If you get maced expect to be out of commission for 20 minutes or so. It can be absolutely debilitating especially the hard stuff the feds use.
Sudecon wipes work best. You can order from Amazon or wherever in bulk. Use half to wipe off the poison and half to clean your face after.

I'm hoping that if Mamdani smokes Coumo, that's the first signal that the old establishment is breaking. I'm confident 2026 will be the first widespread test and New York would be handwaved away, but that would crystalize the vibe shift towards anti-Democratic Party Democratic voters.

The good news is, these type of Dems have no constituency outside of people who make six figures and live in Manhattan and Northern Virginia.

I’m less sanguine about the Night of the Long Posts because of how instrumental taking him down was to Putin consolidating and eliminating any independent oligarchs during his rise.

I look to them running or supporting candidates who exclusively get below 5% of the vote.

CYBERPUNK MEDIA: the CEOs can just wave their hands and all of the world's ICBMs will be launched at los angeles
CYBERPUNK REAL LIFE: the CEOs enable a resurgence of HIV because the amount of debt held by the US government is in proportion to how often their kids don't talk to them anymore

The man had Tony Hinchcliff do a tight five composed entirely of ethnic slurs and got the highest minority vote share of any Republican in decades.

It just makes this feel so much more lonely. That I'm mourning someone who cable news and conspiracy theories and bullshit facebook memes caused to stop talking to me or acknowledging me. Now just thinking about that moment makes me cry because he'll never repair that bridge with me.

It really, really sucks because she was always conservative but since Covid she's gone completely insane. I really wish I could turn off loving the people who raised me even when they reject my existence but, you know, that's the price of being a better person than them

It's bad enough she chooses to live in a state I can't legally travel to and stopped talking to me around the time Ron DeSuckass decided to start scapegoating trans people but fucking shit, stop being a fucking bigot to the people trying to save your husband.

If I’d transitioned at 18, I could have been gorgeous. Exact same height and weight back then.

Honestly, yes, knowing that I’m helpful always feels nice.

I don't want this in my head but I broke a long time ago. There's no fixing my brain and making me the person I was before C-PTSD again. I can only manage and obviously I'm not even doing that well.
Find a balance and don't let the bastards do to you what I did to myself a long time ago.

Because that's what the 4/20 conspiracy made me feel, like I was watching millions of people be consumed and traumatize themselves, descending into nihilism, paranoia, and conspiracy.
Please, please, please protect your peace the best you can. You don't want this in your head.

I'm not going away forever but I am touching more grass and spending more time with friends and desperately attempting to limit my news consumption.
What I want to say is, I'm concerned about others right now, I don't want you to be as ineffective as I am. As broken by trauma.

I say all this not just to give insight into whats wrong, but to express a worry. I feel like in the era of Trump, social media is becoming a trauma machine, where instead of offering solidarity, infinite takes about atrocity after atrocity traumatizes people and, per the admin. it's by design.

I did see a real doc on Tuesday and got diagnosed with trapezius myalgia. I was literally so stressed for so long that the stress strained/tore my trapezius muscles. Recovery may be a few weeks to a few months. As for now, I'm on muscle relaxers and OTC pain relievers.

The pain was an 8 on a 1-10 and I had to leave work early. My neck and shoulders burned and the bones cracked when I turned my head. I was in agony but I thought I slept wrong.
Until it lasted into Wednesday and I made an appointment with a chiropractor. I saw them Monday with no success.

But it didn't matter. Knowing the rumor was there was enough and I spent all of April in a state of constant terror until the date came and went. Even though I KNEW it was impossible, my endocrine system didn't.
I woke up on 4/21 not to martial law, but intense pain in my neck.

I knew, I KNEW, logistically, this was not a possible move. There aren't enough soldiers, the U.S. is too big, there weren't national guard call ups, OSINT channels weren't posting vids of APCs or IFVs rolling into cities in anticipation. I knew it would look like RU's mobilization and it didn't.

I say that to circle around to 4/20. The day Donald Trump was going to celebrate Hitler's birthday by invoking the insurrection act and declaring nationwide martial law.
I tried to avoid this rumor because I knew it was B.S. and conspiratorial thinking. But I couldn't fully avoid the infohazard.

For five and half years, I've lived every day with some degree of mortal terror every time something bad happens. I can't control it, even when I know the danger isn't realistic. I might know that internally, but my bodies threat response still jumps to 11. Agoraphobia doesn't help, nor does autism.

I've disclosed by C-PTSD in depth before and how trauma brain can not respond logically to threats. It responds to every potential threat as if it is a life threatening certainty.
It disables your ability to respond effectively and freezes you. I earned it surviving terminal illness.

Oh they absolutely are but I promise that they were doing that in the Biden administration too. China is seen as likely to try and invade Taiwan by then.
