  • Oh no… I’m that weirdo that likes the Papermate mechanicals.
    They are just so simple and reliable. You could crush one and still get it to write again if you needed too and it had the eraser (that sucked) built right in that you never used but felt good looking at it and squeezing against your thumbnail when you were bored. Just had to put better quality lead in it.

    But man Zebra makes the pens and pencil I would actually intend to use if I was planning it.




  • To be frank,

    Constructive criticism has not been well received by anyone lately as apparently everyone just sees it as flat criticism and with the rise of internet echo chambers for every group, criticism in any form immediately points you as an other to be ignored.
    People of all walks only want to hear what is convenient and self confirming.

    And also, people are not ubermensch and do not just have a working plan that perfectly replaces this one the same way this one is ineffective. It will take conversation and community to figure out what works. No one can plan or act alone.








  • To him being an incel, he never married or dated publicly. Complained about women and considered them lesser. Used the sexual acts of others to blackmail others while living with another man that was his co-director of the FBI. His mother called him weak and lived with Hoover her whole life. Argued women were sluts and anyone that made comment on his sexuality was usually attacked viciously.

    Also
    He thought it was cute that people were naming their homeless encampments after him.

    He thought the FBI was wasted on mafia and killers and should focus on communists and blacks as the country should be a white Christian nationalist state.

    He, apparently was so good at stealing and wiretapping that he had blackmail on pretty much everyone down to Nixon.

    American protests are the dumbest shit.

    A bunch of people thinking they have done something productive because they held up a sign until their arms got tired after an hour and joined a mailing list that they might toss $5 to.
    It’d be more productive to host a block party where at least everyone gets fed.

    There was one in Orlando recently where they (80 people) just protested nothing and everything all at once and then they just packed up talking about how good that was.
    At best it was just an excuse to go to the park.

    People are comfortable even when they stress that they aren’t and don’t want to do anything more than tell people to stop being meanies like it does something. And are scared of what happens when we actually push back against bullies cause we haven’t for decades.
