I always laugh about comments like this. You're practically told people have been executed. You have been told people were detained. You've been told that the idiots only have nominal control (to an extent). Too many of you think you don't have a choice to avoid all the shit they're throwing at you, but you do. You don't have to watch the news all day. You don't have to doomscroll and suck up all of the negative news cycles.
Things aren't as bad as they appear. Hell, people have already been executed.
Who are these people of which you speak that have been executed?
And I don’t spend all day looking at news (or poal). I’ve been around the block a few times and seeing the same shit year after year, and getting worse, is both infuriating and humbling.
Heading out to the mountains for the weekend now, with my four dogs, a pile of food and accoutrements. When I get back, it will be time to start harvesting my acre of walnuts.
Hope you have a good weekend NotHereFor.
Awesome. Good for you, man. Really. Not many people think it's an option to just unplug for some reason... I'm not sure why.
I can name a few people here: That traitor from Arizona that used to be a Senator. Daddy Bush, the CIA agent/former president.
To add to that, so many people don't notice Ankle monitors but part of the show is presenting these things to people who can see them. It's all a big inside joke and some of us are laughing our asses off at the emotional roller coaster the audience is experiencing, eating our popcorn and getting comfy with frens. Maybe it does suck for most of the unknowing proles. Hell some of us break down from time to time too. Ultimately, although it's a bit of a bumpy ride, it's just theater. The panic and creeping despair is designed to prey on the week minded, those who lack the certainty and calm to carry the burden of knowing.
Enjoy your retreat, man. I hope you have a good weekend too.
