  • Now I’m curious what is happening at your apartment that could possibly be worse than this.

    I’m normally about respecting people’s wishes, but that is so unhealthy I’d be scrubbing everything despite her objections. Or at least overhauling the room you’re stuck in when she’s not looking. Let her yell at you.

    After the Kent State Massacre I don’t think there is any doubt in our minds that the military will fire on us. In addition we have an incredibly militarized police force that also has complete authority and desire to kill citizens. I don’t foresee the two clashing, which would be our only hope of a relatively bloodless revolution.

    We just assume every country is like that.















  • People can get accustomed to their environment, even actively harmful environments. Choosing to stay where you are is an exertion of control for people who currently (and often for most of their lives) have very little control over their lives.

    You can see it in everybody, just not to such a self-damaging extent. I can’t blame anyone stuck in it, the same way I don’t blame people who stay in abusive homes.

    As someone who was homeless before, I really appreciate what you’ve done to help.
