Upon some reflection, rescinding a rant written here.

I feel you even without knowing what you ranted about. I have my own rants.

Traveling the country and coming back to Seattle to be greeted by 32°F and rain.

Because it's a liberal western city, naturally the power is out half of the places I go. It was like when I was standing at a bus stop during Seattle snowmageddon, ankle deep in snow (because west coast liberals don't own plows), being pelted in freezing rain next to a lady who just kept chanting "This is hell." Yes it is!

My snobby Seattle elite coworkers always wonder how I get so much work done while traveling. To start, not living in hell frozen and flooded over helps...

So tired of hoes (non sexist statement since I am referring to a dude and a chick here) getting manic and quitting their jobs after going on 2 or 3 dates with me. That is a guaranteed way to make me disappear. I find independence sexy and dependence unsexy. At no point have I ever told these hoes, you know what a good idea is? Quitting your job and relying on me. Nope, nope, I sure as fuck NEVER said that.

And then when I patiently explain that what they did is stupid, they get all critical of me for working so hard and having multiple jobs. Like if you were actually concerned about that why didn't you tell ME to quit one of MY jobs instead of quitting your own.

I wish I could give a personality test to people I date rather than finding out they are histrionic parasites through their actions.

I only truly love one of these people I've been seeing because she is a busy AF baller like me and given that we're gradually getting to new milestones like traveling together at the end of the month I am hoping that relationship gets more real. She and I feel like predatory cats in a world of stupid passive mice sometimes, everyone laughs at me for dating chicks who are "scary" and "look like they will stab you" but honestly I have been told I am scary myself my whole life too and I know how to assort myself.

Gimme dat predator girl who abruptly texts me "Everyone is stupid and I miss you" and sends me the goods, not these victims who only know how to take.

I'm tired of the disorganized workplace that I work at.

Boss: "Anybody want to be the point of contact for <giant, perhaps tragically doomed initiative>? Probably 15-50% of your time."
Me: <looks around> <raises hand>

I needed to either get out of the current (fairly comfortable) rut or change jobs, so, yay. But I know I'm going to regret this frequently.

Three of my gfs in vegas want to do something bad to one of my gfs in pdx because the gf in pdx gave me some convincing evidence that one of my gfs in vegas is married. One of the girls in vegas actually fucked up by spilling the beans about this to pdx girl. The two other vegas girls seem to suspect that the third spilled the beans, and all four of these chicks have been losing their minds about this texting me at all hours about it the past two days.

I am just cracking up because the crap these gangsta chicks are saying about "knowing who to trust" and "needing to know who they can keep near" is right outta Zalanthas. It's literally been like talking to three chicks outta Red Storm saying "Who is the person in Luir's saying our pack leader is a secret Nilazi, we need to know." I am like the half-elf fuckup in the middle sobbing about banging a secret Nilazi and just avoiding name dropping at all costs so that someone doesn't end up a corpse in the desert.

Don't get wrapped up with the Russian and Italian mobs, kiddos.

Because continuing to be awful is a kink of mine, east coast supremacists can use the cities New York (Tuluk), Atlantic City (Luir's), D.C (Nak) and Miami (Red Storm) in north-south order. I'll be damned if I ever spend significant time on the east coast, but traveling has taught me that the entirety of America is a layer cake of regulation and disregulation, it's why people like KRittenhouse cross state lines to fite. Also sorry I don't have global examples, I am a stupid American, much like illiterate Zalanthans.

Web comics that update once a week are no fun because you want to know what is going on.

Finding substitute to Soda that aren't just water is hard.

Most Lemonades are so full of sugar I might as well be drinking soda

Sweet teas aren't much better.

I drink a fuck ton of water but I want alternatives damnit x.x

Black coffee and tea dude. Friend of mine who is an ex pro bike racer is doing that 16 hour fasting diet (I think Iiyola has done this for a while, I just started) and coffee and tea doesn't break fast.

Low calorie sweetners like monk fruit, etc will break fast, but if you need your drinks sweet monk fruit is nice.

Jihelu · « **Reply #29414 on:** November 23, 2021, 02:08:09 PM »

Monk fruit sounds fancy might try that.

As for coffee: I'm trying to avoid caffeine and I'm not a huge fan of the taste to begin with so decaf is meh

As for tea: I guess I could learn to enjoy unsweet tea but also the caffeine thing. Decaf tea might be fine.

MeTekillot · « **Reply #29415 on:** November 23, 2021, 02:16:59 PM »

Soda water and lime/lemon juice. If you want to be a fancy boy, buy them and fresh squeeze. Just go easy at first so you don't overwhelm your palate.

I personally drink a lot of spiced green tea and black tea.

I spice with coriander, cardamom, and sometimes cinnamon and nutmeg. If I'm feeling frisky, a drop of peppermint oil.

Caffeine is also an antioxidant.

My wife uses mason jars to do infused waters. Cucumber, lemon, lime, strawberry, all sorts. I really like the citrus flavors but she gets pissed if I steal them.

Easy prep, store overnight, yummy and healthy.

Was helping get Christmas decorations out of the shed

I knew there was a step. The problem was the root on the ground.

Twisted my ankle bad.

Currently can't put weight on it.

May have fractured it

Lmao

Other idle complaint: Started doing keto. I work with my dad and we usually pick up food from a gas station on the way home on Thursdays (We stay out of state M-T) instead of eating somewhere with real food. Downsides: There basically isn't shit for me to eat at a gas station unless I feel like eating jerky. At least at restaurants I can order meat or something.

Well, I tried to update the guild picker to reflect the new subguilds, but I cannot even upload or deploy the changes. Git is as dead as a doornail right now:

This is why Microsoft shouldn't be allowed to own anything. This is why people hate tech monopolies (but please spare my company it is a good monopoly).

I'll keep checking the status of Github over the weekend and update this when able.

The two party system in America is fucking stupid and needs to be abolished.

If you are an American who doesn't agree with the above, hear me out and see the light:

Imagine you believe in the most core tenant of American values. FREEDOM. For this thought experiment imagine you own a uterus if you don't already.

The Democratic party won't grant you freedom because they tax and mandate you to death.

The Republicans won't tax and mandate you to death, UNLESS you own a uterus in which case fuck your freedom.

Therefore there is NO PARTY in America that represents your interests if you are a woman who wants to be free in this country.

Thanks for coming to my TED talk. Fuck America and the "no one can be free" party and the "only white cismen can be free" party.
