Hard News: Hate and guns, in reply to
Good mental health is a community thing.
Except when communities are non existent.
I would argue we have lost a large part of being a community, with the recent incursion of the money thing into our lives stepping into the void left by gods, post WWII
And in NZ we have cheerleaders for the priority of the fiscal, running govt! Trying to turn every aspect of our lives into a profitable financial exercise, and lie about their goals as well.(they consider themselves expert at finessing their agenda)I can only speak in general terms about the US.There may be some joy in some of the people but its swimming in a sea of comfortable misery, if you can afford it. Otherwise your living off tips and handouts...begging, conning.
My impression on my visits to the US even pre 9/11. -

the shocking story.
Its a lot more than that.
I'm sickened. -
And then there's shit like this The past 30 years in this country has just been a chorus of arseholes trashing the social justice gains made by their parents and grandparents, just cause it could potentially ruin their chances of making money
Its time to swing that pendulum the other way .Balance the cost/ income equation a little more fairly across the population spectrum.
And stop the race to the bottom in society , theres a lot of problems coming down the track for humanity on this rock. And might be an idea to develop and nurture common bonds before that.
We cant just rely on the Elon Musk's of this world to sort it out. We're all in this one! -
the risk of diversion in the New Zealand setting
Sorry the what? in the where?
Or is this just the made up bullshit these fuckers pull out of their "jobsworths" arses. -
nostalgically pogoing to Citizen Band
Yeah thats funny 'cause them and punk were uneasy bedfellows.
I just wish they're paid me more, no misty eyed nostalgia for me.
And the dumb arses went to Oz of all places, when they found NZ too small and wanted to spread their musical wings. A holiday would have been a better option.
But ya know bridge... water ... etc... -
