for an architecture school project i pretended we needed to mandate that all floors have a 4% slope
(the unevenness would stimulate bloodflow, cognitive function, awareness of surroundings to facilitate the beneficence of architecture, other bs)
the profs f-cking loved it
i'm a barbie jet
a barbie wartime threat
get a dose of
bombs, explosive
u can try to hide
but soon u'll find u've died
annihilation
brought by aviation
(c'mon barbie hit their arty)
make me turn
afterburn
strike whatever u please
air-to-ground
air-to-air
even boats on the seas
so, recently got dumped (yay, whatever). reasons given were that i was 'intimidatingly intelligent' & my higher sex drive made them feel insecure
now wondering what the real reason was if they had to sugarcoat it w that much hokum!
@tracewoodgrains
yeesh. limerick?
so bryan is claiming that trace
forgot there's two sides to his case,
but documentation
of fraught arbitration
is really quite hard to erase!
@Neoman71002468
well, i was initially merely suggesting thru an anecdote that arch profs can endorse suboptimal building regs.
you've convinced me tho. i'll say it: mandating bedroom windows is comparable to mandating sloped floors. indeed. for sure.
@WhoresofYore
hmm. a limerick?
there once was a woman from leeds
who wanted to fondle the reeds,
and if she were pressed
on why she's undressed,
she'd likely respond 'i have needs!'
so i recently got dumped in f-cking semaphore
like they literally sent a video of them using the flags to spell out that it's over. still too gobsmacked to figure out how i feel about this
@Devon_Eriksen_
fine, fine:
there's re-distributionist schmalz,
but implementation appalls!
as public choice theory
might seem rather dreary
whenever utopia calls!
also:
recent discourse reminds me of when i hosted dinner parties & guests would occasionally pontificate about some grand new law/tax/project the government should do
laconic military ex would casually ask 'so who exactly do you want me to shoot this time?'
was a good bit!
scenario: someone is robbing you. you have a loaded pistol. what $ amount of stolen property (to include for example your e-bike, your computers, your other guns, your car, etc) exceeds the value of their life as far as you're concerned?

@PstafarianPrice
annals of unsuccessful tinder dates:
me: 'so how would you feel if i didn't ask you how you'd feel if you'd skipped breakfast?'
them: 'ha! i know this one! i'd feel hungry!'
my dating take is that folks should continue to emphasize height, weight, salary, & age before all else in order to continue creating wonderful arbitrage opportunities for me!
so leftie friend married a foreigner & it has been rather fascinating watching them become increasingly libertarian due to their travails with customs & immigration!

there once was a guy who's a switch
at times, he's his girlboss's bitch;
at times, he's a chad

'so men are the reason you've spent
so much of your paycheck on rent!
demand and supply
just do not apply!
i'd rather be mad at a gent!'
can we just get rid of a little zoning (as a treat) before we get into all the culture war gender shit?
reminds me of back in 4th grade religion class when i asked why we did inefficient mass-based eucharist when we could install a priest at the wonderbread factory to consecrate every departing truckload
@ccsrevenge
lmao. architecture studio f-cked with my circadian rhythm far far more than renting a closet ever did!
i'd happily save money on rent & blackout curtains! hell, even without the money considerations, the opportunity to say 'gfy' to overburdensome regulators is quite valuable!

limerick?
folks ask where spent fuel should be placed;
it seems it is safely encased!
perhaps our immunity

is there an offensive EA movement? whats the most high-impact cost-effective way to murderface the AMA? how do i efficiently lower the quality of life of turbotax lobbyists? how do i make 1 fda bureaucrat regret their life for <$3k?
(ie how do i productively channel my sadism?)
there once was a lawyer, delgado.
who tweeted with haughty bravado:
'i'm sorry you feel
your 'harvard' was real;
you bought it with petty bourgeois dough!'
so people that have just had kids, like how do you do it?
like how do you go from pantslessly belting out dj assault songs while tipsy on wild turkey at 10 in the morning to being like a dignified parental authority figure?
@FreqzBAN
i think i replied something about how we already mandat steeper slopes at access points.
shoulda tried something like 'the induced turning can lead to sudden, spontaneous Encounters with the Space and Form amplifying the Impact of built environment'
@CadeMetz
a limerick:
'scott wrote about murray i hear
this makes him a racist it's clear!
and not just him, heck,
all people in tech!
our narrative isn't a smear!'
person allegedly expressing sympathy & understanding telling me that i should feel super traumatized by some past events and now i'm kinda doubting they have my best interests at heart
@Devon_Eriksen_
hmm. limerick?
'upon observation, the gist
is mark simply doesn't exist!
it's all obfuscation
to form a negation
of thought so that folks don't get pissed!'
my partner was a communist
loved marxist dialectic
thought my job and savings
both oppressive and pathetic
i told them once that lube
was the opiate of the asses
and in bed we reenacted
the war between the classes
i knew a guy that secretly bribed a jewelry store to pretend to charge him $15k when he & his gf went ring shopping
he ended up spending just a few hundred on a big cubic zirconia ring & she still has no idea as far as i know

oo! limerick form!
some men want romantic relations
with partners without medications;
they also refuse
the chicks with tattoos:
save time through explicit filtrations!
there's much speculation as to what happened in 1970s to decouple earnings & productivity. some blame energy policy & others point to lingering bad vibes from the carter admin. but more discerning readers might note how 1971 was our last peak % smoker before a steady decline

embarrassed she was
she'll only do anal you see
childhood friend kvetching that the picturesque small town has become unaffordable & taken over by rich california escapees
since building more housing is an obvious political non-starter, we clearly need to lobby for a toxic waste dump on main street so rents stay reasonable
so while working as a barista it wasn't uncommon for dudes to leave a note with their number on the receipt
very flattering of course, but did they really think i'd go for a low-t endocrinologically discombobulated receipt-toucher?
when I lived in NYC a man once dropped a handwritten “you’re beautiful” note with his number on my bread plate while I was having lunch… reader, I called him
kinda wish people put their student loan debt figures in their tinder profiles
it's a much more accurate (& legible! & quantifiable!) signal of their wealth, tractibility, & submissiveness than 'loves to travel!', 'omg doggos!', and all the usual shit
Communist party-controlled social media app TikTok has instituted a crackdown on content celebrating weight loss achieved with miracle drugs like Ozempic.
@Aella_Girl
in limerick form?
a primary partner or bride
and plenty of sex on the side!
despite this she's still
like perfectly chill
with trysts that he won't need to hide!
so a guy just made use of a transparently flimsy excuse in order to initiate chatting me up
unfortunately i am obligated to honor it as i used the very same flimsy bullshit to chat up a girl just last week

'to act on romantic intent,
it's best to ensure there's consent!
but eating & killing?
they need not be willing!

@MsMelChen
@IonaItalia
a limerick?
perhaps it's the fans celebration?
perhaps 'twas that bad conflagration?
perhaps folks just got
fed up with their lot?
but all can oppose subjugation!

i mean, i used to put junk mail into the envelopes that came with other junk mail and sending it off when i was little. i like the idea of expanding the concept to service industries.

apparently aella now thinks
they banned her for survey-type links!
bureaucratization
& risk mitigation
will now be policing your kinks!
considering my own set-up:
>beans from 3 continents
>grinder from australia
>machine from italy
>glassware from korea
with every sip the power of capitalism & global logistics flows through me. i suckle at the teats of prosperity & growth and nothing is more scrumptious.

hmm. won't comment due to recent vow of silence w/r/t dating discourse, but synthesized into limerick form?
so women's embitterment could

some men are defining
themselves thru their whining;
they oughta touch grass & git gud
boss got the team together: 'look our section can't afford to look bad in this bullshit metric. i need you to ensure that we don't come in last, alright?'
and apparently i'm the only one that understands that he wants us to sabotage other sections smdh

limerick?
'the people here oughta beware
