Be careful, or politicians are gonna draft a bill preventing your from applying too much braking force too quickly. Thats about in line with the logic on this bill.

Not a job Biden has the balls for but I'd love to be wrong. Trump is far far from the only fascist in office and the milquetoast Biden response to these people that's been empowering these behaviors was never going to be what the country needed to root out this problem. In fact Id wager more than most elected Democrats and all Republicans are unable or unwilling to fix this.

The half whos never gonna vote for him because hes a democrat. Biden loses votes when he moves rightward and none of the right is coming to fill in the void.

Ive seen clips of him doing that live and I really wonder how no ones clocked him.

Oh absolutely, I dont feel bad about that. But the feeling I get thinking about being with someone who does that kind of stuff is exactly a feeling of insecurity. It's fine and normal, same way its normal to have a little anxiety or a little depression. In healthy doses it's essentially just personality traits, but to me those feeling stem from insecurity. Perhaps it's even innate and not something to be 'fixed' but it still feels like insecurity to me. But I'm realizing that I suppose I can only speak for myself here.

Im someone for whom C is a necessity like the person you're responding too and I think you're 100% right.

It may not be a nessesarily pathological insecurity, but it absolutely is an insecurity.

If I felt more secure I'd probably be able to deal with it. I don't think that means im a necessarily insecure person, or am someone for whom insecurity is a clinical problem, but at least comparatively that makes it an insecurity.

You can get depressed and not have depression, you can get insecure and not be an insecure person, heck you can even maintain a healthy amount of anxiety. These are essentially just human traits and there's no shame in admitting that I have a trait that's at least a little rooted in insecurity so long as it doesn't negatively impact my life.

I just ask that people realize what I realize, which is it's an issue with ME that I'm not secure enough to be with a person who I can see having sex with someone else. I cannot control my feelings but I am responsible for them, or at the very least, other people are not responsible for them(at least in this example anyway it's not as if the of model was having sex with other people AT me.)

Few if any of the classrooms I've been in have landlines, from my schooling to today, speaking of, I do work in classroom setting frequently with my school age clients, and none of that changes the opinion of other professionals who I interact with and what they do for their kids.

Is your kid going to save the day with a cell phone? Do you think in that situation there is not going to be another adult who can call 911?

Yes and yes. Not every emergency effects every room or even every person.

I work in a developmental capacity with people and kids with disabilities. I've had clients in classes with their phones in pocket without issue. The Social Workers, Clinicians, Doctors, and other mental health professionals I work with daily prettymuch all do the same for their children, which came up when that wierd 'national school shooting day' tiktok trend or whatever happend encouraging it. All of this is coming from a professional place from people who actually have kids of varying ability, who get on just fine like that.

And I'm not sorry that upsets you. I am sorry you got a class of shitty kids, but if you think that ends if cell phones are in back packs I'd say think back to when you were in school, I don't imagine there was a lack of horrible kids then either.

Record profits dont make themselves, and the ceos arent making anything, selling anything, or providing any services themselves. They simply sit back and direct all the value created by you and others who did make the product, sell the product, or provide services. It's honestly that simple.

The ratio of how much money you get to keep compared to the total monetary value your labor produces has never been lower. Or to put it in economic speak, 'stock prices have never been higher'.

Lots of notrogon

Frenology 2.0, only difference is the science being misused to fuel it has bigger words and shinier tech.

Idk, airs mostly just nirtogen, can't be too important right?

Our society has the ability to reliable conduct short(er) range space travel. We have split and fused atoms. I refuse to believe anything this trivial was ever infeasible, rich people just use that word instead of saying unprofitable.

Same way caffien is legal. If you downed 7 espresso shots in a row I'd bet you'd also feel some advers effects. Hell down 7 McDoubles and see if you dont feel adverse effects.

Externalities. If you're making enough money you're allowed to rely on the government to clean up your mess.

You don't and that's why cops have told me in plain words if you ever have to shoot someone, its better for you if they don't survive.

Jesus beating up merchants who set up shop outside a temple is canon. We have evidence Jesus has the will and capacity for violence and what he would do in an American state or federal legislative building would probably freak a lot of people out.
