@guerrillarain I wonder, then.. I've met dutiful smokers won take their spent filters with them instead of toss a "butt.."

Not too hard I wonder. :p

Uh,

@guerrillarain You know more than me, about whether or not he disposes them, right? I know there are "stage" cigarettes that have no tobacco and certain flavors. Also: :3

@guerrillarain "good smelling cigarettes"

This line speaks to me.

@kel @kara_dreamer Make sure to have a headset on, then, I've had hard times when I'm mumbling.

I don't know how to negotiate your problem. There's almost nothing that can capture the first time, since you don't know what's coming. Then, things can happen so fast, vague, but intense and precise. How is it possible to write or type it all? How can we not lose details moments after they've happened?

Maybe it's a lesson on grief. Entropy, the matrix universe's garbage collection, only hopes we can preserve enough of what happens. It seems like a large burden to have flashbacks of a vision upon your memory's demand.

@kara_dreamer I don't trust myself to remember anything unless I've related it to myself for later. Audio, paper, my phone, printed notes, Google docs, I've used them all to keep track of things.

Entropy exists, so these things are gonna slip through the cracks to feed the universe's garbage memory collection. And no note will be perfect, but the moment will be remembered better, too.

Is that what you mean by slipping away? Mission creep can be like that, aka moving goalposts

@kara_dreamer It is frustrating, there is something about the framing of the knowledge that isn't apparent in the context of times afterward.

@kara_dreamer Wait, why did you ask the question? Are you celebrating finding it was me, or is this also you delivering praise? 🤔 😶

@Ulfra_Wolfe wow, losing a laptop is not easy to do or endure. Hang in there. I hope it turns up.

This is the difference between telling someone a half-truth instead of the whole truth, or more.

The whole truth is unequivocally speaking, clearly & frankly.
But there are also half truths, & maybe?, serendipitously UNDERSTOOD triple+? truths.

A half truth is a double truth, as a masquerade for the only truth: that it's not a lie. The speech allows the observer to mis triangulate the vector of intent. They could worm their way through being responsible for your understanding of anything they say, but only by using your validation of their victimization

@kara_dreamer It was me, Dio!!!!!

I realized (& gotta write) that there is a way a person unequivocally talks. So many statements in our language that people have intended coded meanings, but others speak in ways that unequivocally leave such codes out by being frank & clear, & maybe those unequivocal speakers even moderate the conversation's boundaries.

Essentially, an abuser would make you disconnect the text from the subtext by providing a false flag, making you read a different subtext. But taking advantage of you misinterpreting their targeted blatherings.
Legal, not political

@bstacey @kara_dreamer Hey, folk; I actually DO scrapbook most of my links, and I wouldn't be surprised if we all are, in a small way...
But I totally see the point you make, @bstacey , without needing another article to agree, @kara_dreamer, did you miss the original quotes used? I don't have them handy but saw news bites of the whole declaration. :/

@edensaesthetic "Excuse me, this transgender group accepts the existence of NON BINARY identities, right?"

Wow, what a question I imagined to ask. Those experiences sound so marginalizing and ignorant.

@roastbeest Thank you for saying all this. <3

Here's another selfie from the other day. I'm gonna thread more selfies there, go check if you want:
