My response as I would usually go on long winded would be off track of the thread topic. But I want to know why the âforciblyâ caveat? edit: because my family pays over $500 usd a month for health insurance thru work and practically nothing is covered & I canât afford all the tests & procedures my condition requires. I spent over two years bouncing between neurologists, internists, radiologists & therapists being misdiagnosed before finally being given a correct diagnosis. Thousands of dollars gone. With chronic neurological pain (I have fluid on my brain) & other issues I am all for socialized medical care.

Thank you Velk.

https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/the-human-beast/202007/why-do-many-poor-people-vote-republican A lot of it, especially in my state has to do with religion & reproductive rights. Even tho they vote against their overall best interests, there are specific issues here & voters wonât be swayed.

Those are screenshots I took from scrolling thru a thread in June 2020 regarding BLM & Juneteenth. They are of my comments in the thread. The 1st screenshot is of a comment I had made that included a screenshot from The Tulsa World (newspaper) discussing the arrest of a Tulsa Public School teacher protesting during Trumpâs re-election rally here. The 3rd is a comment I made discussing a gun rights advocate & police trainer Velk was holding up as an authority to be trusted- the website called insider quoted this person talking about how âyouâ become used to shooting & killing people, & how great sex is after killing a human. The 2nd screenshot is a comment I made about my grandfathers military unit participating in the liberation of a Nazi death camp. The last screenshot was my response to an image someone had posted depicting a white male holding a sign acknowledging the wrongness of his previous mindsets in regards to race relations. Each of my screenshots shows Velk loling as a reaction to my posts- ones talking about murder- was simply refreshing his memory since he claims he didnât do exactly that.

I remember you laughing quite a bit during a thread during a really stressful period last year. Not just at my posts, but others too. I mean you laughed at a post where I discussed the liberation of Dachau. If thatâs not trolling I donât know what is. Or maybe you figured my posts were âBSâ like the media (as you say) & just clicked a reaction without reading. Who knows. (just a fewTo refresh your memory):

When my hubby & I got together 20+ years ago, I had a college education, he at that time did not. I had sales, customer service & retention experience in a call center environment. He had experience working in a cell phone kiosk at a big box store. We were hired to the same company for the same job thru a staffing firm. (We knew each other & were together prior). The job was selling insurance policies & servicing claims for over the road commercial truck drivers. I think he was hired on at more than $2.00 an hour more than me. Same positions & I had equal to or more experience. đ¤ˇââď¸. The work environment sucked & one day we went to lunch & didnât return. Aaaah to be 23, ignorant, & stupidly carefree.

Well, I was wondering when you would grace me with a snarky comment & laughing emoji. Itâs been a hot minute since you previously went out of your way to do so on every single one of my posts. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2019/may/20/rich-white-men-rule-america-minority-rule https://www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-courts-white-male-judges_n_5cb61c86e4b0ffefe3b835a6 https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2021/08/january-6-minimizers/619634/ https://www.opendemocracy.net/en/opendemocracyuk/three-ways-to-stop-global-economic-system-working-only-for-rich-white-men/ https://www.harpersbazaar.com/uk/culture/a35379486/why-does-the-world-reward-mediocre-white-men/ I could continue to google, copy & paste links, but I know itâs a wasted effort âmateâ.

What has SL taught you about the world?
Pixie Kobichenko replied to Alma Palmira's topic in General Discussion Forum
The author of the book the movie is based on spent a lot of time in SL. https://nwn.blogs.com/nwn/2012/10/ready-player-one-oases-in-second-life.html -

I think with anything quotable, the relatability of a line differs from person to person & the miles theyâve walked & things theyâve seen. It is a really good show. -
What has SL taught you about the world?
Pixie Kobichenko replied to Alma Palmira's topic in General Discussion Forum
Directly from my profile tab â1 rule to SLâ: "Don't forget your ABCs: Assume nothing; Believe no-one; Check everything. And never take your eye off the bigger picture." -DCI John Barnaby, Midsomer Murders. Jaded, sad, hinging on misanthropic. But Iâve encountered several situations & individuals that I am very grateful I do not have to deal with in my everyday life. With the exception of someone I dated in RL who turned out to be the most horrific sort of monster, thereâs lots of really rotten apples drawn to SL. Thankfully there are beautiful souls as well. But Iâve learned to be most cautious. -
What are you watching today?
Pixie Kobichenko replied to Garnet Psaltery's topic in General Discussion Forum
I love bird & squirrel watching. Iâve not had a backyard since having to move across the state for work in 2015. We are on course to move back to the area we consider âhomeâ in the spring & a prerequisite is a fenced yard with trees so my Boston Terriers can play off leash & I can get back to bird & squirrel watching. This is from the last home I had a backyard in: -

To be clear, I think sometimes some folks might knee jerk nitpick Prokofyâs posts out of habit. (Not saying that Sam did). I have to agree that I donât understand what this sentence means as a lead in means or how it equates to attached-difficult-to-catch-or-see-around tip jars above an avatars head.

Pixie Kobichenko replied to Garnet Psaltery's topic in General Discussion Forum
I watched something a few weeks back about the polytheistic practices of the ancient Jews. That sort of thing I donât necessarily understand but find interesting to read about. I think I went down that rabbit hole after watching Raiders of the Lost Ark for the billionth time. Somehow I went from asking google âwhat parts of Raiders has any truth to the ark storyâ to that topic. đ -

Pixie Kobichenko replied to Garnet Psaltery's topic in General Discussion Forum
Oh I know how it goes. For 3 years I didnât get any Viacom channels (mtv, vh1, Nickelodeon, tv land or AMC *which meant 3 years w/o the walking dead). HBO just came back now after over a year of contract disputes. It is really good- itâs a different take on the character & deals with a lot of the backwards mindsets of the time, along with being more progressive with casting & character biographies. I never saw the most of the Americans. For some reason we stopped watching during season 3. I need to finish that one day. Matthew Rhys was especially good in the Mr. Rogers biography âA beautiful day in the neighborhood.â I bawled my way thru it. -

Has it finally turned into heat advisory 100+ days where you are? Hiding from the heat? Are you looking for a show to binge this weekend? Iâm still weeding thru all the things I missed out on while HBO wasnât available on my cable provider. -I was really excited to finally see the Watchmen series this week but I just didnât make it thru all of episode 2. Watched a few more movies- JoJo Rabbit (Wow!), Inheritance (meh), WW1984 (eh), Birds of Prey (also eh). Episode 1 of season 1 of Doom Patrol was awesome, but the rest of it has to be watched thru the HBO app & my almost 10 year old tv with a still really just fine picture canât add apps so Iâll have to squint at the show on my iPad. Sooooo today I started the reboot-origin story of Perry Mason. Itâs so freaking good! Iâm a tv mystery fan (matlock, Colombo, psych, monk & others) & watched plenty of the original & 90s Mason show over the years. This has that HBO dark grit to it. Itâs like Hitchcock on steroids. Itâs certainly not for kids, but if you are familiar with HBO you wonât be shocked. Anyhoo, yes. đ make some đż & get comfy on the sofa! -
You put in a mesh avatar (Greg). When you did that, included in those items was an alpha layer. Itâs what is making your âsystemâ body invisible. Take that item off thru inventory & youâll see your system body again.

New Gacha Policy Discussion
Pixie Kobichenko replied to Linden Lab's topic in General Discussion Forum
I always explained-equated gachas to a bubble gum machine. You know for a quarter you will get a gum ball, but not the color-flavor. I never felt it was gambling because gambling involves risk of loosing money, where as you get a prize every try with gachas. I know my opinion is my own & that there must be reasons the decision was made. Just =/ to see theyâll be gone. -

DISH network got HBO back this past week so Iâve been binging everything new that they have the rights to that I havenât seen yet. Right now Underwater (itâs like Alien under the ocean). Yesterday I watched Keanu Reeves in Replicas & Vince Vaughn in Freaky, & the day before rewatched Annabelle & Dr. Sleep. -
How can i get my old posts deleted here?
Pixie Kobichenko replied to MikeGarthLeDouxJoel's topic in General Discussion Forum
The thread he is referring to was locked in 2018 by a Linden who I think OP messaged after I mentioned reporting that thread to see if it can be deleted. He says after that he reported it yesterday he also messaged the Linden who locked it way back in 2018. -

Well your only available option is to report your thread you created (3 years ago & thus buried so far back the chances of it being dug up were minor) to the Lab on the original post. But now that youâve asked I dare say Iâm not the only one who was-will be curious what you wanted deleted & go take a peek, thereby drawing attention to it. đ¤ˇââď¸
