@MentORPHEUS Interesting. I combined your two posts and was able to post it. Let me know if this happens again and I'll check the logs immediately. Sorry for the trouble. We're being hit pretty consistently now it's been a game of wack-a-mole
@redpillschool it was a reply to Lurker, in this thread. www.trp.red/feed/status/232095 First attempt gave a vague error message. Posted fine once split into 2 smaller replies.
@MentORPHEUS I'm having a really hard time finding any evidence of this in our system logs. Were you posting a status on trp.red or a comment or post on forums.red?
@redpillschool I just got the same error again when trying to make a long reply. Had to split it into 2 smaller replies which posted fine. But that's a tedious process on mobile, and the whole affair would frustrate me to give up posting at all, on a site that I don't feel a strong connection to like this one.
@lurkerhasarisen (Continued) This has been an ongoing conversation with my 80yo widowed Boomer Mom, who will be able to live out her days financially secure in a comfortable retirement village. I, will not be able to live the same fate, and neither will my Brothers kids, neither of whom has opted to have kids of their own well into their 30s.
In my case, Covid lock downs bankrupted my business and stripped away 40+ years of the fruits of hard work. My Brother lost his retirement nest egg when his wife ran off with some dude and got rewarded with half the marital assets automatically.
America is way over the cliff edge already. Not a matter of if, but when, the system crashes epically hard. A small Oligarch class already has their golden parachutes strapped on and ready to deploy. For the rest of us, the prospects look grim indeed, literally no matter what we do.
Read More@lurkerhasarisen Heh, it came up under the masthead California Post when I clicked on the link from a CA IP address. And, the second I read Obama in the title, I correctly guessed exactly what sort of article I was about to read, and precisely what it would include and omit to sheepdog readers toward establishment safe conclusions.
What this conspicuously left OUT, is how what gets called Capitalism and Democracy in America, has gotten completely captured and configured to min/max every aspect of economic and political activity, into a powerful engine to funnel wealth and power away from the bulk of the population, and into the hands and wallets of the 0.0.01 % class.
Dropping out of such a blatantly corrupt system, IS the rational response to the reality of what trying to engage and live within such a system offers average Americans. It's actually but a palatable intermediate plateau, a holding pattern far short of the only thing that offers escape from this cynical and brutal holding pattern: violent French level Revolution!
Read More@Vermillion-Rx I totally understand and empathize with the compassion fatigue that comes with the duties of moderating a large community.
That said, be careful about these frustrations burning away your capacity for compassion and empathy, and leaving nothing but a burnt crisp of pedantic authoritarianism.
Sometimes it may require conscious effort, to avoid throwing out the Community in a society increasingly hostile toward Men baby, with the tsunami of incorrigible retards bathwater.
@First-light yeah I had to refresh the page and delete half my OP to get it to post. That was a longer list of charges than even the worst cases I've seen in these bodycam videos. Thus I was extra surprised to see almost all of them dismissed, no jail time, and zero restitution ordered.
Officer stops to help a woman holding a tiny puppy change a tire on the highway shoulder. Turns out she has felony warrants, so she repays his kindness by running over his jack and fleeing.
The freshly installed spare gets immediately flattened, and despite spinning out twice as a result, she gets on the highway and flees at speeds approaching 100mph.
She tries a high speed swerve around traffic, and in the resulting spinout that experienced drivers see coming well in advance, knocks 2 innocent drivers spinning into the median while she slams backwards into the right shoulder.
