A great man once said "I've put those days behind me. But the bitter wisdom that one has been a fool is not without value."
I never said that I haven't done stupid things. I've done a GREAT deal of stupid things in my life.
Having wrestled with demons and come out alive on the other side, I have quite a lot of empathy for anybody who is struggling with any kind of addiction that is destroying themselves and hurting everyone who cares or used to care about them. I'd lost friends in the past to addictions as well, whether they're no longer with us now, or they're fixtures in the correctional system for the rest of their lives because of it.
Overcoming addiction is not merely about removing the act of consumption itself. It's facing all of the bad things you've done to yourself and others, accepting those consequences, fixing what you can and doing all of the above without stumbling and relapsing back into those addictions that were destroying yourself in the first place.
You'll notice that I've never once removed my posts here. Every drunken rant and mindless rambling I've ever made here is still available for perusal. Just ask T... He's threatened me on quite a few occasions to post them here again, and for a while there he would purposefully dig up threads for everyone to re-hash when my sobriety was in its infancy.
Let's just say, that you don't come off very brave right now with your callous and self-righteous dismissal of something which you luckily know nothing about.
So no... I will not let you steer this conversation off topic.
You are fully behind the idea of pumping everyone full of Lithium in our drinking water, even people who voted for Hillary, in order to ensure that Trump voters get their dose.
Yet on the exact same day you said that, in a different thread, you said that Americans were cowards because they don't start punching their bosses for pay raises.
Talk about sending mixed messages.
Nevermind the fact that most large companies don't even work that way anymore. Not that you'd know it, but when you work in retail all of the pay for non-salaried employees these days is handled by computer algorithms. We've got to be fair to everyone, so everybody starts at the same pay and gets the same raise, no matter how much or less harder they work than anybody else. Punching your boss in this case would accomplish nothing other than losing your shitty job and likely going to jail.

Stone claims Mueller probe might be plot to make Pelosi, Clinton president
Roger Stone, a former informal adviser to President Trump's campaign, on Thursday claimed that he believes special counsel Robert Mueller's probe into Russia's election meddling is a partisan plot to make Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and possibly even Hillary Clinton president.

I'd actually love for Hillary to run again. So would Trump.
Even better if Pelosi is on the ticket.
I think Jenny from the Block is going to have some words about that though.

That's a Trump lover's sad fantasy, isn't it? And Stone knows it.
I don't think they actually believe it would be possible but the imagery is too hard for them to ignore, or at least not bath in for a couple seconds - Trump revenge porn.

Quote:6ixStringJack, I’ve fired a hundred thousand bullets – some miss, but not most. Did I go and collect the bullets from the missed shots and properly dispose of them to keep hidden my shamefully bad aim? No way! My name and phone # wasn’t on any of them so why would I care? But every miss tells me how I should correct myself, improve my marksmanship. 6ix, you have fired a hundred thousand comments – many missed by a mile, some even hit targets you should never hit (imagine you are a soldier killing a kid with bullet). But it would be a waste of your time for you to erase those comments because none of them have your real name or phone # attached. What is not a waste of time is for the real you, the living person behind the pseudonym 6ixStringJack, learning from your misses. You have been told many times when and where you missed, but you deny that you missed. Please stop doing that.

No goddamn way. You missed and it is obvious to me where your bullets landed even if not to you because you are too far away or too damn lazy.

The Goodness Paradox: The Strange Relationship Between Virtue and Violence in Human Evolution

es/580447/
There is paradox about humans. To get a boss to behave like a gentleman, the employees must be brutes with the boss when he misbehaves. But I have seen zero push-back against bad bosses by frightened, intimidated, and easily cowed American employees. The only employees that push-back are unionized. But unions are anathema to Republicans, which means Republicans have got no way to fight back against unfair company policies and a bad boss or CEO, other than beat him to death and hope his replacement has greater generosity and better behavior.

Wrong again. Some people here know me. Probably not many who still post here, but without giving away any details I'll just say that my brother was once a pretty important member of this site back in the day and knows quite a few of the old guard personally. I'm quite certain that I've put him in an embarrassing position once or twice with my past behavior here. He's a better man than you or I though, fortunately for me.
And as for missing, I rarely miss. Just because you or Marcos or any of our friends here who fear Putin like he's the big bad of the week don't agree with something I say doesn't mean I'm wrong.
I guess I'll just point out once again that I'm the only poster here who isn't a completely static character. I've improved my own life 1000% in the last two years. You'll note that I'm no longer bitching about any of the ills of the world as if they somehow effect me personally. They don't. I'm living a perfectly copacetic life. One would think with all that money you have that you'd have better stuff to do with your life than bitch every single day on a forum that has 8 regular posters left. Everyone else here bitches about the same old shit day in and day out. The only place that isn't a broken record in the RWED is the Garden and Rain thread.
Oh... and I'm also the only one here that has gone out of their way on more than one occasion to admit when I am wrong.

You said that all the Texas Republicans you know could use lithium. You never said anything about disagreeing with the article in question. It was only after I called you out for saying something extremely fascist that you backpedaled and brought up the parts late in the article where there was some potential negatives about putting p

Oh... and about your article. That sounds extremely interesting. Thanks for sharing that.
I'm sure I'm going to have a lot to say about it once I've digested it.
Honestly, it deserves a thread of it's own.
