What’re we gonna do, come in and “peacekeep” the Dominicans, like we did to Iraq and Afghanistan? Write strongly worded protests like in Darfur? I fail to see an even remotely workable solution.

It’s easy for people without emotion regulation issues to say that. When your emotions are like the waves from Interstellar, they either put you on medication that dulls you and makes you fat, or you shatter. It’s—it sucks.

I mean yeah, Israel is an apartheid state that waves around its LGBT friendliness around like a huge tolerance dick. Are statements like this unexpected?

I find Nikki Haley aka Nimrata Nikki Randhawa to be an odd duck

isn’t he kinda abusive tho

I mean either way it works. The pope doesn’t seem to be in denial that the church is deeply corrupt.

“Duplicity is the currency of today ... they say one thing and do another.”

I can tell you as a Borderline that emotions are so goddamn pointless. Ain’t worth it. Must be great to be one of those people without emotion who have the ability to get on with their lives without occasionally collapsing.

I saw a psychoanalyst for 3.5 years with no real goals besides keeping my constantly suicidal ass alive. Helped a lot actually. I think for people with personality disorders it may help as much as meds.

but they’re genderfluid so that’s cool right? idk

Look at his stupid face.

white guys are so attractive

I smoked from 16 to like my 22nd birthday. Definitely a daily half+ pack a day for a while. It’s been an interesting almost year of quit-ness. Parties are weird when you’re not going out every 15 minutes. Drinking without immediately wanting a cigarette is something that takes time and effort to achieve. Sure its…

I think that performance art is essentially unsubtle in nature

I hope my future wife doesn’t feel awkward that my big old south asian family will probably want a 5 day super-colorful wedding extravaganza, and not a quiet white type wedding.

She must feel the joy of someone, as Job, who has lost everything and been blessed (secularly or religiously) to get it back again.
