I Believe… [Let People Enjoy the Goddamn Wedding, Already!]

…that Jordon Peterson is Rush Limbaugh for rapists.

...that all the pressure in the world on current legislators to change the gun laws won't change the gun laws. New legislators, ones not embedded in the system, are the only road to change in our laws. Focus on that or you're just barking into a large bucket so you can hear that grand echoey sound and feel righteous.

…that, while I didn't watch the latest Royal Wedding, I'm not going to piss all over people who love that stuff. The bitterness and acrimony of people who can't do anything but take a dump on someone enjoying the idea of romance and love in our crushingly depressing times is just more clod of dung on the heap.

…that one difference between the immature and the mature is the ability to self reflect honestly, recognize that it is a human tendency to be selfish and self-involved, and to balance that with better impulses whenever possible.

…that there is something ugly about watching a criminal rehabilitate without suffering some punishment for crime but isn't rehabilitation the point? Or are we just so similar to the Puritans of old and desire nothing more than to see suffering inflicted for entertainment?
