He answers: I believe that whoever created the concept of soulmates should be taken into the town square and beaten to death. Or you should tell me who they are so I can send them a check for a couple of hundred thousand dollars, because they have done more to facilitate the demise of happy marriages than I could ever aspire to doing.

The concept of a soulmate to me is absolutely bizarre. To suggest that out of eight billion other people in the world, that there's just this one person, and they happen by the way to live within like the same town as you, where they went to the same university as you - what were the odds of that? And that's the only person you could ever have a happy, fulfilling relationship with. That's insane, folks. It's insane. And by the way, it's toxic. Because here's the thing: when you get married, society essentially tells you, this person, they're supposed to be your best friend, best lover, best roommate, best travel companion, best co-parent - that's a hell of a resume, guy. Like, it'd be shocking to find someone who fits all three of those things.

So what happens when you have this concept of a soulmate? And my partner, you know, they're the best co-parent, they're the best roommate, the best travel companion, but you know, they're not the best lover I ever had. Well, they mustn't be your soulmate then. That means that there's somebody out there in the eight billion people, that they would be the perfect one. And that's what the horizon that just forever recedes and keeps people constantly craving the next thing that might check all of the boxes. It's dangerous.

“I’m probably not saying that correctly”/“sorry for my pronunciation” = 👍 understandable! foreign languages often have sounds that aren’t used in English and learning to correctly pronounce unfamiliar phonemes is genuinely difficult even with help

“lol I’m not even gonna TRY to pronounce that 😂” = 👎 THIS is the problem, if treats languages other than English like they are inherently ‘weird’ or ‘overly complicated’ just because you aren’t familiar with them

I am dead fucking serious. A serious car accident or a major illness is how a lot of the "working" homeless get that way. They played payment roulette with the wrong bills that subsequently snowballed while they were too sick to work/in the 'donut hole' of spend-down before you qualify for medicaid and lost everything.

THIS SHIT IS NOT SAFE!

The whole world has forgotten us in Gaza.

on jan 22, 2026, jaque ramon was shot 11 times in the back and murdered by (at least) three unidentified san bernadino sheriff's department officers who refused to identify themselves when filmed and confronted at the scene.

they just. left jaque there. for paramedics to pick up. we still don't know why in the world they thought this could have ever been a necessary response to an unarmed Black man, no matter his supposed crimes; the department refuses to properly comment on the situation.

i have not been able to support his family financially because i am going through extreme hardship right now. however, this is my community, and this is my home; i try to be there for the gatherings (every 22nd, on the monthly anniversary of his death, at place it happened, by the petco across from the tyler mall) i can make it to.

if any of you can please help boost & support his case and his mother's gofundme, please please please do so.

we think the media has been suppressing his case, so there's been very little coverage even locally. despite being very involved in my community, both i and many others did not even learn about this until very recently. please try to signal boost, share, support, etc if you can. it is so important word gets out there.

jaque's mother is struggling a lot, too. i haven't been able to talk to her much, but it's very plain to see for anyone who sees or talks to her directly. she deserves answers, justice, and peace.

please help us bring her that.
