Being around certain "friends" brings out all my insecurities and makes me feel like shit. I'm a sensitive person who tries to be considerate of others' feelings, but I get treated like I'm an idiot for it when I'm around this one friend. I'm currently on vacation with her and her bf and I'm ready to explode because everything that comes out of her mouth is either critical (of me, of someone else, of something) or condescending, and I can't fucking stand it anymore. She's the type of person who always has some comment to make, she's always the expert regardless of the topic, always has to be right, has a huge inflated ego, and voices it in the most insufferably condescending way possible. This is supposed to be a relaxing trip and it's only day 2 and I want to be anywhere else but here rn.

In bad country, you are taxed more for speaking out against genocides.

I used rat in that context as a general insult without any racist intent in mind, but noted, I will amend it to ~~animal (although I don't like it because I broadly like animals)~~ beast.

I will say that I find your comment extremely tone deaf in response to what was obviously an expression of fury. Israel are currently in the middle of an actual mass annihilation campaign, they aren't just posting about it online, and they use the threat of nuclear attacks to tie the hands of the people they destroy as they destroy them. So I'm not feeling very sympathetic or regretful about wishing the same on them, and in fact right now I see it as the only way they will stop.

However wishing accomplishes nothing, it's literally just a helpless cry of anger and one of the only things that we can do as we watch the atrocities unfold. I'm not going to manifest a nuclear strike through my words regardless of how heavy-handed they are, and so I would appreciate if you didn't try to tone police my expressions of anger.

I've said it before, I'll say it again. When the time comes for Tel Aviv and every beast within it to disappear in a mushroom cloud, there will not be a SINGLE. SHRED. OF REGRET. Death to Israel. Death to America. Death to Britain. Death to the west. Death to everybody and everything propping up this colossal evil.

EDIT: Replaced language.

Imagine only being able to strike a meaningful blow to your enemy by killing 1000 civilians in the process. And being proud of that? That's pathetic, the actions of no-tactic tacticians. Fucking mindless animals.

Which is it? Which do you use? Are there different associations between them?

I've always said it "comrad," but when I started to meet people in orgs, they predominantly say "comrayd" (within the same country).

I love how everyone stopped caring within the week. It's kind of amazing.

One of the few celebrities I knew and cared about because I grew up watching Charmed, still one of my favourite shows to this day, before I stopped watching TV. Shannen died on 13th July of cancer.

And all I can think is... man, she was kind of a piece of work. She had been battling cancer for almost a decade on and off and I suppose had a long time to grapple with her mortality and come to terms with it. And in the end, it seems like what she chose was pettiness and bitterness.

She had a "long" list of people who weren't invited to her funeral, because they wouldn't be coming for "the right reasons." She reignited a feud in the Charmed community with Alyssa Milano, using her cancer as the reason she had to "get the truth out" about a television show 25 years after the fact. She finalised her divorce with her husband one day before her death, ~~presumably to prevent him from inheriting anything.~~ The last one is contentious because who knows what was happening behind closed doors but still, that's definitely one last 'fuck you.'

It makes me sad that she was filled with so much hate and bitterness that even in her dying moments, she only chose to amplify the bad than forgive and make peace. I'm not at all religious but I think it's a very human thing to want to seek peace and reconciliation in the end, before you can't anymore, and I was a little stunned to see her choice be to go out in a blaze of bitterness.

That's it. There's not really any point to this. I was just stunned. I never knew her and don't have any right to judge her, and I'm not, really, deep down. It's just something that made me a little sad and that I don't really understand. People sure are strange.

Four months of his life for this. Fuck pigs.

This SCOTUS ruling sets the precedent that the office of the Presidency is immune to any legal repercussions for crimes committed as part of an ‘official act’. Any president can now do whatever they want in office and face 0 consequences for it.

I mean, this is largely how it's always been, right? It's just now they're being super brazen about it?

I'm sad that he left the scene without a bullet in his brain and I hope the events he 100% brought upon himself follow him for the rest of his life and send him to the brink of despair and beyond. :)
