Damn this sucks. Addiction is not easy and even 20 years removed I sometimes get the urge. I don’t know what part of my brain that is but it’s a forever battle. That being said I’m just a regular dude. I can’t imagine how much harder it is to combat addiction for someone in the spotlight. I wish him well and hope he…

Freedom has consequences, and the consequences in this case are: a bunch of people are pissed and are showing their displeasure.

Free Speech is only freedom from the government, it is NOT freedom from consequences from privately owned companies or from consumers of your speech.

““I screwed up that internal communication.”

The comments here are more or less what I expected. I get the hate, but don’t quite get there myself. I don’t expect that anyone who gets as close to real power as Powell did to get out clean; every Sec Def, NSA, Sec of State, and President may as well be Genghis Khan or something. I just don’t have the emotional…

My cats seem to get the zoomies at 2:30 in the morning. 

careful how you wish death on others..

I hope your own record is spotless in the end..

I ended up with two very adorable kittens and they get hours-long zoomies and almost exclusively after midnight. I tend to be up later than my wife and she thought I was exaggerating until she finally witnessed it after two months of having them. Somehow, these tiny beasts are louder than our 70lb dog.

Fuck off with your anti pitbull fear mongering rhetoric.

WTF?
 
Talk about incessant stereotypes. There is NOTHING wrong with pits outside of the OWNERS who’ve treated them horribly.

Oh look how edgy, someone implying that pitbulls kill babies. Definitely don’t see that often.

Are there relationship dealbreakers for you? There are for me. Relationships are allowed to end sometimes. The person living in reality deserves to be with someone (romantically or not) who appreciates them and is there for them. I guess the question is, can a conspiracy theorist be a good partner/friend/family…

I cannot conceive of a day when I won't hear his music at least once a day. There has never been a day where there has been enough of his music to listen to. Still miss the GOAT

Unfortunately after dealing with somebody who went down the rabbit hole for the last five years there’s no way to save them. You either get with their insane program or get out of the way. In my case I didn’t get with the program so she’s currently getting me out of the way with a divorce. Honestly I don’t miss hours…

Introduce them to the works of people who’ve come back from the brink. CNN regularly features former white supremacists and reformed neo-Nazis, for instance. Show these interviews to your loved one in a judgement-free manner, and have an open conversation about them.

“Maybe it’s because his name is Tito and I’ve never met a Tito I didn’t like. Liquor or human.”

Gods, she’s just the best. And that line about “more backbone” is excellent.

This is the sort of garbage that Dave is feeding. It’s also the lived reality of being a trans woman on the internet.

That’s assuming he was EVER where they said he was. He could have been hiding out in another country for weeks.
