@plenartowicz That guy made his choices. I feel many of his choices were driving by mental issues he failed to address. He made it impossible for people to care about him. This isn't the fault of others, or society.
Many years ago I knew a guy, who I am reminded of with the Elon Musk news. This guy was apparently a pretty good software engineer, and people either liked him, or thought he was a creepy SOB. I knew the guy, but never thought much of him, good or bad. I did have many people come to me to complain about the guy, and several say he was a sweetheart. At times he would go off on abusive tantrums blaming people for his own issues. I was targeted by him like this once... But honestly I didn't care.
Fast forward several years, and his went missing. And no one noticed. For WEEKS, I mean, his boss and co-workers didn't notice. His family didn't. Eventually someone went around his house and found out his house cats had been eating him.
If EM didn't have vast amounts of cash, no one would pay attention to him. Just because he DOES, doesn't mean we have to.
Leave him to his cats, in your mind, and reality.
@Strandjunker , I'm not sure I want middle school students reading 'Camp of the Saints' or 'The Turner Diaries.' I don't know how to make this a rule to follow in general, but I can accept there are lines that I feel should not be crossed.
@BeckyBunzy I think many of the accounts I followed will not migrate, but that's OK, because I will find new accounts to follow. This isn't the 1st time a platform has failed. Remember AOL? Myspace? Facebook?? We move on, and find new people who post thirst pics. ;)
@godpod , he had a side gig?
@westslopemel , my son 2 years after the event still can't smell or taste things. Who knows what other damage he sustained... You are very lucky, and hope you keep taking precautions.
It was the reinstatement of Kanye that tipped the scales for me.
It is hard to get people to understand that those folks they have been chatting with for years are enabling that dirty guy screaming for you to take your top off, and leaving marks. They can't pay their tab and leave yet. I don't know how to help them see.
@kathygriffin Damn, it's my chicken suit! I posted that, saw my thumbnail, and THERE IT IS!!! The red lint source!!
@kathygriffin I am doing a deep investigation into the source of the red fibers in the lint in my belly-button. I am vastly entertained, and discovered a t-shirt I had been missing for awhile.
@freemo , I would miss ice cream.

If you say “F* Elon” it spells something Trump soon will be.
Coincidence?
@georgetakei , I would love to see this live... but, Kentucky. Sigh. So I bought the DVD.
I will say, there are very few artists that I respect more than you, for your work, and for your actions outside of work. Shout out to Cloney, but for marrying Amal Clooney. :)
Shootings
@lavenderlens , I find myself terrified that the insane will discover how much more deadly spraying gasoline on people and tossing a match at them is. In the US, the largest school killing in our history was done that way. Club Q shows that if you use a gun, at least against adult, it can be taken from you and used to beat you to the point your mother won't recognize you.

There seems to be a lot of misconceptions about how to set up Mastodon.
1. You do not have to sacrifice a duck. Any waterfowl will do.
2. The bit about dancing around naked in a forest glade? While dancing is fun, you may just walk.
3. When the demon appears, you needn’t chant in Latin. It is fluent in all languages.
The rest of the guide is correct.
Good writeup on the guy who stopped the Club Q shooter.
@antares I think torturing the cussed is a perfectly acceptable activity. I got innocent teachers plugging in movie projectors, janitors plugging in vacuums, and any poor random undeserving souls I could target. For about a month, the school was plagued with this. I was horrid. I don't know why I suddenly remembered this, but I did this.
I just remembered something horrible I did in middle school. I took basic electronics, which meant we did things like learn how to wind an electric motor. So we had really thin copper wire... which we quickly learned was great to wrap a invisible strand around things that needed to be plugged in... Not sure WHY I remember that, and I feel guilty about laughing at the memory...
@godpod @georgetakei Just for example, the Teapot Dome scandal, the worst public corruption scandal in American history, had effects from 1922 to 2015, when the government finally sold off the oil field involved.
