It’s not about being comfortable. This is a public forum and I for one don’t want the content I consume to be in a thought vacuum.

While I can empathize and even appeal to Boston’s remark, I have no interest in the US devolving a land of vigilantism and “purges.”

You had the perfect word to fit in there and instead you went with “gone”!? Come on man!

If you’re wealth is in stock that have voting rights and you founded the company, getting rid of the stock is risky as it reduces your control over the company. In that case, if you sell you stock to lower your wealth, a bad faith actor could come in and depose you. If you’re a “good millionaire” then this could then have the effect of lowering your charitable giving potential.

Stocks are essentially people putting bets on you and your company. Most billionaires don’t just become billionaires by themselves…the public anoints them.

And I think the public should be able to rescind that if the person does more public harm than good.

Mine is more goal based, I have a section for what I accomplished today, what I worked on, what I couldn’t do and why, anything in particular that I noticed from a physical, mental or emotional standpoint, the status of long term goals, new ideas, and what I’m looking forward to tomorrow.

I don’t fill out every section every day, except for the first one. I just like to do it because it gives me some purpose on this wonderful journey of mine.

Let it motivate you to go vote. You are not alone, even if you live in a deeply red area.

Every person who votes helps tell the story that the majority of this country rejects a crazy person leading our country.

Democracy Dies in Darkness indeed.

Could have done the right thing one last time for people who actually experienced it.

Instead, it’ll remain a black mark on the state and now doubly so. We’ll have to wait for the epilogue 100 years from now.

But I suppose you couldn’t have expected much more from a folk who takes pride in stealing land, and doubling down by cheating when doing so.

I don't visit Twitter, how do I stop hearing about every little toxic bullshit line Elon has to say?

It still bewilders me why we are even having this conversation. The guy tried to overthrow our government. The government of the people, in accordance of our constitution. If that’s not the definition of treason I don’t know what is.

Because it's fore-fathers ya dolt! Do I have to explain everything?

I also appreciated this particular nugget in the article:

While Harris has not personally given birth, neither has any other occupant of the White House.

A modern day Cincinnatus, the Supreme Court just made him a consul and he just chose to go back to being a common man for the good of the republic.

If this plays out, he’ll go down in history books as the man who sacrificed himself to save Democracy.

A general rule is if it has pores instead of gills, you’re probably in the clear.

Except for that one in Europe, that shit will megadeath you.

In all seriousness, the general rule I’ve heard for foraging wild unknown things is:

• cut it open and rub it on your skin, wait an hour, if it gives you a reaction, stop here.
• touch it to your lips, wait a while, if it gives you a reaction, stop here
• touch it to your tongue, wait a while, if it gives you a reaction, stop here
• chew a bit and spit it out, wait a while, if it gives you a reaction, stop here
• swallow a small amount, wait a few hours, if it gives you discomfort, stop here
• if you’ve made it this far, it’s likely ok, do so at your own risk tolerance

Roots are generally OK, particularly if you have access to double boil them.

For mushrooms:

• pores are generally safer than gills
• don’t eat it if it’s bioluminescent
• don’t eat if it oxidizes quickly when you cut it open
• don’t eat it if it bruises blue or red
• learn how to detect what a bolete is. Boletes are generally safe, unless it breaks one of the rules above
• Slime: Just say no.
• make sure there’s not a mushroom growing on your mushroom. Double the mushroom is not double the fun.
• learn what a destroying angel looks like, even when it’s young. Appreciate it from a distance, but give that fucker 5 feet of space at all times.

I am by no means an expert. I’m just a rando guy from Appalachia with some wild ass Russian buds and we do some funky shit down here. Take everything I say with as much trust as you give to anyone on the Internet.

When in doubt, take it to an expert and even then, consume at your own risk tolerance.
