Keeping our head down when we heavily rely on a rules based order for our survival is the most self-defeating position to take for our country

but I do want to do things differently if I get out of this

and it's exhausting. I lived on less for many years but I guess I had less at stake then, and never knew any different. Add the cumulative toll of years, and the knowledge that I made decisions that led me here even if I probably couldn't really have done much different...

It's on my mind because i've seen a lot of "Dilbert wasn't even that good."

It's ok if it was. And if you didn't like it, that's cool too but nobody's handing out star stickers for having tastes that line up conveniently with not being dismayed later.

Beth orton though

there have been so many moments feel heartbreaking for me, his character just unloads things that are so deep and real. but he also has so much more benefit of the doubt and acceptance than so many get. I'm just leaving aside the dr show tropes

the savant thing is kind of depressing but it also shows the little tough moments, even if not the longterm strain of it all
