We ARE in bizarro world! Why do you think my rhetoric occasionally goes back to an alien UFO landing? That’s one ticket out!

@TheHappySpaceman
 
Rampant stupidity, science denial, and alternate facts.
 
Something that will hopefully be a short lived footnote.

@Zincy  
Hopefully. But hey, if the bald eagle goes extinct because of this, wouldn’t that be some symbolism?
 
@ArkyNoid  
…what?

@TheHappySpaceman
 
Exactly. Aliens are starting to make more sense than hoo mans.

“This is how liberty dies, with a muffled kkeeeeeeee as the last bald eagle dies in a coal plant”.

I’m beginning to think governments have some sort of quota on the amount of bills they create each year.

@SeraphimDawn  
They gotta do their jobs or else they get fired.

@SeraphimDawn
 
Our legal system is starting to resembled the Codex Imperiallis

@SeraphimDawn  
we need specifics on this…

@Shirani  
Governments having constant boner for passing laws for the sake of passing laws. Whether they make sense or not. It’s stupid.

@SeraphimDawn  
Here! Here!  
Also, we gotta repeal some of the shittier laws too.

@SonGokuMonkey
 
But how do “we” do it? Take actual control and end this representative system? Storm Bastilles and stuff?

@ArkyNoid  
Or, as Adam Kokesh once put it, make government obsolete by engaging in purely voluntary interactions as much as possible, even if it’s sometimes illegal to do so.

@SonGokuMonkey
 
Numbers are needed though! Too few people seem to care.

@ArkyNoid  
I say give it time. A critical mass of people upset with our current government (and the willingness to do something about it) is going to happen sooner or later.

It’s always toughest right before I go to bed.

In the waning hours is when the mind introspects, so the thoughts tend to be the strongest.

I wasted like 80 bucks apparently. I replaced my sound system due to severe audio buzzing. Did everything I could think to fix it. Now my new system was also buzzing. Which left me very, very confused.
 

 
 
Lo and behold, it was interference from the power cable. All I had to do was move one speaker cable to the opposite side of my computer.

@Zincy  
I just really don’t want to be alone

@Zincy  
A buzzing sound? You should replace the capacitors. Some of them might be dead.

@Albus Fahrenheits
 
It was just outside interference. Until I can get a ferrous wrap I’ve just moved the audio cable away from the power cable.
 
It’s my own fault for buying cheap cables without shielding.
 

 
 
@SquiggyBomb
 
That’s totally understandable.

@Zincy  
I see. You need the ferrous wrap to have a Faraday cage effect to prevent outside interference.

@Albus Fahrenheits
 
I’ll buy a ferrous ring.
 
Or make a DIY one. I made one once out of brass pipe filters (for smoking pipes, not plumbing), it worked fairly well. Looked ghetto as hell, but worked.

Germany is making it so fucking hard for me! I need to translate documents, certify existing documents, finish my Vorpraktikum report, get health insurance and all the goddamn instructions are fucking vague and confusing!

@HJSDGCE
 
I took 4 years of German and can barely speak a lick of it. I don’t envy you right now.

@Zincy  
4 years is quite a long time since I spent like one and a half year studying German to B1.
 
I still suck at it though.
