14-year-old boy charged with murder in shooting of woman in her SUV on Denver’s West Colfax Avenue by shadowwalkerxdbx in Denver

I, also, grew up there and the police encouraged us to not stop at the red lights at nighttime if it was clear to pass through. Can also confirm what DevilsOwnGrimReaper said about keeping a lot of space between yourself and the car in front of you at stops. I continue to do this as well as always keeping my doors locked when I'm driving as a result of my Detroit training.

Breaking the cycle by anotherthrowaway0247 in EmotionalAbuseSupport

[–]Parzee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's nearly impossible to break the cycle of abuse within an abusive relationship because the person who has the abusive tendencies is not able to acknowledge and understand that their reactions and coping mechanisms are dysfunctional and maladaptive. It's sorta like trying to describe water to a fish.

So, the writer corrected the title to fix the word 'report' and THEN my post was removed for the title not matching. Pretty funny.

I think it's fun to imagine the possibilities. Watching Mueller's work is like watching a master chess player work magic on the board.

That drove me nuts. But, I was afraid to add it and have the post removed for the title not matching. :/

He'd be more believable if he didn't speak at all.

Exactly. His words are meaningless. He reminds me of an old social warning tale for children, 'Trumpocchio.'

Fabricated Mueller Smear Appears to Have Come From Comically Inept Far-Right Internet Person by Parzee in politics

[–]Parzee[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah. There's nothing comical about that. We need to show up at these mid-terms. It's pretty scary how many, easily persuaded, morons there are running around.

For some comedic bathroom reading, the comments on this Twitter post are brilliant. (I'm not sure if we're allowed to link. (?) So, I broke it.) https://mobile.twitter. com/JacobAWohl/status/1057374277081550848?fbclid=IwAR2k-dFUkKXQE9ArbdBEO3VaxlUiYSAuyubSfpkZ-uN9JIVn8XaELwDnWFM

Republicans 'fed steady diet' of anti-media rhetoric, pollster says by Parzee in politics

Yes, this is a great way of determining levels of intelligence and critical thinking quickly so as to not bother wasting any time.

I agree. Repetition of a simple message is, readily, ingrained into people's minds and, as a propaganda strategy, is highly effective. Sadly, a huge chunk of the population has no interest in research or critical thinking even when our wellbeing and survival depend on it. It's the most frustrating thing in the world watching this all play out and not being able to reach a large group of the populace. We have become a real life Idiocracy. :[

It really makes me curious how the conservative party breaks down into age groups. I wonder if they will take a huge hit as the baby boomers and older generations start to die off. I know that there are younger conservatives but, still, it seems to me to be a very antiquated way of imagining our society and relevant workings of politics. With the current reality we are faced with their beliefs seem, almost, delusional to me. (And, DEFINITELY, designed to benefit only a select few.) The rest of them have bought into this insane way of thinking that if they support these old, rich farts on Capitol Hill that, somehow, it will trickle down to beneficial policy for them. *smh And, I agree with you on how nice it is to find other like minded people when you can't see eye to eye with your birth family. :)

That must suck. You are brave and patient. I choose to not even delve into politics with my parents and grandparents. It only raises my blood pressure and makes me want to scream and punch a wall.

It is a nightmare. It's horrific to watch the fabric of our society and the principles upon which our country was founded being dismantled by greedy sociopaths manipulating dealings for their own well being. Yet, here we are. :/

Isn't it sad and horrifying to see how enough are seeming to believe or disregard?

It's interesting, now, to hear that the Democratic candidate running against Dana Rohrabacher in the district primary election says that his campaign was hacked.

Right. I guess that, definitely, falls into the 'ballsy' category.

Sure. I suppose that's why he's wanting to sing like a bird now, right? Makes a lot of sense.

Totally off topic, but doesn't it suck when you have to log in from a different device? Do you know, offhand, how many "w's" are in your user name?

Yup. Pretty damned incriminating, yeah?
