. And it doesn't mean he doesn't have to vet the sources we provide, just make it easier for him so all he has to do is review the references linked, and over time, if we fact check one another, he might have an easier time with things. And that might mean more time interacting with us, lmao

We'd be buying Tim's time with research, lmao

Good point there then.

Eh, Ill look then if he starts doing that.

Also, whats with tim saying about vlogs?

He gonna start doing more casual stuff?

Cause its such a shame that YT isnt great for news.

And dosent help that there is definately some favouritsm when it comes to channels.

He could go the whole styx route lol.

dont post camel, you might attract the splody tribe

wow

https://twitter.com/Nigel_Farage/status/990271041506369536

what the fuck

the replies are fucking stupid

UK is gone

you should see the replies Trump gets on twitter

oh I sometimes look

the problem is one of the replies is the Dr he's talking about

and there's support for that Drs that

said Alfie would die within minutes but isntead suffered for 4 days, starved and oxygen deprived

how can you be human

and support that?

i dont think these people support "that" as much as that they're just "against" nigel

as shown by that reply that says Nigel should be hung for speaking at an AfD rally in germany

"Come on people..what possible reason would the nhs have to kill Alfie..He was extremely brain damaged and removing him from the hospital would cause him even more harm..."

"Actually no it just sounded like the truth"

hmm reading through those replies you're right

dem people is messed up

Yeah if it was simple people agains Farrage, that's fair game

that's not what I'm referring to

those exist, yes

By "medical establishment" do you mean doctors ?

I believe they study, intensively, for 10 years to become qualified.

What are you qualifications to comment on this issue ?

well that says enough about those people doesn't it

yup

"oh he studied for 10 years, so he must be smart"

On topic of today's video, I think we've got yet another example of 'Red Pilled' being automatically assumed to mean far right, when it really should mean free-thinking.

Sorry to interrupt your thread, I just wanted to say that before going to work...

lets face it, "red pilled" is the right-wing term for being "woke"

Lets face it, 'Liberal' is left wing.

Lets face it, 'Racism' is power + prejudice

darn shame, Liberal used to mean Liberal

nowadays Liberal means stalinist

Socialist more like it

Because we let it.

liberal-socialist

Because semantic campaigns are so low key, we don't even notice they're happening until we've lost language.

liberal in name only

i swear to god, i'm starting to think i've gone insane in this society

Liberals want to take freedom away and hang people for different opinions

Freedom of Speech is a fascist ideal

Kanye West is speaking reason

'War is Peace, Freedom is Slavery, Ignorance is Strength' - 1984.

i'm about 5 of these 180-flips of reality away from flinging my poop at people and eating flies

still these things are all worth it if trump wins 2020 and the left will have another meltdown

wait, tim is going into daily livestream mode?

appears so

he has to

thats good

his superchat income is probably 10x daily videos

yeah

it will spike and level out as goes away from being a novelty

and now we can finally settle the debate on whether or not his beanie grows like hair, or that it remains the same size 🤔

he absolutely needs to sell logo'd beanies

so obvious

if he wants superchat money, he needs a "questions for cat" segment 😛

where people ask questions about his cat

its not his cat

its Emily's

same appartment

yup

besides he keeps zooming at it

so surely he knows stories

pretty sure he's not a fan of the cat

about how the cat and the beanie used to be part-time crime solvers

Fur and the Woolie

why wouldnt he be a fan of the cat?
