Reply #25: that's exactly it. And that's why it was done. [View All]

and I refuse to feel anything over ANYTHING any more.

I'm sick of having my emotions tweaked every which direction by all these different folks who have absolutely no compulsion to stoop to the lowest, nastiest form of human behavior possible in order to only do one thing --- stir up emotions in people.

NO MORE EMOTIONS to ANYTHING.

I am sickened by all of this. But most of all I am having a realization that we are all in way way over our heads.

Things have gotten so fucking bizarre that all I can think of now is how do we get out of this?

How do we, as a country, for starters, heal?

If 9/11 couldn't bring us together successfully, what will?

That's a frightening question, but the only one worth asking now.

Will it take the complete destruction of the United States by the rest of the world in order for us to quit hating each other?

I've never in my life thought that the end of the United States by violence from the outside was possible, but now I'm starting to think that it's inevitable.
