  • You’re saying kids born because abortion wasn’t available are pieces of garbage. What the fuck. think about what you said.

    Since I was down voted into oblivion. I’ll reconsider your statement.

    Deep down Republicans believe that the only reason they’re here is that they weren’t aborted.

    So I guess that’s similar to conservatives thinking that the only way people can act morally is because they read it in a thousand year old book.

    I guess the logic checks out but all I could think about with a gut check was that kids who’s parents wanted to abort them but couldn’t probably ended up in a hostile environment.

    So to any young kids who get into this “I am intelligent therefore depressed.”

    I’ve been there and what I’ve found is that if you are like how I was. I falsely correlated analysis of the universe and the discovery of it’s harshness with how I was feeling and probably erroneously ignored my bias (because I was depressed) to focus on negative realizations.

    It was my caustic family environment, my lack of individual freedom, poor sleep, poor diet that was making me miserable.

    If you’re feeling this way you need to look into Mindfulness and why existence even in its brutally bleak appearance can be an enjoyable quiet morning listening to crickets as you wake up, or being aware of noisy air vent that sounds interesting, or even the curiosities of your own wandering mind.

    Our experience of existence is relative to our framing. Emotional intelligence is learning to side step the current and enjoy observing the river.





  • Florida here. I don’t say Coke for all soda just for a dark cola. But Coke is just the first brand I think of/want when it comes to Soda. Like the most ubiquitous.

    If I want a Root Beer I’m gonna ask for that. But I’d never fucking say Pop.

    I’d say Soda for the general.

    The problem isn’t that I want to be a centrist because I think it’s correct. It’s because this country is going to fucking shit with the deadlock on any kind of cooperation.

    Constantly volleying for further extremes correct or not is why we can’t get a budget approved, why even with the ACA it got stripped to fucking Bits when the next presidency swung around.

    The reality is you want to be bringing in more voters by being more palatable and not pushing them away by drawing a line in the sand for EVERY single issue. No I’m a better liberal! No I’m a better liberal look at me virtue signal.

    It’s fucking exhausting.








  • It’s because we voted “anti-establishment”. We tried going for Bernie but then the DNC took care of that. Then Donnie boy was “obviously never gonna win.” And America said screw you we don’t want the SAME elitist bullshit. Donnie won threw the world for a loop and you know what they decided?

    To punish us. To encourage Trump, to outrage us at everything he did wrong and incite him to do worse. Ever wonder why he’s not in jail? Because he’s the clown they keep punishing us with.

    See vote for Clinton, or Biden, or Bush because LOOK at the alternative!

    That’s not real democracy. Real democracy would’ve been Bernie getting the DNC nomination like he deserved. Real democracy would’ve been ranked choice voting where we don’t have to pick the shortest steaming pile of shit!

    Honestly yeah this is actually great. Most of the reasons I started to hate Reddit was that it went “mainstream”. Censorship, political feuds.

    I would hear Reddit mentioned in the news. I don’t need that for my “community”.

    Like a return to Bulletin Boards. Hell yeah. Free and open internet babyy
