  • If your concern is how someone coped with trauma or how loudly they speak when recounting injustice and being ignored by authorities then you never truly cared about my husband.

    In many ways I've led a very privileged life because I read this part and at first didn't at all get why he would say it, just couldn't figure it out for a minute. It seems like horrific trauma to process for everyone close but especially for him, so my instinct is to think about how hard it must be to manage that - especially given that part of the trauma is being ignored by authorities in spite of speaking loudly.

  • Also, without downvotes +17 is literally seventeen people, so extrapolating that to represent the majority of a site with 837 users logging on the past day is a bit much, especially given that upvotes from federated instances outside those 837 per day are counted as well. Not to be competitive but I've seen much stupider takes over +40.

  • I do think I was wrong saying what I did but now I learn more about his gaming habit and how it affects his life and his family I think there’s more to this than we know.

    Wait, does this translate to your action was wrong but you found justification for your intentions afterwards?

  • I had never really thought much about where people draw their lines, but at this point the democratic party really has to be past the point of redemption with almost the entire populace. Even if I imagine a fictional world where they abruptly decide to start doing something objectively good, I still can't imagine a significant fraction of their base reacting to that in any way other than "damn you assholes had that option the whole time?".

  • When I was in sixth grade we had to choose a biography from our library to do a book report on one of our heroes, but because I was wicked underground none of my heroes had biographies available in our middle school library so I got frustrated and just pulled a book at random and got this guy.

    I don't remember a single thing that was actually in the book, just that Leonid Brezhnev was officially my hero in sixth grade.

    edit: I thought his first name was Lenoid for well over two decades until checking just now because apparently I was terrible at reading back then.

    second edit: I never really took time to think about what a middle-school teacher would think about a kid that says their hero is Leonid Brezhnev.

    third edit: called him Lenoid again in the second edit
