RI is RI. It takes all kinds of people.
We're not special. We're not a cult. (and if you are so fuckin' special, I'm outta here.)
Give it a rest. Please.
Fuck that shit. Please.
Uh...please elaborate?
No. Not right now. Sorry.
Great, well, if you don't mind then, I will.
I won't be giving it a rest, I won't be fucking any shit.
Do you see anywhere else quite like this board? No. You're probably wrong if you say you do. But if there are...great! Let's hear it! Less pressure! Are you afraid of this board drawing attention? Like, maybe we're being monitored? It would surprise me if we weren't. This board must set off keyword nets somewhere dark and deep, every hour, on the hour. And...so? How does or should that make a difference? If not that concern...what, then? You don't like the idea of belonging to a cult, right. Who the fuck said anything about a cult? A cult of what, anyway? A cult of individuality, skepticism, criticism, knowledge, truth-seeking, conversation, speculation? What would be wrong with being special? I can see how being special might be hazardous to our health, if it goes to our individual or collective heads, or (more forboding) if it possibly threatens the wrong people, the wrong institutions. What, is acknowledging any specialness supposed to make any specialness more dangerous? Like, some officer at the Pentagon suddenly grows pale and mutters, "Oh my god, they...they know...they know they're special. Sound the alarm!" LMAO. What might be more dangerous is if we are special, this space is special, and we don't recognize it. And, did I not also say, exactly, "It takes all kinds"?

We Are Not The Best. To hell with The Best.
Unlike Ted Williams, I am not a team player, FB. I would no more cozy up to...say... the likes of Barracuda, as I would cozy up to a rattlesnake.
You go on. What do I care.
(I'm going to regret this post in the morning.)
