You’re replying because you seek to shutdown or provoke people who respond to you. You make the claim of enjoying it because you want to solidify that provocation.

You see? That was reflexive. You didn’t have to reply, or you could have replied differently. You had a reaction to what was stated, which you could not control, and you reacted to it. The manner in which you reacted was within your control, but the underlying response triggers were not.

It's okay. Offense can't be given.

Reacting to an offense is not a choice, it’s a reaction. It is reflexive. How the reaction happens is a choice, but the emotional response of offense is uncontrollable. It is a reflex action. The only assured way not to trigger that reaction is the use of basic empathy to determine if certain statements or behaviors…

...well, that's just silly.

His paintings do convey a sense of that.

Look at the four things he says Trump accomplished. He hasn’t changed the directuon the country’s economics (unless you count the downturn), but continued the trend. ISIS was devastated until he withdrew, and now it's resuegent. Engaging with countries on the world stage is the bare mininum of what a President is…

I have a personal policy against dismissing comments I dislike, but I have no problem with ignoring them.

Is it any surprise that a large number of the migrants from El Salvador are women? These laws are a travesty.

It's astounding what kind of goose-stepping, evil shits can get elected when they have the magic 'R' behind their names.

It's the thumbs-up that gets me. Everything about this story is gross, but that fucking thumbs-up.

Fuckin' A.

This is your moment to shine, buddy!!

Well, it’s...you know...it’s about cats.

So...more or less by accident, I learned mynex-wife has become a sommolier. It’s like she’s living out all of the daydreams we had together that she said were too impractical to ever do. I mean, it’s awesome, but I admit to having a mild case of bitterness about this. It’s the kind of thing that makes moving on hard…

I'd pay cash money to see that.

Aw, man, they totally would! They’re pissed you can’t legally own a 120 howitzer for the backyard.

It’ll give them the House, but not the Senate. Even if they were to pull a slim majority (unlikely, but possible), it’s still not the necessary 2/3rds for most votes necessary to overrule obstinate footdragging from the minority party, or Presidential vetos and actions.

I’m of the opinion (and hope to be proven wrong) that he will lose the popular vote by a wider and more clear margin than the last election, but still take the Electoral College.
