Actually a Black Male who has never received one dime as a government hand out. Parents taught me not to be jealous of others and just get educated. I did. Since my college degrees were in fields that employers valued I didn’t find it hard to get a job. I was hired for my skills not the tint of my skin. I’ve found that people who like to be victims believe what politicians actually can turn them from losers into winners. People can cry all they want about how awful life is but each individual can achieve a productive successful life if realize all they have to do is tune out all the bullshit and apply themselves. I realize that most people don’t want to hear stuff like this because getting educated is hard work. Being a victim is easy. And interestingly no change of government at either the federal or state level has ever had a significant plus or minus effect on my life. But those who are victims always seem sure that a change in political control is going to be a horror show.

Yes to some extent. But I have found reddit to be all about the hive mind. You read some of the stuff over there that you know for sure is bullshit. But if you dare call it out, then the hive comes to attack you for daring to point out their bullshit

Depending on how you die the process can be horrible. I guess dying instantly from some kind of trauma is the easiest way to go. I have to believe the “unknown” is irrelevant because our consciousness no longer exists. Whatever atoms made us a human are simply reabsorbed into the universe. Neil deGrasse Tyson the astrophysicist has some great insights into this. If you check him out on youtube you find his speculation about god and human death
reddit will rot your brain
Still smoking while drinking but now only drink 2 days a week and then completely dry the other 5 days
Love the death analogy. Don’t we all have periods of just wanting to sleep to escape reality, but we fear non existence through death
sounds like good exercise
21·18 hours agoOver the years having supported one party or the other I can tell you that it’s all about people wanting power over others and then ensuring that they keep it. Their reality is totally different than the reality we, the 99%, live in that they can no longer even relate to us. There is no chance that they would actually understand the issues that affect regular people and then offer solutions that would actually solve those issues. Best advice is to simply try to enjoy life. Have you ever been a big fan of a sports team? They lose and you get depressed? Politics is no different. The players of the team that you admire couldn’t care less about you and neither do politicians of either party. They only tell you what they think that you want to hear so you will vote for them and keep them in power
I browse all and usually find groups that I had no idea even existed

I remember those car cigarette lighters. They stopped making them when they stopped putting ash trays in cars. I’d guess that it was 20 years ago. And the result is that those who still smoke throw their butts out the window.
Yeah but how to you lock the station into a specific button
I have to believe that if we found another inhabited planet, as we were landing we would see a cock and balls drawn on at least one part of that planet’s surface.
Agreed. Dying from something when you know how long you’ve got is different from not having any idea when you are going to die.
I had a good friend who spent way too much time bitching about how he was getting fucked and life just wasn’t fair. He never took the time to live in the moment and just enjoy his life. He never understood that in reality life isn’t fair, has never been fair, and never will be fair. Even though he was a young guy he got cancer. He died within a year. But during that year he finally grasped the concept of living each day and no longer worrying about the future and how life was fucking him.
It’s not fake. Search it and full articles will come up
Thanks for the ideas. I would be willing to sacrifice the girl who baby sits my dog
It must be a burden to have all the right answers for everyone. What insight it must take to be able to tell a Black Male what they should think. I feel honored that you would take the time to correct me. As a Black Male how I could I possibly know how non black people have determined how I should think and “feel”.
Systematic and economic oppression are the forever excuses for those that embrace being victims. There is a big world out there of non White people who are successful because their parents told them not to believe the bullshit of forever racism.
