dude, what... he's, um, peeing on the floor and rocket-shitting on the walls??
reply
Is the perfect explanation of how somebody goes to vote. Voting being represented by shitting and peeing all around. Voter trying not to get touched by the shit, trying to get out. But the catch of voting is that: THERE'S NO WAY OUT WITHOUT BEING FULL OF SHIT. It's the voter paradox and a mental gymnastic for the voters. Practically lying themselves.
reply
Why practically? They are lying to themselves, big time!
reply
Tough place to be. I guess it's pretty comfortable?
reply
We are laughing at this simple meme, but is fucking true and complex, showing the shity situation we are now. Because think about another thing: WHO is going to clean the mess that voters did? The rest of the people, outside of the toilet booth. The ones that didn't want to be involved in the mess, involuntarily now are in the same mess, without any consent !
Hey voter, WHY I should clean your shity mess you leave behind?
reply
Because the voters think they can enslave you! Especially when voters are tax accepters.
reply
This meme inspired me to write this post on the toilet.

Did you make it? It seriously so much goodness in one picture. I can appreciate memes more than ever now.

pretty strong to hold himself like that, I imagine
reply
Yeah. It's a lot to juggle. Which takes a lot of strength. Of course getting down and using the toilet would be a lot easier. Kind of seems like he doesn't need to be up there.
reply
Using the toilet (not voting) is the least option these voters will think. They live in a continuous cognitive dissonance, mesmerized by the myth of authority.
If they will use the toilet, as any intelligent adult and clean their hands, will just get out as normal, by the door. But nooo, they have to do that gymnastic of voting, shitting around and making a mess for anybody else.

One day two frogs were hopping in and out of a watering hole and accidentally hopped in an extremely deep hole. They tried to leap out, but to no avail had no success, so they began to yell and croak until other frogs heard them and came to help. The other frogs looked over into the hole and said the hole was too deep for them to help, but both frogs kept leaping up the sides of the hole. The other frogs, leaning over the hole and waving their front legs, began to yell to the frogs to just give up and die and that there was no hope of them getting out of the hole, but both frogs kept leaping and trying to get out of the hole. They leaped for hours and one of the frogs just gave up he was so exhausted and died. The other frog in the hole kept leaping, but the other frogs, leaning over the hole, kept yelling and waving their front legs for him to stop and give up, but the frog kept leaping trying to get out of the hole. Finally the frog leaped so high that he was able to leap to the top of the hole and used his back legs to push himself up out of the hole. The other frogs said even though we told you to give up that there was no hope of you getting out of the hole you kept leaping. The frog that got out of the hole thanked the other frogs for egging him on - the other frogs didn't know that this frog was deaf.
Lesson: Sometimes you have to turn a "deaf ear" to what others tell you is impossible.

Great story! There are a lot more like it and it does not depend on language or culture.

I like the one about two frogs swimming in a pot of cream, unable to escape. One gives up and drowns, but the other one is determined to survive. He keeps swimming and swimming until the creams churns into butter.

I've had a horse and a revolver several times, but they're difficult to maintain. There are still few stackers with a wallet attached! Ahahah ... if you notice I spend and receive above the threshold.
reply
It's especially hard to hold on to a horse.
reply
yes, because it's not just up to us!
reply
I've had my horse for 11 days... but keep losing the revolver. I don't think it's because of a lack of zapping people, but I tend to zap from my phone where I pay invoices rather than through my connected wallet. I should set up again for the phone.
reply
yes!
gun (sending wallet) horse (receiving wallet)
The more stackers that have a wallet attached, the easier it is to reach the threshold.

Ask where they Work

Get all the details about their place of work; ask to see evidence of this.
With a person’s name, title and place of work, you can usually find everything else about them within 24 hours.

Also you can find their insurance policy and if is necessary, you can put a lien on it. That hurts them the most.
Here is a good book about liens and how to use them in your defense: The lien machine
reply
This works especially well if you can get them un-bonded. They need to be bonded and insured to work in government.
