Sleep is one of the greatest things in life. It comforts, soothes, revives. Consider the words of Shakespeare:

Shakespeare posted:

...the innocent sleep,
Sleep that knits up the ravell'd sleeve of care,
The death of each day's life, sore labour's bath,
Balm of hurt minds, great nature's second course,
Chief nourisher in life's feast

No matter who you are, sleep is a time to rest and restore. It is a blessing available to everyone, young and old, rich or poor.

But not The Fat.

You see, The Fat have forfeited the "balm of hurt minds." They have turned away from the path of health, and so God has visited upon them the curse of sleep apnea. Sleep is no longer rejuvinating for The Fat. It no longer soothes and comforts. It is but a shadowy parody of itself, much as The Fat are themselves grotesque distortions of human beings. And The Fat have no one to blame but themselves. They decided that Pop Tarts and regular Cokes were better than sleep. Better than sleep! Gentle posters, nothing is better than sleep. This mistake is the crowning one in the misguided lives of The Fat.

Thank you for reading.

I thought the post you quoted was funny, but while there's criticisms to be made about Black Moses's methods, the person 'bloodshit' (lol) is citing is a freep-level conspiracy theorist who believes the republican party has been overrun with 'cuckservatives.'

Like I said tho, the quote was funny ty for posting it.

There's a bevy of really weird posters who kinda follow BM around accusing him of all kinds of things. When I first saw the quote here I thought for a second that was leaking in here. All-Pro might have done the same.

The F-35 is like that scene in Robocop 2 where the first prototype pulls its own head off in horror and self-loathing, only instead of iterating on it with a better design they just keep re-attaching the head and booting it back up.

Here's the deal with my participation on this website going forward. I have now been banned twice for no apparent reason. The first time I was banned, the reason stated was because I was "arguing in bad faith". Now, I recall vividly the particular posts I had made which got me banned and I was being as genuine in my beliefs as I could be. I looked through the rules, and there is no rule pertaining to the entirely subjective charge of bad-faith arguing. I emailed the moderator who banned me and he flatly refused to give me any explanation for why I was banned.

Okay, so I didn't post immediately after the three weeks or so of the ban was up because I frankly had more productive and important things to do. A week or two ago I posted a SINGLE reply to the Climate Change thread which violated no rule, was entirely in line with the purpose of that thread, contained no foul language and I was almost immediately banned and no explanation was given. No reason was stated in the so-called "Leper's Colony". I emailed the moderator and was ignored. Furthermore, I was required to pay a $10 charge for un-banning my account. The only reason I paid this fee was because I make a good living and basically had money to burn. I wanted to vent my anger and address this perversion of justice. But, if anyone bans me again for an illegitimate reason and wants me to pay for the privilege of posting again, I won't do so. I will decide that this forum is absolutely inhospitable to non-leftist and libertarian opinions. I hope you are better than that.

The only conceivable reason for such a ban was that moderators don't want me posting in any other threads. Okay, come out and explicitly tell me that. Don't ban me for no stated reason and refuse to respond to emails.

The most frustrating thing about this recent episode was that I only said a very small fraction of what I had intended to say, dozens of people got to respond to my post with some surprisingly intelligent thoughts (in some cases) and I wasn't allowed to develop the conversion.

I will post in this thread and restrict my posting to only this thread if I get an agreement from the moderators to back off and allow me to state my opinions provided I don't break any stated rules. If there are any additional rules just especially for me, then explicitly tell me what you expect of me and I'll comply.

If someone shortly bans my account for no stated or rational reason, and furthermore asks me to pay AGAIN $10 for un-banning my account, I will go to my credit card company with a fraud charge and re-coup the $10 I just spent for the privilege of telling you how I feel about unfair moderating practices.

I'd like to get some resolution to this issue before I make any effort to debate political ideas.
