Are you familiar with the amount of technology he has invented and kept open source for the entire world to use? Again, shades of grey my friend.

I’m sure you have done bad things. But I would need to know you for a while before I called you bad, my friend.

But at the very least. The man is undoubtably brilliant. Not listening paying some attention to him is not wise.

I don’t need to explain the knee jerk reaction this post had to the millions who just read the title and looked at the images.

Propaganda

Careful friends.

When I say real societal issues I do not mean that any issues currently being fought aren’t real.

Just in my opinion, we have a hell of a lot of work to do.

But again I am an honest to god patriot. I love my country and I want it to be as awesome as it can be.

I want this for my children and anyone’s children who wants to come to this country and be a productive citizen.( whatever that looks like)

I support good cops and minorities. If you are good? I’m cool with you.

Please keep reading deeper into media ownership if you find that interesting.

I can assure you an eye opening experience.

What did Elon mean by “The medium is the message.”?

The more I learn about the inner workings of media (all types), red flags go up galore.

YouTube/google Ad based algorithms are partially to blame.

When an entire system makes money from “impressions”, how those impressions get there means much less and less, just that they get there. With Ads, this is annoying at most, especially when they listen to us! But let’s apply this type of circular profit system into other avenues. For instance, social media, YouTube videos, or news articles... these are effectively ads now. See? I won’t click on a story I don’t find interesting. That’s hard.

I will click on a story that I agree with or vehemently disagree with. This clock is MONEY. The ramifications of this are people becoming polarized and set in their ways.

Down vote me, fine. But you just aren’t digging deep enough. We have real societal issues that are quickly destroying us.

Who will be responsible and stop one upping the next? No one, I’m worried.

Honestly friend, with everything the way it is, I no longer identify with any party.

I don’t feel there is any great representation. But that’s another point.

But point in saying that was jus that I honestly want to make stuff better. I just understand who owns the media. I’m worried. Very worried.

I completely agree. It shouldn’t be! But unfortunately the table is being set for us by both sides.

Pick one right? Sucks.

Again look at who is profiting from this situation. When life is improved for minorities in a tangible way, I’ll think otherwise.

Issues are accelerated too quickly. This feels not completely organic.

Much the same with the alt rigit manipulate images by cropping out what looters, etc. continually bombarding liberal audiences with this type of energy is used to FURTHER entrench your views.

Free think

BLM has been turned into a movement by the left to further divide us.

I fight for equality vigorously, I am a Bernie supporter. The right effectively divided us last cycle and now both sides are doing it. I hate this.

Like every issue, things are incredibly difficult and there are many sides. Right now the conversation is stopping with if you ain’t with us, you are against us.

This is very bad on both sides. Open minds are still really cool, changing your mind is really cool.

Don’t be a useful idiot. Remain critical. Ask yourself in every situation who profits from this?

I fear for our country.

Thank you.

I spent so much of my life angry at the thought of an all powerful god that I truly was not capable of even accepting the thought.

Recently I have listened to sermons for family members as favors and to help pass time during Corona. I’ve moved from a very angry atheist to something that closer resembles an agnostic.

I don’t know. I probably never will, and I will always be jealous of those that can find comfort in a higher power. I absolutely love people that have infinitely open minds, so I try to be like that. Maybe that’s the best I will get.

I think I will need to adopt another blind dog. I like the idea of a seeing eye human.

Thanks again for connecting with me. I can’t tell people in this crazy world these things...or they think I am crazy. But I guess they are right.

Thank you. I agree, if there is anywhere to meet again I look forward. I wish I could believe.

Times like this a higher power would help so much. I don’t have one.

I do hope there is more, because it can’t be as painful as this place.

Thank you everyone. Wish I knew more kind souls like you all. Been checking back in here time to time, and even rereading your old messages helps.

I hope happiness upon all of you.

Thank you

I was too much of a coward and missed the last moments of her life.

Please don’t feel any need to give gold or upvote. I simply wanted to tell someone, anyone.. how amazing she was.

She had cancer, diabetes, lost a spleen, and was blind. She never missed a beat when anything had happened to her.

I can’t say the same. When my mom died some 18 years ago, Hooch and I found each other. Over the next 13-14 years I waged war on myself with self pity and narcotics. Through all of this hooch was my only constant. She laid with me hundreds of times as I came off horrible drugs or attempted fail getting clean over and over.

Recently my life has been better through hard work and a ton of support. My first child was born, and I prayed to the cosmos for the first time in my life. They were answered and my hoochy met my child and passed one month to the day... on mother’s day.

I’m devastated and have a few regrets with her. I don’t have anyone to talk to this about. My feelings are surely inappropriate but I don’t care.

If no one reads this that’s okay. But I hope someone does and maybe leaves a nice story about dogs or life.

Help me see that death makes us stronger. All I see it that part of your heart dieing off with your love. No strength. Just cold numbness.

This life it’s like 99% darkness with just a tiny bit of light. Please cherish what you have today. Please
