  • Honestly I’m as agoraphobic as they come so, since I hardly ever leave my residence, I find it quite easy to forget that it’s an election year, aside from many of the news outlets and media posts dictating it. My life outside of the internet has hardly any political interference.

    Yes I still vote, but I keep my political beliefs to myself, but As Marcus Aurelius said, “You always own the option of having no opinion. There is never any need to get worked up or to trouble your soul about things you can’t control”

    I take a lot of solace in that. I know certain things and have certain opinions but I am absolutely not a politician and it’s not something I’ll wreck my soul over. Life is short enough as it is.














  • It’s never just a single issue, it’s a broad scope of ideas from outdated people. We keep consistently voting for people in their 70s who should retire. They don’t know what’s best for the future because they won’t have to live with the consequences of their actions.

    For the executive office at least,

    For congress, both parties taking huge swaths of lobbying money and corruption by huge corporations.

    Lobbying should be illegal and we need an age and term limit.




  • I’m a bit lost. I didn’t justify using racist terms. I’m saying that scammers lack the core traits of humanity, compassion and care in others.

    And they don’t deserve anything, let alone feeling comfortable in a conversation, or the air they breathe.

    That is regardless of race, sex, gender. If you scam someone else, you don’t deserve life.

    While yes it is absolutely racist, scammers are not capable of having an identity associated with someone who is on par with humanity. They’re far below animals.

    I prefer the term “demihuman” or any other dehumanizing language so they know who they are.

    Minus the human trafficked ones of course. Only the vast majority who do it willingly.

    Edit: let me clarify. I did not say using racist terminology is correct nor justified. I’m saying that people who scam others are so far removed from the identity of humanity and compassion that they do not deserve the light of day, much less the air they breathe.
