  • My therapist has talked to me a lot about acceptance. I accept that it’s terrifying and we should fight back.

    That’s still easier to live with than accepting what happened in my previous marriage.

    We can individually contribute to resisting the regime. For LGBTQ, minorities, and people with disabilities simply surviving is active resistance.

    I can’t do anything to make my ex unfuck the other dude.












  • So the death stills are so efficient that all of the water gets extracted. So from a 180lb man you should get about 50L of water. (~110lbs)

    All that is left is dehydrated organs, tissues and bone - various organic molecules.

    You didn’t think they just built all their technology from spice and worms did you? (jk I think they bury the organic remains. You probably wouldn’t want to look at the body after either in any circumstances).

    Yeah that’s my go to as well.

    It takes the power out of their curse.

    I’m for progress. Not for staying the same or regressing. Not for unrestricted freedom. But for guaranteed freedoms.

    1. Freedom to speak.
    2. Freedom to peacefully organize and associate as desired.
    3. The freedom inherent in due process.
    4. The freedom to be healthy.
    5. The freedom to be educated.
    6. The freedom to be sheltered.
    7. The freedom to eat clean food, water, and breathe clean air.
    8. The freedom to vote.
    9. The freedom to have or abstain from faith.
    10. The freedom to disagree, so long as it doesn’t interfere with the previous freedoms.


  • Oddly enough, I just learned today apparently Hitler didn’t demand the German military to swear an oath, two Generals came up with the idea to have the military swear to Hitler in hopes of drawing him away from the Nazi Party. Which clearly didn’t work as they planned.

    After this article, with this other knowledge, I would be willing to bet that shits going to get REAL fucky.

    If they ask these officers to commit high treason then that’s it. The military is there to protect constitution. With no military to protect it, no court to uphold it, no congress to abide it then the United States is truly over. (Though I still maintain that was April 15, 2025).

    There’s a tiny, tiny, tiny possibility that we are too pessimistic and that maybe they do mean “they’d die for the country.” They could simply recite the oath theyve already sworn, and be completely legally protected.

    I, [name], do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God

    Trump, and Hegseth, aren’t men of honor. They seen honor as a joke, a weakness. Nonsense. To me that appears to be expected from them, as honor requires empathy, which they lack.

    The question then becomes do our senior officers have empathy?


  • IDK. Hegseth summoning of the military officers still strikes me as weird.

    If Trump bites it, Vance becomes President, but Hegseth stays the Secretary of Defense (I will not call it war, just to piss them off). So there’s no internal power struggle.

    But Vance has no military knowledge, and would unlikely be able to have any useful things to order. Since Hegseth does, and he’s quite brain damaged, I wonder if this was some sort of “y’all, orders are going to be coming from me as if they were ordered by the prezzy himself.”

    So I think it’s just all a distraction from the fact that the regime only has a concept of an idea of a plan.
