Gratitude
My most recent account on CD (Mingiwuwu) is not only not banned but every single person who has seeked to abuse me long-term from FactMachine to Brontoraptor has ended up being banned themselves and fucked up again and again. I am so thankful for this, no joke, and this is something I gained due to the harsh life I had early on in my online life and mistakes that God guided me through with clues and such. I have direct contact to alien demigods but it's much more one-way than two-way contact (they contact me never replying to me or caring what I say to them too much although they do indirectly reply at times). They helped me learn strategy, exactly how much to get provoked and how much to ignore to maintain a dominant relationship with my inferiors without totally being unapproached by them. Even to this day, without being the notorious guy who found ways to discipline the scum like back in my Prodigee and later Instig8or days, I am a legend here. People make threads about me, love talking to and about me because I get them. Even FM enjoys me here in his own antisocial, manic and belligerent way. I am a legend here and a positive force to the site, fucking up all the negative ones helping people from the site find better debate communities without betraying this community and without bypassing Andy. I learned my lessons, I have evolved and I am great at what I do. I am thankful for that among so many, many, many other things in life outside of CD. :) PHEW so much!!! My health, such as it is. My family, friends, faith, going to say family again because yeah I love it. Also, getting more personal, my daughter is passing milestones we didn't think she would. Sure she's behind but she's doing things now that most kids her age do and it's glorious to see all of our hard work, sweat and tears, pay off. How about you? I won’t discuss personal matters, though there’s plenty to be grateful for. I like to consider things we often take for granted. There are things that we have now that were unimaginable long ago and not so long ago. Free and cheap Clean water (daily clean water bathing is a luxury) Food production Technology creates abundance Logistics advancements provide exotic food choices Vaccines (anti-vaccers are creating mini epidemics) Modern Insulation Motor vehicle technology is incredible Digital Music availability The current popularity of craft beer Assorted domestic pets Flight The list goes on and on. We live beyond the dreams of most of histories kings. |
