The "What Are You Doing This Moment" Thread

[rms]

I don't know of any examples of non-whites being charged or even threatened with hate speech or hate crime charges.

really bad opinion here man

How is saying I don't know something an opinion you retard?

Cheers for the stats though.

But of course if a gang of blacks target a white person, rob them and that white person dies as a consequence, that's not a racially motivated hate crime, because only whites can be racist.

Jeez, what a convenient set-up.



Did you just assume @Iron Wizard's race/sex/gender?

In fact, I straddle the line between male and female, as a gender fluid person.

All it would take was a 14 second Google search yet...

It still wasn't an opinion, also I'm on a mobile phone right now so quick Google searches looking for large links are just a pain in the ass.

Here's your opinion in case you forgot

 

[CiG]

Yes. Thanks for that.

I said that and then also said I don't know of any examples, you corrected me with statistics. Not sure what your point is anymore?

I said I don't know of any examples so why would that opinion be any different than that?

 

[rms]

An opinion that stupid that isn't challenged inherently by your own skepticism is a problem. Not much else to say here but glad you had me drag it out for ya

 

[CiG]

I'll live.

Edit: Honestly, I don't know what it is, but I've been very politically lazy lately, so I do actually genuinely appreciate you correcting me. I think I'm just burned out and also mentally invested in a few non-political things to such a degree that I'm just spewing memes at this point anytime politics comes up.

 

[rms]

told you to stop participating in that youtube shit

 

[CiG]

That's not what it is, I haven't been following any of that stuff for awhile.

I've just dived headfirst into Warhammer all over again as well as taking more of an interest in philosophy and so what's left of my mental energy is just herpy derpy meme shit.

If I did still follow politics on Youtube I might actually be somewhat coherent.

Went to Walmart today to buy a few things for my MDF trip, and I decided to get one of those USB power-banks for my phone. The one I decided to get has one of those locks on the end of the hanger that say to find an associate. The one associate they had working in the area was preoccupied with a line of people, and my time is valuable, so I said fuck it and just ripped it off the hanger. Afterwards I had security attempting to covertly follow me throughout the store, but because they are bumbling idiots, they used the intercom twice to attempt to tell security of my location, and at the register I actually heard the security guard conversing on his portable with "base" to confirm my location. No confrontation or anything even after I left the store, I was disappointed.

Half heartedly trying to find tattoo artist in the UK that does sci fi/slightly surreal sorta shit.

First time I've ever really browsed instagram or pinterest.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

The UK has some fucking amazing tattoo artists so I'm sure you'll find someone easy enough.

 

[CF87]

Not much, was thinking back to when I was a kid making lego sets,etc.. having fun, nothing is the same.

You're underestimating how lazy I am when it comes to searching for things like this. Somehow even worse than when I'm searching for musicians.


Bout to head to the airport and begin crusade to Berlin.

I went to the first day of Phoenix Comicon. Met Timothy Zahn, Kevin J. Anderson, Michael Stackpole and Dan Parsons (who was part of the art team on the Star Wars: Legacy comics). All pretty awesome people. Bought some comics and a Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex wall scroll. That won't be the end of my purchases though. It never is.

 

[zabu of nΩd]

Not at MDF tonight. Probably gonna skip it, and leave my streak at 9 years.

 

[The Butt]

I know you are joking, but those who make that notion are "racist". That's why I hate that term. It is paradoxical, it deprives itself of its own meaning. This is because the definition is too broad. If "racism" refers to the conceptual or actual discrimination of people based on race, then merely acknowledging race as the biological reality that it is makes one a racist. 90% of the population has at least a halfway decent view on this, and by the SJW "racism is bad" logic, then 90% of the population is comprised of bigoted assholes.

I wasn't joking.

 

[CiG]

You probably should have been, that was cringe.

@Talos of Atmora take a photo of that wall scroll?
