Candlelight Vigil for Zombie, Timmy, and the Rest + Spot's great adventure and what's K up to?

Missed this while I was at work, but Doc beat me to it.

Paladin was always good at saying a whole lot of nothing and leaning in on his pure logic schtick, but the only hard stance I can remember outta him is his refusal to use any trans person's pronouns because he thought the left was out to throw people in prison behind it

So anyone heard anything? Are they dead yet?

sadly, no. all are accounted for except zombie. I'm not sure proof of life matters in his case.

Over a month since Zombie last logged in now.

Regardless of his views on anything, I hope that he's not caught the virus. It's been over a month since two of my coworkers contracted the disease, and they haven't returned. I have no idea of how they're doing, but I can't imagine that they're well.

Agreed. It's way too easy to get into the idea that someone "deserves" something or other. Nobody "deserves" to get this shit. I'm more than happy to leave the decision on who deserves what to a higher power, if there is one.

I'll put an outside bet on Zombie letting us think he's dead, then showing up on Storm's podcast.

I'll take that bet, for our disagreements he's never seemed to the type to get onboard that kind of train.

Eh, I'm hard-pressed to imagine what horrors Zombie wouldn't embrace or defend for the sake of partisanship.

@Zombie's an ornery cuss, but he can hold his own instead of hiding under the Ignore bed.

Please be okay!

Tyrion Lannister was based after oldfella, asycritus and garamet!

Uh oh, don't tell WAB this!

Sorry, some people most definitely do. If they don't heed common sense and sound medical advice, too fucking bad for them. It's just unfortunate that they'll likely murder a few more people before they check out because of their stupidity.

This is a global pandemic.

Get on board with helping humanity or GTFO.

Too late!

Zombie is a prison guard in Florida, isn't he? Prisons and Florida have been hit particularly hard with COVID-19 infections. I wouldn't be surprised if he caught something.

I'm hoping it's just that he's exhausted and using every spare minute to get some kip. Every time @spot261 disappears for a few days that seems to be the reason. That and copious amounts of alcohol.

Hopefully he's just really busy.

Don't forget his refusal to ever take a reusable bag into a store, preferring to pay every time to own the libs.

@Zombie @Paladin @Tuttle @oldfella1962 @Marso @Volpone every morning:

Okay, today is the day I return to wordforge to pawn those commies, Haha!

*opens browser, news site loads*

Oh. Oh no... never mind. Forgot I was really busy.

I mean the news is not in Trump's favor and probably won't be for the foreseeable future. I saw that he was trying to brag about catching some MS-13 members. Big whoop, someone else will quickly take their place. End the war on drugs and I'll happily cheer for you.

Reusable bags are banned thanks to COVID. Not that I’ve gone in a store since March.

Should someone make an official thread for @Zombie ?

I think it is pretty obvious that something severe has happened to him. I don't think he would be the type of person to disappear to own the libs. It seems quite obvious something has abruptly prevented him from communicating and this is no longer just an absence. Given the area he was residing in and the available tech in recovery and quarantine in hospitals I would say it is very likely that he has passed due to something. I think by now if he was recovering from COVID he would be here, but there is still that chance.

In all seriousness this is not a joke and I think one of the people who better knew him should make him a thread all his own. Even if it turns out to be wrong, it will be a happy surprise.

Don't be so melodramatic! Its not pretty obvious something severe has happened to him.

Could it have? Yes of course, but hopefully not.

In reality however, the most likely explanation given that none of the trumpets are posting, in the red room/trump threads, not even @oldfella1962 , is that in their mind they no longer want to participate in the 'leftist/anti trump' atmosphere. In reality, they also know that while they may be right leaning, their man is completely off the chain and they can't actually use logic to fight the good fight......

It is not that he is just not posting, he is also not logging in. It is not about being melodramatic at all. This is not part of the right flight unless you have some info I do not.

The only thing I am saying is perhaps he should be stripped away from the other people on the right as he is really gone and as a long time member who has offered up a lot of participation .....
You know you are really

Good, don't do a fucking thing and just make it all a joke. I am cool with that. This is not an argument I should be leading.

I'll make this one official.

So what are you planning to do?

This. I'm not sitting shiva over the Richard Roses of the world who acted like selfish twits or for 70 year old adults who decide to listen to Trump for medical advice and drink bleach.

"Deserve it", maybe not, but better them than an essential worker that has no say in the matter but to work under our dystopia of a culture or someone's child being pushed back into class

I said what I said

I'm not sitting shiva either. In recent years I've cried over the loss of my mother, my brother-in law and even my beloved dog. I'm not going to waste that kind of emotion on people who bring on their own destruction or who prove themselves unworthy of breathing the same oxygen I do. I simply see no point in wishing evil on any but a very select few. None of whom post here.

I agree.

With two exceptions.
