@sickburnbro It's a hell of a trick to be able to accurately predict the behavior of anyone completely unlike me in any way, though, like EPA video guy.

There are tons of phenomena that are hard for me to understand well enough to make them usable in thought. For example: there's this comprehensive realignment of all kinds of people following the election. Imagine a guy who sat in his office for years and didn't feel discomfort at being a tool, but now suddenly he actually has the fire to get out there and shitcan a bunch of things I don't like. That's like transforming into a different animal before my eyes.

I appreciate such things, and my confusion doesn't bring me down or anything (I have some bird ideas), but paying attention right now is producing a similar sensation to watching movies at age 4 and not really getting any of it.
