The thread to release that thing you need to say

+1. At least Japan has very good disaster preparedness in place, unlike the U.S. and the bumbling FEMA! :emoji_pray:

Here in Spain, we also have disasters ... But they are not natural they are political.

Ouch!!! "In the human relationship of the net, I realize my helplessness that I can not do anything from time to time.pray and cheer." I'm praying and cheering for Japan :emoji_fingers_crossed: much

Thank you, @BryanB ! I appreciate your encouragement. First of all I aim for physical strength to overcome strong winds of typhoons, I'd like to start jogging!

Preparations may be in place, but cases that are not being used well are conspicuous!:emoji_fingers_crossed:

In Japan, natural disasters and artificial disasters are linked!

Fascism takes overt forms in some places. American fascism assumes a subtle form, controlling people not with guns (usually) but by elites who control and influence minds through misinformation, consumerism, celebrity culture, poverty, inequality, etc.. It is a much more insidious form of fascism that reserves to itself the power to silence others by any means necessary. It prefers to exercise control by subtle means but never hesitates to use the gun when necessary. Today that white power structure has defended and fortified itself. It has re-armed itself. It is a sad day in America for those that see and who are silenced!:emoji_pray: But it is inspiring others to action! :barefoot::barefoot::barefoot:!

Edit:
Not-so-fun fact: U.S. #1 in the world in per capita prison population, 21.6% of them un-sentenced. The vast majority of them are from racial minorities. This is another weapon of American Fascism!

The best defense is the prelude to the strongest attack. The strongest attack is the best defense fanfare.

I should have pushed 'like' to all posts on this thread, but they seem to be in a reset state. It's not a pain to push again, but I hesitate to occupy the three-line notice at the forum entrance...

In our country natural disasters are ways to make money for some people. If 100 bucks are to be spent then on 10- 20 bucks actually reach the needy and the rest goes into the pockets of some people.


There has always been big arguments regarding which type of economy is better Capitalistic or Socialistic (Communist). As like every other thing both these have their pros and cons, but what matters the most is the people who are at the top. Even in the time of Monarchy if the King or the Emperor was good then the people led a good life. The same applies now also, be it Communist or Capitalist if the leader is good then the people can live happily.

I don't understand why we're shutting down nuclear power plants before we shut down coal power plants. It makes no damn sense especially now that we have the technology to make them fail-safe.

There may or may not be a product with the name abbreviation of "VS" which I think suxx.

The product I am thinking of here isn't Visual Studio.

Visiting my best friend on the cemetery yesterday was one of the hardest things I had to do lately but it released a lot from me. I feel good.

I really really despise every mainstream OS available right now.
Windows can't get the most basic BASIC things right.
macOS is pure decadence and a waste of screen real estate and hardware.
Linux is diverse but the problems I'm facing with drivers, secure boot, uefi are universal and none of the backup solutions on Linux are remotely reliable.
I hate everything Google so Chrome and Android are a necessary evil for me but I would rather do without.
Then there's Intel ME's Minix hiding in my CPU doing whatever Intel wants. I just hate all major operating systems right now. Never has the landscape been so hostile for consumers in favor of ridiculous UI/UX philosophies. These companies do whatever they want and know we have no other choice than to upgrade or run into malware. I'm extremely tired of it.

You know what grind my gears?
When in a forum (not just MT but all, also chats) someone write their name below the comment. WHY? I can already see your name on the top, why you are making me read it again. Ahhhhhhhh.

I needed this, thanks for this thread @RoboMan

Now if this could be put on billboards all over the country, then again, how many would believe it or even get it. This needed to be said @oldschool , thank you

That's why I said "do not explain anything, do not explain the context, or who it's directed to". This will help us release it all without people asking or being obvious. Try it, it's good for your heart

It's not funny anymore !!! For 4 months now you've been hanging around, robbing me and i (expletive) want you to go away now, leave me alone, pee off, bolt ya rocket, how many other ways can i say it before you get the message. You are :notworthy: of me.
