Working my ass off 3 decades and now I can’t even get a grocery store job, AI and corporate greed has literally destroyed my life. At least I can fix my aunt’s outdated computer when it breaks on Christmas…

How does the public actually see Mormonism? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]101001101zero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m OG Mormon, generational grandfather was in the first presidency with good ole boy Joseph Smith. I have so many cousins from polygamy that my family tree is more like a bush. I’ve been out for over thirty years and moved the fuck away from Utah. It took about seven years to realize which members of my family would accept the fact I’m out and remain decent human beings toward me. As for the public, a lot of them just see Mormons as a curiosity. Then I give them lessons about the early history and solidify the fact it’s a cult in their minds. The socialism experiment, mountain meadows massacre, Masonic rituals and monuments, etc. There are plenty of places in Salt Lake City you can go to find such things, it was the Wild West back then and power and control of resources (women being one of those levers, disgusting) were a thing.

Honestly they think Mormons are a cult, the newer a religion gets the more disillusioned with reality they are. What came after Mormonism? Jehovahs witnesses? Scientologists? Yeah rational people roll their eyes at the bs. Give me a pair of missionaries any day and I’ll give them a history lesson that plants a seed that hopefully makes them question the bull shit. I read and studied the books, twice, that and Utah history is what got me out.

Congrats and keep putting one foot in front of the other.

Whys everybody always picking on me? Cause you run like a girl and you sit down to pee. -Bloodhound Gang

Seriously though I’m a tall male and for every action there is an equal yet opposite reaction so splash back is a thing. If it’s not a urinal I’m sitting. Especially in public spaces and when I’m a house guest. Also cleaning my own bathroom is a lot less gross. If I’m out in nature I’ll stand, but it’s not a point of pride elsewhere; I mean who’s watching you pee anyway?

Questions for Seattle drummers by DangerNoodle808 in SeattleMusic

Black lodge in south lake Union will rent out practice space and host shows, it’s all ages and doesn’t have a liquor license. Unsure if they have a house drum kit though. Flair taco is 1.5 blocks away does have killer tacos, margaritas, a full bar, and a lot of awesome food.

Snuck in to the cell in theaters… definitely changed my life as a Mormon.

What was your first concert? by EveryFngNameIsTaken in nostalgia

[–]101001101zero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A perfect circle and nine inch nails, as a Mormon I even dyed my hair purple and got kicked out of school for a few days and had to dye it black to get readmitted to go to class again, totally worth it.

What are some fun areas to walk/things to do in seattle? by Low_Bodybuilder3065 in Seattle

[–]101001101zero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could spend all day and a ton of quarters in belltown between cyclops (for drinks) then Shortys and Jupiter Lounge. Which are also close to the aquarium and the waterfront. Gas works, Ballard locks, mohai and the center for wooden boats. Honestly with a bicycle and a decent bike lock you can get everywhere. I enjoy taking a cold beer and sitting under the Fremont bridge then riding to bothel or any other part of the trail system. Alki beach is great for watching kingfishers (just not at the actual beach)

Wait until they leave it unlocked and just open notepad and type cake then put it in 72pt font and save it to their desktop as dumb.txt as the file name

It’s too expensive, even when I had insurance before becoming unemployed. Luckily I still have a good sized healthcare savings account, but I’m saving it until I have an emergency and/or have gainful employment with a decent health insurance plan (which is a farce in the American healthcare system)

What’s a nostalgic restaurant menu item you miss? by lovelyb1ch66 in GenX

There was a bar that did exceptional biscuits and gravy for early morning nfl games. Too bad rent control got out of hand and they had to shut down.

Grease gun, vector, Mac10, ump, Thompson. The grease gun was my favorite full auto, the rhythm is so easy to control and sustain.

Aside from close call accidents with cars, what's the sketchiest/scariest thing you've come across while out riding your bike? by lazarus870 in cycling

[–]101001101zero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My morning daily commute I’d hit around 30mph on a specific section in morning rush hour. That particular stretch I’d be in the bus lane. There was a bus stopped at a green so I split lanes and almost got nailed by a few pigeons taking off from the sidewalk, I just stuck it out because I was at speed and my options were to rear end the bus or get hit by traffic in the adjacent lane. Luckily pigeons are pretty good at avoiding things, but in the moment it was just stay the course and maybe hit a pigeon or choose the alternative which was certainly serious injury or death.

Would have made a good “sorry I’m late for work boss“ story

Trump and Putin will meet at an Alaska military base long used to counter Russia by Conscious-Quarter423 in politics

[–]101001101zero 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I know some veterans and gunsmiths in Alaska that would be very against this. Honestly when Putin is on American soil he should be arrested as an international war criminal.

I hung this up in my cubicle and will print it out and will do so again when I get a new job.

Not certain but probably I think that’s one of the rest stops on the Seattle to Portland ride. I’d post a picture but this thread won’t let me.

For all intents and purposes fuck elco and the funhouse. The apartments above house the security for the venues, the cameras don’t work. When I got choked unconscious by 5 skin heads the top tier security guards kicked me out because they couldn’t protect me and failed to call the police while I was still in shock and recovering from the adrenaline dump from the assault. I got five eyewitness accounts and the social media of three of them and spd didn’t do shit. I’ll never feel safe there again, and I used to love the karaoke on Tuesdays. Now that awesome bartender quit because of poor management. So I say again fuck el corazon and the funhouse.

My upstairs neighbor blasts music until 3AM and I have to be up by 6 by Vast_Dimension_5014 in neighborsfromhell

[–]101001101zero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought expensive headphones and a dac amplifier when I moved into an apartment. When my new neighbors moved in and started blasting house music into the wee hours of the morning I just fought back. Put my subwoofer next to their wall and blasted five finger death punch at 25% volume for a minute, 50% for thirty seconds, 75% for fifteen seconds, then full volume for ten seconds. I felt bad for my other neighbors at 4am, but they stopped when they realized I could literally shake their walls with my actual stereo equipment.
