I have only been trying to clarify your view and there is no strawman so if you see that as somehow hostile or adversarial then that is very much a problem you will carry with you after I’ve forgotten this exchange.

Peace to you.

That is very kind of you. I am a strong reader; in fact I’m not too humble to mention that I was the recipient of multiple Pizza Hut Personal Pan Pizzas in my youth, as recognition for my excellent reading skills, and so it is touching for you to recognize it.

My fellow strong readers will be well aware that there are multiple ways for a country to cease existing. Some peaceful, and some violent.

As thoroughly insightful, erudite, and compellingly written as that gem of a comment was, it did not specify. And given your server, it seemed prudent to seek specifics.

Thank you for the helpful response.

It depends on if you are talking about the entity or the people in the entity.

If the former, I do not disagree. There need not be states at all in fact, as a matter of preference.

If you are talking about the people, well, it sounds like you are talking about more death and destruction so no thanks.

You’re both right because there is no We in America.

That is the problem we must solve.

This is actually two fun facts for me with the first one being that there is a star called Algol.

Also I just looked up that track and it is fucking gnarly! It took me back to Jawbox. Really rad, thanks for making me aware.

Edit: Might as well pay it forward

I can’t believe it’s been left up this long. I came across it like 5 hours ago and thought I took a screenshot and then the gummy kicked in and I spent the next 4 hours going down the YouTube rabbit hole on a woodworker who bought a farm, which I am technically still in.

Anyway when I remembered and first went to post this, I realized I hadn’t actually taken the screen shot. I figured there was no way the edit was still up all this time later but sure it enough, it was and still is.

Stop, I don’t need another reason to love piracy.

I hope he didn’t wash the seasoning out of that tub before he prepared this.

I’m my bathroom, pooping, and I’m not likely to forget.

For the love of the fucking game.

Trying to work up the courage to troubleshoot a very worrying disk error on the new NAS I’ve been building, which if solved will leave me the problem of working up the courage to try and migrate to the new server without losing my Plex library settings and progress.

Basically I’m frozen in fear.
