  • Also, be aware that if it is debit and not credit card, it can take quite a while for the hold to come off. This isn’t on the gas station, it’s on how quickly your bank handles them. My bank it’s around 2-3 business days, but I know some it can be up to four weeks. Granted, this is my experiences in Asia and around Europe, but wouldn’t be surprised if it’s the same in the US.

    If you think that’s the case, confirm with your bank before you using it and accidentally end up with a few hundred on your account just stuck there for a while.





  • This place, it hosts many personalities that are unable to empathise. It’s why a simple comment reminding people to tap into empathy for fellow humans, reminding people to aim energy responsibly, it ends with this behaviour instead.

    It really doesn’t matter for the cause if the behaviour is just as toxic as the opponent, though. A piece of shit is just a piece of shit, no matter how much they claim morality.

    But in this case, they’re doing exactly what their opponent wants them to do. And if there’s a lack of empathy, a lack of seeing the hypocrisy, I doubt there’s much hope for clarity on that as well.


  • Hey, I’m gonna go out there and say plenty of them are Mr Garrisons. We see the same shit in any force. If you need headcount, offer the poor enough and they’ll do it. Nit because they agree, but because shits so fucked they’re being offered silver lining and more.

    Always send your energy toward the head of the snake. Those coordinating, those leading. ICE grunts are riddled with fuckheads, but some of them are not. ICE team leaders are guaranteed fuck heads. Up and up and up, the bigger the fuck headery. Aim for the head.

    Every force in history has socially worked this way

    I was at a trivia night and a question was, “Apart from humans, what’s the two highest populated species in the animal kingdom?”

    Now, I’m not the smartest brain inhabiting a future corpse, but I did do basics in school.

    I say to my group, “Maybe plankton? But I don’t know if there’s some technicality over that being a plant or something. If I were to guess, probably ants and then flies.” We agreed and went with that.

    NOPE!!!

    Cats and dogs apparently!!!

    This didn’t even make sense to us if considering just the mammals.

    I protested.

    The quiz master said “The question is about the animal kingdom.”

    “Well, if insects aren’t animals, what are they?”

    He dug in his heels, we weren’t getting the points. And to make things even more bizarre, most other teams said cats and/or dogs to get 1 or 2 points.

    We found a new trivia night.

    “neurodivergent” is just this era’s temporary term for identifying an individual that is less in line with current social standards of “norm”. Historically, more and more are socially labelled as such until the norm is the minority.

    Take away the ideas of a society or even society itself and there is absolutely nothing wrong with anyone currently rocking the label. In fact theyre likely an entity that outperforms the “average” human. Combined with the species being socially competitive to get the most of things, stemming from being the most naturally persistent “be the best” nature that led to bring the dominant species, those of a more “traditional” social bound come up with these terms in fear of their irrelevance or being devalued.

    Don’t acknowledge the label. Just be you. The label is an artificial social problem of other’s and has nothing to do with you and your existence.








  • I think this is how you find out you’re God. Or at least should have god-like powers.How good are you at sadism and are you a cunt to your son? Do you often find yourself threatening lives to eternal torture if they don’t accept your love and moral superiority while worshipping you for it? Can you do good at the click of a finger but just don’t because fuck 'em, that’s why?

    If none of these things, try worming tablets.
