I try not to overshare here but I'm an addict and you're right. The second and third and fourth and fifth chances we give people to "get clean" is bullshit. Narcan should be for the naive college kid who bought a fake Oxy or Adderall and accidentally OD'd. But of course it's turned into an insurance policy for addicts and thus is more of an enablement for bad behavior. Basically the only options are we start executing drug users and dealers like the Philippines did for a minute or we legalize it all and let the problem burn itself out.

so do you want to be killed

only if you promise to be a good goy

Seriously though, what you're proposing is noble but it sounds like you're advocating for someone to let you die

Thanks - I knew you'd come through with a cite.

Arthur C Clarke was a pedophile, Asimov died of AIDs from a blood transfusion

The Clarke shit is going to be very hard to prove much of anything. He might have been, but it all seems to have come out posthumously. It's hard to pinpoint much of anything here.

I don't even remember how I first stumbled on it, may have been a Vox Day thing related to his butting heads with the Writer's Guild and publishing Moira Greyland's book, but I think I remember reading about it before hand. I don't think a big deal was made of it because he cut a deal with the Feds, flipping on tons of people. Part of the reason I get snippy about actual pedos and people tilting at animated windmills is that actual pedos do shit like Asimov here did. Epstein was using teenage girls for whatever the fuck the blackmail worked out to be, either money or just initiation into their sick club of elites, real pedos though? Think of how you get around attractive members of which sex you're into. Now imagine that, but aimed at prepubescent children with a coomer's intensity. It used to be Star Trek, now it's more Roblox and where ever else the real kids are.

The Sci-Fi/Fantasy community had and has a sex pest problem no one wants to talk about. Except good ol' Teddy, he's not all bad.

Oh yeah just look at the Marion Zimmer Bradley & Walter Breen Shit, or the David Eddings child abuse case, or just L. Rob Hubbard's fuckery. Hell, add on stuff like Samuel Delany's NAMBLA advocacy, Alice Sheldon's double suicide with her husband, and all the weird fucking stuff with Philip K. Dick who might have been fucking 16-18 year old hippy girls in the late 60s and throughout the 70s. Or how about Tolkein's pedophile son?

There's a lot of shit that's just dark and weird with the sci-fi and fantasy writer/creator world in the past century.

But, hey, the good writers are remembered. L. Ron Hubbard's stuff wasn't good enough to bypass his rep, which is probably why a ton of it is in used bookstore bins. Same with Marion Zimmer Bradley. Neil Gaiman may be going that way now too.

I'll be a good goy. But more seriously the way I look at it is if even a retard like me can quit hardcore drugs then I have no idea what value to society keeping the rest of these drug addicted retards around is worth.

Speaking of, do we know much of anything about Chinese air defense?

What do you want to know? That's an extremely broad question about a broad category.

 

[MrJokerRager]

It might take 7 centuries for the list to be released.

Like it took 7 centuries for the Knights Templar to win a clemency.

Were folks like Giles De Rais even guilty since Epstein is kind of similar to that man.

 

[gay porn is the best porn]

What do you want to know? That's an extremely broad question about a broad category.

As in, if the US were to fly B2s over to China, would they be able to find them and shoot them down? Additionally, what do we know about their most modern missile interceptors (as in, how good at their job would they be against American missiles and how many are made yearly)?

I read this as you are a current addict rather than a former addict.

 

[Eventide]

Clarke was knighted and, like many people, I assumed he’d been smeared as a pedophile

...UK sure has a tendency to knight pedos, huh?

 

[Dan Abrams]

I read this as you are a current addict rather than a former addict.

Once you become addicted it's too late for you. It's like opening Pandora's box. Once you're addicted you're addicted for life.

It's over. I wish I had just played donkey Kong 64 with my wigger friends in 2001 instead of my brothers meth pipe..who knows where my life could have gone, I could have been the son of a President.

She’s a piece of shit but c’mon, having sympathy for people who choose to engage in that lifestyle is pointless. Junkies are scum and the civilized world would be better off if we shipped them all to an island in shark-infested waters and just dropped them food, water and fent until they all overdose and die.
>you’re a big meanie!
Okay then give them the fucking choice, rapid opiate detox plus random testing for life, or off to Courtney Love Island you go.

Junkies are just awful. I dread having to take a piss in a large, beautiful train station near me because the bathroom is absolutely filled at all hours of the day with junkies talking to themselves, screaming in the bathroom stalls, laying on the floor, staring at their hands in the sink like zombies. Just build a barracks, round these people up, and detox them. Let me take a piss in peace.

Anything to tear down the competent authors of the past to make room for the mediocre authors of the present, I see. Kinda like when niggers tear down statues of White people.

It's funny how we're expected to separate the artist from the artwork (at least with today's "artists") but the sins of the dead always seem to come back to haunt them and taint their work and the art fags never seem to object.

 

[StudMccool]

please ghostse give me more attention I wanna see you write more paragraphs sperging out

Ukraines fault for shelling donbas and acting like the victim when Russia intervened. If you want to see more of what I have to say just go into the Russia thread.

Speaking of, do we know much of anything about Chinese air defense?

I never and I mean NEVER will pass up an opportunity to share the Chinese MAC cannon

I laugh EVERYTIME its crazy, fucker gets sent back to the Ming dynasty

Seems universal. Every major philosopher (esp the French ones) seems to be a degenerate

The Chinese seem to love blowing people up in the silliest ways possible. Just ask Hong Xiuqan.

Spoiler: 37 STATES WOULDN’T LET PRITZKER RUN FOR 3RD TERM IN 2026

37 STATES WOULDN’T LET PRITZKER RUN FOR 3RD TERM IN 2026
by Dylan Sharkey, Charlotte Rotkis
JULY 8, 2025

37 states wouldn’t let Pritzker run for 3rd term in 2026​

Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker is running for a third term in 2026. In two-thirds of the states, term-limit laws would prevent him from running.

Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker is running for a third term in 2026. In 37 states, he wouldn’t be allowed to run again.

Illinois is one of just 13 states with no gubernatorial term limits. In 37 states, governors are limited to two consecutive terms – sometimes for life, sometimes with a required gap before they can run again. That means in those 37 out of 50 states, Pritzker would already be wrapping up and looking for his next job.

If Pritzker wins reelection, he would be the first three-term Democratic governor in Illinois history. Former governors Jim Thompson and Richard Oglesby were both Republicans elected three times.

When any incumbent is in an uncompetitive seat, the lack of competition makes them more susceptible to special interests. Without comprehensive term limits for both executive and legislative offices, Illinois is vulnerable to concentrated power that stifles innovation, responsiveness and public trust. Term limits ensure new voices and ideas can rise. They curb the self-interest that can grow with prolonged tenure. And they make it clear that elected office is a temporary position of service – not a career.

Polling consistently shows Illinoisans support term limits. In 2014, nearly 600,000 voters signed a petition to put a term limits referendum on the ballot, only to have it blocked by the state’s courts.

If Pritzker runs and wins again in 2026, he will serve 12 consecutive years, which is only possible because Illinois doesn’t have basic safeguards in place like nearly everywhere else.

But [then], Pritzker’s 2018 presidential ambitions may limit his third term anyway.
