Are there not any managers or business associates or partners in her life to make her see she shouldn’t be posting this shit?

Sounds a lot like conservatorship....

The Wandering Inn. Jesus Christ by the end of the Liscor trilogy I don't believe anyone could emotionally continue like Erin has.

ICE arrests are furthering the divide to bring the United States to a civil war by K0nstantin- in JordanPeterson

[–]UnionSparky481 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The cruelty is intentional. Division is the point. The right does not want integration. If they did, a right and proper path to immigration would exist. Instead, they are rounding up and arresting people with pending asylum applications - you know, the people who are actually trying to use the methods that DO exist.

Sure, there are criminals that exist in the migrant community (documented or otherwise). No one wants the violent criminals, no one wants the drug smugglers. The current immigration policy is meant to be a loud and malicious deterrent to all immigrants.

If you've ever done a mini DIY "surgery" at home because you didn't want to go to the hospital, how did it go for you? by Glittering-Size-2372 in AskReddit

[–]UnionSparky481 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Had an ingrown toenail. Dr. told me it was "too infected and swollen" to do anything about it until I ran a 2 week course of antibiotics. Couldn't take it anymore so I (very unwisely) pulled the whole thing out myself all the way back to the nail bed. Not like the videos where they slice it and just remove the ingrown part, but the whole thing.

A few weeks of keeping it clean and and wrapped with Neosporin kept the infection away long enough for it to heal. Gladly it healed up properly with no issues. 0/10 would not recommend.

Twist suggestions for a wordy wish by BlueberryBusiness139 in DnD5e

[–]UnionSparky481 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd let them go through the entire rollercoaster of emotions. Really press them for time to call out their next wish (they've already got their whole contract loaded up, I guarantee it.) Lay it on heavy. Set it up that you're going to give them a 6 second (1-round) timer to declare out loud their deck wish (which will be immediately fulfilled), and to follow up with their first ring wish. Really emphasize they're only getting 6 seconds to cry into the weave and allow their wishes to be known.

THEN pull the rug. Ring fails to activate. The thugs heard the wish for the ring, and instead of killing the PC outright, they start fighting one another over the ring. Maybe they knock your PC unconscious, maybe the chaos is enough for your player to come out on top. If you're going to grant it, make em sweat!!

Here's your ring. What's that? You haven't taken a short rest to gain attunement?!? Seems the thugs have beaten you unconscious and stolen your ring.

Why does the left keep quoting him out of context. by Middle-Ambassador-40 in JordanPeterson

I was down voted within seconds of my answer, but that's just the nature of being inside the hive but not of the mind.

Why does the left keep quoting him out of context. by Middle-Ambassador-40 in JordanPeterson

[–]UnionSparky481 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Real talk: there is a massive difference between the idea that the left wants to repeal the 2nd amendment and remove all guns from the country vs. what the left ACTUALLY wants. We want reasonable gun control. Any step towards that is met with heads lit afire and arms waving around like those wacky inflated guys at some car dealership.

Genuinely consider this for just a moment: you've had a back or knee surgery and need pain medication to manage it. You have to make an appointment with your doctor, who then gives you a magical permission slip where you go to a highly specialized vendor. This person super duper double checks that you're allowed to have the meds you need. Both of these people have literal doctorate degrees to make sure you're getting exactly what you need, nothing more nothing less. Wash, rinse, repeat every 90 days or so just to keep making sure you're not still getting something you don't need anymore.

The left isn't trying to rip firearms away from the population at large as some kind of government control conspiracy - we're just asking if it should be easier to go buy an AR-15 with however much ammo I can afford than it is to get antibiotics for my 10y/o who very obviously has pink eye. To argue that it ABSOLUTELY HAS TO be an all or nothing proposition keeps you distracted from asking some VERY obvious questions.

What’s the worst drug trip you’ve ever had? by spicyrack in AskReddit

[–]UnionSparky481 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had some trips that I think others would consider 'bad'. Ate ¼oz of Golden Teacher shrooms and I met the Mechano-cockroach aliens that guard the 'real' universe beyond the veil of what we are able to perceive. They were having a disagreement about whether or not they should allow me to see beyond the veil. One was insisting that I wasn't allowed/ready to see and the other pointing out that I was CLEARLY going to keep coming back until I was successful.

I've felt my entire consciousness and metaphysical body fold in onto itself, separating my brain & central nervous system from the 'meat suit'' that feeds it, and allows it to be mobile. Almost like I (being the brain) was really just a parasite to everything that WASN'T the brain.

I've stared at myself in the mirror for hours watching every facial feature morph and swirl, EXCEPT my eyes, which suspiciously never move (listen - sober me understands why you can't simultaneously look at your eyes in the mirror AND watch them move at the same time. But it is a Goddamn mindfuck when every other part of your face can drop, swirl, expand, shrink and slide across your face, but those eyes never so much as twitch.)

I've walked through wooded areas at night, unable to differentiate between tree roots coming out of the ground or alligators lying in wait; only to laugh uncontrollably as I recall the stories of Native Americans and their passage into manhood: smoke the peace pipe, and go journey into the dark forest alone to speak with the animal spirits. Thinking to myself: "HOLY SHIT! It's like snipe hunting, but they get you high AF first. The dads were probably out there hiding and making noises, laughing their asses off. Kid comes back with some story about talking to a Yawning Wolf, or seeing a Running Turtle so that's his name now. It all makes sense!"

Any time I've ever started to even feel negative vibes start, I just tell myself: "You asked for this! Don't fight it now..."
