    I haven’t had contact with my family for a while and I’m so much better for it.This Thanksgiving we slept in half the day, played music, napped some more and read.

    Someone still protests occasionally regarding how I cut my family off, but she’s still too soft on conservatives. You have to understand that nothing you say will change their minds in most cases. If you could have changed them or made them see reason then you would have done so a long time ago. Yes they are misguided, yes the system is at fault for the creation of this cult, but there isn’t anything you can do either. Put your own mental health first.

    Times have changed since then though. Modern public infrastructure is a lot better suited for troop movements compared to the 1700s and 1800s when there was plenty of revolutions occurring across Europe. People seem to have this idea that they’re going to take out their guns and start guerrilla warfaring massive groups of armed troops.

    I do believe we need to be more aggressive, more proactive, but there is a good chance that it might be expected. It’s entirely possible that they’re just waiting for an excuse to start gunning people down in the streets.









  • The last woman I dated before my current girlfriend was a conservative woman. I didn’t see any flags for it, she seemed really open minded, and was very well educated. Shame on me for being so blind I suppose.

    She turned out to have a husband and a young son. I’m not entirely sure what to believe since cheaters will say a lot of things, but she apparently hated her marriage a lot. She wouldn’t leave due to her beliefs though.

    Why can’t we just rely on common sense instead of jumping to massive generalizations regarding someones gender?

    Trump has been covered in red flags regarding his treatment of women for years. E. Jean Carroll? Stormy Daniels? Katie Johnson? The Hollywood Access Tape?

    I’m a little anxious that if Me Too blows up again it may have the opposite effect intended, and instead deflect attention away from Trump as people argue over the movement itself.


  • I hate how hopeful I am. I keep believing that at some point these people on the right are going to wake up and realize what they’ve voted for.

    And I am continuously disappointed as they make more and more excuses for the criminal acts their leadership has committed each time they come to light.





  • a lot of Asia is aware they need immigration to succeed,

    While this is true, it doesn’t necessarily mean they’re open to it or that the immigration process is any easier for it.

    as for Europe Spain is he most friendly to immigrants

    I’ve heard that attitude is changing due to gentrification issues. Lots of remote workers have taken to the country and cost of living has apparently risen up in response.

    I’m not entirely sure about either of these personally though(insight from people who live there would be wonderful), but I have heard about about the issues.
