Hopefully car insurance covers something like this. Bad enough you survive this, but then have to worry about replacing your vehicle in this shitty time period.

Ya, sucks for those people that they survived this tragic accident, better luck next time folks.

They litter the checkout lanes of every supermarket around me and I just don't get why. We know they're catering to boomers and frankly I don't see many of them buying them period but they still constantly get restocked. What is it about them that gets them distributed literally everywhere when the rest of the print magazine industry has been dying a slow death for decades?

To be specific I mean just the celeb gossip mags, magazines that cover the British royals, magazines that offer BS health lifehacks for boomers, and "red top" tabloids that print straight up lies on the regular.

Because some are entertaining such as Batboy.

My impression is that a lot of old leftist circles are still sympathetic with China and Russia to an extent.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/former-wa-state-trooper-robert-lamay-who-made-quite-a-scene-quitting-due-to-vaccine-mandates-has-passed-due-to-covid.545636/

I'm no fan of anti-vaxxers.

But seeing REE dance on this guys grave definitely doesn't sit well with me. So this guy quit his state trooper job over a vaccine mandate, and told the Governor to kiss his ass. Edgy, whatever. This was last October.

Now, the guy has died, and it's reportedly from COVID. Okay. Play stupid games blah blah blah.

But -- I can't find any actual proof the guy died from COVID. The BNO story that REE is REE'ing over simply says:

Quote
His Facebook page was deleted earlier this month when he reportedly fell ill with COVID-19 and was put on a ventilator.

LaMay’s condition continued to deteriorate and he died on Friday, journalist Naveed Jamali said.

So I search up this journalist and all I can find is tweets. His tweet about it says:

Quote
@wastatepatrol trooper who told Inslee “to kiss his ass” over vax mandate, and was fired, is reportedly on a ventilator bc of COVID.

And the only other thing I can find is this: https://www.sorryantivaxxer.com/post/robert-lamay-50-naches-wa-ex-state-trooper-anti-vaxxer-dead-from-covid

Quote
According to an insider tip to SAV, Robert is in the hospital on a CPAP with COVID.

Well, guess what? I've gotten some information from someone who has a connection to Robert who says he's been hospitalized with COVID and is in serious condition. This person expressly said they must remain anonymous. Obviously, most of Robert's circle wants to keep this out of the media. Edit: Robert's facebook page has been deleted, which is another clue that this is true. Edit2: We just got more corroborating evidence that he is indeed in the Hospital with COVID.

And now we get some information that Robert has COVID and is in the hospital. That checks out with his posting habits, as he's posted rather regularly since being fired and he hasn't posted on his facebook since January 9, 2022.

Get better Robert. Repent and get your job back. You're going to need it to pay your bills.
----------UPDATE---------
 
UPDATE (1/28/22): It's official. Robert is dead from COVID:



And then posts the original Washington State Patrol bulletin simply saying he died.

So... no Facebook screenshots. Nothing concrete whatsoever. Just a bunch of "reportedly" and him deleting his Facebook = proof he has COVID and when he dies, well of course he could have only died from the COVID that he has because he deleted his Facebook.

But seeing REE dance on this guys grave definitely doesn't sit well with me.

And, as always, from their own guidelines:

Quote from: Cerium (Still Napping)
Obituary Threads

We generally do not welcome celebration or cheering the death of public figures. Members that appear to be using an obituary thread solely to post about how glad they are that person is dead may be moderated. This does not preclude sober criticism of a person's legacy or mistakes in life. We simply do not want to celebrate death. Context will matter, and some individuals have done things so heinous that rare exceptions may need to be made.

13 minutes after that thread was posted, this exchange happens in Constructive (spawned off someone trying to figure out if they're allowed to post NFT shit in the cringe thread):

Quote from: B-Dubs
Look, I appreciate that you have complicated feelings and whatnot, but we're not doing a "Let's make fun of random people on twitter" thread for any reason.
To this point, we routinely have threads about the hilarious ways in which random antivax online cowboys die painfully with fluid in their lungs. Maybe the reason folks are confused about the NFT rules is the otherwise permissive atmosphere for sadistic shitposting.
Quote from: B-Dubs
I don't know if you've noticed, but if the person isn't a public figure we've been actively locking those threads for that very reason.

I guess "went viral for being antivaxx" is enough to make you a public figure and deserve the grave-dancing.

Like I'm not saying there are zero radicals in the upper middle class, but most of them aren't, and most of the radicals don't come from that strata of society, pretty much ever.

That is a big ass lie.
No he is totally right, radical movements and revolutions don't start in tennis courts, the supply chain, beer halls, stock markets or pubs.










It has literally never ever happened that the upper middle class supported such movements.

Being fair, that manga was directed to adult women rather than being MoeCancer directed to fat otakus.

why the author thinks that child grooming is romantic or cute to thirty year old women is anyone guess

Plot

When 30-year-old Daikichi Kawachi returns home for his grandfather's funeral he learns about the existence of Rin Kaga, his grandfather's illegitimate six-year-old daughter by an unknown mother. The girl is an embarrassment to all his relatives and is treated like an outcast.

Annoyed by their attitudes, Daikichi decides to take care of Rin himself, even though he is single and has no experience in raising a child. As Rin becomes part of his life, Daikichi experiences the hardships of being a single parent. He is befriended by the single mother of Kouki Nitani, a young boy that Rin meets in nursery school, who gives him advice on raising Rin. After a year has passed, Daikichi acknowledges his sacrifices for Rin have been worth it. The first half of the series focuses on Daikichi's perspective and struggles raising Rin.

Ten years later, Rin is a high school student and the remainder of the series focuses on her trying to figure out how to deal with her feelings for Kouki, and her decision for a career.

OK, doesn't seem so bad.  What's the probl--

Rin discovers that she is not actually related to Daikichi by blood, and the series ends with Rin wanting to have a child with Daikichi.

Motherfucker flew to El Salvador because of bitcoin

Quote
I flew to El Salvador’s Bitcoin Beach for 4 days… here’s what I learned… (self.Bitcoin)

I went to El Salvador with no expectations. When I first landed it felt hot, lovely. Had to wait for a friend so I grabbed the rental car, where they try and scam you for insurance, and went for a coffee. Friend arrived and we drove to El Zonte a.k.a Bitcoin Beach.

The drive we thought we were going to be shot, not sure why but you hear stories. We didn’t get shot. Checked in the Airbnb no probs, no hot water though.

Next day we drive to the beach for coffee and bump straight into Max Keiser and Stacy Herbert, said hi, Stacy was nice but Max was not interested, I probably wouldn’t be to be fair, especially when I’m after a coffee.

Bitcoin signs everywhere, talked to a bunch of people and some knew about bitcoin but mostly not, felt like just a lot of travellers there passing through. I think all the stuff you see online you assume everyone is walking around with Chivo wallets but it doesn’t seem to be the case, maybe other places it’s like that but not here.

We contacted some estate/realtor agents and saw two properties just to see what’s available, this place literally has nothing, when I say nothing I mean you’ll need to put water in, electricity, it’s so behind the times that most people here live in tin shacks by the road/river. It seems that there’s chancers there trying their luck to get bitcoiners to buy shacks but there really isn’t any point… the reality is you can’t either, not straight forward anyway as you’ll need a lawyer and even if you buy something you’re not 100% sure you own it, it’s confusing, plus the government has some rule where they can take property off people.

My thoughts are this won’t be the future of Bitcoin, it’s so behind the times. The people were lovely, beautiful scenery, great weather but realistically this place will take 20 years to develop and in the next couple of years there will most likely be other countries adopting Bitcoin, countries which are already developed.

El Salvador is definitely cool and will probably the Mecca/pilgrimage place for the future of where it all started to be accepted but I can’t see it being anything but that. I actually hope I’m wrong because it was first and deserves so much more but after visiting and seeing how undeveloped it is I’d be very surprised if people actually go there.

If anyone has been to San Salvador and people are daily using their Chivo wallets then please comment, I hope there is more use of it as I read millions of people have them but whether they’re active accounts would be interesting to know.

The last thing I want to say is this trip has made me realise how truly early we are still… one place is using Bitcoin and it’s underdeveloped. I can’t imagine what Bitcoin will be like when everyone is using it… it blows my mind! It’s so early.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/sdnq0e/i_flew_to_el_salvadors_bitcoin_beach_for_4_days/

 :dead :dead :dead
I know this pages back, but I only read this thread when I’m bored out of my mind waiting somewhere. That said, my wife is from El Salvador and we stayed in El Zonte (bitcoin beach) for 4 days last May when they were first trying to make it a thing. There were signs everywhere, but the people didn’t give a shit. We asked them about it and they all kinda shrugged like whatever. As much as idiots want to call it the revolution for the people down there, it’s clearly an alternate opportunity for rich foreigners to try to make money off of the local population or use bitcoin to monopolize the market there in a different way. The only people who care are Bukyele sycophants who can’t afford any amount of bitcoin anyways. The more I hear from him the more I roll my eyes. My father in law buys into his bullshit 100% as does much of the rest of my wife’s family and it’s kinda sad. I hope he’s not all talk, but going there and seeing the “progress” is disheartening. They just love when he gets a zinger in and sticks out his chest. Not at all dissimilar from Trump supporters here. Sad!

Oh I’m supposed to shitpost in this thread. Fuck.

I'm no fan of anti-vaxxers.

But seeing REE dance on this guys grave definitely doesn't sit well with me.

And, as always, from their own guidelines:

Quote from: Cerium (Still Napping)
Obituary Threads

We generally do not welcome celebration or cheering the death of public figures. Members that appear to be using an obituary thread solely to post about how glad they are that person is dead may be moderated. This does not preclude sober criticism of a person's legacy or mistakes in life. We simply do not want to celebrate death. Context will matter, and some individuals have done things so heinous that rare exceptions may need to be made.


Remeber, rejoicing and hoping and saying someone should die isn't the same and wishing them dead and celebrating death.

The shill energy it's strong with this post. You're not going top find many people who are concerned with your opinion when your criticism of his bitcoin commentary is it makes buying drugs and gambling easier.
As I've said before, if I wanted to shill crypto, I'd do it on far better platforms than a shrinking forum community full of aging video gamers. And it's lolworthy you think that I'm powerful enough to "shill" Bitcoin or Ethereum directly. You want to see a Bitcoin shill, check out Cathy Woods.

I'm just here to provide my opinion.
