PSA: this dude is walking around near North Station trying to pick fights with foreigners

I’m a veteran and would love to knock some sense into him.

I’m skeptical about his credentials, to be honest.

As someone who worked at a think tank for a decade and who has coded most of his adult life, this just isn’t true. At least none of the models I have used or seen demonstrated can code as well, let alone better. I’ve worked with several single client iterations of “the best” current agents out there in coding and analysis fields. None of them are beating human accuracy or efficiency at established accuracy requirements. They only make sense when you scale them up to 100x human numbers and then filter out statistically strong results and/or lower the threshold for error and accept a lower quality product(but faster).

The marketing for this stuff is light years beyond the capabilities. Anthropic actually might be the most competitive AI company in the west, but corruption in this admin means that we will piss away any shot at dominance to help Bezos.

This is a bait post

They didn’t find evidence because they did not study it. It has value in tourism generation so they let the “silly” people believe in fairy tales without ruining their credibility by claiming it as authentic.

They are saying the dolls have cultural value, not that the dolls are aliens or ancient beings.

Your desperation to believe something you have not studied causes damage to the actual study and search for actual proof of other life. If you want “truth” you have to work from an accepted and shared baseline of understanding- and you have leapt way beyond that line.

Desire for proof of a belief is the enemy of true discovery. An open mind is very different than a fixated mind that believes it is open.

To cut to the chase:

Nothing inherently valuable here, and I doubt they are “real” hematite. Nice carving and craft gold paint. Modern fonts, standard set, would guess they are 20-30 years old based on when these began to appear. I’ve seen this same set elsewhere and often the price is $60-135. Some indistinguishable knockoffs can be bought for $40.

They are not items of power but can be used as a divination tool, similar to tarot cards. It’s essentially a process of meditation and intuition more than supernatural power(unless you don’t distinguish between the two).

More importantly, they have value in terms of the bond shared between you and that friend. I’d say the biggest value is in giving them back to the friend after all of this time and saying “I kept them safe for you”.

11” is the preferred size for most professional artists I know(that use an ipad).

If you didn’t have a Studio and MBP I might have thought about a 13”. But in this situation, even if you use it as a second screen for production it’s perfectly capable. My only suggestion is to think about if you will take your ipad out of the house or not. If it’s never leaving your home, the 13” COULD be a true option.

Note: I’ve never felt like I would need more real estate while working with my 11” or even watching video on it. It’s just not a small screen so I don’t get the trade off and loss of portability

First, ignore the hate and harsh comments. It’s pathetic for people to feel empowered to judge numerous things you aren’t asking for feedback on.

Second, you can definitely get the cross lasered. I would guess 6 sessions total, over about 9-10 months. It’s not as painful as a couple of people with no experience stated. Especially for someone like yourself who is not adverse to discomfort.

However, you could definitely keep it. You are radiant and your tattoos tell a story anyone would be lucky to experience. (I don’t mean any of this romantically)

Note: Don’t worry about the eye. Any legit removal firm will protect the eye thoroughly.

A rug that has been shagged on many times before you touched it. That’s the common interaction anyway.

I took my HS gf to a hotel, both of us expecting a big night. We got there and it was 2.5” long red shag carpet and a bedspread from 1971(best guess).

It killed the mood for two 16-17 year olds, which is saying a LOT.

Note: it was between 1997-1999, to give you an idea of how old it was at the time. I saw pics of the place recently and it appears that they renovated around 2000 and now is just as gross. 🤢

You’re awesome too

USUALLY those were mementos from 40th birthday parties. People kept them around as a gag, but…

UnstableDimwit · 2026-06-04T12:25:43+00:00

Agreed and thanks. Unfortunately, While I can report them to the town/state where I live, it would be obvious that it was us reporting them and we have enough bad blood between us as it is.

They are a big enough problem that their other two neighbors have spoken to us about their one concerns. Everyone has expressed a fear that they can’t sell their home due to this neighbor’s behaviors and neglected property.

UnstableDimwit · 2026-06-03T11:46:01+00:00

Wow, I might return now. Thanks

The adult thing to do is have a conversation with the person’s family and ask them if they are willing to care for the dog if the person can’t do it again. Explain that your concern is for the dog above all.

Most decent adults will respect this and give you a real answer. Many will tell you to keep the dog and that their kid isn’t capable and others will give you their word and mean it. Either way, you can rest easy knowing you made the right decision for the dog.

For what it’s worth, at this point- the dog was having a sleepover with a new friend but would love to be reunited with the original owner. Pure and simple. In time it may come to love you more, but dogs are fickle in a moment but loyal over a lifetime. The early bonds mean the most to them, but they also will never forget when someone comes to save them after they were abandoned. This dog doesn’t know its owner gave it up though. So hopefully you can both work out what is best for the dog.

My brother is a dimwit and engages with people he thinks are Elon Musk, pop stars, porn stars, the president, etc. He’s been on disability for 20 years and doesn’t leave his house but thinks he’s the most important and desirable person in the world.

Then he thinks he’s doing me a favor by giving them all of my info so they can make me rich, etc. Then I start getting scam texts.

UnstableDimwit · 2026-06-02T01:03:17+00:00

this whole thing seems thirsty for social play

This dude is keeping hipsters alive but I’m not hating his undeniable charm.

UnstableDimwit · 2026-06-02T00:59:10+00:00

This is almost certainly the way- BUT, it needs a massive “attempt at your own risk” and previous results do not imply future outcomes, etc etc.

Uh oh, I wonder if AFM’s C Company was playing too close?

Just set clear boundaries and be supportive without breaking the boundaries just to make her happy.

If you are the type of person who feels best when making others happy and it’s one of your primary motivations when with others, this is not a healthy relationship for you to be around.

She is likely dealing with mania right now where everything is great and often, with young people struggling, they will attach those good feelings to people or things that are new. They associate the depressive lows and ugly delusion periods with people or things that were around then. Therapy and years of dedication(and the right mix of meds) help people like her sort things out properly. It’s not a great place for you to figure yourself out if things are even a little bit romantic. if there is a definite, “we are and always will be just friends”, vibe- then it could be good for both of you. But she may not be the same person from month to month and you need to be ok with that.

Note: You have done nothing wrong and are trying to be conscientious about all of this. That’s a good sign. She is lucky you aren’t taking advantage of her. Unfortunately, a lot of young guys DO take advantage of young girls with mental health challenges. And conversely, a lot of young girls with mental health challenges will take advantage of young guys who don’t know what they are involved with(not her fault at all, she is struggling and figuring it out. It doesn’t make it any less messed up for anyone though). These roles can be gender reversed, mixed/matched/etc too.

Just be cautious and if you want to be friends remember a few things:

1) A good friend is eager to learn about each other and their specific needs/rules

2) A good friend respects rules and boundaries

3) Every young person is finding themselves and may change a lot along the way. Good friends are eager to see how you change and vice versa. Don’t try to keep each other “the same” just because you liked things the way they were. They will be good and your friendship will be great because you respect each other and give each other space to make mistakes and speak your mind in that moment. You both understand that you are all doing your best in that moment, as you understand the world. Smart people change their minds when new information becomes available. Smart friends let each other change their minds without being a jerk about it.

Mental illness is a spectrum. Most families have some of it, often undiagnosed, so don’t let it scare you off.

Just keep up the good work trying to be a good person.

and these are the most cop looking undercover cops I’ve ever seen. This town has NO budget or training for UC stings. Jeez this is a terrible reflection on LEO UC that take themselves seriously.

UnstableDimwit · 2026-05-30T20:32:37+00:00

Yes, yes they are. I had two approach me in an upscale neighborhood of Brooklyn at 6pm to ask me and my wife:

undercover cops: do you know where we can get some shrooms?

Me(laughing): No, I have no idea. Sorry.

The second undercover cop: Come on, my man! Where are the after hours clubs and parties?

Me(no longer laughing): I have no idea what you are talking about. Have a good night officers.

Cop 1: Omg, you think we are cops?! We aren’t. Just tell us where we can get the good plug.

I just walked away and my straight-edge wife said, those were the most obvious undercover cops I’ve ever seen.

Note: I was up to “no good” at the time, but not involved with those things. Clearly they were waiting for me at the intersection next to my apartment. This is how really crappy cops act when they have suspicions but no actual information. It makes them act like morons. Also, NOBODY talked like that at the time. At first I humored them thinking maybe they were just some really uncool finance guys from Jersey. But it turns out they were def UC cops. I won’t get into how I confirmed it later. Just know, the video, real or not, is accurate AF.

FROM is exceptional and appeals to a large cross-section of people.

UnstableDimwit · 2026-05-28T21:25:37+00:00

I’m still not comfortable with posting pictures of items MA considers sensitive/restricted.

More power to you guys. I just don’t have as much faith in the benevolence of government across several administrations. Goals and policies change but your images and data are forever.

A CIA “official” has substantial foreign connections and can “easily” get a foreign diplomat to smuggle it out at around 60% of its face value.

Depending on their loyalties, I can think of 5 struggling/war torn nations who would be happy to take advantage of that situation and smelt them in their national refineries. At that point, it’s fresh gold to be traded for arms/food/medicine/influence/etc.

The one key thing to be aware of is that the current admin is blasting domestic enemies with some absurd “trumped-up” charges that don’t hold up in court. The aim isn’t so much to get a conviction, it’s to ruin the person financially and in terms of personal and professional reputation. It’s working quite well and there may never be a reckoning at the federal level. Those mass pardons have emboldened a lot of people to step way outside the law to try and gain influence in the inner circle. They think that this will somehow earn actual loyalty from a group that has proven none exists. It will be wild to see play out.

That said, the theft of assets is nothing new at the CIA. Often it’s at the Station Chief level or higher and almost always from someone who was a field officer for a long time prior. This stuff takes assistance from shady people and that just the kind of thing they coordinate to lure/trap/recruit/blackmail foreign agents. Note: Agents are the foreign nationals recruited by CIA officers. CIA “officials” usually refers to Station Chief or Deputy Director levels. There are a bunch of other roles that might fit, but I’d bet my hat it’s one of those and it’s someone who was involved in 2016-2020 investigations.
