Ninjas and pirates are fine, l2p.

[Max White]

Pfft, says the guy that plays as Jedi. What is that, a spell caster with a bajillion awesome at will powers, including buffs to already epic agility, and flawless hand to hand combat? You don't know  how good you have it!

Wrong character.

[RedKing]

I had a character on Champions Online named Zombie Robot Ninja Pirate. His character design was...well, what it says on the label. And his powersets were sort of random picks based on what fit the theme. He turned out to be one of my most badass characters.

Cataclysm's old forums. It has been overrun by pornobots. Not good porn, beastiality. And I think there was also 1 child porn bot.

DAMN YOU SPAMBOTS! DAMN YOU TO 4CHAN!


On a more serious note, shit went down and I can no longer talk to DrPoo.

Woke up this morning and realized that the thing I wanted to prove is probably already completely known.  I know that at least part of it is already well-known, thanks to some honors classes I took a while ago, which used subtypes of the theorem I would have investigated.

Oh, well.  I don't know, so I'll just keep thinking.

[Rose]

that's vector, not happy till she's solved a problem that's been keeping the entire matematical community scratching their heads for centuries.

The way I'm going to have to investigate this now will involve a lot more category theory, which doesn't exactly make me happy.

On the other hand, I now have an excuse to study math, which is awesome.  BRB, finishing Infinite Jest >_>

The fastest kid on my cross country team didn't know he was signed up for Independent P.E., and is now failing it. He can't run next week. Next week we run against the only other team in the league that can beat us.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-

Cataclysm's old forums. It has been overrun by pornobots. Not good porn, beastiality. And I think there was also 1 child porn bot.

Count yourself lucky that there was only one. There were several homebrew and console hacking forums that I used to infrequently visit, (as well as a number of adult boards) that went down from being flooded with the things, because the admins couldn't filter them out fast enough, and the sites were based in the US. Nobody wants the FBI to visit.

Severe lack of happy:

So I'm really not in a position to adopt or otherwise assume custody of this kid. Talking with her father was, predictably, fruitless. He wasted my time talking about ranting and frothing how the country is going to hell from overspending while thrusting the burden and cost of caring for his own daughter on the state solely because she is gay.... I can't take care of his kid; he can but won't take care of his kid. This means the state will probably end up doing it unless someone can locate relatives willing to take her in.... She's actually an exceptionally nice person and we've been doing some light hanging out while she puts in some calls to other family (some of which have not been productive at all). Clearly, our arrangement has to end very shortly and she realizes that she is only with me for the moment due to favors I pulled with particularly nice and overworked social workers. She still wants to believe her father will take her back, but knows better. I've moved on from the desire to murder him to the desire to see if I can pull to have him criminally charged, but both these desires are tempered by the fact that he is his household's sole breadwinner and the other members will suffer if he is prosecuted. Part of me is glad that it really isn't my choice whether or not to have him criminally charged (I don't work for the state). In the meantime, I will help clean up the fucking mess you've made sir....

So looks like she's going to face this and she's looking at a rough way of it through foster care. I'm not an adoption placement agency or her GAL, but it's possible I might be able to wrangle up a private adoption. That said, Ohio's laws about gays adopting aren't the worst in the country but unofficially they strangely frown upon it even when the parents and the kid are all gay.

Currently overworked, underpaid, and without any time for this. I'll reiterate in summation how I think this country's treatment of its gays, children or otherwise, is unconscionably monstrous and leave it at that.

I recently answered a request for advice from a younger user on this form who seriously thinks they are transsexual with, "anything you get from me will be cynical and perhaps somewhat paranoid," and what basically adds up to, "I'm far too vengeful to be a good role model." Both true, and so far as I'm concerned, both entirely and unconditionally justified.

Hurgh, Can't sleep.

Pretty much, yeah. Good luck to... well, pretty much everyone who's being shat on for being honest.

I've been thinking about your predicament, Truean.  Thanks for the update.  Hoping for the best outcome for both of you.

Indeedy. I hope Truean gets some peace and freaking quiet without something horrible happening soon. I don't know how she doesn't wind up facepunching someone out of sheer rage buildup.
