There is never enough talking about it if it's still bothering you in my opinion the buck up and be stoic about it and deal with it cuz it's population control kind of attitude is hurting more people than those who want to express themselves. What you are feeling is human.

I think it's related to denial of the permissive state of our nation and that people think they can act harm kill especially for racist, gender and ethnic agendas. These people have always been there but they have been given permission now to act like what they truly are. Empty.

The internet or the web I think you're referring to the web in that case I would say so long as markup was well-formed and CSS was used old-school separate style and JS was flourish not the driver you'd have a more accessible interoperable information rich useful and usable web.

It can be hurtful especially when it's your idea and original. I remember when other people began taking words verbatim out of my mouth who were higher up the corporate chain and never gave me credit. I couldn't stay in those environments.
I do that sometimes when I'm rushing to get a thought out but usually I like to be inclusive. In some ways this phenomenon could well be lack of social interaction and punditry

Unless you have pre-existing conditions of a significant nature or are on medications I hope that reading the top symptoms will help you find some comfort. It can manifest in different ways or not at all but seriously infection will. If you want some links I'm happy to help :-)

Quantifying intelligence is difficult and imprecise, but there are patterns. Intuitive intelligence has different behaviors for example. I wish I were smart. Life might be easier for me and all around me. And the message went right over his smart head.

I suck at compartmentaliztion. Do not separate life, study, work. I work long-term big problems with singular focus, use uncoventional, bizarre and others insights to highly productive results. I am unstable, make awful decisons day to day. No assessment of me uses "smart"

Smart, as is measured now, uses MMPI, IQ, spatial reasoning, math, language and behavior to qualify "smart." Smart people are extremely adept at compartmentalization, life/work balance. Problem solving day to day issues with practical solutions. As such, they tend to be stable.

A few days ago a man was lamenting that the horror in TN was "just another day." Responder wrote "Media wants headlines." I disagreed as this is historically a passive means of assmilitation of others. He said "You are really trying hard to sound smart." I wrote "I'm not smart."

1. We all lie. The first lie is to ourselves 2. Mythology is revered more than fact. 3. We are the top of the food chain not. 4. We think animals are lower creatures 5. We believe the theory of mind is concrete 6. Stoicism is thought to be power 7. Humans believe we don't change.

There is one important lesson to take from Twitter's platform for Trump since 2015. He gave permission for the underpinning of America's break down of race, class, gender, ethnicity to show the true nature of humanity's primary flaws. That helps us to to recognize some of them.

My point. White men arrived in the 1700s.

The 60s? I'd say since the 1700s.

I'm wearing a bracelet right now that says "You were given this life because you are strong enough to live it." FWIW. :)

My survival instinct isn't that strong. My relentless personality is what has kept me. Also, 21 years on Prozac caused major depressive disorder when I am not MDD, but have Major Depressive Episodes. Two different animals. MDD is chronic. MDE is < 2 weeks. I come back every time.

Worry I will. Benzos are the worst and deadliest withdrawal full stop. The longer on them and higher the dose, downright deadly. Benzodiazapine Withdrawal Syndrome is a medical emergency that can lead to status epilepticus and death. I hope you have consistent access. Take care!
Replying to @DanBeThyName
How on earth do you survive that? That's seriously worrisome. Stressors like that lead to PTSD, heart conditions, seizures and death. I hope you are able to get out or have some way of dealing.

It sounds like you have some coping skillz there that seem to help? I hope so. I don't seem to be able to manage that too well.

Groceries are a big trigger for me. Anywhere I can't see an exit and there are a lot of people. But not airplanes. Weird, that. Go figure? Thank goodness for delivery as I don't go to groceries anymore. Bad lighting and confinement do me in.
