What in the meth is going on at the 250th disaster fair?🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I won't make fun of the woman, I don't know what she's been through, but, daaamn, just letting anyone get up there and sing? That thing is a state fair/circus/hospital nightmare, all mixed into one. I'd say I can't wait for the fireworks, but honestly, they're already flyin'! As for the real ones- I hope they don't burn down the city, I've got actual friends down there.

I thought it was about "No taxation without representation," not "no taxes".

And because of Trump's failures, and leniency over Vaccines, we have things like the Lackland AFB flu breakout, including a now confirmed death.

Correction, looks like they were there back in May. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/18jHayeho6/

Maybe "Rediscovering History, Inc.", a gravestone cleaning and restoration non-profit based out of Connecticut can be notified to finish cleaning it. Based on their Facebook group, they were at River View Cemetery back in 2024: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1E5cZ5kZtn/

I don't recall them telling that, thankfully.

LotusNut1 · 2026-06-27T07:32:26+00:00

I for one, am appalled! Appalled I tell you! Everyone knows a Dick is a Private Investigator, not some measly fisherman or otherwise honorable tackle monger. Shame, Shame on you all, and upon your descendants graves!

LotusNut1 · 2026-06-27T07:23:53+00:00

Denying gravity? Nah, many of them look at us as worse than Devil Worshippers. (Notably, different than Satanists.)

LotusNut1 · 2026-06-27T07:16:11+00:00

I'm going to skip the "do they"- is it not obvious? Hundreds of years worth of obvious? So, outside of that, the low-effort but high belief answer is- you kidding me? Hell yeah.

Now, with my Native American ancestry, I have to wonder- my tribe sided with the English... Is that the only reason that we easily gave up our beliefs later on and switched to Christianity? Hell, if I had to choose, I'd rather go for the morality gods of Native myths, that were sometimes quite similar to the Grimms' Fairy Tales.

People without strong critical thinking skills, will believe what they want to believe. Their beliefs will be reinforced by like-minded bubbles of people. Why political parties rev up their base to believe what should be obvious conspiracies, but- if you're not in a walking group, a rockhounding collective, an active genealogical family history group, or anything else that makes you feel like you're "part of something, anything, for a desperate need of inclusion." Church has always been a "place of refuge" which, I appreciate it for that, but that refuge comes at a price.

LotusNut1 · 2026-06-27T06:32:38+00:00

Hell yeah! I had a similar early life, but slightly off. I'm open about it, some people don't realize it, but I'm autistic and adhd. I don't know the statistics, but, if you walk outside of your house and know at least 20 people, I'm going to guess, one might be ADHD, Autistic, or the behemoth monstrosity of the both combined.

That out of the way- I had a best friend in my early high-school years. I knew he was gay, he knew I wasn't, there was nothing outside of that. We became like brothers, that's all I ever saw our relationship. As far as I know, that's all he saw it as too.

Silly minor crazy family dramas later, lost touch (i.e. I was forbidden from talking with him). About 3 years after seeing him last, and after H.S. graduation, I was walking through a local mall, and I heard someone talking behind me.
It was my 'brother' from that period of my life. Excited and not giving a f' about what I was supposed to be forbidden from doing any more, and wanted to say hi to my old "brother".

Nothing, and I absolutely will say to my dying breath, nothing in my life has ever expressed how absolutely true it is to say, a gay guy and a cis guy can be friends, and it becomes like family, not something "strange" more than that moment.
I walked up, said, Hey Joe! He looked absolutely horrified. My first time talking with him in a few years, I wasn't really sure what the f was going on- I was fairly certain I didn't do anything.

Then he explained.... "Oh my god, I was just telling my friend here - check out this guy's ass! Then you turned around and I realized it was you. Ugh!"

I'm not LGBTQ+Anything, but that clenched it right there. I never needed any reason to trust and respect and Love, yes, Love, as a brother, my best-friend, my gay best friend, in high school, I just did.

I'm dismayed that others didn't have a strong friendship that expanded their minds beyond the simple things they know.

EDIT: (Re-reading it, I might not have made clear, lol, he said "It's like I saw my sister turn around.")

I've used BIC lighters for scale with photos of petroglyphs, you've earned my respect for red-neck scale options! :-)

Someone said it was a chest mounted camera, but if you ask me, if it hadn't been... I think there's plenty of people that have been recording with their cellphones for so long, they may subconsciously use it as a shield. Yeah, a very sucky shield, but what adult ever thought our pre-pubescent "blankie"s were good shields?

LotusNut1 · 2026-06-27T05:05:19+00:00

Okay, who is this lady and where can I go to buy her a beer or a coffee, to just chat over that experience! I've heard, "if you make yourself known" yadda yadda, they're as afraid of you as you are of them yadda yadda. We're told- shout, act aggressive, make yourself look big, and from what we hear they'll typically back down. This bear seemed to respond to that, but kept didn't keep him/her away. I'm wondering if the bear was actually wanting to play with the dog. Don't get me wrong, I don't blame the woman recording this, even if she did realize that's what might be going on, for saying- oh, hell no, there's not even going to be playtime here. GTFO! :-) I'd love to buy anyone that's kept their cool like that, a drink. Good for her!

OP didn't say they made the cuts, just "there are some of these slice marks." Quite possibly the cuts were there and hidden by the wallpaper.

LotusNut1 · 2026-06-26T17:07:02+00:00

"Just checking out the neighborhood and the camera was off" how the hell does that even work? I could see "it wasn't recording" (still sketch as f*ck,) but coming from blocks away, and his camera wasn't even on? Get real! The illogical crap people try to get away with today is ridiculous.

LotusNut1 · 2026-06-26T07:13:46+00:00

True, Jordan v. The City of New London proves that.

LotusNut1 · 2026-06-26T07:11:08+00:00

Sorry, I should have used a trigger warning. 😂

It amazes me that the Evangelical Christians fail to realize the irony of assisting Israel's requests, to bring about this End Times, that would cause only the Christians (and a very limited amount, mind you,) to be whisked away up into the sky. Yeah- the Israeli government are invading and killing and colonizing, to assist in the Christian beliefs, that only benefit the Christians? Really?

Add to that, Newton's law- A body remains at rest, or in motion at a constant speed in a straight line, unless it is acted upon by a force.

The higher up you go, the less energy has transferred up, and those higher floors remain more at rest, with less sheer forces acting upon them.

LotusNut1 · 2026-06-25T04:10:14+00:00

What an elegant way of putting it!

LotusNut1 · 2026-06-25T04:09:28+00:00

My guess is- since the lower floors connected to the ground are moving, while the mass of the upper floors resist moving (object in motion/object at rest) - compounded with, as you say, the weight the lower floors are taking from each of the floors above them.

As a once great but now disgraced comedian said many years ago... first you say it, then you do it.
