  • Non-violence is very effective when violence is visibly on the sidelines looking for an excuse to step in.

  • Women have been trained to see men this way too. I showed vulnerability to my ex one time, and her attitude changed overnight and she broke up with me not long after.

  • Philoctetes?

  • 21st century schizoid posting

  • In theory, an all-powerful benevolent dictator could use that power to restructure everything before stepping down. Problem is, the sort of person who would become an all-powerful dictator is the sort of person least likely to benevolently give up power.

  • St Peter's Cross, a Wiccan pentagram, 3, a Caduceus, the Eye of Providence, just a regular eye, two pseudo-alchemical symbols, the Unicursal hexagram, 666?

    All those symbols that have any actual occult meaning would be more appropriate in banishing or warding against possession than causing it. Smh, what are they even teaching mages these days?

    EDIT: While I'm no alchemical scholar, the first pseudo-alchemical symbol could be implying a precipitation of bismuth. Supposedly, alchemists referred to bismuth as silver in the process of maturing, so precipitation could be interpreted as hurrying that process, also suggesting use in warding.

    Can't find anything for the second, but funnily enough it's, roughly, used as a symbol of sobriety.

  • Which would be why I said "powerless" was the operative word.

    "Billions of dollars in diamonds and precious metals" is a spook in the first place.

  • Eh, if we're just talking about the fit, I'm kinda okay with a king as like a powerless cultural mascot if the people like it. Powerless being the operative word.

  • I do love me an advertisement that's basically a patent.

    Popular Mechanics, I should have known.

  • It's like a 3-layer meta joke on "wag-the-dog". The media's up their own ass these days.

  • I would, in that car. That thing is cruising the suburbs at a cool 35, mph tops. Perfect for a trip to the park.
