Check it out, Trolly's got a new BFF! Doesn't take much to get in your pants, does it? Movie ticket and a large soda.

Yet countries do this regularly when deciding who to give international aid to, who to ally with and so on.

If we aren't allowed to prefer one country to another we aren't allowed to justify aiding Ukraine against Russia for example, are these the forum rules?

You are welcome to talk about which countries you prefer.

You are welcome to discuss immigration policy and foreign aid, which aren't typically motivated by reductive beliefs of the sort you expressed.

I know that you would like millimeter level guidance as to exactly how far you can push the boundary on this topic, but I have neither the time nor the inclination. If this isn't enough guidance, then either err on the side of caution or find some other dark corner of the internet to discuss this topic.

Watch the soda consumption, Luciom ain't payin' for your health care no more!


What you clowns done with Bobo, then? Not like him to go AWOL for weeks on end. Is he in a suitcase somewhere because King Spew wanted the admin job?


He's unavoidably detained.

Good thing we are an autonomous collective.


has anyone seen bobo and browser in the same room at the same time before?

Oh, I've been clowning on him non-stop for years. I think I told him once I wouldn't piss on him if he was on fire, although I imagine the stuff that gets under his skin the most is when I remind everyone he's nowhere near as good at maths as he claims.

No idea what you did.


you i get, you're probably on a lot of kill lists

me, I'm just a soft and cuddly teddy bear and only lurked the strat threads during his greatest hits so wasn't live posting during brandy et al

but seriously, you should probably hedge a little and start making some phone calls


Good point, might need to give BJ a call. How does it work at the trailer park, do they have a main number that patches you through?


by washoe m

Hey lucky did u get your phone fixed,
Can u update us?

Yes Google reset my 2FA allowing me to get into everything, and I bought a ZTE blade for around $140 usd that seems nice-- just got screen glass for it yesterday so it's all official. No 5g capability for it unfortunately which doesn't matter in Colombia but will in US-- but it's a nice phone.

I'm in a place called Mesetas in the department of Meta-- rafting is the big draw here and there are some amazing canyons but I just got here yesterday. 3 more weeks in Colombia then back to US.


Awesome! Glad you got it working.
Interesting that you went the Google route. How long did it take them?
Any advice there how to get google to Do it?

Meta sounds like a nice place.

Meta has been nice. It's not really a part of the traditional tourist route in Colombia but tourism has been growing over the last few years. I'll still always prefer the mountains but the plains do have bigger rivers and the Spanish is a lot easier to understand for me than the Paisa accent which is the accent of Medellin/Antioquia.

It only took about a day-- I opened a case with google fi support and they were the one's who resolved it. I think i had not had an account with them or been paying for a google service then it would have been a lot more difficult because there didn't seem to be any sort of way to reach a real person through other mechanisms. Perhaps there is a play store support where if you have a subscription to some app that would work as well.


Oh cool. Thanks. Have you been to cali?
Thats where the cali cartel is from.
There are mountains imo but it might be dangerous there. Idk.

I haven't been since 2018 but yeah. I've heard it can be a bit sketchy but I was with a local.

why wouldn't you micturate on him if he was burning? i have no idea about the math stuff as i am a math tard myself but he doesnt seem to be a bad guy. maybe a little pervy but i can't hold that against the man.


by sublime m

You mean apart from the fact that he is a scumbag who persuaded a young troubled woman to commit suicide?

i knew of the hawbreaker girl ordeal but i have no idea he persuaded her to commit suicide.


by sublime m

Yeah, he literally told her to do it in an email. It's all well documented here, I'm sure you can find it.


by d2_e4 m

that is certainly an awful thing to say to someone like her.

also, i think you may be right that he cares more about his math reputation than "poker mentor" reputation.

Ironic really, since he doesn't even know enough about maths to understand how much he doesn't know.

Is it? Posts about it tend to get ghosted is my understanding.

Hi there!

Dont fret. If needs be then I'd be very happy to piss on you


by Trolly McTrollson m

It's been discussed ad nauseam, amongst other things there is definitely a thread about it in NVG from a few years back with links to / screenshots of the email in question. I'm sure you could find it in 5-10 minutes if you wanted to.
