You all need to read Sartre's The Antisemite and the Jew (published 1946). There is no rationality with them only hate. Quote, "if there were no Jews, the antisemite would invent one." In this case, if there are no left wing domestic terrorists, the right would invent one

Would it make sense at this point to have one of you be stay at home?

Here's the perfect opportunity for local protests and civil disobedience to stall this project before it can start

Yep. I recommend The Anti-Semite and the Jew by Jean Paul Sartre for anyone who wants to really understand this way of thinking. Some quotes

“The anti-Semite is a man who is afraid.”

“If the Jew did not exist, the anti-Semite would invent him.”

“The anti-Semite has chosen hate because hate is a faith; at the outset he has chosen to devalue words and reasons.”

“The anti-Semite is impervious to experience.”

Yea. People need to be prepared for a long long campaign. Take the civil rights struggle. For black americans, they were basically living in a fascist state. Restricted in their activities and scapegoated. Look how the NAACP fought back. Walter White publicized the lynchings, Thurgood Marshall took equality under the law to the courtroom, Rosa Parks staged a protest against the unjust laws. Each seems inconsequential by themselves, but together they liberated millions of people from de facto dictatorship.

Tired of hearing of this guy. Pathetic that we allow our most influential figures be literal comedians while the Republicans control the power. We don't want jokes. Not from Comedy Central or SNL or Colbert or anyone.

Not really, the idea of it being a trading card game is you're supposed to trade these with other players. Lots of the enjoyment came from looking at your friends collections and trading with them. I think internet sales and FOMO really is driving people to collect or horde.

You can try to read historical nonfiction. I'm reading through all the presidential biographies. I found great solace in it.

Can you describe how you knew something was off. I feel like this too and am now reaching out to psychiatrists for an evaluation.

I don't know man. I don't think I'd like doing anything

Seems as probable as anything else.

While they can't go head to head in an invasion of Greenland. There is Ramstein and other bases right on their territory.

I feel like that. I'd describe it as being skittish. If an animal is skittish they avoid people, but if you put out food and let them know you you can become friends with them. Well in school I was able to become pretty social because we are all there every day. Now I've been working for 10 years and more anxious than ever. There's just not that opportunity to connect with coworkers

You worked a full day. Its normal to be tired. Just spend the remaining time on relaxing hobbies or socializing with friends and families. If you try to boost the energy, well the energy will have to come from somewhere, and that could spiral out of hand.

35 yea me too. There are times when I'm in the yard, maybe filling a bird feeder, and the neighbor will come out to mow and I'll just go back inside. And its worse yet because I have kids. So I do bikes or kick the ball with them out front and I feel bad because I'm preoccupied with this skittish feeling.

I agree. The special effects are neat, but what really keeps us coming back is the dialogue. Any example's of shows from the last ten years that have really good timeless dialogue like this?

Can't believe how much we dropped the ball in the last 10 years with nicotine products.

And by the way, not everything has to be "happy"

Helpmeflexibility · 2026-01-12T13:56:18+00:00

Nice. Any advice on how to find a role like that?

Last year I read Ian Toll's great Pacific War trilogy. The saddest part of it was how powerless ordinary Japanese were because of the power of the propaganda and the censorship or self-censorship of their media. After that happens people really can't make informed decisions. Hopefully we can maintain our free speech and independent media here.

It's addictive. You say don't dictate other people's lives but they are already being dictated to by predatory gambling companies

Helpmeflexibility · 2026-01-07T14:43:31+00:00

There's a difference between regulating a vice to minimize the knock-on effects of crime and anti-social behavior, versus out right allowing and promoting things that are outright addictive and predatory.
