  • Mom was 18, Dad 20 when they had my brother.
    Mom was 20,Dad was 22 when they had me.

    Mom was a narcissist, dad a weakling so no standing up for himself or the kids.
    They lived as teens/tweens and had no handle on life nor how to raise kids.
    One set of awesome grandparents, one set that severed contact with me and my brother 3 times.
    I tried to kill myself at 13.

    Dad severed contacts with me and my brother twice.

    Mom got alzheimer at 58 and died soon after, was not allowed to attend funeral.

    All in all I like my current life and have a great partner and two lovely kids. Awesome group of friends as well.

    They should have never met, never have kids and certainly not at that age. It fucked me up something fierce.


  • There is a way for this to stop and you probably agree. Russia just has to stop and go home. That’s it, simple. But they will not. This indicates that the aggressor will not stop, whatever you do. You conceding by stopping yourself and handing over what the aggressor wants will not stop this war.

    To put it simple: you have no control over what the aggressor does.

    What you do control though is your own actions. And this entails to make the aggressor see that their actions are not tolerated. How do you achieve this proverbial “line in the sand”? By not letting them cross that line. What needs to be done to achieve that goal? By using force.

    Bullies will not stop until you stop their aggression.

    Your wish to “just stop already, concede and give in, go for a cease fire” will not deter nor stop the aggressor. History has shown us this simple fact time and time again. Your desire and wish for peace is noble and understandable but not realistic. I think deep down you know or realize this but let your desire for peace cloud this realization.

    We are strange and weird monkeys as a species, having a moral concept or desire does not overcome this fact. Deal with it you must or your fellow monkeys will take your bananas and will give not two shits on how you feel or what your desires are.





  • Yep, you can. Came as a surprise to me as well at the time but you definitely can.

    You probably got this already if you look ta the Tesseract page and how this all works but I wanted to share with you my docker-compose file to give you an idea how I did it. I find it helpful to look at examples of others sometimes.

    Good luck!

  • Everything in this video is ‘fixable’ : hold the damn tab while pouring water, install the bin liner properly, cellophane is not that difficult, etc.

    But the thing that triggers me like nothing else is the semi-perforated ‘easy opening’ half-circle of that carton box. Those fail without fail and I am convinced it is constructed by satan himself, just to mess with your mind and propel your anger to new heights. Same as with those easy to tear strips, they never rip in one go and always fail at about 5% of the tear-action. May the gods of retribution take extra notice and effort to espouse their vindictive cruel ways upon these so called ‘designers’ who invent them. May the fleas of a thousand camels invade the crotch of the person. And may their arms be to short too scratch.






  • Never seen a more useless group of people in a room. This means nothing. It is like children pretending to be shop owners and playing business.

    Just ignore this as it is meant to rile up people, just ignore them. Ukraine and Europe should send a message to russia that they are ready for a surrender and prepared to start talking about reparations from russia. If they do not respond continue bombing them. In fact, with the support of Europe Ukraine should expand the war into russia (beyond what they already have).

    Main thing to take away from this is: ignore the children on a BS mission and setup a fact and reality based alternative where adults can join and discuss what to do with this war from russia and how to handle and close it.
    If you respond to this nonsense meeting and get annoyed or whatever, you just legitimized that group of clowns.
