Last Notes npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow FELLOW GEEKS! An awesome comrade came through for me when I requested mutual aid for a laptop. One question: I'm swapping out the hard drive for a new one, and I'm wondering if I *have* to use a DVD-ROM to install Windows 7 or if a Rufus-USB will work to install the OS. (The laptop is old and was made to run 7) https://kolektiva.social/system/media_attachments/files/112/230/546/475/707/973/original/1373f5a1107a836c.png npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow My full list of fictional cops who are not ACAB: Mulder and Scully Sherlock Holmes (especially the Jonny Lee Miller one) The entire Reddington task force (The Blacklist) Lucifer SVU cops Jane Doe tattoo taskforce (Blindspot) Liv Moore and Clive Babineaux (iZombie) Dale Cooper (Twin Peaks) That's as far as I can get (Even though he is DEFINITELY ACAB, there's a special place in my heart for Jack Bauer) npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow https://kolektiva.social/system/media_attachments/files/112/165/241/337/075/201/original/99644dbe97a624ae.jpg npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow Transphobe: “I just want to exist without having some agenda shoved down my throat!” Trans Person: “Same!” Transphobe: “THEY’RE DOING IT AGAIN!!!” *hisses and throws shoes* npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow @npub1c4s…aqv4 Should we tell them?

He's as sharp as ever. But they're pushing two people who are *literally* senile. npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow @npub1gmx…atcq I wound up having to go on a grippy sock vacation over it and had to talk to the FBI. A little background - before I got leveled out on lithium, the cops in my town came to do wellness checks on me a lot. San Marcos is one of the very few towns where they have a completely separate mental health task force. These people have to have degrees to be on it. So when Andy Gno, or his bitch pal Libby Emmons called the FBI and told them I was going to do a mass shooting, instead of SWAT being called in, the cops showed up and my house and said "So get this, Randy. The FBI got a call that is ridiculous but we just need to make sure..." I told them about Gno doxxing me and writing a shitty and embarrassing article about me and they said "Yeah we figured it was bullshit." So luckily that blew over. The death threats from all over the country, in my own town, though, did not blow over so quickly. And it nearly ended me. So I've been infiltrating white supremacist message boards - pretending to be one of them - and shaming them for allowing a gay Asian man to be a spokesperson for the Proud Aryan Nation and how embarrassing it is. I chose the final tactic because I reached out to a few people Gno had done this to and told them that when he published articles calling you a "violent extremist" when you've never - even once in your life - been convicted of a violent crime, then that's the very definition of slander and libel and all of us have reason to file a class action lawsuit. None of them wanted to do it. So much for left solidarity. So I've decided to just try to have Gno murdered by his own ridiculous followers. A few are ready to do it. So one day, when a Proud Boy or Patriot Prayer member shoots Andy Gno in the head, you can thank me npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow @npub1gmx…atcq I actually ran for mayor in my town and Andy Gno used that as a stepping stone to doxx me and try to have me killed for making fun of him online npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow @npub1gmx…atcq I'm just going to vote for the guy half the USA population votes for every year npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow Thoughts and Prayers for Toby Keith's family https://kolektiva.social/system/media_attachments/files/111/886/135/307/275/001/original/1a3a085c848f059f.jpg npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow @npub1gmx…atcq was that "watching a football game with George W.

I was researching a book about the epidemic of mental illness in America, and how all the things accept as "normal" (organized religion, child abuse, capitalism, etc) are making us all collectively ill. A girl who proofreads academic articles for a living said it was the most well-researched book she has ever read. But yeah, I wrote it in a style that was entertaining, funny, and shocking. Basically, I read all the boring shit, so the reader doesn't have to. (The book isn't available right now, it's being edited for a third edition.) Skip to 7 years later: Marxist-Leninists: "READ THEORY! YOU MUST READ MARX!!" Fuck. No. A million times fuck no. npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow History has proven there is only one way to rid the world of Nazis.

My retirement plan is a prison in Norway. Seriously, they're nicer than most apartments in the USA npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow @npub1k7q…3lrw Yeah I know all about Project 2025.

His crime bill alone meets all the criteria of the Geneva Convention's definition of genocide. I guess you have to be as old as I am to have actually lived through the devastation and wreckage of Biden's time in office npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow @npub1k7q…3lrw Add #GenocideJoe to that list. At this point he's proven to be just as awful as Trump. npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow Maybe this is a hot take, but if you are at a "Left Wing" (communist or anarchist) group, and people there are defending Joe Biden, Israel, being genocide apologists, and saying "Vote Blue No Matter Who" even though all the Senate Democrats all voted to help escalate an ethnic cleansing and war crime that would have made Henry Kissinger proud, maybe you're not at a left wing page. All of that stuff is literally hate speech and if I were admin/moderator of a left wing group, I wouldn't tolerate it. npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow Trans folks - or @npub1gmx…atcq - is there a link between feelings/fantasies of transness and ADHD? Thanks to the tireless work of Gabor Mate, I know there is a definite link between adult ADHD and substance abuse. Which is my next question: are trans folks more likely to have unhealthy coping mechanisms, such as problems with drugs or alcohol. Or an unhealthy/overactive relationship with porn? Asking for a friend, (of course) who also happens to be naggingly persistent when it comes to their overwhelming fantasies of transness when combined with porn and street stimulants, which goes back to early childhood when my friend was on Ritalin and constantly scolded when they were caught dressing up in their sister's clothes. (stays at mental hospitals were also frequent, but that was for a myriad of behaviors.) Any advice you could give my "friend" would be appreciated, although this friend knows they would never feel comfortable actually transitioning because they do not feel their assigned sex/gender at birth was incorrect, they just wish they could switch back and forth like the character Raven/Mystique in the X-Men franchise into a completely different body because while they are confident they are quite attractive as a male, they know they would make a pretty fugly girl and that is simply unacceptable to them. npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow Throwing a brick through a Starbucks window is a political act. Forming a union is a political act. Burning down a police station is a political act. Feeding the homeless is a political act. Setting up a needle exchange/harm reduction center is a political act. Punching Nazis in the face is a political act.

But I am also very seriously anticop, and after ALL the protests for George Floyd in 2020, that Dixecrat who had pals in the KKK and who WROTE a bill that SPECIFICALLY TARGETS BLACK PEOPLE which has led to the MASS MURDER of people by the pigs since 1994 . . . after all those protests against police brutality GAVE BILLIONS to make the police EVEN MORE DEADLY https://thehill.com/opinion/finance/3857208-if-cutting-social-security-is-a-scandal-then-biden-did-it-first/ npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow @npub150a…7r6l @npub12ne…xj50 @npub1ccn…czwu @npub1j7t…ls96 @npub1t07…nm3q Did you really just hashtag #genocidetrump ?

And as President, telling the entire country how they're getting fucked by the system would be a powerful tool to GET people to organize from the bottom and to hold all the rest of their elected officials accountable. I mean, there is one thing no one can deny: Bernie Sanders radicalized more people in the USA and in a very short period of time than any other person alive today. Karl fucking Marx can't hold a candle to what Bernie achieved in this country. I won't withhold my vote if Biden steps down, but I'm not holding my breath on that one. I know one thing: (1) After the horrific war crimes Biden has committed this month, he's going to lose, and he's going to lose BADLY. (2) Every fucking election, HALF the people in this country don't vote because their choices are absolute dogshit. Maybe stop blaming those of us who don't vote because our choices suck, and demand your fucking party produce candidates we don't all fucking hate? npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow @npub1vkc…0wyj Biden better step the fuck down before the election season because I guarantee you Trump will rant nonstop about the Gazan genocide and honestly it will work. Biden fucked up with this one. I wasn't going to vote for him anyway, but this is one thing no one can lay at Trump's feet. If the party doesn't make Biden step down, then they don't WANT to win. npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow @npub1ugl…yvd7 But something I learned from Grant Morrison is that you can channel energy from literally any source and turn anything into a spirit to call on. So I put a lot of energy into creating a spiritform of Luka, The Raccoon God of Luck from the hilarious A. Lee Martinez novel "Divine Misfortune." I even made a physical representation, and I cannot for the life of me remember what those are called, but they are supposed to house the God's spirit: https://kolektiva.social/system/media_attachments/files/111/309/817/904/904/310/original/701e06fda4c69604.jpg npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow @npub1ugl…yvd7 I used to be really dedicated to the practice of magick, but the world kept getting shittier and shittier and I realized that I was just practicing wishful thinking. That, and I can't still my mind at all and in fact trying to meditate makes me have full-blown panic attacks. npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow @npub1ccn…czwu @npub1t07…nm3q I don't have to do anything. It's on them to EARN my vote. And yes, it IS a matter of what have you done for me lately. That is why in every election, the largest voting bloc is "none of the above" Roughly half of America votes for either party in the elections. That means roughly 25 percent for Dems, 25 percent for the GOP, and 50 percent don't vote at all. Why? Because their government has never helped them and WILL never help them, and they know it. It's why I wish Bernie would just run as an independent. Because people KNOW he wants to help them, and there is a chance he could get those non-voters out on election day. But until I see the politicians themselves pushing for what I believe in, I'm not supporting any of them. npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow @npub1t07…nm3q The problem is that the Democrats aren't giving us a reason to vote FOR them. And they consistently enable these fascists. If the Democrats listened to people like Bernie Sanders and the left, and passed progressive legislation that actually helps people: universal health care, making college free and forgiving student debt, enacting rent control across the nation that slashed rents by 3/4ths, raised the minimum wage to 30 bucks an hour, built a high speed rail system that criss-crosses the nation, etc, the Republicans would never win another election. Instead, they do shit like THIS: https://kolektiva.social/system/media_attachments/files/111/291/354/918/483/667/original/35b76136efe8ff1b.webp npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow @npub1vkc…0wyj I actually have the Kropotkin books, but I have brain damage from a pretty bad meth problem I sadly still struggle with. I spent two years researching a writing a book about the mental health system. I had to read so many books and article and studies to write that book it was incredible. And now I can't read past 4 or 5 paragraphs. And I DEFINITELY can't read anything on a screen. I gave myself brain damage with that shit. I don't know if I can get my reading skills back npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow @npub1vkc…0wyj LOL. I don't know much about all of that because tankies smugly telling me I can't be a "real leftist" if I don't "read theory" and that talking about how my ACTUAL SUFFERING was what radicalized me was "counter-revolutionary" and that unless I READ ALL THREE VOLUMES OF DAS KAPITAL then I WILL NEVER KNOW CLASS STRUGGLE made me kind of NOT want to know anything about the October Revolution or read a single word written by any of those commies. But I'm also not a complete dolt and I did read up on some of it and from little I read, Trotsky would have been on the side of the workers, as opposed to Stalin, if he had come out on top. I have his pamphlet "What is Fascism (And What to Do About it)" But it's dated and not very relevant to today's world npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow @npub1vkc…0wyj "Hot2Trotsky?" npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow Holy shit this is funny https://boingboing.net/2023/08/17/american-evangelicals-are-getting-mad-at-jesus-for-being-too-woke.html npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow @npub1g0t…tvm4 @npub1kt3…5004 Have you read what is called the very first "cyberpunk" novel which inspired William Gibson to write "Neuromancer?" In it, in the near future, a group based on Blackwater - the private military contracting firm - also becomes a very huge megachurch religion and uses it's money and weaponry to start the holocaust back up and they start murdering anyone not white, straight, or Christian. While this is going on there is a rebellion happening on a space station while a group of cyberpunk rebels are using technology, spycraft, brain chemistry enhancing smart drugs, and ultimately, violence to bring this new Christofascist threat to an end. It is a truly great novel. It is called "A Song Called Youth" and the writer, John Shirley, is a Vote Blue no Matter Who Democrat who believes drug dealers should get the death penalty while telling people we should debate Nazis instead of punching them, criticizes the left for not getting anything done while telling people to vote for Status Quo fascist enablers like Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden, and since I am no longer speaking to that douchebag and have him blocked, I had to have other people tell me he has been repeating JK Rowling transphobic speaking points. In other words, the protagonists in the book John Shirley wrote would fucking hate John Shirley. npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow @npub1vkc…0wyj I think it's the fact that they chose a piece of land where they are surrounded on all sides by people who hate them because of some woo woo religious bullshit when upstate New York or Colorado or parts of Canada would have made a much nicer Jewish homeland npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow @npub1j7g…g0x3 "This model has no other known / current online presence)" That's not exactly true: she does hardcore porn, too under the name "Sabien Demonia" npub1aqjlremq5jyy50gfy058kk6khele83aahcvxez90nfruwm3m6n3svly97v Randy Dethrow @npub1j7g…g0x3 Ever since I wound up in poverty that made it unaffordable to continue my SG subscription I've been missing it a lot, not just cuz of the pics but because I actually had followers and friends on there.
