Happiness breeds self esteem, self esteem breeds confidence, confidence breeds learning. Education, confidence, self esteem, and happiness are all antithetical to fear and obedience. We're much easier to rule if we're stressed out. Plus, the real reason for return to office is real estate value. It has nothing to do with worker morale or productivity.

Trump is unprincipled. He simply doesn't have convictions beyond selfish gain. The good news is he doesn't truly hate anyone. But he also doesn't love anyone. He has no true sense of worth at all. He is completely ambivalent to all things with one major exception. He is remorselessly opposed to anyone who doesn't contribute to his personal aggrandizement or who stands in direct opposition to his ego. He doesn't give a shit about immigrants "ruining America", because he doesn't give a shit about America in the first place. He doesn't give a shit about crime because it doesn't effect him directly. He doesn't care about jobs because he's never had one and doesn't understand the point. He just follows his nose like Tucan Sam, but instead of fruity cereal, it's prestige he covets. And he's so sick, that becoming president of the United States isn't even enough. Nothing is enough. His sense of self esteem is so diminished and corrupted that he would literally see the earth destoyed if it meant that he felt important for the brief final moments. I truly believe that his whole raison d'être and subsequent global fuckery can be traced to that one single moment that Obama got a laugh at his expense. This is just how petty he really is, and how fucked we really are.

I bet he gets naked, covers himself in vegetable shortening, and jumps head first into an old well, never to be heard from again.

I'm stumped on my sign.

Threw the opp into the particle collider,

watched his ass get pulled apart into a million pieces

Turned his sorry ass into some data

Yes, but at the cost of long range visibility and wind, which I guess would only be a problem in certain specific circumstances.

If your opponent is of choleric temper, seek to irritate him. Pretend to be weak, that he may grow arrogant.

If being happy is an option, then you won't readily acquiesce to suffering. The real reason conservatives hate non married, non cis, non straight, child free, educated, metropolitan, singing, dancing, laughing, people people is that they are themselves deeply sad, and the prospect of alternatives is an affront to their chosen salf made prison. They're like attack dogs that have been abused and riled up, and the GOP is like the junkyard owners that uses their misguided, misdirected, focussless rage to protect their kingdom of shit. Who are themselves trapped within the confines of a hollow parody of reality, which they must defend at all costs or face the consequences of ontological collapse.

My personal, unscientific read on the CHE situation is that it's mote likely a collection of common responses to anxiety/panic caused by being too high. I have no first hand experience though. But I can tell you that tye advent of things such as the Astropink Alien Brain, coming in at 500mg of thc in a single gummy, supports that we're in unprecedented times potency and ease of use wise. That's roughly equivalent to the THC of an entire eighth of flower in one go. I can easily see people biting off more than they can chew, so to speak.

Full disclosure, I don't have autism. But I've used this model/brand semi daily for years.

 

Black mode is just all luck and all suck. It just feels like I'm playing an early beta, worse version of Balatro.

It's just really not fun. No hands remaining means no money, no money means no boosters/consumables/jokers, no boosters/ jokers/consumables means no enhancement, which leads to more antes with no remaining hands and the cycle continues until you get a frustrating boss and lose by 50 chips for the 50th time. It's like anti-balatro. With no fun cards, or money, or anything exciting at all, it just becomes a lame video poker game. I feel punished for playing. It's like Video Poker with Bennett Foddy. It's completely thrown a wet blanket on all the enthusiasm I've built up to this point.

Edit:

Tldr: it takes the deck building out of the deck building game, leaving only poker.
