on taking nancy grace seriously

ok. hold on. why are so many people entertaining the delusion that she (or the anti-pot guy) have any intent whatsoever to win a reasoned debate? this is propaganda designed with the purposes of social engineering a population into an officially approved "good worker" lifestyle. she seems to be completely aware that she's full of shit, and doesn't have the slightest amount of interest in whether she is or not. she's getting paid to push a point by all means possible, not to come to some kind of understanding of what is "true".
calling her a moron is consequently missing the full context. what she is is diabolically evil and interested in nothing more than her own career trajectory.

If you really believe she's consciously inventing this persona or argument for some grand scheme and not because she's just wrong you seriously need professional help.

these demagogues operate under a type of nihilist reasoning that goes something along the lines of "it doesn't matter if what i say is actually true, what matters is if i can convince you it's true".
...and understanding that this is how they think and act is a pre-requisite to stopping them. so pass it on.

it seems like the guy upstairs has moved to the third floor. which has some short-term benefits. i think i'm now free to make smoothies between 11:00 PM and 8:00 AM. not that i wasn't before, but it's common courtesy to keep that kind of noise down. generally speaking, the larger noise buffer is sort of relieving.
nobody has said anything to me about noise, and i don't think that was the cause for the move. rather, i think the recent cold snap produced an evacuation.
personally, i saw it coming and prepared by cranking the heat a few days in advance. when the wind was blowing around out there near -50, the thermostat in my room was a hair under 24 degrees celsius; it was admittedly not able to hold itself there, and the temperature on the thermostat doesn't actually reflect the temperature in the room (which was more like 18 or 19) but the apartment was comfortable.
i realize, though, that it could have been very uncomfortable down here if i just let it sit at 20, oblivious to what was happening outside. i suspect that's why the guy upstairs retreated to safer ground.
which would be fine.
....'cept that the heat seems to now be off, altogether, upstairs. i'm a little worried, but at the same time the mild breeze is actually sort of refreshing. in addition to that meaning i'm going to have to boost my heat a bit, which is a mild adjustment if an adjustment ever was mild, i'm not entirely sure the plan was thought out; part of the reason it's hottest upstairs is that it's being heated by the two levels below it!
so, the end result is we both end up turning the heat up higher and neither is as warm as we were before. i can live through that, but i'm wondering just how bad an idea it is to let the wood floors freeze...
anyways, i think it'll be fine. my guess is that the heat comes back on up there in a day or two when the temperature falls. if not, i'll have to explain the situation, and i'm sure it'll get turned back on. really, i'm just becoming more and more intrigued by my landlord's family....
