A friend of mine passed away over 10 years ago now from a motorcycle accident. She pops into my head all the goddamn time. It used to be painful, but now I just accept that a part of her will be with me until the day I die, and honestly? There's a comfort in that.
The love never goes away.

NYT is compromised junk anymore. For every reasonable article, there's a slew of trash opinions and clearly paid for propaganda

Steve's dope. He's an ally, he looks out for his friends, and he tries to do his best every day. We could all learn a lot from Steve.

But yeah, you see the signs in little things. Like gaming culture. If you aren't first, you're last. If you aren't completely dominating, you're weak. Our relationship with failure is *not* a healthy one.

Americans are the most propagandized people on the planet. I firmly believe this. We're taught a fiction about the world, and then corporate propaganda is constantly there to make us want more, and be terrified of losing what we have. It teaches complete subservience to those with more than us.

It goes deep, my man. We're the ones who coined "the war on x" where x is drugs, obesity, etc. Everything's a war. Everything's a fight.
Our schools' grading scales emphasize competition over results. We throne the top winner and anyone who isn't the best sucks.
We're afraid of falling behind

I do wish people would be a little kinder. We're all so easily angered online, and there's so much *stuff* that it's hard to catch all the details.

have they considered putting efforts into making the flying experience a much less miserable experience thus decreasing the level of stress that everyone feels so that the environment is more conducive towards a kind one?
no? Just beg people to not get mad as they're getting screwed?
cool I guess
