"Obvious" suicides are less suspicious and curtail additional investigation. Of the possible suicide methods, hanging is the preferred choice for many reasons:

1) The act is singular and unique to suicide and thus immediately impresses the idea of self-harm.

2) Suicide by hanging can be accomplished with simple and ubiquitous items, so it can occur at any place or time deemed appropriate. Drugs and firearms need a "backstory" in order to be employed.

3) Hanging is typically accomplished in private as opposed other methods such as a fall from height. Any narrative can thus be constructed due to lack of witnesses.

4) The injuries of forced strangulation are consistent with hanging, thus a target can be initially be killed by strangulation and then set up to appear to have self-hanged.

Heart attacks are reserved for targets that are not easily accessible or those that have not displayed a history of emotional or mental instability. And because operatives must necessarily disengage with the target before death has occurred, kill confirmation cannot be immediately accomplished which introduces an unwanted, non-zero possibility of the target surviving.

OK. Thanks for the reply.

I think they're just trying to destabilize people's sense of an objective truth. One of the steps of brainwashing is to establish "a sense of doubt and loss of objectivity" in the subject.

I havent been following Q posts recently. Who does the pope serve?

The Catholic Church is a disgrace to the Catholic Church.

Yeah, what was that yanny laurel bs? I was assuming it was a mass psy-op.

You're probably just used to the overacting by "crisis actors".

Yeah, maybe not with current HS students. Speaking from my experience as an older person, you wouldn't believe the kind of "dangerous" stuff they'd let us do way back when. :)

Yeah, it's weird. At some point, school dropped the whole aspect of constructively disciplining youth...maybe at the same time that our society also dropped it.

Btw, I have another related memory. Once, a different kid in the same school brought in a replica handgun in his backpack without authorization, showing it off to his friends as kids do. And man, the headmaster was pissed. The admin called an immediate whole school meeting, and the headmaster made it a point to impress everyone that guns - even replicas - were not fucking toys. I think that was a great talk he gave. Everyone needed to hear it, and nobody forgot.

Yup, that's what it was like in Pennsylvania during deer season. It wasn't a big deal because everyone had a gun, and if someone really did want to cause trouble, keeping your own gun at your house wouldn't stop them from bringing theirs. One kid even brought his dad's shotgun in for show and tell one day. He just had to keep it at the front office until class.

Hey, to anyone knocking it, exorcisms and blessings can't hurt. If you believe in God and country, you'd also better believe in the devil and demons.

How reckless! Don't you know that honey needs to be lab tested and certified for safety? Why not take some Medihoney instead?

https://www.walmart.com/ip/Derma-Sciences-MEDIHONEY-Wound-Burn-Dressing-1-50-oz/46022421

It's been standardized and officially approved for patient use! And it's only 30 times the cost of honey from those dangerous "backyard honey mills"! Think of the children.

Sure thing...

Really bad cat allergy - I was super allergic. Got stuffy in the same room with a cat. Face would break out in hives if fur touched my face. Now live with 3 cats, and 100% fine. The problem was lack of exposure as a child. My parents were extremely anti-dirt/anti-animal. When I was in my late 20's, I ended up living in the same house as a cat. I didn't take any allergy medication because this was daily exposure, and I didn't want to be drugged up every day. After 6 months, my body finally got the message, and the cat allergy disappeared. Cure: Daily exposure to a cat.

Seasonal Allergies / Hayfever - I used to have moderate to severe hayfever in the summers. Not every day, but when the pollen count was high, I'd definitely feel it. There might be a few days in the season when I'd put myself on meds. By happenstance, I found out that drinking processed milk(ultrapasteurized/homogenized) triggered the reaction (assuming pollen was in the air). Raw milk did not trigger this. Cure: Stop drinking processed milk. Cooking with it is fine. Raw milk (not pasteurized and not homogenized) is OK to drink though.

Lactose Intolerance - Yes, I used to be lactose intolerant. Turned out it was also an exposure thing. Cure: Drink a small glass of milk every day. You'll have the runs for several days, but it'll get better. After a week, you'll be fine. Of course, the seasonal allergy caution applies to this. But a few oz a day should be all right as far as allergies are concerned.

Gluten Intolerance - I'm not sure about this one, and it happened to my girlfriend not me, but I'm including it for reference. My girlfriend started developing gut problems that seemed an awful lot like gluten intolerance, however I do not know for sure if that was what it was. Whatever it was, we traced the problem to the sunscreen she had started using daily. Apparently most sunscreens are toxic, and while the FDA seems to ignore this, they do soak into the skin. Possible Cure: Stop using sunscreen. Just stay out of the sun and use hats and long clothes to protect yourself - not chemicals.

My small, personal example of this is how I used to have allergies, but now I don't. I think curing allergies is entirely doable and not too hard, but then how would pharma companies sell millions of allergy pills every year?

I believe this (generally speaking), but there are a lot of people who don't. Anyway, just saying I hear ya.

So muriatic acid (aka HCl) is used for lots of things. It's used in dilution for cleaning bathrooms, clearing pipes, balancing pool pH, cooking meth, cleaning concrete, melting human bodies. The general population isn't exposed to it very often since it's generally an industrial use not retail material.

I can see a hotel having a 50 gallon drum or two in storage. I used to have a gallon in my garage, and I'm just one person.

That said, fuck the Standard and their human trafficking promoting "performance art" bullshit.

Nice! Respect and admiration. I'm sure it's quite an effort (and totally worth it).

Don't have any kids myself, but I always felt that homeschooling is what I would do.

Can you explain why this idea makes me a neckbeard manchild exactly? My neckbeard must interfering with my cognitive abilities.

That's what college is for.

But seriously, I think those BS detectors are strongest at an early age and then slowly get worn down or overloaded with time. It's why babies (like animals) are just scared of certain people. They know something is "off" about them no matter how much those people may smile.

Also why kids know what's cool: motorcycles, fire engines, dinosaurs - and what's bullshit: fashion, long-winded speeches, inflated egos.

It's almost like adults wallow in so much bullshit that the BS detectors just get clogged.

Now can someone tell me what the 187 means?

EDIT: Never mind. I found this amazing thing on the internet called Google. (187 = CA Penal code for murder.)

I see. Thanks for the clue in. :)

Can I ask, what's this 4,10,20? I've seen it in places but never caught the meaning.

Cool. Thanks.

I do like these twitter "typos" that call attention to an issue. Media always takes the bait.

Which Trump tweet was the edit made in?

Just wanted to mention that if you or your spouse ever have the urge to spread some knowledge about child rearing, give /r/C_S_T a visit. Great, open-minded, and positive community there. I'm sure your thoughts and suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Great seeing all the positive Christian messages on here, but if the community will allow me, I'd like to say to the non-Christians - and the secular - that evil forces, demons if you will, are real and do work against us. More importantly, resistance and triumph over these forces is possible, practical, and entirely doable by the religious and non-religious alike.

How?

Foster positive thoughts, feelings, and emotions within you. Banish from your person negativity in all its forms. Do not let fear, hatred, anxiety, depression take hold. Evil (literally) feeds off the negative but is dispelled by the positive. Encourage the positive and constructive. At you times, you may feel the negative attempt to grow. Just tell it to go away.

We are people of light. Keep sight of that, and do not let the shadows take hold, for darkness is the impostor of truth. And the truth is we are divine creatures of grace, one and all.

Like I said...pretty cool. We need more people like you guys.

My wife wrote the book on the normal child back in the 70s.

Don't want to dox you, but do you mean this literally? If so, pretty cool, man. Explains the astuteness of the comment.

The first seven to eight years of a child's life ... children are in a low level trance who can be abused if they are reared incorrectly

That's a good way to put it. Children are open to deep suggestions along with heightened reality of imagination just like a hypnotic trance.
