Sounds like you need to make some major changes in your life. If you aren’t valuing your time left on earth then you almost certainly aren’t resonating with your own desires and passions. Of course it’s easier said than done and I have zero context for your circumstances, but it sounds like you’ve got a lot of work to do.

There isn’t any fairness in the arc of our lives, there isn’t anything to figure out when we lose people. Sometimes the best of us are gone early and the worst can outlive everyone. Nothing to understand there, justice is absent when death is the subject.

I’m sure you have your reasons to feel this way, and I get it. I genuinely hope and encourage you to find and bring the meaning to your own life that sounds like it’s missing.

I’ve gone through a lot of loss and my own situation right now is a complete disaster, but I will forever refuse to succumb to an existence that doesn’t resonate with my own meaning. I’d encourage you to do the same.

Change is a guarantee, embrace it. Your life is as valuable as any one else that has ever lived. Don’t tell yourself otherwise. Embrace your own agency, life doesn’t just happen to you, do something with it, do anything.

You deserve to give and receive love.

Yes. Fearmonger more. You keep up that driving! The rest of us will take advantage of more spare time to read while we cruise smoothly by the cars sitting in traffic. Truly a nightmare.

Zappa even has a song about this very subject, from 1967.

I hope they are crushed, learn nothing and double down on it by running with Trump again, this time fully campaigning from prison.

Her organization failed. As the head of the organization her job is to accept the failure and resign. Doesn’t matter the exact reason, she needs to take the fall. Trump never should have been cleared to speak if his safety wasn’t guaranteed. And I fucking hate the guy, but the secret service fucked up, a whole bunch of them should probably be fired, top brass first. Absolutely absurd to imagine they should keep their job after this. Normal people get fired for undercooking chicken, missing a day of work or delivering a package to the wrong place, what are we protecting here?

She should get a promotion maybe? Some extra paid vacation time to sort it out and deal with all the extra stress? Several people are in here with this ridiculous take, I don’t get it.

She failed as the head of an extremely important high stakes organization. She no longer has the faith of those she reports to. Should have offered her resignation the day after it happened. That would have been at least been honorable, anything less is ridiculous.

Yeah I was looking for someone to mention this… Like, sure, the guy could be a frothing at the mouth racist, that’s certainly possible. Or… There is some personal beef, without more information I dunno how everyone is so sure. He doesn’t say anything overtly racist, we know what it looks like but that isn’t the only possibility. Is there something I missed that justifies everyone’s confidence here?

When was this? Pretty sure we didn’t have anything like this anywhere near us growing up in MA… Although there are always weird exceptions. I foolishly feel like I gotta mention that not everyone who grew up in Mass had experiences anything like this. I’m about to be 40 fwiw.

Great podcast! I immediately checked to see if they had a new episode after reading this headline, gotta check it out. Thinking the same thing about the fake shutdowns… One of these days he is finally gonna be right tho.

…like gluttons. Finished that for you!
