<2022-05-02T02:19:26.000Z> TurboNormie: "what if Crisp was right all along and everyone is actually too retarded to affect anything"
<2022-05-02T21:42:55.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: which doom scenario is this referring to
<2022-05-02T21:43:39.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: or is it fedi related
<2022-05-02T21:49:44.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: even a lot of average to good people can't affect anything, occasionally someone truly exceptional or lucky does though, but it's very rare. 
<2022-05-02T21:53:29.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: one thing I learned is if you're smart and out there then the other smart people find you a lot of the time
<2022-05-02T23:12:46.000Z> TurboNormie: Just generally unimpressed by the online right these days
<2022-05-02T23:13:31.000Z> TurboNormie: If the best thing anyone can point to are podcasts and podcast adjacent at this point it's kind of all for naught
<2022-05-02T23:59:28.000Z> TurboNormie: Hope you're doing well man
<2022-05-04T00:14:54.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: lately I got into listening to great courses history courses instead of podcasts, that's what I listen to now during my hour a day walks
<2022-05-04T00:15:06.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: well been doing that for a while
<2022-05-04T00:15:15.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: I'm doing well, busy, no time for online shit. 
<2022-05-04T00:16:47.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: One thing I realized is if you listen to powerless people who just complain all the time it just trains you to feel powerless and complain, many political podcasts (not just altright) are just powerless people complaining. Better to listen to the people you aspire to be, like people who have accomplished something and/or have a vast knowledge you can learn from. You don't learn much from current events it's just one step better than gossiping about online personalities or something. 
<2022-05-04T00:18:16.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: if you want to be smarter or accomplish something listen to smart people and people who have accomplished something.. nobody on the online far right really has afaik. The smartest ones just tune out and concentrate on their families or something (better investment of time)
<2022-05-04T00:19:23.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: I like some of them still but I don't aspire to be them nor can I learn from them that's why I moved on 
<2022-05-04T00:20:13.000Z> TurboNormie: I'm growing closer to realizing I've treated it all like more of a hobby than anything serious these past few years
<2022-05-04T00:21:09.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: yeah it's world of warcraft but instead it's world of right wing podcasts... there's some valuable nuggets of info from some people like for instance borzoi but once you get it you're on your own and not much more from listening endlessly
<2022-05-04T00:21:28.000Z> TurboNormie: I'm in a position I could Do Something™ if I threw everything I had away, but why?
<2022-05-04T00:22:09.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: rethink that when you know a bunch of yous and you can pool resources
<2022-05-04T00:22:56.000Z> TurboNormie: Maybe it's the realities of class distinction or something but I just don't see it happening from the talent pool I know of
<2022-05-04T00:23:26.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: warning friends and family of whats coming is doing something, lol
<2022-05-04T00:23:30.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: I do that
<2022-05-04T00:23:55.000Z> TurboNormie: Yeah, and I know some of the inside figures of da moobment IRL too
<2022-05-04T00:24:12.000Z> TurboNormie: And I have a large normie friendgroup
<2022-05-04T00:24:26.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: you're better off than a lot of other online right people then
<2022-05-04T00:24:32.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: the ones who have no friends are truly fucked
<2022-05-04T00:25:34.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: or only online friends which is the same thing as having no friends
<2022-05-04T00:25:35.000Z> TurboNormie: Yeah but I'm at this supposed "and then we'll get there and it'll all work out" position and still feeling like I'm staring down a Titan
<2022-05-04T00:26:15.000Z> TurboNormie: I sincerely hope you're doing well, you're one of the ones I want to make it
<2022-05-04T00:26:21.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: nothing will work out in our lifetimes lol but we can decrease the amount of suffering we have 
<2022-05-04T00:26:37.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: hopefully I'm on the right track to making it now
<2022-05-04T00:26:48.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: things are ironically better than they've been in years
<2022-05-04T00:27:17.000Z> TurboNormie: I'm the same way, the worse everything's got since 2015, the personally more successful I've been
<2022-05-04T00:27:29.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: at first I was keeping my distance online but now I'm too busy to be sucked into any online shit 
<2022-05-04T00:27:39.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: at all
<2022-05-04T00:27:45.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: I don't even have time to check most days
<2022-05-04T00:28:28.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: the elon buying twitter and roe vs wade shit is top tier though, having a laugh on that
<2022-05-04T00:28:31.000Z> TurboNormie: I'm an addict but this is literally my one outlet. I watch some racing on TV but it's shitposting or being productive, no in between
<2022-05-04T00:28:53.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: you dont post that much so it's not much of an addiction I still check your tl sometimes
<2022-05-04T00:29:11.000Z> TurboNormie: Neither will probably mean much in the end but increasing the neuroticism is great
<2022-05-04T00:30:28.000Z> TurboNormie: You know what's also good for your soul? Gardening
<2022-05-04T00:30:35.000Z> TurboNormie: Now's the time of year
<2022-05-04T00:30:51.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: yeah some friends I know think the roe vs wade thing will be a big deal but I watch everything in fastforward from being busy and I'm more bearish
<2022-05-04T00:30:53.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: that's good 
<2022-05-04T00:31:55.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: I dont have a clue with that and don't have land to do it on where I am, my mom sister def do though
<2022-05-04T00:32:38.000Z> TurboNormie: Get a window box, even that and some ferns or something in your room will go a long way
<2022-05-04T00:33:21.000Z> TurboNormie: Not pushing it, just seen some of my IRL buddies really flourish chasing what little space and sunlight they had to work with
<2022-05-04T00:33:25.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: yeah I got multiple balconeys
<2022-05-04T00:33:42.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: one of them could hold a decent amount
<2022-05-04T00:33:45.000Z> TurboNormie: You can rock and roll with that
<2022-05-04T00:34:21.000Z> TurboNormie: You can build mini terraced raised beds with 2x4s
<2022-05-04T00:35:18.000Z> TurboNormie: I'm sort of reverting to just enjoying that sort of wholesome boomer stuff
<2022-05-04T00:35:29.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: place catches a lot of sun 
<2022-05-04T00:35:46.000Z> TurboNormie: Maybe pre-boomer since it's my silent generation grandparents who instilled it
<2022-05-04T00:35:59.000Z> TurboNormie: Basil, lots of basil
<2022-05-04T00:36:55.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: I should try a few things there's a garden center close by too
<2022-05-04T00:37:00.000Z> TurboNormie: Then you make your own pesto
<2022-05-04T00:37:01.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: easy to get anything
<2022-05-04T00:37:04.000Z> TurboNormie: And then
<2022-05-04T00:37:14.000Z> TurboNormie attached file https://i.poastcdn.org/6c57659a69f31b117b8931432194acb3359f39e9f192b671710d2ef1b2b4d7c5.jpg
<2022-05-04T00:38:56.000Z> TurboNormie: The prebuilt cedar boxes aren't bad, they just fall apart after 1-2 seasons
<2022-05-04T00:39:56.000Z> TurboNormie: And the small soil area means you have to be vigilant with watering if you live in a hot climate (nodox)
<2022-05-04T00:42:11.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: canada so it's cold af in winter and humid and warm in summer
<2022-05-04T00:47:43.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: that's why I was friends with graf lol (online only)
<2022-05-04T00:47:45.000Z> TurboNormie: Yeah, tough climate https://i.poastcdn.org/d6c2c33bf00d4dd5eb42baf53854349534b065a10393f49215a9c3dc3ac84c28.jpg
<2022-05-04T00:48:03.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: you can grow a lot in the summer
<2022-05-04T00:48:06.000Z> TurboNormie: My roses further south
<2022-05-04T00:48:57.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: any part of canada that's flat you're good
<2022-05-04T00:49:04.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: canadian shield is another story
<2022-05-04T00:49:17.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: and that's most of the country
<2022-05-04T00:49:21.000Z> TurboNormie: I've been to Montreal (meh) and Vancouver (would be great if not for the Chinese ruining it financially)
<2022-05-04T00:49:57.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: best parts of canada are quiet country parts
<2022-05-04T00:50:55.000Z> TurboNormie: And I have a lot of business relations with Toronto which seems to be the absolute center of globohomo hell
<2022-05-04T00:51:10.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: yeah been there many times
<2022-05-04T00:51:28.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: it's like shitty 2nd tier new york in some ways
<2022-05-04T00:51:46.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: not all bad though though but kind of bad
<2022-05-04T00:51:58.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: restaurants surprisingly good
<2022-05-04T00:54:36.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: I was joking on twitter recently that the hellcat and ford get are both made outside of toronto (multimatic is in markham I think and the dodge factory is in brampton)
<2022-05-04T00:54:44.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: *ford gt
<2022-05-04T01:45:17.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: I'll add on the podcast thing a smart friend of mine told me that all philosophers eventually outgrow the teachings of their tutors / teachers whatever you want to call it so the tendency to think that way is a natural progressive and a sign of people of a superior intellect. A lot of even smart people eventually fall into a pattern of regurgitating the same stuff and only the truly smart / intelligent people realize when it's time to move on and get out of the comfort zone, if that comes naturally even better. 
<2022-05-04T01:45:43.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: *natural progression I mean
<2022-05-04T01:46:22.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: it's a sign you want more, which is good, overall a positive feeling not a negative or blackpill one 
<2022-05-04T01:48:02.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: so there's another level of people you need to reach and eventually you'll think they're retarded too and you keep doing that until you die that's philosophy and living a fulfilling life 
<2022-05-22T21:38:42.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: insulin shortage and needle shortage (for insulin) in some parts of canada. apparenty americans doing border runs to buy  canadian insulin due to shortages across border or price issues  part of the problemAlso some heart medications delayed 
<2022-05-22T22:04:54.000Z> TurboNormie: Baby formula was the canary in the coal mine
<2022-05-22T22:05:44.000Z> TurboNormie: Not for any specific reason, it just happened to be first, but it was a sign that "can't fail" was now able to fail
<2022-05-22T22:08:47.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: all the shit I'm mentioning is in super active suburban areas near urban megacenters 
<2022-05-22T22:08:52.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: not middle of nowhere lol
<2022-05-22T22:16:29.000Z> TurboNormie: There's a reason why I've always been focused on manufacturing and supply chain all the way back to the Twitter days
<2022-05-22T22:17:03.000Z> TurboNormie: It's terrifyingly complex and once it starts going wrong it becomes the greatest coordination problem ever posited
<2022-05-22T22:18:37.000Z> TurboNormie: This isn't a purposeful Great Reset although it always feels safe and comfy it is to imagine someone is in charge of all this
<2022-05-22T22:27:21.000Z> TurboNormie: Like I said a while ago, I hope you are doing well and you keep your friends and family close
<2022-05-22T22:27:39.000Z> TurboNormie: Not just as well wishes but we're all going to need that soon
<2022-05-22T22:28:34.000Z> TurboNormie: It's not going to be like the movies. It's just going to be deeply sad and seemingly everlasting
<2022-05-22T22:35:16.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: stuff is going good for me careerwise, family wise shit is real bad but not going to go into that but we're trying to deal with some terminal illness shit going on that kind of messed me up this weekend. I'm beter than the last few years though.
<2022-05-22T22:36:07.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: communication can be a nightmare because I refuse to do it over facebook with family lol\
<2022-05-22T22:36:56.000Z> TurboNormie: Sorry to hear that buddy
<2022-05-22T22:37:18.000Z> TurboNormie: I hope whatever it is that ails them comes to its final conclusion as peacefully as possible
<2022-05-22T22:37:18.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: after 30 you have to get used to people just dying, dying every year
<2022-05-22T22:42:09.000Z> TurboNormie: I've got a grandparent who just got on a cocktail of heart drugs at nearly 90. It's going to be a rough ride in this environment.
<2022-05-22T22:42:37.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: another one is much harder to get a cab in some areas now, or an uber. Uber's constantly cancelling to get better rates, cab dispatchers understaffed and overwhelmed. It's not bad-bad but you haveto like, try much harder
<2022-05-22T22:44:03.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: vs. something that was relfex automatic before
<2022-05-22T22:44:35.000Z> TurboNormie: Uber is absolutely worthless these days
<2022-05-22T22:44:58.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: uber in 2016 was like 'summon car to location right away' good
<2022-05-22T22:45:07.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: at least in urban areas
<2022-05-22T22:45:20.000Z> TurboNormie: It was in decline before COVID but the economics of gas, parts shortages, labor demands, and car prices have murdered it
<2022-05-22T22:45:30.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: yeah
<2022-05-22T22:46:00.000Z> TurboNormie: In ~2014-2015 it was "summon decent late model car with a friendly hipster to drive you back from downtown after drinking"
<2022-05-22T22:46:55.000Z> TurboNormie: In 2017-onwords it was "summon subprime Nissan Altime with blown suspension, ABS and Airbag lights flashing on the dash, driven by some flavor of immigrant who somehow doesn't speak english"
<2022-05-22T22:48:01.000Z> TurboNormie: One thing Uber got away with forever was offloading maintenance to the drivers. That works when cars and loans are dirt cheap but there is a reason why professional taxi services have massive garages and in-house mechanics
<2022-05-22T22:48:30.000Z> TurboNormie: Taxi service will eat up a car in ~2 years without good wrenching being done on it
<2022-05-22T22:48:49.000Z> TurboNormie: And now that subprime is imploding and Altimas are $10k regardless, it's all ogre
<2022-05-22T22:51:59.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: yeah and serious taxi companies had fleets of like crown vics or whatever easily mainstained shit
<2022-05-22T22:52:06.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: back in day
<2022-05-22T22:53:01.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: or the lincoln town car, great car, a lincoln in a suit
<2022-05-22T22:53:10.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: crown vic I mean
<2022-05-22T22:53:38.000Z> TurboNormie: Panther Platform Fords are the best
<2022-05-22T22:54:19.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: sorry no more understressed v8 we need a a 4 banger with turbos and complex everything
<2022-05-22T22:54:48.000Z> TurboNormie: Always wanted the Town Car from Justified https://i.poastcdn.org/89222405b78b053f25ae821a7cd82be78a932d10105afeef448c175149c3f53c.jpg
<2022-05-22T22:55:03.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: friend of mine had one as his daily was nice
<2022-05-22T22:55:11.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: good greenhouse in front easy to see around
<2022-05-22T22:55:22.000Z> TurboNormie: Toyota is pushing over 320hp from a 1.3l 3 cylinder in the new Corolla hot hatch
<2022-05-22T22:55:52.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: I mean at that point it's kind of cool
<2022-05-22T22:56:53.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: but make a fucking mid engine mini sports car with that then we're talking
<2022-05-22T22:58:01.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: the alfa 4c was cool, I loved seeing that eveyrtime I did
<2022-05-22T22:58:11.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: it's like a square though, so weird
<2022-05-22T22:58:30.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: short but wide
<2022-05-22T22:59:17.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: like 2/3 of a ferrari
<2022-05-22T22:59:25.000Z> TurboNormie: They're cool, an Italian Elise basically
<2022-05-22T23:00:07.000Z> TurboNormie: I had a Lincoln Mk VIII for a bit. RWD, independent rear suspension, 300hp 32v Aluminum Block Ford Modular V8
<2022-05-22T23:00:13.000Z> TurboNormie: Deceptively fast
<2022-05-22T23:00:22.000Z> TurboNormie: Always broken lmao
<2022-05-22T23:01:06.000Z> TurboNormie: I have 2 speeds: Enormous luxobarge with a V8 and as comfy as driving a couch
<2022-05-22T23:01:26.000Z> TurboNormie: And way too small for me to fit, finicky, lightweight, euro sports car
<2022-05-22T23:02:59.000Z> TurboNormie: I am physically too tall to fit in an ND Miata but I still want one
<2022-05-22T23:07:58.000Z> TurboNormie: I'm in sort of the same situation as you in that my career and personal life are going great and if it was just ~5 years ago I might buy a really stupid toy sports car for fun but now I can't fucking afford anything
<2022-05-22T23:08:24.000Z> TurboNormie: I go on bringatrailer and watch shit that went for $7k just a few years ago go for $20+
<2022-05-25T04:03:51.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: I bought a freezer
<2022-05-25T04:04:09.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: got a good deal
<2022-05-25T04:08:28.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: immediately put a 10lbs bag of flour in it just to keep the weight even
<2022-05-25T13:28:15.000Z> TurboNormie: I'm really close to going full "mylar bags of flour and rice in hone depot buckets"
<2022-05-25T13:28:35.000Z> TurboNormie: I've got a second fridge in my garage but also need more freezer space than that
<2022-05-26T04:28:48.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: I'm already planning on buying food grade buckets I know a place
<2022-05-26T04:29:13.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: but it's more to soften shortages if shit goes bad I need to get away form where I am quickly
<2022-05-26T11:01:57.000Z> TurboNormie: I went through a prepper phase after 2016 so I have freeze dried rations out the ass lol
<2022-05-26T11:02:15.000Z> TurboNormie: "OMG they're gonna cause a Civil War because of Trump!"
<2022-05-26T11:02:21.000Z> TurboNormie: Stupid times
<2022-05-26T11:02:58.000Z> TurboNormie: Honestly though, what do food shortages look like in the fattest, dumbest country on Earth?
<2022-05-26T11:03:49.000Z> TurboNormie: Half the population are HFCS blobs, what happens when the soda fountain stops flowing? I really have no idea what this is going to look like.
<2022-05-26T11:05:21.000Z> TurboNormie: There will still be a pretty decent amount of calories available because America can still be fairly autarkic but i know entire generations of people who haven't cooked anything that wasn't a prepared or frozen meal in their entire lives
<2022-05-28T17:01:33.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: when you start seeing flour not on shelves then it's time to panic
<2022-05-28T17:02:57.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: I think the biggest thing personally won't be the food shortage it will be the insulin shortage, every diabetic going into coma or cardiac arrest will make any covid 'hospital being swamped' issues turn into a picnic. I'm making a point of cutting down on booze and losing weight just so I don't haveto worry as much about ever getting that condition because it will prob be a death sentence. 
<2022-05-28T17:03:28.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: they're going to be triaging diabetics and just letting them fucking die
<2022-05-28T17:03:44.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: also some people might have such a profound sugar addiction who knows what will happen. 
<2022-05-28T17:05:04.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: sugar, caffeine, tv, netflix, maybe in some cases alcohol.. what happens when that gets taken away and people have nothing to fill that void. It's not just that people don't cook, they also don't read, or do any activity to fill their time outside of work and being a slob
<2022-05-28T17:06:04.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: anyone who can't do a basic repair or cook their own food won't make it
<2022-05-28T17:06:52.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: anyone with internet addiction won't make it
<2022-05-28T17:06:57.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: anyone without irl friends won't make it
<2022-05-28T17:07:25.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: or at least a big clannish family if they don't have outside friends, that can compensate for it
<2022-05-28T17:08:07.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: they never shut down liquor stores in canada and employee told me if they did the hospitals would get swamped by people with alcohol withdrawel symptoms
<2022-05-28T17:08:43.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: this in acountry where a bottle of vodka (fifth) is 23-25$ lol
<2022-05-28T17:14:50.000Z> TurboNormie: The list of those who are NGMI is enormous
<2022-05-28T17:15:22.000Z> TurboNormie: Like you said, if you don't have a strong IRL social network you are done for
<2022-05-28T17:16:17.000Z> TurboNormie: You can even sort of see this reflected online as many NEET and extremely online types are clearly in a downward spiral
<2022-05-28T17:16:57.000Z> TurboNormie: They'll just become more socially maladjusted and schizo the worse things get and the further they retreat into their "safe" internet bubbles
<2022-05-28T17:21:32.000Z> TurboNormie: The Anglosphere in particular is living like it's the last party of its life but it's rapidly approaching 4am, everyone is beyond blackout drunk, and it really should have been over by now and every minute it keeps going the worse things get for the near future.
<2022-05-28T19:27:27.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: one of my friends gave me the best advice: If you hate the deep state don't use the thing they literally created to control people all the time (the internet). If you're online all day you're swimming in mkultra soup.
<2022-05-28T19:27:47.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: if you're dissident, you're just giving away your game
<2022-05-29T15:18:27.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: something I was posting about on twitter but I think people in far out areas like urban sprawl suburbs or spread out rural areas going to have it worse than people on denser areas in short term. Mainly because of increased cost to supply more spread out areas and built in cost of people having to drive everywhere. This doesn't include RETARDED cities like LA, Vegas, or phoenix which will just crumble into the desert from which they came. 
<2022-05-29T15:36:06.000Z> TurboNormie: Cities like Houston and Dallas that stretch for 60 miles in any direction are going to be terrible places to live with $6+ per gallon gas
<2022-05-29T15:36:33.000Z> TurboNormie: Rural areas are also going to become very impoverished very quickly
<2022-05-29T15:38:11.000Z> TurboNormie: I guess you could call where I live an inner ring suburb. Close enough I am concerned about crime but also within reasonable bike ride from the real farmer's market (the bulk one, not the hipster one)
<2022-05-29T15:39:07.000Z> TurboNormie: This Monaco Grand Prix is absolute chaos btw
<2022-05-29T23:06:31.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: oh yeah the DFW is a shitshow in the making, now do LA where they also don't have water
<2022-05-29T23:07:05.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: I don't watch any racing these days
<2022-05-29T23:07:27.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: I mainly watched nascar and that was mainly more than 20 years ago
<2022-05-30T01:00:25.000Z> TurboNormie: I fell away from motorsport for a long time but not only is F1 good again for the first time in forever, I have a need to pick up some healthier hobbies than e-racism these days
<2022-05-31T02:15:50.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: glad they figured out how to make the cars fun again
<2022-05-31T11:02:20.000Z> TurboNormie: It turns out making them less aero dependent work! Who could have guessed
<2022-05-31T11:03:08.000Z> TurboNormie: But honestly, half of it is Hamilton getting exposed every single race
<2022-05-31T11:03:33.000Z> TurboNormie: I always hated him even as a normie, he was absolutely forced down everyone's throats
<2022-05-31T12:57:37.000Z> TurboNormie: I am so sorry for your loss https://i.poastcdn.org/5bda2221f12c1985c1f94acdbb599a1722f70c36fc94c40f6005eb2229843942.png
<2022-05-31T12:57:42.000Z> TurboNormie: Lol
<2022-05-31T13:37:48.000Z> TurboNormie: People are fucking retarded with the hyperbole over the vaccine
<2022-05-31T13:38:48.000Z> TurboNormie: Didn't get it, it worked out like I thought (ineffective and caused some rare issues), but this belief everyone who got it is going to drop dead is retarded
<2022-06-01T15:50:15.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: I'm totally fine but glad I didn't get boosted, fam member got second booster and got bad covid 1 week later, the boosters don't do shit vs omicron or whatever it is
<2022-06-01T15:54:06.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: might even make it worse.. I dunno.. I think my middle of the road decision was fine. Once omicron came out and was super contagious I knew people would just get herd immunity so boosting was dumb
<2022-06-01T16:00:07.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: my one friend who boosted also got it, I haven't been sick since january, that could have been it but was like mild 1 day flu 6 day cold and I don't bother with test shit, I just stay home and sleep if I'm sick
<2022-06-01T16:11:27.000Z> TurboNormie: I'm just glad everyone's over it although it's funny that there are both people on the left and right who will never let it go for opposite reasons
<2022-06-01T16:12:21.000Z> TurboNormie: COVID shit is kind of like 2016 era Trumpism, it was such a unifying moment for the beleaguered right that some people just cannot let it go
<2022-06-01T22:28:21.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: you think it's funny I think it's by design, I think covid hysteria and vax hysteria are both simultaneous psyops.. it's too perfect
<2022-06-01T22:28:47.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: and also that everyone reversed positions from where they started (right was bullish on covid at first)
<2022-06-02T11:09:29.000Z> TurboNormie: I mean, everyone was hoping COVID was the champion to slay the dragon of modernity
<2022-06-02T11:10:03.000Z> TurboNormie: And then it turned out the CFR was pretty much down to Chinese ventilator protocols used in Milan and NYC turning people's lungs into hamburger
<2022-06-02T11:11:46.000Z> TurboNormie: I knew it was all over by early April when I went to Lowes Home Improvement (Home Depot competitor, idk if they have it in Canada) and the 1,000 car parking lot was overflowing. ~1,000+ people in the store and no outbreak. So much for the most contagious disease ever.
<2022-06-02T11:12:07.000Z> TurboNormie: They kept home improvement and grocery stores open the whole time here
<2022-06-02T11:12:27.000Z> TurboNormie: I wound up building a large raised bed garden. That was a great month off of work
<2022-06-03T02:39:27.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: those places were open in canada as well thye just had some capacity limits, and I didn't hear of any superspread event in a grocery store ever
<2022-06-03T10:58:29.000Z> TurboNormie: Yeah, it's important to remember the early hype had it pegged as being massively infectious to the point you were absolutely guaranteed to get it if anywhere near someone with even asymptomatic infection
<2022-06-03T10:59:28.000Z> TurboNormie: Then you realize a lot of that was driven by the plagueship in Japan and cruise ships amplify everything 100x over
<2022-06-03T11:00:59.000Z> TurboNormie: COVID did almost kill Hollywood and sportsball so there's that
<2022-06-03T11:01:41.000Z> TurboNormie: You really would have global revolution within 6 months of sportsball ceasing to exist
<2022-06-03T11:10:15.000Z> TurboNormie: Unfortunately, we don't live on that timeline so we get to bear witness to frightening decline while my sportsnormie friends discuss the finer points of contract law with regard to some stupid new PGA golf league competitor the Saudis are forming
<2022-06-04T18:23:57.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: I'm deleting this account tonight, time to do some cleanup, won't be using twitter either unless based elon actually buys it and implements changes.. I am on the matrix server for poast https://matrix.poa.st/#/room/#crispytech:poa.st I much prefer using that also dms are E2E encrypted
<2022-06-04T18:24:36.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: nanachitummy
<2022-06-04T18:27:43.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: fediverse dms are plaintext also never been a fan of that
<2022-06-04T22:30:13.000Z> TurboNormie: Cool
<2022-06-04T22:30:23.000Z> TurboNormie: Maybe a reason to finally get on matrix
<2022-06-04T23:04:51.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: yeah the matrix is fun sometimes
<2022-06-04T23:15:05.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: lewds doesn't want me to delete it but I;ll prob stop checking it
<2022-06-04T23:42:52.000Z> TurboNormie: Is there a decent android app?
<2022-06-05T00:00:24.000Z> TurboNormie: Got element and shot you a DM
<2022-06-05T00:23:57.000Z> TurboNormie: Did it work?
<2022-06-05T01:15:52.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: yeah, you need to approve dms from people
<2022-06-05T01:15:55.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: I did
<2022-06-27T16:07:19.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: did you leave matrix or was it from when graf flushed some accounts
<2022-06-27T19:38:42.000Z> TurboNormie: I got flushed, will get back in a bit
<2022-06-27T21:34:52.000Z> crisp@hidamari.apartments: yeah graf been hitting the sauce and taking names
<2022-06-27T21:50:29.000Z> TurboNormie: Yeah, he thought I was a fake because I didn't have an avatar, no problem though
<2022-06-29T01:23:42.000Z> TurboNormie: Did my dm go through?
<2022-06-30T02:08:43.000Z> TurboNormie: Did it?
