Mine is the chain style. I cannot compare as I have never used the braided wire and I don’t have to think about weight savings that much. I don’t generally hike far to a camping spot.

Instead of a curved folding saw I prefer a rope saw. I’ve always been able to take down limbs and trees faster.

For those that don’t know what that is, imagine a chainsaw chain with handles on either end.

It’s ok, friend. I like that your mere presence refutes your own argument and that your attitude shows the kind of things you generally get banned from instances for.

So how old is your account? A day? You sure showed me! You’re doing great, buddy!

Yet here you are. You must be stealthier than the others. Don’t worry, I won’t tell them you’re here.

The great majority of those people aren’t on here talking about it anymore.

We’re on the same side, we just vehemently disagree on methods. They’re already using that shit against the people I care about. I’ve gotten in actual fights with people talking shit about women, LGBT folks, and, in one case where I got locked up, a guy with a speech impediment because someone thought he was the r-word. It’s been a while because I tend not to be that violent anymore, but I’m fucking tired. Ain’t none of this other shit working.

You know what, I’m sorry too. I know we’re on the same side but I came at you in a shitty way. It’s something I’m working on, but I’m not in a great place lately. Thank you for coming at me a different way so I could see how shitty I was being. We can disagree on this and still fight for the same things.

If mother fuckers ain’t checking their work that’s their own fucking fault. Notice I haven’t put that address anywhere because I haven’t personally confirmed it. I also didn’t participate in the Boston bombing thing on the other site because there was too damn much uncertainty. Not that I owe someone making sure Nick Fuentes is comfortable an explanation.

It’s going to get turned on the vulnerable whether I do anything or not. It already has been in several cases without my involvement.

So you keep being the good guy. I’m going to be a shit bag.

Who is “us”? I’m not here to be a good guy. I’m here to live my life on my terms without interference and help others do the same. Notice that nowhere in that sentence did I say “Make racists comfortable and happy” or “Snuggle up to a smarmy pile of garbage who trolls women”.

I’m not a good guy. I’m not a nice guy. I’m not the tolerant left. I’m pissed the fuck off and I’m not above doxxing a stupid cunt obliquely threatening rape or punching a Nazi. You can whisper your mean words about them into your pillow or whatever you think will make them stop and I support your right to do so. But that ain’t me.

Nah, I’m just skewing the average.

I’ll make a deal with you. I’ll be totally ok with it if I start actively harming women by insinuating I own them and you doxx me for that so that women can come tell me how I’ve harmed them. If I spout white supremacist drivel I want you to punch me until I stop. If I make thinly veiled rape threats I want you to kill me.

Since I want that to happen to me, I can go ahead and do what I want, right?

My reaction was “not my dick, not my problem”.

Also grew up poor. I know exactly how you feel. I don’t have a partner and kids to take care of and I make good money in tech. I’ve shoved enough back to retire early (theoretically, I guess we’ll see) and now I’m out here with no car payment, a mostly paid off mortgage, and I’m spending too much on hobbies.

It’s still wild to me.

Trans people existing is hard left, as is keeping women healthy and alive.

We have the data. Trust me. I’m from social media.

Been using Thunderbird for almost 20 years. It was good enough that long ago and it’s pretty awesome these days.

I don’t think nicotine is overplayed, I think that is a sliding scale on how it affects you.

To be fair, I feel exactly like you. I quit smoking a couple of years ago. It was never the nicotine for me. It was the breaks, the ritual, and something to do with my hands. The more anxiety I felt, the more ritual I’d use. So if I just wanted a break I’d light up and smoke. But if shit went down I’d light up with a match and be very deliberate with my inhaling and breathing.

I still miss it. I wish I had something half as calming to replace it. But I still think a lot of folks have a serious issue with physical addiction to nicotine.

What are you talking about? I said it had no bearing on what you were saying. Why are you feeling so defensive about something that I went out of the way to make sure to say wasn’t connected to what you said at all?
