00:01 DaemonFC; Car payments are a bitch
00:01 DaemonFC; If you miss them, they take the car.
00:01 DaemonFC; If they take the car, you won't have transportation to try to look for another job or to get to the new job.
00:02 DaemonFC; You could set a spike strip behind the car to force it to stop if they try to repo it like this.
00:03 DaemonFC; But they'd just add the cost of new tires and a tow to what you owe them.
00:04 DaemonFC; Matt GOOOOOOOOOOOOLAG works on this kind of crap.

00:05 DaemonFC; Now stuff to make owning a car even worse.

00:24 DaemonFC; They rehash the entire story so far like some sort of Star Wars scroll.

00:36 TR Bot; Can Felons Hold Public Office? Is It Legal?
00:36 DaemonFC; Nine states ban felons from holding public office forever.
00:37 DaemonFC; Basically, the law says you can't ever vote again, and then the other law says you have to be a registered voter in a precinct where you're running for office.
00:37 MinceR; new cars are just getting worse and worse
00:37 DaemonFC; If you register to vote as a felon, you commit another felony.
00:37 DaemonFC; 9 states is actually an improvement.
00:37 DaemonFC; It was abotu half of them 10 years ago.
00:38 DaemonFC; In Illinois, you can vote from jail, but you can't vote from prison.
00:38 MinceR; i thought those were the same thing
00:38 DaemonFC; Not exactly, no.
00:39 DaemonFC; Jail is county. Prison is state.
00:39 DaemonFC; The thinking was that misdemeanor offenders and felons with under a year remaining might be in county jails, so they can vote.
00:39 TR News; [cat] gemini://nytpu.com/cheetahs/D848.jpg
00:39 DaemonFC; But increasingly, the state has been solving its budget problems by forcing counties to imprison felons in jail, even if they have longer than a year.
00:40 TR News; [cat] gemini://nytpu.com/sneps/D518.jpg
00:40 DaemonFC; Since this comes at the expense of the county, the sentences have been getting shorter for felonies because the county jail doesn't have room for them all.
00:40 DaemonFC; And most misdemeanors don't get jail time at all.

02:12 DaemonFC; I think if he gets an attorney, he should submit all of this to the court in the stabbing case and plead Insanity.
02:12 DaemonFC; They'll probably put him in a strait jacket and give him some major antipsychotics if they get ahold of this, but that's what needs to be done. It needed to be done over 10 years ago if anyone was paying attention, but Microsoft hired him.
02:12 DaemonFC; How is a person who writes things like this even not setting off alarms just being in the same room as the hiring manager?"

02:23 DaemonFC; "The sort of media he tends to consume and create along with his writing sort of shows a pattern forming of an increasingly generalized anger, which could indicate an unprovoked knifing, as it could simply go along with the decompensation.
02:23 DaemonFC; If I had to guess, although this would be speculation, he sexually objectifies women in general, and complains that he doesn't have a girlfriend or wife. He probably has unhealthy sexual obsessions which would lead to porn hoarding and further disconnect from reality. Incel? Possible repressed homosexuality?"

02:29 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], I am not a psychiatrist but I've studied it quite a lot in my free time.
02:29 DaemonFC; It's hard to say what is wrong with this man.
02:29 DaemonFC; The drugs didn't help, but why did he start abusing drugs?
02:29 DaemonFC; He claims they started in 2015 with pot.
02:29 DaemonFC; That was 8 years ago.
02:29 DaemonFC; He's 25.
02:30 DaemonFC; So he would have been about 17/18.
02:30 DaemonFC; It could be teenage drug experimentation that escalated.
02:30 DaemonFC; But if you read his earlier entries, in 2011 he talks of a childhood so troubled that his mother ran out of money and they had to live in a house with the power shut off.
02:31 DaemonFC; So 12/13 had that going on.
02:31 DaemonFC; Parents divorced.
02:31 DaemonFC; Mom had a "boyfriend".
02:31 DaemonFC; Children with no father have a lot of difficulties and are much more likely to engage in violent crime and drug use throughout their life.

02:44 DaemonFC; I liked Gale. But there were a lot of eccentricities.
02:44 DaemonFC; In the show, he was not violent. Or crazy. He didn't hurt anyone directly (just made a lot of meth).
02:44 DaemonFC; He was a vegan.
02:44 DaemonFC; He had this lab journal and he wrote down a lot of vegan recipes and personal stuff in it.
02:45 DaemonFC; "11:09 p.m. - I ate two chili dogs. They were mediocre like eating them on ketamine."
02:47 DaemonFC; "December 22, 2022: 7:22 a.m. - I just weighed out 90 mg of caffeine. I'm hoping the synergy will give me a nice masturbating experience before I work out. As expected, now I am admiring the beauty of Taylor and ESi, two of the most beautiful girls I've ever seen. I made the right decision having sex with them. They are drop dead 10/10 women, and I could have been waiting the rest of my life for women that beautiful. I couldn't find anyone
02:47 DaemonFC; as beautiful as them in all my time walking Atlanta, GA. I'm definitely still smitten. The caffeine definitely is increasing my appreciation of them.
02:47 DaemonFC; 9:46 p.m. - I'm getting an additional 60 mg of caffeine."
02:47 DaemonFC; I wonder if he's writing down the time based on a quartz clock.

03:31 DaemonFC; while. I have visuals lol. I smoked and vaped some DMT. That should hold my immune system steady. I must not use any more dissociative drugs until I am sure that I am done with the coronavirus. I read that dextromethorphan proliferates the coronavirus. I know that 3-MeO-PCP will do the same. It is a miracle I am alive honestly. I have weed and DMT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
03:32 DaemonFC; "June 10, 2020: After 110 days, my amphetamine withdrawal appears to have hit a peak. This is about the same time 2 years ago that I wanted to kill myself. I can feel those feelings returning along with a strong desire to use more amphetamine. I accidentally spammed my Verizon chat rambling about ADHD. It is strange, because I haven't felt this way in a while (the MDMA really helped until now). I felt bad before, and I even had the shivers
03:32 DaemonFC; a few days after I quit. But I didn't want to kill myself until just about right now. I even took a large dose of MDMA four days ago. It is quite strange."
03:32 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], How did he get a job reference after that?
03:32 DaemonFC; "June 12, 2020: I took a COVID-19 antibody test today. They were yelling for me to get out because I "had symptoms". I didn't have symptoms. I had to yell "WHAT?" because the doctor manager guy threatened to call the cops on me. The nurse girls were nice though they wanted me to leave too. They didn't even know how much blood they took from me. I had to tell them it was like 30 mL.
03:32 DaemonFC; "
03:36 DaemonFC; "June 15, 2020: I think I'm finally 100% coronavirus free. I coughed my last phlegm about 5 days ago. That marks exactly 90 days I've recorded coronavirus symptoms. March 13 is when I recorded my first symptom. That's a long lasting virus. I also have 3.74 BTC now. I'm worth 35k."
03:37 DaemonFC; "A rainbow dude came in stabbing with a knife when I had my eyes closed. I realized 2C-C was a norepinephrine releasing agent, and I saw my big ass norepinephrine dick manifested as rainbow hand growing six feet from out my dick. Sombitch. WTF! I took 80 mg oral 2C-C. I was bored on 150 ug ETH-LAD. I saw a goofy looking rainbow Dragon curling and looking at me from the ETH-LAD and then I was like woah because I snorted like 15 mg 2C-C and shit
03:37 DaemonFC; went down."
03:39 DaemonFC; "~July 2020: Anna bought some weed from me, and suspiciously said it was in all ones. I think she wanted to inspire me to go to the strip club. I can't help but wonder if she is a part of this conspiracy to infect me with an STD and use my ADHD to find a cure. Ece seems like she could be one of those government agents in training. She could be a foreign spy.
03:39 DaemonFC; July 5, 2020: It's 7:45 and I just messaged Anna on Discord again. I told her about my MDMDA I took. I snorted like 75 mg and got pretty high. I jacked off for 4 hours, and then again for like 45 minutes, and then again for like 20 minutes."

I'm in debt to sleep by 25 hours if I needed 32 hours over 24 hours. The euphoria I get from looking into girls' eyes has now faded after 4 days. I was staring into women's eyes in porn on my TV when I wasn't jacking off for an hour at a time. Jacking off on 2-FMA was amazing. I like taking time to revel. I'm
03:43 DaemonFC; reveling right now. I'm going to complete my Microsoft. I might start talking into my phone, "I'm going to cut you off" and then put up my phone. My left leg hurts a lot as I lay down in bed, because I stood up in front of my mirror watching The Boondocks and Idiocracy on my TV. I've been standing up most of these past 5 days. Lol I said fuck you to Teja not long ago. I'm pretty sure I forgot. I'm not sure because I thought she was
03:43 DaemonFC; sending people from Verizon to come kill me when I woke up and quit. Some crazy lady named Britney called the cops on me. She randomly looked out the window and screamed with wide eyes, "Fuck you." So I said, "Fuck you." The cop and her were beating around the bush with me for a second, so I asked to leave and left. I ended up going to the strip club later that day."

03:49 schestowitz[TR]; marked the bits of the call that are relevant
03:49 DaemonFC; "December 1, 2021: The job search is dismal. There is no intent to help me. Anyone who knows anything about my disorder intends to exploit me and any future disordered people with things like: Tourettes, schizophrenia, and people with better natural COVID immunity. I once heard some Indian guy at Verizon Connect say, "Ooh schizo" loudly behind my desk around the time they mentioned that Lindberg MARTA thing with the cops. I still wonder if
03:49 DaemonFC; Teja gave me something in my drink before I left for the MARTA. Her mention of drinking creeped me out. I have to leave Atlanta because I've been so cheated and had to discover everything myself. I still don't know anyone else with my disorder, and it looks like there may actually be nobody else. I keep writing this over and over. Eventually I'll be able to solve this problem."
03:50 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], Here's a GOOD one.
03:50 DaemonFC; "February 28, 2022: 1:39 a.m. - Speed Timer v1.2:
03:50 DaemonFC; Android version
03:50 DaemonFC; 3:38 a.m. - I applied to Microsoft for their neurodiversity hiring listing. I remember when I first started sending out applications, I said I didn't have a disability because it wasn't on the list of things like Autism and HIV. After some more thought, I realized my disorder of ADHD is a debilitating disorder that should be mentioned for government records for fair employment. I've been choosing not to disclose that information for most of
03:50 DaemonFC; my applications. Now, I've decided it's in my best interest to note I do have a disability on my job applications."
03:50 DaemonFC; Neurodiversity Hiring Listing!
03:50 DaemonFC; LOL
03:51 DaemonFC; They hired him BECAUSE he's fucking crazy and they could say he's disabled in their statistics to the govt.
03:51 DaemonFC; "March 2, 2022: 3:02 a.m. - My phone will cease to be functional soon. My dog is running out of food. I am running out of food. There doesn't appear to be any point in continuing my failure of a job search the past 18 months. Clearly the rich folk have some sort of continuity of their sadistic plan that has been facilitated the past 19.5 months after I got that STD. If I am to be kept in a dark, it shall not be among the living. If I am
03:51 DaemonFC; to die, it shall not be more slowly than the last decree of the people around me. I shall die better than I lived."
03:52 DaemonFC; "March 4, 2022: 5:39 a.m. - My lower left jaw didn't stop hurting until I woke up at 11:20 last night.
03:52 DaemonFC; 6:43 a.m. - I don't have T-Mobile service anymore since I don't have any money. I'm using Google Voice on my Asus ROG Phone II using the limited ESA wifi available to me. It only works on my phone and still cuts out on some timer. I changed my Microsoft application to use that phone number, and I applied to Netflix, Epic Games."
03:54 DaemonFC; March 18, 2022: 10:42 a.m. "I'm waiting on next steps in a Microsoft interview. I'm pretty sure question 2 didn't have a valid solution, so I commented how I would do my own solution with the same time complexity but more memory complexity. I could have used a variable instead of an array to authenticate a sequence of numbers, so I could have used less space in my solution, but whatever. I didn't try my ass off in school and my personal life
03:54 DaemonFC; for twenty years to have a useless degree, dead family, and remain a destitute medical transplant like Chevy Cheese Chelios from Crank 2 and his big, strong "horse" tranquilized heart."
03:54 DaemonFC; "March 26, 2022: 3:16 a.m. - I'm going to wait for Microsoft to make some sort of decision on my application. If they refuse to work with me, then I'll send out another round of applications. If by early May I have received NOTHING in good faith for my future, me and these rich, fat fuckeries of a caste system will die ONCE and for all."
03:55 DaemonFC; "April 8, 2022: 10:44 a.m. - I'm supposed to hear back from Microsoft today for next rounds of interviews. I hope that works out since I have lots to contribute to them across their array of services like websites, video games, and operating system applications. After that, I'll send out another slew of applications. I'm back on LinkedIn until I finish getting a job. I'm going to delete it again after getting a job because I don't want to
03:55 DaemonFC; use social media even for keeping tabs on family and friends."
03:56 DaemonFC; "April 9, 2022: 8:39 a.m. - I didn't hear back from Microsoft. I suppose I won't be able to work for them given my limited internet resources to access telephones for interviews. I'll give them a call back just in case. Also, it prevents detachment of job application denials. They're always hiring anyway. I am overqualified to be a web developer with almost five years of experience running my own website after learning PHP working as a web
03:56 DaemonFC; developer for Georgia Tech CoC. I have various 2D and 3D video games produced using a cross platform game engine with the GDScript Python-like which I also learned myself. I've done that for four years now. I have a four year degree from a top ten university, two years of programming work experience counting my internships, and four other years of part time IT work."

I can't really type any specifics about it because of workplace confidentiality, but I've done four coding exams, four days with 6-8 hours of interviews, and seven different days of interviews in total. I was told I would have a decision relayed back in two weeks exactly fifteen days ago, and since over fifty percent of applicants are accepted, I still have high
03:57 DaemonFC; hopes given my background and prospects."

03:59 DaemonFC; 120k salary + 10k bonus + 2k relocation, airfare, and hotel + 70k stock bonus over 4 years + up to 24k personal annual bonus + up to 4k performance stock bonus over 5 years. That's $144,000 per year including my bonus. My first four years, I'll be getting $165k per year, but my MS stock would likely be worth much more than the 90k.
03:59 DaemonFC; That's $90,789 after taxes or $106,000 after taxes if I factor in my maximum bonus. If I assume a half bonus, then I'll be getting $99,000 per year off the bat. With living expenses of $40,000 per year, I can expect to manifest savings of about $60,000 per year. Every month, I would be getting $7,500 and spending maybe $3,500 on survival to take home about $4,000.
04:00 DaemonFC; A house down payment could be achieved within two years. I would spend $3000-$4500 depending on credit, $1500 for living expenses, and $1500-$3000 would go to savings. I need to rebuild my credit out of this hole I've dug."

04:04 DaemonFC; October 19, 2022: 9:59 a.m. - A while back, I casually mentioned during a Microsoft meeting that I might have trouble talking to foreigners and understanding their accent. It was a subject of discussion for like 30 seconds. The very next morning, some guy, Travis Lowdermilk, pressed me for a meeting like it was some kind of big concern. Another weird part was when this guy said, "Tell you what" over Teams.
04:04 DaemonFC; Now this morning I've got an email from the Workplace Investigations Team demanding I meet today over a "concern related to my alleged behavior in the workplace." I was worried this job would be some kind of BS to screw me over harder. I guess I'll see then. Perhaps it is a test of my character to see how I handle it. Perhaps they're looking for any excuse to lay people off.
04:04 DaemonFC; 6:19 p.m. - Wow, I was right. That dude Ben from that meeting said I said Microsoft shouldn't hire foreigners. I was also pressed about my website. I assume it was for its NSFW content, but that was never disclosed to me, and I didn't ask. I did explain it was NSFW, and I don't intend to associate with Microsoft.
04:04 DaemonFC; 6:52 p.m. - It is important I don't publish this. This could hinder my future efforts to procure my various drugs. I would have to publish this posthumously or something. Who cares about this other than some esoteric researcher?
04:04 DaemonFC; <Retrospective> 10/30/22: 8:15 a.m. - The guy who reported me was probably named Ben. I'll have to look up his last name.

05:18 DaemonFC; You have to be about 1,000 times worse than me to get a job at Microsoft Azure, apparently.
05:18 DaemonFC; So that's new.
05:18 DaemonFC; I didn't know things were that bad in there.
05:19 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], My take on this is either (1) he was just laid off and high on something and angry, or (2) they were about to lay him off for being high and weird and they just didn't do it in time.
05:19 DaemonFC; If they had laid him off already though, they would have said "former Microsoft employee".

05:20 DaemonFC; And it would have been one of those things where the guy came back to take revenge.
05:20 DaemonFC; He was getting a lot of negative feedback from the managers.
05:21 DaemonFC; But my guess is they huddled together at a meeting and said "Hey, when do you want to get rid of this guy?" and the others were like "Not yet. We're having layoffs anyway soon. Just let us deal with him and it can be random and we can pay him severance and maybe that'll calm him down.".
05:21 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], We've been having lots of "Dude got laid off and comes back with a gun." stories here in Illinois.
05:22 DaemonFC; I'm surprised that Cantrell didn't have access to guns.
05:22 DaemonFC; <schestowitz[TR]> don't use that word

05:22 DaemonFC; I'm offended that people think things like that are job qualifications.
05:23 DaemonFC; Like San Francisco, idiots like mjg59_ got together and had an election.
05:23 schestowitz[TR]; i read that as ereaction
05:23 DaemonFC; Then the whole damned city went to Hell and they have no recall process here so they just have to live with it until the next mayor can get things under control.
05:24 DaemonFC; Paul Vallas is basically a Republican.
05:24 DaemonFC; And he finished first.
05:24 DaemonFC; I don't have the numbers yet, but he could win the general election.
05:24 DaemonFC; If that happens, you know the Democrats committed a total pooch screw with Lightfoot.
05:24 DaemonFC; She fucked things up so bad the Democrats lost Chicago.

08:30 DaemonFC; I might adopt or something except we couldn't afford to do that either, schestowitz[TR]
08:30 DaemonFC; Plus many of the adoption agencies go right on discriminating against gay people, even married ones.
08:30 DaemonFC; Because Christians run them and opt out of laws.
08:30 DaemonFC; So there's actually two things stopping us.
08:31 DaemonFC; So the state sends the foster kids to someone who crushes cigarettes out on them instead.
08:31 DaemonFC; At least they're straight people!
08:31 schestowitz[TR]; DaemonFC: adoption does not solve the issue
08:32 schestowitz[TR]; pay attention to what the newsbot said :-
08:32 schestowitz[TR]; adoption is good for:
08:32 DaemonFC; No, it doesn't.
08:32 schestowitz[TR]; 1) people with health reasons
08:32 schestowitz[TR]; either him or her
08:32 schestowitz[TR]; 2) people who are less selfish and recognise orphans as people in need
08:32 DaemonFC; I'm saying that people who want a family should adopt.
08:32 DaemonFC; There's nothing wrong with that.
08:32 schestowitz[TR]; but that does not relieve financial responsibility at all
08:32 DaemonFC; Why would you have more kids when there's too many kids now?
08:33 schestowitz[TR]; you can adopot a pet
08:33 schestowitz[TR]; pets are far less expensive
08:33 schestowitz[TR]; we have 6 fish
08:33 DaemonFC; Financially, that's the other problem, which I literally just said.
08:33 DaemonFC; So there's two.
08:33 DaemonFC; Money and fundies.
08:33 schestowitz[TR]; see #boycottnovell
08:33 schestowitz[TR]; it was discussed moments ago
08:33 DaemonFC; I saw a Gallup poll that says 30% of US adults are now irreligious.

08:34 DaemonFC; So why does it feel like we're being governed by the Taliban?
08:34 schestowitz[TR]; more people => more spendings
08:34 schestowitz[TR]; more money going to the top
08:34 schestowitz[TR]; or debt
08:34 schestowitz[TR]; more debt
08:34 schestowitz[TR]; a person expected to live 80 years

08:35 schestowitz[TR]; "irreligious" is a work now?
08:35 schestowitz[TR]; in the UK the forms and all say "non-religious"
08:36 DaemonFC; Yeah, it is.
08:36 schestowitz[TR]; *word
08:36 DaemonFC; They don't ask what our religion is on a Census form.
08:36 DaemonFC; I don't know about yours.
08:36 schestowitz[TR]; you can abtain
08:36 schestowitz[TR]; or write your own
08:36 schestowitz[TR]; in the forms here gender is still binary
08:36 DaemonFC; Depending on which form you get there's usually as few as 6 or as many as ~50 questions on the Census.
08:36 schestowitz[TR]; so they could reframe the questionb
08:36 DaemonFC; But none are about religion.
08:37 schestowitz[TR]; "got dick?"

21:04 DaemonFC; Has Europe figured out a lot of things that the Americans haven't? Of course not.
21:04 DaemonFC; Having slightly different food regulations doesn't make food there automatically safer.
21:04 DaemonFC; There was a big huge scandal just a few years ago. It turns out that while their food laws are different than ours, they don't dust off their inspection badges and figure out what Europeans are actually eating.
21:04 DaemonFC; Most supermarkets were carrying frozen lasagnas with undeclared horsemeat, which had been treated with steroids.
21:06 DaemonFC; Ryan Alcaraz
21:06 DaemonFC; @DaemonFC
21:06 DaemonFC; Om nom nom, you say? Undeclared horse meat with steroids, huh?
21:06 DaemonFC; We're going to pump you up! -Hanz and Franz
21:06 DaemonFC; Anyway, food laws are like any other law. They're only a joke if your government is funding enforcement.
21:06 DaemonFC; Honestly, most governments don't fund enforcement very well, which is the actual problem here.
21:06 DaemonFC; "Food Babe" is a know nothing twit who should just bog off and let the scientists figure this stuff out.
21:06 DaemonFC; If you want to heckle your legislators about something, it should be the budget.
21:06 DaemonFC;

21:07 DaemonFC; fixed that
21:09 DaemonFC; Ryan Alcaraz
21:09 DaemonFC; @DaemonFC
21:09 DaemonFC; The US has a lot of food scandals mainly because of food fraud.
21:09 DaemonFC; Food fraud is basically where they charge you a lot of money and then sell you crap. It's organic, except it's not, is their biggest one.
21:09 DaemonFC; Part of this problem is that we get a lot of our food and spices from overseas or places like Mexico, and they actually don't give a fuck what they're selling us, and neither does our government, and then Walmart and Kroger slap ORGANIC on it and go hahaha now we can charge them 30% more!
21:15 DaemonFC; Ryan Alcaraz
21:15 DaemonFC; @DaemonFC
21:15 DaemonFC; If it comes from the United States, Canada or the EU, there's a better chance that when you pay for Organic food, you're actually getting it.
21:15 DaemonFC; But that's only about 60-70% of what they label as Organic in the store, so the rest, you don't know that's what you're getting.
21:15 DaemonFC; For example, the United States can't really grow coffee. We're not set up to do it. Our climate isn't right for it, anywhere in our territory, so it's imported, mainly from areas in the world with unstable governments.
21:15 DaemonFC; Ryan Alcaraz
21:15 DaemonFC; @DaemonFC
21:15 DaemonFC; The coffee problem goes way back.
21:15 DaemonFC; In fact, there was a coffee shortage in the 1970s and Communist countries like East Germany had the most severe problems with obtaining enough of the stuff.
21:15 DaemonFC; Their citizens were mad, but honestly, it's Communism, so they shoot the complainers and disappear them into forced labor camps, so they probably didn't complain too loudly.
21:15 DaemonFC; East Germany "solved it" by issuing cut up crap that plugged coffee machines, and giving weapons to unstable countries for coffee.
21:15 DaemonFC; MinceR, ^
21:19 DaemonFC; Ryan Alcaraz
21:19 DaemonFC; @DaemonFC
21:19 DaemonFC; So, it's easy to laugh at just how bad Communist Germans wanted their coffee, except that people in war torn countries ended up paying for this in blood while the damn Germans were going "Vat's happening with ze kaffemakermachine!?"
21:19 DaemonFC; (Yeah, that's not German, I know.)
21:19 DaemonFC; I don't have a problem with Germans really, I just like to laugh.
21:19 DaemonFC; Seriously, what the United States *SHOULD* do about the coffee problem is convert all of these unused skyscrapers to vertical farms and hothouse grow it.

21:23 DaemonFC; If you look at the problem from a large scale point of view, someone forgot to run DEFRAG on the office space in the major American cities, especially after COVID.
21:23 DaemonFC; In New York and Chicago it's an unmitigated disaster where over half the office space is empty, but not in any particular building, and they build more.
21:23 DaemonFC; They do nothing with it, including homeless shelters or greenhouses.
21:23 DaemonFC; Lightfoot is the dumbest Chicago Mayor ever and deserved to do worse last night, but at least she'll be gone.
21:29 DaemonFC; Ryan Alcaraz
21:29 DaemonFC; @DaemonFC
21:29 DaemonFC; Pritzker+Lightfoot have been such a problem for Chicagoans + Illinoisans and while Pritzker was re-elected (I don't vote for him), Lightfoot will be gone in a matter of weeks.
21:29 DaemonFC; I doubt Paul Vallas will ultimately win. When you redistribute the votes for all of the other unofficial Democrats, it's clear that Brandon Johnson will get a majority.
21:29 DaemonFC; The only city block in Chicago that was safe was Mayor Lightfoot's where the CPD put up K-Rails and guarded her, while the bullets fly everywhere else.
21:29 DaemonFC; Ryan Alcaraz
21:29 DaemonFC; @DaemonFC
21:29 DaemonFC; Mayor Lightfoot's policy on CPD worked hand-in-hand with Prosecutor Kim Foxx.
21:29 DaemonFC; They couldn't bring her many criminals, and the ones they did bring her all got vomited back out onto the city.
21:29 DaemonFC; If you know me, you know how much I distrust cops, but honestly what else can you do with Chicago?
21:29 DaemonFC; Just letting a 1/3 of police force resign in disgust isn't a solution.
21:29 DaemonFC; What needs to happen next is replace Kim Foxx with someone who doesn't drop felonies, including sex crimes against children by R. Kelly.
21:32 DaemonFC; Ryan Alcaraz

21:32 DaemonFC; Like her office didn't waste enough money going after the fake hate crimes that Jussie Smollett reported ($2 million), and then when it became clear he hired people to kick his ass to "help his career" they convicted him and the judge let him out when he said he was in jail for being Black.
21:32 DaemonFC; But R. Kelly? Why even tear open the wounds of his victims and waste tax money just to drop the case?
21:35 DaemonFC; Ryan Alcaraz
21:35 DaemonFC; @DaemonFC
21:35 DaemonFC; The government's handling of R. Kelly is even worse than Jeffery Epstein!
21:35 DaemonFC; Epstein got away with it for about another decade because of the No Prosecute Deal with Trump's future labor secretary.
21:35 DaemonFC; But Kelly? He's been at it his whole life. He's 57 now. The first major event we know of was diddling Aaliyah and committing fraud against the State of Illinois to marry her when she was 14, in 1998.
21:35 DaemonFC; The jury that saw him clearly in a tape let him go. He went after boys too.
21:35 DaemonFC; He's pushing 60.
21:37 DaemonFC; schestowitz[TR], The R. Kelly thing got as far as it did because rich, Black, and Illinois.
21:38 DaemonFC; They impaneled a jury in Chicago because of course they did, and Chicago is so depraved they have a city holiday for an S&M museum and put sex shops with their merchandise on display 15 feet over from a park.

21:46 DaemonFC; @DaemonFC
21:46 DaemonFC; Someone needs to give the news an enema.
21:46 DaemonFC; I'm tired of hearing about Adidas and what they're going to do with all of those Kanye West shoes.
21:46 DaemonFC; They knew what he was. Now they're trying to figure out where $1.3 billion worth (inflated retail) of sweatshop goods are going to be dumped.
21:46 DaemonFC; Poor people need to quit spending hundreds on a pair of shoes.
21:46 DaemonFC; True story: On Reddit the other day, someone took a picture of some expensive Nikes on sale at Rent-a-Center for $20 a week. $1,300+ total.
21:46 DaemonFC; Ryan Alcaraz
21:46 DaemonFC; @DaemonFC
21:46 DaemonFC; This is how Corporate America actually keeps poor Black people where they are. A big part of it.
21:46 DaemonFC; They build up one rich Black person and they do it by having millions of poor Black Americans buy $1,000+ shoes, even if they have to go to Rent-a-Center and do it in $20 weekly installments.
21:46 DaemonFC; And many don't see it for what it is.
21:46 DaemonFC; 50 Cent actually was shot up pretty bad when he was younger.
21:46 DaemonFC; Very rich now, and still won't pay the doctor that saved his life by pulling bullets out of him.
21:50 DaemonFC; Ryan Alcaraz
21:50 DaemonFC; @DaemonFC
21:50 DaemonFC; Poverty is largely a frame of mind.
21:50 DaemonFC; Not totally, but largely.
21:50 DaemonFC; It's like, when you have a $15 an hour job (minimum wage in Illinois), you start out in the penalty box, but you still keep doing dumb things like buying $1,300 Michael Jordan shoes.
21:50 DaemonFC; The only reason any of these people wear this crap is because sponsors.
21:50 DaemonFC; It's like deciding you're going to take your car to the shop that has their ad on a NASCAR driver.
21:50 DaemonFC; Just one big commercial brain fuck, man.
21:50 DaemonFC; Buy on quality and need.
21:53 DaemonFC; Ryan Alcaraz
21:53 DaemonFC; @DaemonFC
21:53 DaemonFC; Then I know where some people will go. "Well, they're not poor because they bought expensive shoes."
21:53 DaemonFC; What else are they buying while there's no money in the bank and they had to rent a pair of shoes?
21:53 DaemonFC; Then a medical bill comes in the mail and the landlord is banging on the door with a baseball bat and a cigar hanging out of his mouth wondering where the rent is, and taking them to court.
21:53 DaemonFC; It's a lot of things gathering together. You run yourself out of money and you can't pay your bills.
21:57 DaemonFC; Ryan Alcaraz
21:57 DaemonFC; @DaemonFC
21:57 DaemonFC; Adidas admits that even if it had to burn the $1.2 billion worth of Yeezy sneakers in an open goddamned pit and give up trying to do anything with them at all, it would only take a hit of $200 million dollars.
21:57 DaemonFC; That includes the cost of trucking them to a pit and setting them ablaze after paying sweatshops and the shipping company to get them into an American warehouse.
21:57 DaemonFC; So these stupid celebrity endorsement deals are a license to print money. 600%+ markup.

22:04 DaemonFC; Capitalism is good at overproducing and then disposing of the overproduction to create shortages.
22:04 DaemonFC; There's never been a successful Capitalist experiment, if by successful you mean true Capitalism, because people are greedy and eventually cause terrible recessions with all of the fraud and dirty tricks.
22:04 DaemonFC; Why aren't you spending!? We've been good to you! Perhaps the layoffs will compel you to spend!
22:04 DaemonFC; Communist states fall apart due to morons that take charge and "plan" the economy incorrectly.
22:04 DaemonFC; Ryan Alcaraz
22:04 DaemonFC; @DaemonFC
22:04 DaemonFC; Unfortunately when you get a Capitalist or Communist country that "mixes" aspects of both, they just take the worst aspects of both systems and toss them into a paint mixer, and then that goes about as well as it can.
22:04 DaemonFC; I was hopeful in 2008 when I saw Republic Window and Door go bankrupt, and their workers bought it out and were going to run the company as a cooperative.
22:04 DaemonFC; Then the government decided that they didn't qualify for any help, but General Motors did, and now GM is in trouble again.
22:05 DaemonFC; Ryan Alcaraz
22:05 DaemonFC; @DaemonFC
22:05 DaemonFC; The United States is a Lemon Socialist country with aspects of Authortarianism and Totalitarianism, which masquerades as a Capitalist Democracy.
22:08 DaemonFC; Ryan Alcaraz
22:08 DaemonFC; @DaemonFC
22:08 DaemonFC; The truth is that with all of this bullshit propaganda in the news about China, the US is pretty damned bad too.
22:08 DaemonFC; The censors and brainwashers are corporations, the spies are corporations in bed with the government, the criminal system is a rocket docket designed to get as many convictions as possible even if they have to frame people and exaggerate the seriousness of the crimes.
22:08 DaemonFC; On the civil side, they've made going to court too complex and expensive to be used by the poor against the rich.

22:10 DaemonFC; Theoretically, you can take your landlord to court to get the building fixed and to stop them from stealing your security deposit.
22:10 DaemonFC; In reality, you get to live in an apartment that makes you sick and lost $1,000 every time you move.
22:10 DaemonFC; That's just one example of how small claims court really works in the United States.
22:10 DaemonFC; But if you miss a payment or overflow the toilet, you'll be the defendant.
22:13 DaemonFC; Ryan Alcaraz
22:13 DaemonFC; @DaemonFC
22:13 DaemonFC; So there were some folks opining that ChatGPT could democratize the American court system.
22:13 DaemonFC; Whatever that means.
22:13 DaemonFC; Theoretically, they're democratized already.
22:13 DaemonFC; When I asked it to draw up a theoretical complaint against a landlord to be filed in my local court to get a security deposit back on behalf of John Doe, it refused and told me that it can't give you legal help.
22:13 DaemonFC; They want you to subscribe to Plus for $20 a month btw.

23:31 DaemonFC; I feel that one of the main causes of the US obesity problem is so-called anti-depressant drugs.
23:31 DaemonFC; Again, they do nothing except make you go limp and get fat.
23:31 DaemonFC; "I see you're depressed. Try these pill. They will make you get fat and go limp. Your depression will then clear up immediately." -The Psychiatrist
23:31 DaemonFC; "Trust me, I'm a doctor."
23:31 DaemonFC; After they fatten you up on anti-depressants, it makes you diabetic, and then they can kill you by not paying for your insulin.
23:31 DaemonFC; See how it works?
23:32 techuser; Suicide prevention (in severe cases of depression) done wrong?
23:53 DaemonFC; Very wrong.
23:54 DaemonFC; At least in the US.
23:54 DaemonFC; Everything here is one giant grift.
23:55 DaemonFC; If they say they want to help you with healthcare, it means they want money. With psych patients, you call 988 and the police come and beat you up or shoot you, and at best you end up in a looney bin and $50,000 in hospital debt later they let you out with enough medicine for a month.
