I'm pathologically inclined to coerce others into helping me.

It's a pretty great gift.

Long-term hurt/comfort relationships used to appeal to me, but now I feel that they're sort of... disgusting. And it's self-centered and stupid to think that inserting yourself in someone's life will magically make them better, unless you're willing and prepared for a shitton of physical and emotional taxation/sacrifice that I don't think the average person is capable of.

Selflessness! Yay! which in turns becomes emotional martyrdom if left unchecked!

It's a Stupid Sacrifice because it's not likely to actually help anybody.

I dunno. I think that just trying to be a good friend is a lot better for people than you're giving credit for. It's not the end all be all of healing, but it can be nice.

You know what's fun?

Getting someone a really good gift to make them feel guilty that they didn't get you something just as good.

Today was a good day. Got to go out with my wife have lunch, get new work shoes and socks, get a book, and traded in a game and got another. Birthday money is great.

Well, what qualifies as a social circle?
I dunno, atleast 2 other people you know in person and spend a few hours of your day with atleast once a week?

...watching mothy's videos is strangely therapeutic...even so many of the songs are about murder and sin and "evil"...

And of course, it just leaves me curious about the unmade PV's. -_-

A place to hire boats. Like the swan boats at Boston Lake. They kind of suck in Rollercoaster Tycoon, but nostalgia

What I'm saying is even "trying to be a good friend" is too much for a lot of people. Are you willing to be up at 3am listening to them bawl their eyes out and yell stupid, irrational things? How about doing that every other day? If you don't they might feel betrayed and resent you, or worthless and undeserving of friendship, or both.

There was a time when I could not carry a conversation because all I could think of, literally, was stupid shit nobody knew how to deal with, including people I formerly considered closer than family. Nobody wants to be around that person, it's no fun. Plus anything you say has the possibility of making them worse.

So, you know what rather irks me? The assumption that tyranny is the natural form of government. It's taken for granted that every government wants to be The Party, that every politician wants to be Big Brother. It's just understood that any change to any current system will turn it into Ingsoc. If the government gets power, it'll turn into the Party, if the government taxes, the system will turn into Ingsoc, if the person you're running against gets elected, if the labor unions get shut down, if you don't vote, etc, etc, etc, the whole thing turns into Oceania. The underlying assumption of current political thought is that only by dethroning and de-empowering people can Ingsoc be avoided; you don't vote for a candidate, you vote against the other fellow; you don't vote someone into office, you vote someone else out.
