Going out and actually meeting people, I generally like them. You find most of the time they’re also just trying to get through their lives and managing the best they can. There is a lot more love than hate out there, if you just but look.

Dealing with people in politics or other identity based topics. I would say strong dislike. You find people will hear what they want to hear and try and make your opinions fit in a pre labelled box. Strong beliefs also cause folks to turn a blind eye to evils in their own group. I just wish people were devoted to making these groups worthy of their unyielding support. The world may be a far, far better place.

I try to apply that last paragraph to myself as much as I can. My only exception is sports. I feel that is a safe space to let my inner tribalism have some freedom. But outside of that, I try to be most critical of my institutions and ideologies. In hopes I don’t become the person I hate.

Sorry, I went on a bit of a ramble there.

This and Watership Down are two of my favourite movies that fit a genre that seems to hardly exist any more. A movie where the journey is the story. Love them. Also I will continue to be in denial about my age thank you very much!

Sometimes I binge bad driving people, and the amount of people who don’t understand that lorries have blind spots astounds me.

At a guess, I’d imagine it would be the no “false idol” thing.

It’s just a meme that is used when someone stereotypes a group of people (not intending to offend), but the stereotype is is accurate.

basically “how dare you stereotype us, but also yes”.

I do wonder how much is the breed and how much is shitty owners being attracted to perceived scary breeds. My guess would be a bit of both.

I mean, yeah…

Too soon! ;-;
