Whichever one I'm attracted to

Hobbies aren't supposed to be profitable

Today on Fox News

This one is taking a nap in the snow. Was it a good nap? Did they have nice dreams? We'll investigate!

I didn't know he had a disability, and all I thought was "That kid is really proud of his father, good for him"

Try to find a reason to act that isn't outrage, that isn't healthy

I'm not claiming you're anything, but I've heard similar thoughts from trans people while they were still figuring stuff out.

American opposition to the convention stems primarily from political and religious conservatives. For example, The Heritage Foundation considers that "a civil society in which moral authority is exercised by religious congregations, family, and other private associations is fundamental to the American order"

No surprise there

How do I cope?

The media sells the idea the world is on fire. By a lot of measures, humanity is the best it's ever been:

Things do seem bad, things do need fixing. My advice is to pick one singular part of the world you want to improve and figure out how to fix it. Something like abolishing prison labor or environmentalism. It needs to be something you can make a noticeable dent in, where you can see your own contribution to the effort.

Don't change tack every time something new like Isreal-Hamas or the scuffle at the US-Mexico border happens. You picked that one thing to fix, remember? And unless you plan on going down to the border with a gun, how do you plan on making a real difference? If you can't make a difference, why let it bother you?

I thought the comp cut was the most telling part.

"Stock price is low, so you should reduce employee's stock options"

He sees employees' stock options as competition for the stocks. Add in the job cuts he wants and the company will be selling all those employee's unvested stock options at a low price.

And of course stock prices shoot up soon after job cuts

You still need to treat symptoms

And some people with authorized means couldn't get it because of the idiots

It could be, but not yet. According to the wikipedia article for the missile, Russia had been avoiding launching them near where a Patriot is set up.

They want to keep its perfect record of destroying apartment buildings
