@scribus Mission accomplished oh crap it's a T REX!

Calming my FrankerZ is so much easier by night. Unless that's just because I'm home. Intoxicated.

I REALLY need to change this CUSSING avatar it is making everything I say look like I'm a crotchety old coot instead of the crotchety aging nut I really am!
-
That's the thing. I don't see Law and Order as one and the same, or even necessarily as parts of a set. They can serve to compliment each other, but I see Law as people telling people what to and not to do, whereas I see Order as just people behaving themselves, man. I like Order. I'm wary of Law.

@moonman And does this "date an admin" offer still stand?
-
@nerthos I mean, I can see fair to legitimately say it was a "psychological assault," but again, it didn't give me so much as a "mental black eye," you know? I vented my bile, now it's more funny than anything.

you'll never get me!! *runs off*

Also I couldn't describe them better than "hilariously non-threatening to me, personally, aside from the Bat-Belts." Like, if you're gonna thug, maybe try being actually hard instead of just hardware?

@nerthos Not to the best of my knowledge. And since nothing came of it, I don't think I really have issue enough to complain.

ACAB, but not ABAC!

@nerthos Yeah. In my usage of ACAB it's more reflective of the state than the nature, I guess.

(Is this just a sly way of me saying "more people should be dead" over again? Who can say!?)

Maybe if we had a lower, less-dense population, Anarchy would stand a better chance. Seems like proto-Communism worked well enough in small, tight tribes.

@nerthos Thank you for dragging that out of me. Ordering my thoughts has helped me master my emotions about the incident.
-
@nerthos Anyway, on a good day I'm just a hair on the bleaker side of the issue, but today I saw an increased presence on the train, asked if there were reason for concern, and found myself cornered and outnumbered by two guys in uniform acting exactly like street thugs. I don't hate cops, not by default; I just hate the cops we've ended up with, for whatever reasons we've ended up with them. And, another aside, I probably would stand a chance of being a real-deal Anarchist if I were more optimistic. As it stands, I'm kind of a de-facto "leave me alone, don't make me hurt you" almost-anarchy-fan? :p
-
@nerthos Well, "hate" is a strong word, even for the immediate moment, but I've never exactly "liked" cops. I want to. I want to believe that they're the self-sacrificing Good Guys who want to make a positive difference in their communities. At all times I'm as wary of them as I am of anybody else carrying a weapon, but that's beside the point. But, like anything else, really, it's a job, and it's a mixed bag. So that's fine. I still want to like what they represent, except... as of late, they haven't been representing protection of the individual as much as I would like and have been focusing on protecting the status quo (often at the expense of the individual). For all I know, it's always been like that. Again, beside the point. (This is raising flags in my "the good of the many over the good of the few" sectors; but, to calm that, I believe people should choose the greater good, not have it forced on them). Wow, this is getting longwinded... Phew.

I mean, a new incident, but of the same old nature.

@nerthos Nothing new.

Christ, I hate cops. To plagiarize BoJack Horseman, giving a jerk a gun and telling him it's OK to kill people doesn't make that jerk a hero.

Alternately, I totally typed "potato vodka" there, how does the post says "beer?" #mandelaeffect

@mrmattimation Depending on the beer, as I understand it.
