badposting is a comm where you post badly
This is not a !the_dunk_tank@hexbear.net alternative. This is not a !memes@hexbear.net alternative. This is a place for you to post your bad posts.
Ever had a really shitty bit idea? Joke you want to take way past the point of where it was funny? Want to feel like a stand-up comedy guy who's been bombing a set for the past 30 minutes straight and at this point is just saying shit to see if people react to it? Really bad pun? A homemade cringe concoction? A cognitohazard that you have birthed into this world and have an urge to spread like chain mail?
Code of Conduct applies just as much here as it does everywhere else. Technically, CoC violations are bad posts. On the other hand: L + ratio + get ~~better~~ worse material bozo
of course lottos are a statistician's joke, but its still fun to imagine you'd do with that kind of capital. Sort of like imagining what a 
could have done with the Unitary Executive Theory
Do everything I can to destroy the thing called labor day powerball because that’s a disgraceful concept that goes against everything labor day should be about.
amerikkkan labor day is about forgetting the Haymarket Massacre and disrupting international solidarity, that's why it's about as far as possible from real labor day on May 1.
the rest of the wold should declare their own, second labor day on the first monday of septemebr, then make fun of the US for only having one labor day
Ye best be believing in labor day powerball, because yer livin' in one
also nobody won, so everyone payed to play the labor day looserball.
Right now the Jackpot is $1.3B, the cash value is $589M. You'll get to keep about 30-40% of that, given that nobody else gets the jackpot too. Being conservative, that's around $180M.
First I would just walk away from my current life. I would get a nice hotel room in a nearby city. Get a PO box and change my number. I would first be a good capitalist and figure out how to protect it by spreading it among less risky denominations. The dollar is cooked for the foreseeable future. I would have a hard time trusting banks on the long term. During 2008 there were banks that quietly froze certain transactions, even for wealthy customers. With my luck we would get the worst crash in US history the day after I deposit the winnings.
I would start working on dual citizenship in other countries or at least trying to get some kind of long-term visa. That way I'm just a plane trip away from getting out.
I would spend a lot of time traveling around the US, staying in major cities for months at a time. Holiday vacations in different places. I've experienced winter in Miami already. I would try Christmas at some lodge in the rockies, autumn in NYC, 4th of July in Alaska. Stuff like that. Soak up experiences and sights. After that I would start traveling abroad and looking for somewhere to settle. Of course, China is super tempting and would definitely be a place to visit.
When do I start funding American militant leftist organizations? I don't know. First is how the money changes you. It has to change you, right? I wouldn't change overnight but 6 months later, a year, 5 years? I would love to say I am intrinsically leftist but I'm not. I don't think anyone is. I wasn't always a leftist so what does happen can happen. I can become not leftist again. In that case it makes sense to get rid of the money as soon as possible. I definitely didn't earn it. Lottery money comes from poor people spending their last few bucks on tickets. It's still exploitation.
I have some ideas for community building and it would be enough money to hire experienced members of leftist orgs as consultants. My problem with giving it directly to an org is that regardless of how leftist they are, non-profits work like companies. They'll want to use it to expand, the cost of expanding will come first with the hopes that they'll be big enough to carry out real projects in a few years. I'd rather just be the mostly silent backer of real projects directly. It would give me something to do other than be a treatler.
Start a food truck that gives away vegan tacos. Then go unionize fast food taco places and give out free tacos to prevent scab activity.
I mean, a real answer? I'd probably pay off my debt, get my health sorted and then donate the rest to an org or something idfk
I keep thinking about business ventures. Amazon's eink kindle dominates the market but is universally loathed, it could be kicked out by a cheap, open source alternative. With buttons to turn the page. Or a phone based on the opensource fork of andoid, sans google's malware, with dedicated physical switches to cut the camera and microphone from the battery and motherboard as the owner sees fit. Start a privately owned company, cultivate ties with manufacturing in China, get into coding assembling and shipping the things, then once the business is stable, try and convert it to a co-op, like Engels passing commie lit to his employees.
I have been looking into "dumb" (sorry for the slur I am using it to counter the idea of smart technology) technology. We really need a second internet that rolls back a lot of intrusive shit and we need devices that connect to that network safely. There are already companies that make privacy-forward devices. They simply take existing mass produced hardware and insert custom firmware to disable the backdoor features. I think it would be better to have a hardware manufacturer that doesn't include any of that shit to begin with. And to build universal, modular devices that are designed to work with the rolled back internet.
If we take lessons from cybernetics, we vertically integrate it all. A company that makes devices, networking protocol for them, and the firmware/software. It would also be cool to make them also low-power devices rather than increasingly expensive space heaters.
I would buy all the beanis in the world and 
Create a Marxist guerilla training camp in Montana and do my best to make sure it's not a cult
I could pay for prescription cold medicine out-of-pocket at an American hospital!
