the problem is me: just an inability to tolerate the intermittent tedium and troubles of a real, long-term relationship that asks things of you

This is a fear that loneliness feeds off. It probably isn't true. You just had incompatible troubles.

Somewhere out there is a person who's troubles wont feel tedious to you... And they will hate your troubles.... but then! somewhere else there is someone who needs what you want to give and has what you need.

Good luck.

In the board and executives' minds major shareholders are important. General shareholders are rubes, suckers that the board have to trick to keep the wheels from falling off.

Good thing to do if you are in Winnipeg? Leave. (I'm joking but also not. In other circumstances I would say that "I haven't spent much time there" but the time I spent there was too much.)

Split the difference? They are both in the bottom 5%

Auto-Moronic Asphyxiation

I have read/heard reports of Iran saying Assad was trying to minimize commitment to the Resistance in exchange for guarantees from the west and the monarchies. I've also heard that Iran warned Assad months ago and he refused help.

So I think it wasnt that they didn't want to be caught in a quagmire but that Assad by trying to not get involved in helping Palestine left himself open to the very people who are hurting Palestine.

All the "After they are done with us they will come for you" from Hezbollah, Hamas, and Iran might have been directed at Syria and not the monarchies like we thought.

What about a general mega in C/Comics called the "New General Mangathread"?

But why would they do that for a patsy?

I hope any brainworms they may have had died in the process and they will come out of it ready to lead the people in a proletarian revolution!
