@packetcat you listened to BERWYN?

Defeated By Churros

i solved a very difficult programming problem and want praise but frankly the problem is ridiculous my solution is also ridiculous and also probably nobody i know could even understand it or why it was so challenging so

@packetcat but like, a break-action rifle is fine. get rid of magazines, get rid of handhelds, nobody needs that shit. you want to take a classic break-action or lever-action rifle or shotgun out to the range, good for you. that’s closer to a bow and arrow than it is the shit cops are walking around with these days

@packetcat i sympathize but the issue with this is that people kill themselves a lot more and a lot easier when guns are in the picture. it shouldn’t be that easy to take your own life. and a lot of the people who need self-defence the most are also ones dealing with a lot of shit and trauma that makes mental illness that much worse. (and guns are really not that useful in close quarters anyway…)

the bigger issue is we need to demilitarize the police. cops shouldn’t have guns either. until we have that nobody is going to feel safe

@packetcat honesty i’m only on fedi to reply to folks; if i have a take, i just put it on my blog

if that means people clicking on my profile mostly just see random no-context posts and tiny ramblings, whatever, i’m not trying to build a brand

but i think the situation is people join fedi and only follow people who look “interesting”, and they don’t realize it’s the random normal people with impenetrable timelines who are actually having all the real conversations behind the scenes
