Storytime... abridged version. I was supposed to go to a wedding in Idaho. My wife and kids left three days early and I was going to meet up with them in Spokane. Well turns out that area is on fire and it's full of smoke, but we didn't realize it until they were already 1/?

I've been seeing a lot of people complain about dead bedrooms with men complaining about women starfishing when they do have sex and women complaining their partners don't please them. I think I figured out the mechanism and am sharing it below. I think it's right.

Been watching this Pitt Bull debate. I think there's at least three groups. People who've directly experienced a fighting style dog go red. People who have had the same kind of dog and had zero problems. And people pretending to know. It's in the breeding. One dog != another.

Well, I think I'm giving up. Because I'm on a free account or something, maybe because I'm on a VPN, X is making my account basically read only. First it was a ghost ban, and now this, and all I did was like a post, no comments, no other likes, just a single like... I give up.

I'm beginning to understand that X has become "pay to say". If you are a free account that engages with X you will likely be shadowbanned, and if you pay you can say the most offensive things possible and have no action taken at all. Free accounts are basically just read only.
