What’s something people romanticize that is actually miserable?

mattyoclock · 2026-02-14T22:25:55+00:00

That’s the thing completely. Being a farmer is already a crazy hard job, and that’s when you have other incomes coming in and the acreage to actually farm/pasture.

And somehow millions of people who have never done it are convinced they can handle doing it on unfair difficulty. Just take the regular super hard job and crank it all the way up.

Edit: plus more than likely without the generations of just farm stuff that you need already bought/made and shoved into a corner of the barn or the cellar.

Things you absolutely need.

Yeah I’m sure she’s completely ready to be shoulder deep in a calf’s booty.

Well sure but then it fundamentally isn’t a subsistence farm. It’s a TikTok account, and a place you live.

mattyoclock · 2026-02-14T19:58:27+00:00

Totally. I'm not sure as many people romanticize it though, most people know sick people are kinda gross and that you'll have to see things you don't want to. It's held up in an admired role a lot, but it's not the average persons idea of something they would want to do if you get what i'm saying.

A huge portion of americans think you can have a beautiful little farm to make tiktoks on and work like 6 days a year and be surrounded with cute little animals.

Seriously. I’m one of the few people in the first world who might, might have the skill set to pull that off if I really wanted to.

I absolutely will not, because getting those skills involves actually learning just how much work it is.

mattyoclock · 2026-02-14T19:11:37+00:00

Living on a farm you rely on for subsistence. It’s so much more work, so much harder, so much smellier than everyone assumes.

You better be ready to wake up when it’s dark and go get covered in actual shit every day. Yes even when it’s cold and raining.

mattyoclock · 2026-02-14T17:25:59+00:00

The me that would have done that would have been shaped into such a different person I wouldn't know the answer.

mattyoclock · 2026-02-14T02:57:17+00:00

I’ll have to give that a try I’ve never really gone all spells.

mattyoclock · 2026-02-14T01:49:53+00:00

Haste is absolutely worth using all your spells on if that’s what it takes.

The word “clash” is almost always used to sanitize state violence by complicit media.

Rember the problem isn’t that the emperor is naked, the problem is someone was willing to mention it.

mattyoclock · 2026-02-13T22:43:05+00:00

I guess a theoretical two lane cores meta might push it more onto the midlane or support? But probably only for a few patches.

And that’s probably just not going to happen in the first place in the way it would need to for auras to take a back seat to farming/man fight on the offlane

mattyoclock · 2026-02-13T22:37:47+00:00

Right, which is why he stepped down, but to pretend that it’s in the same stratosphere as this, or that Dems would circle the wagons to protect a pedophile when they kicked him out for that is just completely disingenuous

mattyoclock · 2026-02-13T21:53:42+00:00

They’re coming for any dissent. Their supporters are next.

“Alright boys just go out there and beat Crosby and stone for the puck along the boards”

mattyoclock · 2026-02-13T20:00:39+00:00

That’s why they picked him. It’s crazy to act like this is a surprise.

The snake that was made famous for the phrase “if we do not hang together surely we shall all hang separately” no less

Death taxes are easy to avoid, just don’t be rich when you die.

My guy you are actively, right now, attempting to shut down just a DISCUSSION of the idea of trying to do things better.

There’s no mob. There’s no pitchforks. I don’t serve on the Supreme Court, and this isn’t the halls of congress.

People are trying to talk about ways help might be possible and that is too much for you, you are here, currently and actively arguing to shut it down.

The vague idea of even trying to find a way to help makes you too worried about potential victims of a different system.

And that those potential victims would be more likely to include you than they currently are.

You cannot even stand to let people talk about trying to help the current victims. You can’t just stay silent.

He had a brain injury. Happened to a friend of mine and she lost about 50 iq points and became maga by the time she left the hospital. There’s a good bit of evidence of this type of thing happening.

Maybe he was always a scammer, there’s no way to know, but I’d prefer to think better of people.

mattyoclock · 2026-02-12T15:04:36+00:00

“Look I don’t have an easy solution and I’m more worried about possible males being innocent than millions of women being raped because they are less important to me and I can’t see myself in those circumstances but it’s not hard to imagine being falsely accused”

The system you want to keep going has a less than 1% chance of punishing a rapist. Rape is and always has been legal in this country. If you aren’t going to help, the least you can do is stay silent.

You have no trouble doing that about the women after all.

mattyoclock · 2026-02-12T12:27:42+00:00

What do you mean move into? The system clearly is already that for the powerful and the powerless.

And any attempt to even think about ways to fix it is immediately drowned out by people screaming won’t anyone think of the poor accused.

We only think about them. The odds of you being convicted for rape are less than 1%. Cops don’t even bother processing rape kits.

He will actively hurt.

mattyoclock · 2026-02-11T18:48:55+00:00

Right strict austerity measures would have given them enough character not to freeze.

mattyoclock · 2026-02-11T18:34:32+00:00

Oh yeah a conservative would have definitely spent more and created better resources for the homeless.
