Or the crisis line.
What happens is that they “triage” you, where depending on how you answer their script you get cops at your door and a trip to hell on earth, or you are on hold for 20 minutes to speak with someone who also is reading a script and doesn’t give a rats ass about you.
Maybe states that aren’t Oklahoma have mental hospitals which are preferable to drinking yourself to sleep, but who knows.

10·2 days agoI used to travel a lot in eastern Oklahoma, and left a lot of stickers at gas stations in the middle of bumble fuck nowhere towns. Probably less smiles and more anger honestly, but fuck them. Also did some on a trip to Missouri, where I’m pretty sure it was illegal for me to piss.

The Giant’s Drink from Ender’s Game always seemed really compelling to me. The emergent gameplay reacted to your state of mind and serving as some sort of arcane test of your mind.
It’s not helping that I just got this ad

They both have a close amount of syllables. A friend gifted me some extraordinary grass and the multiple counts I have made have failed on their account, but both the English and the mandarin have around 18 syllables [CI: 17-19, p<0.05]
“Jive” is an older term for what you might call less offensively call Ebonics or AAVE. Popular in the 80’s, I remember my mom talking about having a computer program that would “translate” things into jive (while also talking about doing black face for Halloween….)
“Jigaboo” is a slur for a black person.
The way the alt right has been working for the past ten years has been saying something absolutely outrageous, and then claiming it’s a joke/satire afterwords. It’s a way of introducing those ideas into the mainstream while maintaining plausible deniability. They started by “joking” that we should repeal the 19th amendment, but the goal is to shift the Overton window. Any “satire” is a fig leaf.
The dude does not believe in relationships with women. He believes in fucking women (with or without their consent) and pimping them out. Having a girlfriend is acknowledging a woman as human, which is “gay,” because real men only view women as chattel. That’s what he’s saying. I’m sorry you don’t have the critical thinking skills to understand that.
It isn’t satire. This is really who Andrew Tate is. If you haven’t heard of him, this Shaun video is good.
No, he just is that fucked up of a person.
Andrew Tate coerced multiple women into camming for him in a set up where he’d keep all of the money. He’s also a rapist.
The idea of respecting a woman as a human being whose consent matters is about as alien to him as the idea that a blender or oven’s consent matters. He’s a rapist and human trafficker, but because we live in hell world, rapists and human traffickers are considered the pinnacle of human achievement by a rather significantly sized crowd.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How do people with epilepsy triggered by flashing lights, drive past trees that are backlit by the sun?
4·9 days agoWhen I had them, they were very sudden. I didn’t have auras or anything.
It was very odd. The first one I had I didn’t realize was a seizure - I was out working on a farm and woke up very confused and missing my glasses. It wasn’t until I had one in front of my ex husband, and woke up fighting firefighters, that I figured out what was going on.
So yeah, wouldn’t have warnings if I was driving. I’d honestly be happy to never drive again if I didn’t live in a place where that was impossible - I haven’t had one in years and think I figured out why I was having them, but it is scary knowing that there is some trigger that could hit me out of nowhere.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How do people with epilepsy triggered by flashing lights, drive past trees that are backlit by the sun?
6·9 days agoYou are incorrect when it comes to the United Stares. There is a varying period of time you have to go without seizures, but you are not permanently barred from driving.
When I had seizures several years ago, I was told to wait for six months by the doctor. They didn’t report anything to any regulatory authority, it really just worked on the honor system. My seizures were controlled, and I drive regularly now.

20·9 days agoIt’s state by state. Some states don’t make physicians report, so there’s not necessarily enforcement. I waited the six months my state requires after my seizures, but there wasn’t really any mechanism by which a cop would have known if I hadn’t.

7·10 days agoI really need things to be habeñero level at least. Sometimes I’ve gotten a grinder of dried ghost chiles to get things up to snuff.
Nope, “Jehovah” is a latinization. “Yahweh”/“YHWH” is a more accurate rendering.

I’m honestly better. I’ve worked on a game plan to get the fuck out of this state.
I just want to raise awareness of how absolutely shit mental healthcare is in southern states. We absolutely need a federal investigation into how behavioral health care crises are treated. Oklahoma City cops and jail guards have probably killed at least a dozen people this year, and there are no eyes on what’s happening.
