Anybody else feel that the doom and gloom is accelerating?

Maybe it's just me, but the bad feelings are getting worse, things seem to be going fast forward.

I just hope we are all prepared.

I agree they are really not trying to hide anymore so "it" must be getting close. Maybe 2012 was the ZOG's idea to plant instead of the Myans.

I want to think I am ready almost, but when it comes right down to it? I'm scared.
But I'm a good bullshitter and I am very resourceful, but is anyone ever ready for the big change that is coming ? Or Maybe nothing is coming and everything is going to be just fine same ol same ol. :D

La Marseillaise was also the semi-official anthem of USSR after 1917 for a few years.
It`s a fantastic piece and the lady who sings is a huge star also in Russia, we adore her.

Since no one KNOWS what will happen, it's only normal to be scared. BUT, watch the video that G-o-D reposted. It points out in a nice calm manner, WHY many are preparing.

Near the end of the video it's mentioned that we need to still have fun, and will need friends & family & TRUST again. We prepare so we don't have to be anxious.

And that's a solid fact.
They say he's hunting me and as you see,
I'm all swelled up with fear, :P
Cause I can't get him off my back

If you see Jordan (if you see Jordan)
He makes me sick (he makes me sick)
High school's over (high school's over)
And you still won't quit

Did you make it home inside to masturbate?

If you are lucky to live in a gun-friendly state, one gun and one bullet is enough.


That's pretty much my philosophy, but unfortunately I have a family.

But If I were single, I'd just carpe diem until the end and then bite the bullet. I'm just not for preps, or shooting practice, or any of the other things that are useful during the Apocalypse.

Thankfully my dh is one for preps and guns and loading up a bug out location.

Lets get this straight shall we Ximmy.
This twisted song you posted is to try to depict me as some sort of stalker.
Well ximmy I'm no stalker (you wish). You can twist the truth all around and make up the lies, but it wasnt me that jumped in and attacked you. That was you who came in from nowhere and attacked me for what ever twisted reason.
And what did I do about it? Nothing!
Theres nothing anybody can do to help you

I understand you are inexperienced from your mind set of your posts. Its the same age and mind set that many young foolish females have. Just because you are a female doesnt mean all guys are going to fall over you and allow you to walk over them. Or beleive anything you say. As you get older Ximmy the males will start to see you for what you are. Just a teez! And most likely you will be treated as according to nature.
I dont find many nice looking females are all really that nice, just a lot of drama which you are doing a very good job of revealing. They are just twisted problems that think since they have some looks and a hole between their legs or boobs they some how think they are entitled to a posh life of "SELF".
I'm not dumb enough to think just because a female has.....HAHAHAHAHAHHA...... boobs they get special treatment. Any good man worth his merit knows to keep that type at arms length away.
You just keep listening to that korn band with all their twisted unethnical lyrics. I'm sure they have the answers!


You have a problem Ximmy like all the women who have just a smidgen of looks and probably cant handle the truth nor reality.
Some people just dont grow up. Some just abuse themselves and others around them.
You know what Ximmy?
Hurt people hurt people!

The first thing to do is to acknowledge that this system is unsustainable.

Next, make it clear in your mind that this system is run by evil people who will seek to steal and kill and destroy all that is good.

Now realize that you have been prepping and panicking in advance of the rush hour, so you won't have to panic when things get real bad.

Keep alert and calm. Be the predator, not the sheep. In fact, be the predator of the predator. Understand that there is a giant hawk ready to swoop down on the sheep and be ready to snipe that sucker if he comes close to threatening you. Stay out of high visibility places when things turn ugly.

Be prepared to lose everything. Think of the squirrel. If possible, store away in multiple places. When attacked by greater force, abandon the momentary meal and watch from a safe place. A squirrel can bite the brain out of a hawk's skull like the meat from a nut, if it can avoid the claws and bill. The claws are contracts with the state and the bill is the fake money they want you to use exclusively. Be ready to lose all that the world considers value.


Finally, we are not required to live here forever. Be glad for that. But be right with God. If you do not know Him personally, you miss the greatest peace there is. All else is worthless if you are not a freind of God's.

I got a real bad doomer feelin' last night about the time of the OP.
I've been in a pretty zen place lately, and had a nice weekend, then all of the sudden I get a sharp headache, acted like a real prick to my GF, then went to bed and had apocalypse dreams all night, I kept waking up and thinking over and over again 'something big just happened, it has started'. This morning Drudge reads like an end times report.

On one hand I do not look forward to the labor pains, but on the other hand there is some promise of better times on the other side.

Smidgen of looks you say? I don`t know where you have been all these years but I have learned after almost 40 yrs on this planet that the more attractive the women are, the kinder they are and the easier to befriend ;).

I`ve had quite a few close female friends who are world class beauties. They have a common quality among them besides their stunning looks. It`s called quiet confidence, the same as that which world-class athletes have. Really beautiful women tend to be also quite magnanimous.

I`ve had quite a few close female friends who are world class beauties. They have a common quality among them besides their stunning looks. It`s called quiet confidence, the same as that which world-class athletes have. Really beautiful women tend to be also quite magnanimous.

What nasty drug addiction did you say you have?
Heroin was it?
Doesnt surprise me. Most attractive women that I've come across that hang around heroin addicts have way too many skeletons in their closets. And addicts themselves looking for crumbs.
Seen it too many times.

I`ve had very long sober stints, one lasted 11 years. I alternate between being a somewhat beefy, extremely healthy-looking weightlifter and being a skinny, edgy cokehead or a doper. I`ve noticed having lived in 2 radically different images that statistically more women like me when I got that heroin chic than when I am looking like Van Damme. Maybe it has to do with the fact that I deal with mostly extremely brainy people and that includes women.
Brainy beautiful women are not looking for the physical types, they want excitement and I`m pretty exciting even without having to shoot speedballs every 10 minutes.

Actually diesel fuel tastes quite nice. Surprisingly pleasant.

The first thing to do is to acknowledge that this system is unsustainable.

Next, make it clear in your mind that this system is run by evil people who will seek to steal and kill and destroy all that is good.

Now realize that you have been prepping and panicking in advance of the rush hour, so you won't have to panic when things get real bad.

Keep alert and calm. Be the predator, not the sheep. In fact, be the predator of the predator. Understand that there is a giant hawk ready to swoop down on the sheep and be ready to snipe that sucker if he comes close to threatening you. Stay out of high visibility places when things turn ugly.

Be prepared to lose everything. Think of the squirrel. If possible, store away in multiple places. When attacked by greater force, abandon the momentary meal and watch from a safe place. A squirrel can bite the brain out of a hawk's skull like the meat from a nut, if it can avoid the claws and bill. The claws are contracts with the state and the bill is the fake money they want you to use exclusively. Be ready to lose all that the world considers value.


Finally, we are not required to live here forever. Be glad for that. But be right with God. If you do not know Him personally, you miss the greatest peace there is. All else is worthless if you are not a freind of God's.

Yes, it is accelerating. But unless people are going to cut their wrists and end it all we're going for a wild ride. So the question is: how strapped in are you? At some point you have to step outside the inevitable and just live your life. Like Silver Shield borrowed from the Marines, you have to adapt, improvise, and overcome. Softness and comfort are the enemies of survival, as it has all been set up that way. Get your feet wet in cold water, handle sharp logs with your hands, toughen up your mind. You'll do Ok. I would think most GSUS members are ready to go - some may not want to deal with what's coming, but you're miles ahead of the rest. We all have different ways of approaching it, but the common thread is we see it, we analyze it, and we don't deny it. These are the ingredients to survive what's coming. It won't be pretty, but if you let go of the status quo in the midst of chaos you've got it. We all die - so the question is how will you live in the meantime? Believe in yourselves, do good acts, and take responsibility for your family and close associates - it will pay off when they start shooting.

The predator of the predator is a friend of God? Which God does Spectrism befriend, the Jewish G-d or the horned one himself?


The God called YHWH has given us many instructions.

Psa 49:3 My mouth shall speak wisdom, and the thoughts of my heart shall be of understanding.
Psa 49:4 I will bow down my ear to a parable; I will open my dark saying on the harp.
Psa 49:5 Why should I fear in the days of evil, when the perversity of my ambushers will surround me?


Pro 12:15 The way of a fool is upright in his own eyes, but he who listens to advice is wise.


1Co 1:27 But God chose the foolish things of the world that the wise might be put to shame, and God chose the weak things of the world so that He might put to shame the strong things.
1Co 1:28 And God chose the low-born of the world, and the despised, and the things that are not, so that He might bring to nothing the things that are,
1Co 1:29 so that no flesh might glory in His presence.


Pro 31:9 Open your mouth, judge righteously, and defend the poor and needy.



The Jews have forsaken their God and the horned one is a small perverted form of what was created good. My God is the One True Creator who has adopted me into His family. This adoption will be sealed with a wedding ceremony & feast that the whole universe will see. Saved by grace through faith in the Messiah, washed in His blood to be clean and awaiting the resurrection and new incorruptible body, those of us who will accept life are destroyers of death. We break down the gates of hell and drag bodies into light that they may live. Here is what my Messiah says about the evil ones:

Mat 18:4 Then whoever will humble himself as this little child, this one is the greater in the kingdom of Heaven.
Mat 18:5 And whoever will receive one such little child in My name receives Me.
Mat 18:6 But whoever causes one of these little ones believing in Me to offend, it is better for him that a millstone turned by an ass be hung on his neck, and he be sunk in the depth of the sea.
Mat 18:7 Woe to the world from its offenses! It is a necessity for the offenses to come, yet woe to that man through whom the offense comes!

Those who walk blindly in the troubled times ahead will be forced to bleed in support of the evil system. The evil ones are predators of the sheep. The shepherd smites the wolves.... the shepherd is the predator of the predators. Those who choose to be bled and harbor the harpy on their backs willingly cannot be helped. Choice is powerful when used courageously. Choose righteously and be inhabited by the Spirit of the One True God. That Spirit has a very sharp sword.

It is accelerating and has been steadily for the past 100 years, it's just that now we're hitting critical mass. At some point in time soon critical mass will manifest itself in epic failure (SHTF) and recognizing this only gives you an advantage of retaining your freedom, dignity and semblance of life, it does NOT guarantee success. Prepping only gives you a better chance of weathering the storm, for no one can fully prepare for each and every potentiality.

Of course prepping is prudent, we all agree on that and we're ahead of 95%+ of most folks, but even if you haven't spent one cent on preps but have made yourself mentally aware of the possibilities/realities you're still 95%+ far ahead of the rest.

IMHO, it's a lot about what you do with whatever you have and how you're able to adapt and think during a crisis in motion. Some with less will be able to fare better than those with more but have little or no ability to critically think on the fly in shitty situations.

To me everyday is a blessing that affords me the ability to assess the situation and acquire the knowledge and tools to help weather the coming storm. However meager my provisions are I'm still filthy rich compared to the masses, if in no other commodity than being mentally attuned to the reality of it all.

What specifically is scary? Most of this list doesn't really impact you directly.

These don't directly impact you, though they have an indirect non-panic impact:
The unrest in the middle east

The crazy weather all over the world/ floods/earthquakes
Unemployment (unless you are unemployed)
Pension funds or lack thereof
The housing mess

The things that directly impact you:
Oil and gas prices
Food prices and shortages
The health insurance mess

The most likely scenario for all of this is a slow degradation in standard of living, down to maybe 1970's level. If it gets worse than that (SHTF), and you have prepped some food and water, tools and supplies, home protection, and PMs, and you have some friend/family support, then you'll be relatively rich.

You know what's weird? The recreational drug market has all but collapsed. (I know this because I used to be a drug show) It used to be possible to earn a very good living by dealing marijuana, at a very low risk. Now it's nearly impossible. The market for cocaine is a fraction of what it once was, due to adderol being readily available as a prescription medication. Pain killers, heroine, even oxycontin...no money in them anymore, seboxin too readily available and inexpensive.
I used to work with a big ballin drug dealer and I got to be friendly with him. Word is he is now hurting for cash (he used to walk around with 20k in cash on him at all times, probably had a couple hundred K in his safe at home). You know when drug dealers can't make it anymore, the end is very near.

I would agree with the 1930's scenario but as everything now stands we have a knowledge base and an advanced technology capability that didn't exist in the 30's. The 40's and 50's ushered in radical changes in the 60's and we've never looked back. Yes, there are many things from the 30's and earlier that will by necessity come back into demand but our knowledge has precluded a total relapse into the stone age.

There are many turns to this acceleration thing. Let's consider what is coming.

The financial disaster- including real estate, unemployment, stock market, debt surge to cover the deflation of default as well as government meddling- is well under way. It will reach a corner that it cannot escape.

Basic life needs: food, water, shelter. Part of shelter is heat/cooling. Oil prices will eat the strength of the economy and make people feel like they are walking through molasses. The answer to the financial crisis has been printing money. Frankly- I did not see that coming. I actually believed the lying bastards when they said they would not. Never again. But the next crisis they push us into is increased prices due to a devalued dollar. It will be an inflationary depression next. But that is not the end.

Food costs.... energy costs... all costs will accelerate up as money availability will not increase for the lower levels of societies. As bad as Amerikans will see it, much worse will hit other lands.


We are already seeing the unrest, rioting, government overthrows and we have not begun to accelerate in those areas yet.


Next will be wars. They will spring up over night.

Natural disasters are accelerating too.


Does anyone not feel that these are the end days?

In my opinion the standard of living is already way below what it was in the 1970's. True story, we are all sitting around at Christmas and someone was nice enough to knit my daughter a sweater. My Aunt interjected: "I used to have time to make stuff like that." Nobody has time to do anything anymore. That's not progress.

dys


Think about that, dys. If the scenario plays out like you think, then everyone will have time to do those things again. That's progress, right? I'm talking about net standard of living, so that would actually be a gain from today's standard.

We have taken so many advances for granted it's ridiculous. We couldn't be having this conversation in the 1970's, because we live in a different part of the country and there was no electronic forum to bring like-minded individuals together unless they lived in your local county.

The cell phone alone is a meteoric leap in standard of living. Have we all lost sight of how convenient it is to contact anyone, anytime, anywhere, instantly? Do you realize how much that has increased our personal safety alone? Do you think cell phones, internet, and our other global instantaneous communication will go away? Service may be interrupted, yes, but in the 1970's we didn't have it in the first place! K-os (thanks for the compliment, btw) wouldn't be able to be on a Mystery Tour, because she couldn't write code and transmit it to her boss as she traveled across the country, with them periodically making electronic deposits in her account, which are accessible to her from anywhere in the world. Are you kidding me?!?

No matter what happens, the human race will not lose the intellectual and technological gains that have accumulated. We're not going to have to re-invent things that took hundreds of years to discover. Their availability may be limited, and they may cost a lot, but compare that to them not existing!

In the 1970's, few people had air conditioning in their homes and less in their cars, half the cars on the road were rusted out, you had to take an hour to cook a meal in your oven, flying on airplanes was cost prohibitive, etc. Advances in communication, computers, electronics, medicine, etc. have been extraordinary. As I said, access to these things may become restricted or intermittent or expensive, but these are things that didn't exist!

And if you go back to the Depression, the contrast is off the charts. Exactly what do you expect will be worse than it was then? Most of the shit that we're stacking up as preps wasn't even available to the rich prior to the depression! You couldn't hoard a case of soft toilet paper or disposable razor blades, because they hadn't been invented yet

I think most of our preps are so that we don't have to suffer through long interruptions in availability of stuff, or so that we don't have to cut back as much on enjoying staple items, including food, when their cost goes through the roof. You won't have to ration your pasta when a box costs $10 or $20 in the store, because you'll have plenty of $1 pasta in your cupboard.

Having said that, I don't dismiss a more drastic Mad Max SHTF scenario, and I respect those trying to prepare for that, but the preparation for both scenarios is similar. I just think that scenario is very unlikely, like a 1% or 2% thing instead of an 70% or 80% thing.

For me, the "scariest" thing is the threat of interruption to medical supplies and service, either because of availability or cost. Everything else I view as a mere inconvenience, which I can soften with each additional thing I prep.

You guys are right, most people are getting ready according to the way that they are living now and not to the way that they will be living tomorrow.......like buying more games for their hookup tv, what if there is no power?...........and how about buying more frozen foods? (that's me), what will happen when they run out of frozen food? (ouch?), I for one have all that I need to make food but don't know how... at least bread, if nothing else.............and something else, many are waithing till WTSHTF to get ready but by then there will either nothing to buy or it will be to expensive.

You know what's weird? The recreational drug market has all but collapsed. (I know this because I used to be a drug show) It used to be possible to earn a very good living by dealing marijuana, at a very low risk. Now it's nearly impossible. The market for cocaine is a fraction of what it once was, due to adderol being readily available as a prescription medication. Pain killers, heroine, even oxycontin...no money in them anymore, seboxin too readily available and inexpensive.
I used to work with a big ballin drug dealer and I got to be friendly with him. Word is he is now hurting for cash (he used to walk around with 20k in cash on him at all times, probably had a couple hundred K in his safe at home). You know when drug dealers can't make it anymore, the end is very near.

That`s why I don`t bother with preps much.

Yeah...Tyrone will always be there for you bro!

Yes, the dealers are lucky to afford their own dope plus some groceries, I know. Suboxone is hell, by the way. I tried it twice and couldn`t quit, had to go back on dope, then a bit of methadone and detox from meth finally.

Yes, Book. Tyrones of the world will always be there for me but they won`t be there for you. That`s why I don`t need much preps and ain`t shaking in fear of TSHTF.

You see, I had to go to areas where S has already HTF, every day for years, often at night. The shit has not only hit the fan for the South Bronx already but for me too. Having lived thru SHTF is the best prep there is.

The only way to survive in any society is to be useful in some way to some other human/humans. Preps should be skills, not things. Things can be and will be taken away from you. Things will be given to you by other humans, including food and a loaded gun if you prove to be useful to some humans.

Otherwise you can try to survive alone by yourself in a forest etc.

People were not told the truth when they needed to act. When they were told later that they had to go, they did not believe it. They were still believing the lies.

This is a good lesson. DON'T expect the government to tell you what is good for you. Act now. Act fast. When you suspect a problem, ACT! Be prepared to run. Be ready to be the one that everyone calls a nutcase or a paranoid. Fight for your life when they tell you the X-ray scanner is safe. Fight for your life when they tell you the implant is safe.

The lesson of Chernobyl is not that our govts are criminal, this we`ve known for a long time. My bones were full of radioactive strontium and cesium when I was in my teens, I could set a Geiger counter on fire like most Russian kids of my generation.I`ve pissed it all out pretty fast though, probably it took a few years.

The lesson of this classic SHTF is that there was no or next to no crime among the chaos. There were no rapes, no looting ( there was looting of the abandoned town later, by the cretins who were happy to pick up an item which killed them in a few months). There was a monumental organized effort to save as many lives as possible, even at the expense of one`s own life like the firemen who knew they weren`t coming back from this.

The biggest asset in a case of real SHTF is love for your fellow people. Fear of your enemies and hatred of them are natural but are not enough to survive.

The biggest lesson of heroin addiction:

If one decides to quit like I did, withdrawal is inevitable. Acute opiate withdrawal from a large habit is 1-2 weeks of non-stop screaming pain which sometimes drives people to suicide and in 95% of cases leads to a relapse. The only way to cope with this pain is to imagine even bigger pain and be thankful that yours is not THAT pain.

When gas hits 5$, imagine that it`s already 7$ and you`ll feel better, when it`s 7$ imagine it`s 10$ and so on.

You will be changing your definition of SHTF.... as you do not realize there are many forms of hell, not just drugs or radiation.





The lesson of this classic SHTF is that there was no or next to no crime among the chaos. There were no rapes, no looting ( there was looting of the abandoned town later, by the cretins who were happy to pick up an item which killed them in a few months). There was a monumental organized effort to save as many lives as possible, even at the expense of one`s own life like the firemen who knew they weren`t coming back from this.

This happens in most civilized societies when those who can do something lay down their lives in an effort to help others.

When people or animals are oppressed, they mostly become humbled. BUT when these same creatures are put into the right conditions of NEEDLESS oppression or tormented by fellow man or trained to have an entitlement mentality, then the deeds will be quite different. We are surrounded by many uncivilized people who believe that others owe them comfort.

I have met the people who came out of Haiti from the old days of tonton macoute rule with their paranoid gazes over their shoulders and their gratefulness in humbly receiving something from another. I have seen destitute Mexicans and Guatemalans who held the dignity of bearing up with their places in life. I even lived in America in a day when the poor did not expect that others owed them everything. Since God is now ridiculed as a myth and Darwin is hailed as the great discoverer of humanity in ransom chance, we now have a society largely irresponsible and held to no principled accountability.




The biggest asset in a case of real SHTF is love for your fellow people. Fear of your enemies and hatred of them are natural but are not enough to survive.

You put yourself on the verge of death and opened your soul to malevolence while building friendship among dope pushers. I thought it was all Bullshit but it smells more like primate feces.

And if you go back to the Depression, the contrast is off the charts. Exactly what do you expect will be worse than it was then?



Thirty million illegal aliens running loose?

Much of our population whacked out on drugs prescription or otherwise?

Half our population now obese?

Little domestic oil still in the ground?

Third of our children can't graduate from high school?

Every man, woman, and child in America now owing some unknown unidentified unaudited jew bank system $130,000?

No actual grain in farm silos anymore since just-in-time distribution.

I can go on...

:)


Oh, that. ;)

Even with all that, it's not clear whether that adds up to worse, or just different. Some of the things on your list don't matter that much. It's not really an imposition if the population is fat or on drugs or can't graduate high school, or if we all owe $130,000 that will never get paid.

I don't mean to take any of this lightly; just trying to think about the real consequences. To the OP, it probably looks like it's accelerating, but one could argue it looked worse in 2008. And it probably still isn't as scary as it must have been early in WW2 when most of the world was at war. I still think we need to see a bigger sign of acceleration to think we are close to a dramatic shift. Maybe that's right around the corner, related to the unrest in the Middle East, or the Wisconsin union battle, or our monetary troubles. Something could snap from these issues, but I don't think the shoe has dropped yet. There's still time to position yourself.

Westerners tend to put much faith into material things, hence their prepping style.

Russians lean towards the East in their thinking. We know that pain is a-comin`.

First we prepare our souls for what`s to come, then prepare our minds,after that our bodies and only then invest in things.

Westerners have reversed the order.

We`ll see how you will fare.


You are full of bravado Bullshit.

And, you will likely NOT see how any of us will fare.

You don`t consider my proven track record of extreme risk-taking an asset during SHTF?

You said we need to be the predators of the predators.

Not all predators are noble creatures like lions, scorpions are also predators, even intestinal parasites are predators in a sense.

Aristocracies arise from the gene pools of predators and that of noble risk-takers.
Risk-taking is the most important element which is common to both the evil and the good elites.
Having experienced huge amounts of mortal danger and laughing my ass off along the way I`ve placed myself above the common man.
I haven`t become a predator which places me in the second category of the extreme risk-takers.

I am in a good company, Spectrism.

Here are her quotes:
No two people on earth are alike, and it's got to be that way in music or it isn't music.
Ch. 4
I can’t stand to sing the same song the same way two nights in succession, let alone two years or ten years. If you can, then it ain’t music, it’s close-order drill or exercise or yodeling or something, not music.
Ch. 4
You can be up to your boobies in white satin, with gardenias in your hair and no sugar cane for miles, but you can still be working on a plantation.
Ch. 11
I've been told that nobody sings the word "hunger" like I do. Or the word "love."
Ch. 22
If you think dope is for kicks and for thrills, you’re out of your mind. There are more kicks the fuck to be had in a good case of paralytic polio or by living in an iron lung. If you think you need stuff to play music or sing, you’re crazy. It can fix you so you can’t play nothing or sing nothing.
Ch. 23
In this country, don’t forget, a habit is no damn private hell. There’s no solitary confinement outside of jail. A habit is hell for those you love. And in this country it’s the worst kind of hell for those who love you.

Them that's not shall lose
So the Bible said and it still is news
Mama may have, Papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own

Yes, the strong gets more
While the weak ones fade
Empty pockets don't ever make the grade
Mama may have, Papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own

Money, you've got lots of friends
Crowding round the door
When you're gone, spending ends
They don't come no more
Rich relations give
Crust of bread and such
You can help yourself
But don't take too much
Mama may have, Papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own

But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own

Yeah...we can all identify with a negro junkie here at GSUS:




Billie Holiday died in the Metropolitan Hospital, New York, on Friday, July 17, 1959, in the bed in which she had been arrested for illegal possession of narcotics a little more than a month before, as she lay mortally ill; in the room from which a police guard had been removed – by court order – only a few hours before her death, which, like her life, was disorderly and pitiful. She had been strikingly beautiful, but she was wasted physically to a small, grotesque caricature of herself. The worms of every kind of excess – drugs were only one – had eaten her ...

The biggest lesson of heroin addiction: If one decides to quit like I did, withdrawal is inevitable. Acute opiate withdrawal from a large habit is 1-2 weeks of non-stop screaming pain which sometimes drives people to suicide and in 95% of cases leads to a relapse.

My initial question was, " Is it accelerating," Guess I have the answer, Full blast. :(

Are you going to continue making fun of my soulless stare? I said multiple reactors popping like pimples and 3 wks later it was delivered.

PS. ;D.


Yes I will laugh every time I hear about that soulless stare of yours, at least that will give me a good laugh and a smile before I get nuked. :D

I wrote a story about these days.... and I envisioned them a little different back in 1995 when I wrote most of the story line. It is a futuristic, sci-fi, end times adventure.

One of the lines in that book was: Things are accelerating!

Here's how one deals with trolls.

"You are ignoring this user. Show me the post."

I did use the ban feature on GIM for a couple douchebags, but I haven't used it here for anyone.
I found that, even if I knew I hated a poster, other people would quote them and I would still see whatever they were saying due to the other peoples posts. Then I would get curious after reading half a conversation, and click on the "let me read this post" button, then I would get annoyed by the posts that I would go out of my way to read by the blocked user.

Does that make sense? No.

So I don't bother. If a poster gets under my skin, I either flat out state it, or just avoid them.
