@BirdKeeper89 @alittleleader Perhaps you've heard of "doing things later, but being gracious?"

If not, you should check it out. Shit really slaps.

@BirdKeeper89 @alittleleader Imagine someone wrote you a 3-5 page letter. Would you bitch and cry that it was too much to read, too?

Maybe the friend is having difficult times because she expects the entire world to cater to her, and she’s discovering that it doesn’t.

@NWDisorder1111 @MylesDaley Hit dogs gonna holler.

@LeslieRodr47139 @AgathaAkaahar You know a lot about the people and their internal lives for somebody who’s just read a tweet.

@BirdKeeper89 @alittleleader The friend the poetry was given to expressed a desire to read some of it sometime, though, so, guess your particular feelings aren’t really relevant to this situation.

@moorehn I think COVID hastened it, but I think it's been getting incrementally worse since the Facebook- and Instagram- and TikTok- and, yes, Twitter-driven enshittification of interactions.

The belief that everybody else is just an NPC is bleeding over into "live" interactions, too.

@NWDisorder1111 @MylesDaley Found the boomer whose kids won't talk to them.

@MAGAMAHACindy @krubner You worked your way up and then ensured that nobody could build small houses in your neighborhoods by voting for restrictive zoning that propped up the value of your homes.

Yeah, life’s hard. You also made it harder.

@StanWillenbring @giveashitnature The young ones around the tall one are probably growth from root suckers spread by the parent tree - so clones of the parent - they wouldn’t pollinate one another.

@toofaroutmann @JustJoshinNH Yeah kinda makes you wish people had standards they expected a candidate to meet, don’t it?

[Olympus Is Laughing (@isolympus.bsky.social) @IsOlympus]

@toofaroutmann @JustJoshinNH Why not “respect the voters’ choice” that put Trump in office, then?

Fucking wild to argue that somebody is unfit to be in power while simultaneously arguing that there should be no standards for people running for office.

[Olympus Is Laughing (@isolympus.bsky.social) @IsOlympus]

@toofaroutmann @JustJoshinNH So you agree with me that people with significant known character flaws shouldn’t be the people we’re pinning our hopes on as candidates?

Cool, thanks for conceding.

[Olympus Is Laughing (@isolympus.bsky.social) @IsOlympus]

@toofaroutmann @JustJoshinNH So you ARE unfamiliar with the concepts of “before,” and “after.”

SAD.

[Olympus Is Laughing (@isolympus.bsky.social) @IsOlympus]

@toofaroutmann @JustJoshinNH Clinton had (has) many faults, but it’s pretty hard for people to refuse to vote for him because of his Epstein connection when that connection happened after his time in office.

Are you really unfamiliar with the linear passage of time?

[Olympus Is Laughing (@isolympus.bsky.social) @IsOlympus]

@toofaroutmann @JustJoshinNH Has every democrat elected before Graham Platner had a secret Nazi tattoo that was widely reported before the election?

Obviously the fuck not.

[Olympus Is Laughing (@isolympus.bsky.social) @IsOlympus]

@MankindVsModFem @AllisonRFloyd @Ally_Sammarco Still coming across as very emotional.

[Olympus Is Laughing (@isolympus.bsky.social) @IsOlympus]

@MankindVsModFem @AllisonRFloyd @Ally_Sammarco You seem hysterical.

[Olympus Is Laughing (@isolympus.bsky.social) @IsOlympus]

@toofaroutmann @JustJoshinNH I bet you'll find that actually trying to articulate your point will be rewarding for you, and everyone around you.

[Olympus Is Laughing (@isolympus.bsky.social) @IsOlympus]

@MankindVsModFem @AllisonRFloyd @Ally_Sammarco First, I'm pretty sure reality isn't confined to a shoebox.

Second, why would I be using a flashlight in broad daylight?

Third, you should try being less hysterical. Smile more.

[Olympus Is Laughing (@isolympus.bsky.social) @IsOlympus]

@toofaroutmann @JustJoshinNH Far as I can tell, you didn't actually make one. Would you like to try? I'm here to support your growth, friend.
