I’m so tired of ragebait working.

If you were talking about someone else, you would probably say something along the lines of “everyone deserves to be loved” so when you start being down on yourself, just remember that though means one of two things:

Either you really are somehow the worst human being who ever lived and somehow the first who truly doesn’t deserve to be loved, or your brain is just being mean right now.

Yeah, sensory issues do be like that.

I could never stand raw tomatoes as a kid and, for the most part, I still hate them. Most sorts of cooked tomatoes are fine. I can tolerate the shitty fast food tomatoes that are just the solid bits and are nearly flavorless, but I still don’t like them.

Have you tried many different types of apples? I find that some have a gritty almost fuzzy texture that I can’t stand, but some other apples have a completely different texture.

So you are fiscally irresponsible and you are proud of it? Good to know…

Not exactly stealing from the rich but Bill Gates seems pretty hellbent on donating away his fortune before he dies.

Ordinary pajamas of “No, you!” That automagically protect you. Oh, some thought they would shoot you? Surprise! They get shot instead.

Most people’s opinions here seem to be oriented around their youth. When we are just old enough to engage with the world in small and controllable ways, but still too young to really grasp the worst parts or feel partly responsible for them, it’s easy to feel optimistic about the world and our place in it. That optimism is what we look back on and long for because, as we age further, we gradually realize how misguided that optimism really is.

I respect your opinion. I don’t feel the same.

Valid. I just lack general faith in the practice of voting with your wallet. My default assumption is that it takes an unreasonable amount of persistence and coordination, and that the majority of people either don’t know or don’t care about whatever issue is being considered.
