Negative human interaction seems to have reached a new level. Almost like there is a competition going on to see who will win the prize on any given day for "worst human." I would love to see common courtesy, human decency, and maybe a healthy dose of mind your own business make its way back into everyday interactions.

There's a lot of positive out there, just a matter of refocusing your 'lense'. Definitely a challenge in the age of Internet and 24-hour "news" cycle. I'm still working on it  waytogo

It appears that the factory for Dumb Pills has been going full speed 24/7 for some time now and is now supplying all product for free to anyone.

Long-term customers are upping their dosages as well.

I'm having some trouble with all this. For the first time in my life I feel some emotional unrest over what's unfolding all across the country.

FFS I did not have up to date information.

I was wrong, they've tripled production and distribution.
Maybe more.

Is this going to leave me more frustrated after reading?  Optimistic?   Hopeful?  Just validate what I perceive and think I know?



The office (for clarification:  my work office) and its toxic culture that the president ("toddler in chief") creates (and is the primary contributor to) and not being able to see and help my family plus the past 7 days are reaaaalllly starting to wear on me as well.  

I try to find silver linings and feel gratitude (I really do have it much better than many) but those are becoming as elusive as a black footed ferret.

It's important to recognize that not all (not most) protestors are looters/rioters. So who are these A Holes?

And most police officers are just as horrified as we are by what happened in Minneapolis to start this latest wave of unrest. But why does it keep happening?

And Kristlenatch..... It's important to know your history, lest it be repeated.

I should probably go and ban myself now...  Undecided

<snip> It's important to know your history, lest it be repeated.

It's kinda late. Wouldn't you agree?

I predict that this thread won't last much longer.
