  • You’ll tell yourself that because you want to be like that, so you strive for it. You need to believe you’ll escape your essential humanity. You can’t. You won’t. Rich people are entirely the same exact creature we are. Cannot purchase your way out of that. Call history fairy tails all you want, but you won’t convince me, I’ve been on both sides of the coin. I know from first hand experience how utterly basic and human rich people are.

    They are not unique or special in any way. They are just people. They have more nice stuff and they have power, but they are still just the same species of clever ape we all are. If they all died, they would just be replaced. We replace billionaires all the time. We treat the money as more important than any meat behind it anyway.

    I’ve been firmly diagnosed with ADHD, once when I wasn’t even being tested for it, but ADHD markers were high enough that they asked if I was seeking treatment for it. That being said, I can read books just fine. I’ve read tons, and not just fiction. I have several nonfiction books about scientific topics I’m into. I’m currently reading a book about British royalty just because I like David Mitchell’s comedy.

    I cannot imagine that I’m special. I’m certain that there are other ADHD power readers. It’s a way to hyper focus after all. I know sitting to read is a common problem area, but not always.







  • Trump was able to gather the hordes of weirdos in a way none of those other movements could. For whatever reason, he was an exceptionally powerful populist, and the other craven greed monsters want that power bad. It’s been shown that that magic doesn’t run off on them though and it seems to be flaking off trump very quickly these days.

    There will always be another eventually, but it can’t be denied that Trump’s star is falling, and the Republicans have no one able to gather the hordes like trump could at the moment. If they lose their ass in November, it’s very possible that it takes them quite a while to regroup in any real way. Their penchant for infighting will slow things down.
