  • We’ve spent Trillions to counter Russia overvthe decades.

    To support Ukraine in a proxy war that weakens, destabilizes or destroys Russia where no American soldiers die and we get to test out our arsenal in a real world scenario is a worthwhile investment not to mention the moral and humanitarian aspect.

    Do we have problems at home? Yes but that’s never been a good enough reason to reduce military spending.

    I do think the military budget is out of control and more money should be appropriated to the issues that matter like healthcare but at this moment in time we should absolutely continue to support Ukraine.

    We are the world leaders and other countries follow. We can’t let our support erode. We can’t let Russia win this one.



  • In case anyone doesn’t understand how all this works:

    Republicans make outlandish, grandiose, patently untrue, vitriolic and inflammatory statements.

    This is picked up by right wing “news” outlets like FOX, OAN, Newsmax, etc. and “reported” on and repeated. To the people who watch these sources they believe its legitimate, real and true.

    These people ONLY get their information from these sources. They are massive echo chambers. There is no fact checking, no competeting opinion and no misinformation correction. It is in fact the purpose.

    This is meant to stir anger, resentment and many other immoral narratives and it works.

    Post birth abortions are OF COURSE not a thing but that truth will be lost on the people that consume and believe this bullshit.


  • It kind of sounds like you’re describing bipolar disorder. These cycles of up and down.

    You said this low period always happens right after your most creative periods. Depressive cycles typically last longer than the manic phase which is what you described.

    Not a doctor obviously but I lived with it undiagnosed for a very long time. Maybe read up on it and see if it fits your experience.

    Whatever it is I hope you find some relief.
