A really long rant because of a dog

Somebody’s dog was barking and barking.

I don’t like it.

That dog was doing its job, and its family was not doing theirs. The tone of that dog’s voice was "Danger!"

Please don’t leave dogs outside overnight. Not unless they have a protective shelter of their own.

These are bad times. Stupid people are going to do desperate things. Things that could cost you your life.

I hate it so much. I wish things could just settle down and go into Peaceful Happy World-mode rather than the current, high-stress, Pre-Apocalypse setting.

For reals: I wish people would just calm the fuck down.

We get it. Your "god" has sent you secret coded messages carried by way of an obvious grifter televangelist-school-of-thought motherfucker. We get it.

If you want to believe in God, believe in God! But stop going out there worshipping at the feet of little fucking "gods," i.e. the false prophets taking over your churches.

You know you don’t have to accept the first preacher they send you, right?

For reals: There are some people in positions of religious or political authority that should not be there. Sometimes they don’t have the temperament for it. And sometimes they’re awful people that should not be in a position of power over anybody.

And you, the chuch-goer, has the ability to choose who is going to preach to you. And it is your responsibility to choose someone that will help you be a better person for God.

At the very least, you want someone that has actually read the Bible and believes in it. Not someone that just uses random Bible verses to browbeat people and grift. Like, you can hire whatever spiritual adviser you would like. But don’t try to wrap your weirdness in the sheepskin of Christianity.

You worship an Internet influencer. Someone that bows down to a "reality TV"-gameshow host. Like, you let that dude tell you who to vote for. You really need to reflect on yourself and what you’re doing here.

You could be doing so much better as a person.

And like, the bulk of the people taking on this madness are what I would consider rich.

They are well-off enough that even if they had to declare bankruptcy, they would still be able to live comfortable lives.

As someone that’s staring down the barrel of a bleak old age… You people have too much money to be acting this irresponsibly. And stupid.

If this is generational wealth, there’s some grandparents that need to step in and tell the parents to hold off on their children’s allowances. That hey, all this recklessness is damaging the brand.

Like, what the fuck dude? What are you doing? This is NOT a good way to be doing business.

You are going to end up killing your whole family and the families of all of your employees.

And I know a lot of rich fucks don’t want to focus on ideas such as fidelity, morals, ethics, and fairness. And I think a big part of that is the way they treat "socialism" as though it’s a deadly virus.

Like, they would rather go out maskless into the midst of a life-ruining pandemic than to read a book, watch a movie, accept a concept that includes the ideas I really wish rich people would soak into their brains:

• Medical For All is a good thing because nobody should go into life ruining debt because of medical expenses. Rich pharmaceutical companies and companies that make life bettering devices would still be rich because the tax money gathered from rich people could pay for free medical for everyone, and then those stocks will be worth more money and the rich people would earn back the amount they paid in taxes. And with medical for all, people will be in all around better health, which results in less people needing seriously expensive services. Their medical issues would be solved at their start rather than festering.
• Treating employees well, and as HUMAN BEINGS rather than as "employees"-derogatory, results in happier people. It means you aren’t going to be badmouthed on the street. Those employees aren’t going to go home in a bad mood and create a ripple of discontent that results in you and your family being dragged out of your homes ala The French Revolution (insert mustache twirl).
• Ensuring school funding results in smarter happier people. People that have something to lose and aren’t willing to burn down your house to cover up their crime of robbery. Or who realize that murdering someone is a much more serious crime then admitting to robbery and possibly just paying a big fine.
• A Universal Basic Income is good for society as a whole. People will still work because humans are in-built with a desire for "MORE!" They’ll want better cars, better clothes, better everything, all those consumer goods that result in fat stock market returns. And they’ll feel freer to buy all those things because they won’t have all the stress of surviving. And as long as the UBI is tax-free money and housing credits, any money they get more than that, is money that’s free to spend. Whether on consumer goods or poured into the stock market, the result is rich people getting richer while not creating bad blood with the 99% of other Not Them people. (Seriously: People would be willing to spend a few hours a week working in a factory packing boxes, and there could be so many people that all the shifts would be covered, yet they’d all be part-time workers, saving the employer money.)

Before all this stupid shit started happening, I never gave a thought to billionaires.

Loud-mouthed New Money is blowing up your spot, Old Money! Your grandkids are fucking it all up!

I honestly don’t understand how the more intelligent rich people aren’t reining in these sloppy motherfuckers. You don’t have to be behaving in such a way.

You can be massively, unbelievably rich, and not be a turd sandwich.

That rich people are choosing to present themselves this way to normal people. It’s fucking shameful and ridiculous.

They waste massive amounts of money fucking around, and it makes me hate them. It’s like those videos where the people just waste massive amounts of food for views.

Like, you can slop the food around and portray yourself as the messiest cook in existence, but why not make food that’s edible? You can make huge, bulk portions for your video. Then after you get your shots, you can separate the completed food into glass or steel containers and freeze them and eat them later. You could write-off the cost of buying the containers because they’re part of your business, AND they’re reusable and easy to sterilize.

(I was gathering knowledge again. Weird tidbits.

165 degrees Fahrenheit to kill salmonella, 160 to kill e.Coli. Boiling water is 212 degrees. And it takes temperatures of 1100-1850 degrees Fahrenheit to kill prions.

We are letting them screw up food safety while dismantling the CDC and making scientists focus more on their CVs than the plethora of diseases that are currently running rampant. MADNESS. Everywhere.)

It’s neat to find out someone went from their home kitchen with a camera phone to being a millionaire with a studio in their home. It’s respectable. You worked at your chosen job and you made enough money to live well.

But I hate food waste videos. Prank videos. Being an asshole in public for money videos. Desperate for money videos.

And that last… I can’t watch desperate for money videos because I don’t have any money myself, so I see that behavior and it makes me feel bad on the inside. But if someone with some real money saw a person willing to degrade themselves for a little money, maybe you could offer them $50,000 to NOT do those sorts of videos anymore?

Like, those videos start getting a lot of hits when the commentary people come onto the scene. Then the video gets mentioned somewhere and more and more people look at it, clip it, talk about it. But without that viral attention, those people are getting a handful of views, and $5 would really help them a lot. To the point that $50,000 would see them relievedly deleting their previous videos.

I saw a commentary video that included clips of women eating "ridiculous amounts of food" and "disgusting food" for money. Even aside from the obvious feeder fetish content that’s front-and-center, there are a lot of "people doing things they wouldn’t otherwise choose to do and that are objectively horrifying" videos out there.

And I think the problem is, you used to have to deal with an actual person, pay them money, and have them do your fetish shit for you. And now you can get your fetish fulfilled by scrolling through your feed. It’s to the point that some people have fetishes that they don’t even realize they have, because their needs are being met by short Instagram or TikTok videos.

"Why do I keep seeing videos containing [obvious fetish content] on my For You page?"–Because that’s the content you’ve been consuming. You didn’t realize it, but those "funny" videos you’ve been watching and sharing with your friends are fetish content. That you’re blasting on main.

And social media is making people weird. And not in a natural way.

Like, rich people spent TRILLIONS of dollars, a lot of which that came from taxpayers, to do studies and experiments on how to control our minds.

And then they just released that content out into the wild.

And the government didn’t put any protections in place.

And now there are whole accounts pretending to be people that are actually grifter crews or terrible marketing departments of shady brands.

Like, you can just make a commercial and show it. If it features an influencer or celebrity that people like, your product will receive eyes on it.

You don’t have to hide your commercials as being real content. It makes you seem like an asshole brand. And you’re beginning to ruin the careers of the influencers you’re bribing.

Cut it out.

But anyways. A dog was barking with that "Danger! High alert!" bark. That semi-panicked "Somebody get out here and help me!" bark. That call for backup sort of bark.

And I think rich people should provide people with a sensor that will turn on the camera when it hears a dog barking. And if we could program it to ONLY respond to the sound of specific dog voices. Or cat voices. Or whatever your animal of choice’s voice. That would be so useful.

Like how cool would it be if your specific favorite wild bird could make its call and your camera would switch on and start recording at high visual and audio quality? And you’d get an alert so you can look and like move the camera around and adjust the settings?

I was so ready for an awesome future, but a bunch of aholes had to embrace apocalyptic ideals and make every terrible thing from sci-fi movies happen in real life.

Why?

I don’t even think they know why they’re doing what they’re doing.

They’ll come up with so many separate issues and it’s the most annoying shit ever.

You didn’t have to vaccinate your children. There has never been a law forcing you to vaccinate your children. It’s just that your unvaccinated children should not be allowed in the general public. And when they do go out, they should be wearing masks and practicing higher sanitary standards that are safe for everyone. (DO NOT spray anything in a public place. Do not use chemicals or smear stuff everywhere. Nobody wants to ruin their clothes or die from anaphylaxis because you felt like being an inconsiderate asshole on the bus. Use real hand sanitizer that’s unscented and change your clothes when you get home.) They can lay down a cushion to sit if allowed, and they should not be touching everything around them.

"But that’s against my freedom!"–How? Nobody’s stopping you from going out in public. And that’s why there keeps being outbreaks of diseases we thought were finally cured and gone forever. Like, if you’re a staunch antivaxxer, you don’t want to hear my opinions about what shots people SHOULD DEFINITELY give to their children, and that you’re a child abuser if you don’t get them.

"Feel free to kill your children, people. But stop rubbing it in my face. It’s disgusting and disturbing and I really really hate it." That’s how I feel.

"But that’s so mean!"–Yeah. But I’m tired and you guys don’t listen. You guys have created enough havoc that I have my own problems to deal with and your children don’t interest me. I’ll mourn them when I hear about them amidst the mass messaging, but I cannot FORCE you to vaccinate your children. I can’t force you not to feed them raw milk or raw eggs or urine. I can’t force you not to unschool them.

But we can force you not to hire other people to abuse them. No. You have to do that shit yourself. Your "conversion therapies" are torture you pay other people to commit on your children, and it’s gross.

People had so many freedoms that are now being taken away. Like, you guys voted for aholes because you want to be free and live your life and do all the things that you want to do! which are basically all the things that you’ve always been legally allowed to do. But those guys you voted for are taking all kinds of things away from you!

You voted in a guy that’s now taking all your shit.

It’s bonkers to me. And I do still have questions about the election results. I don’t trust them.

Like, maybe enough people allowed themselves to be disincentivized to vote… But there were a lot of things that helped them pull off that scheme. Like, they made it SUPER HARD to vote. They threw away a lot of votes, and let a lot of votes be destroyed, and there’s questions about hacking and gerrymandering and all kinds of things that culminated in an election that’s very questionable to me. I honestly believe Harris should have won.

But I’m a single person. A lone voice. And there’s a lot of people that are quick to deny that the election was rigged, therefore there’s no way to call for an investigation. So I have to swallow the poison pill and hope that it doesn’t kill me. I mean, the diarrhea is going to be terrible and maybe I’m going to be left permanently debilitated at the end, but I’ll be somewhat alive, and that’s all that any of us can hope for.

That these next few years aren’t going to kill us. That the global economy will somehow be lifted back up and all the genocides will stop without anybody being genocided.

And oh, when they force people to give birth to babies they’re not ready or willing to have, please make sure to remind EVERYONE that a vitamin K shot is necessary.

A vitamin K shot is one of those things that resulted in someone getting like a Nobel Peace Prize for thinking of it because it’s saved the lives of billions of babies worldwide. And anybody that likens it to the completely different drug they would use for lethal injections in executions can shut the fuck up. "Potassium = K, therefore vitamin K is…" stop yourself. Anything else you say, I’m not going to believe it. You’re wrong.

When a baby is born, it’s not able to produce vitamin K on its own. Therefore, if you accidentally bump that baby too hard, or it wriggles and falls or something happens, that baby could start bleeding internally and DIE. Because it does not have the vitamin K that plays such a crucial role in blood clotting.

A baby without vitamin K does not bruise. It bleeds to death.

When a baby is born, the doctor or the midwife gives the baby a vitamin K shot, and snap! just like that, the likelihood of that baby "mysteriously dying" in its crib goes away.

Because that vitamin K shot gives that baby enough vitamin K to last them until their body starts producing it on their own.

And because of that shot, numerous babies are able to live to see their first birthday. Numerous small tragedies have been averted. Because of one VERY NECESSARY shot.

And also, if someone tells you that folate is poison and you shouldn’t be taking it, especially when you’re pregnant… That person is a Bad Operator. A lack of folate can result with a baby being born without the top of their skull and a lifespan of DAYS. It’s a tragedy in the making. Don’t involve yourself with that person.

There’s a lot of violent stupid people out there right now. You need to stop letting them in through your Internet and TV. We all need to try and do better, because our lack of care has given them a foothold in our lives that shouldn’t exist.

"I don’t watch your videos or listen to your podcasts. Why do I have to deal with your fans devastating multiple countries and adversely effecting the lives of me and everyone around me? Why are you like that?" I hate it.

Pax,
