Let's meet on Skype with a group video chat!
September 30, 2015 at 5:44 pm
Hey poop stains.
So King and I have been talking and we were saying how fun it would be to do a group video chat on skype. Skype can do up to 10 people. Would anyone else be interested in doing this?? We can come up with a date/time that works for everyone. People here do get togethers in real life, so perhaps a skype group date would be cool too!
Speak now if you're interested, or forever hold your peace.

Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

Thanks for the offer, but fuckthatshit. For me Skype is limited to IM and voice chat with my teammates online
If you have any serious concerns, are being harassed, or just need someone to talk to, feel free to contact me via PM

I'm down. You'll have to settle for a shaky cellphone image, because I don't have a camera on my computer, but sure!
I'd kinda like to hear peoples' voices and see facial expressions.
A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost
I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.

We used to use google hangout for this kind of thing. I don't know what's hip and cool anymore, but, whatever.
I can't right about now, too much stress and stuff. Maybe when I settle into life here (just in time to be whisked away to england O__o )
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day

So, uh, how's this work?
The only person I have on Skype are my parents, so my folks can talk to my son when he's here.

I'm gonna give it a few days to wait and see if more people respond. Right now it's just me you and King, but skype can have up to 10 people in a group video chat.
Once we have more, we'll come up with a day/time that works for everyone and we'll exchange skype names via PM and start the party.

Might be easier to use Google Hangouts as you can send a link to the hangout and everyone can join.
