“He’s also opened the door to receive more bags of dicks”

“Militia leader Ammon Bundy and his rightwing followers, who have been stationed at the headquarters of the Malheur national wildlife refuge since 2 January, have used Facebook, YouTube and live-stream videos to get their message out directly to the public and to call on anti-government activists to support their cause.”

Amongst the messages came a resquest. You can watch Cobert to get a better understanding:

It looks like the people have responded:

The Oregon militia’s bizarre PR tactics – from dildos to Facebook videos

After that reaction video came out people are reacting over Twitter in a way that makes me suspect that many more crazy deliveries will happen:

There’s no arc to my story

This tech journalist decided to go one year without internet. The post is really interesting to read.

But I get the feeling he got zero answers out of the experience, his personal problems were the same with or without the internet. But that is just my view.

I embed the video bellow and machine transcribed a passage from someone he is asking advices about life to, that made a lot of sense to me:

As far as your life, giving you advice I think I started having more success when I stopped feeling like there was a narrative to my life. I think once you let go of that idea first of you stop seeing yourself as the most important thing in your narrative you know you see yourself as more of a component I don’t have, there’s no arc to my story there’s no like climax or anticlimax or … so trying to find where things connected or what made sense in my arc didn’t really make a lot of sense but once I let go of that because that was a big thing for me in high school and college But once I let go of that I started having more success or became happier
