    I’ve had my ups and downs like anyone else - I don’t consider myself an outlier on either end.

    What gets me is repeatedly seeing how we treat each other as a species or in who we choose to represent us when given the option. For example, we love to bitch about Trump (self absolutely included), but Trump is only an issue in the first place because a solid third of our voters looked at that evil fucker and decided: “Yup! This is the guy that’s best aligned with my interests!” …and another third of our voters were, at best, okay enough with that that they couldn’t even be bothered to color in a quarter-inch rectangle in opposition to it.

    I’m thankful as fuck for the exceptions, and do what I can to place myself among them, but the general rule I’ve observed is that humans are evil, greedy, spiteful sacks of shit who ruin whatever and whoever they can.

    …and that’s speaking from the relatively comfortable position of a 1st world country (if we can still call ourselves that) with a job that pays well enough that I can reliably pay the bills and put food on the table. But I look outside my little bubble, and it’s just a sea of people suffering at the hands of their neighbors and leaders. We don’t deserve to be the dominant species here.




  • Gotcha! Best of luck to Canada if push comes to shove. As a 'murican I’d like to think my countrymen and especially our military whose loyalty is sworn to the constitution, not to the president, would resist the fuck out of an order to invade Canada, but so far we don’t seem to have much of a spine.

    Idk what all I can do to help from inside the dumpster fire, but I’ll throw a wrench in the gears on this side whenever the opportunity presents.

    …this is all just so fucking stupid >_<
