Yes, IM the one who keeps replying and bringing up obsessions. Methinks the lad, lady or another doth protest a wee bit too much.

I mean we have seen this playbook a hell of a lot recently so it wouldn't be too surprising but, do you wear red ball caps by chance? Perhaps like elephants a LOT, donkeys not so much. Does your biggest role model like paving lawns, building ballrooms, fucking kids, starting ~~wars~~ military actions. Have you been inside his Nazi shrine? Has he showed you his meinkempf?

No?

Not you?

Probably for the better that way, but hey no one is gonna be surprised if it all is true.

See it's not hard to disagree with something someone said is it? What you don't disagree that sounds like you?

That's very interesting isn't it.

Also this brownie is pretty good.

That's a lot of words for someone who claims they aren't a control freak obsessed compulsive sociopath.

Over online bickering with a stranger.

Get help. Seriously. At least For the people that have to put up with you in rl.

Lol I'm fucking delightful. Big ole god damned teddy bear over here. Quite loveable really. Generally people like having me show up. I'm a good time. Probably because I choose who I spend my time with. People who know how to disagree with someone and call them out on the bullshit that sometimes comes out of their mouths.

Why do you need my approval so much? You are clearly highly obsessed with me and that's okay, as long as I'm suffering your attention focused on me, I'm confident I'm saving other people from your attention that may not handle it with the stride I am able to, so really why not enjoy this?

I mean it's okay if you want my approval but you have some work to do. I'm okay with the process, these things are hard for some and I've got some time for it still.

Everything okay in your life? Times are pretty tough right now, it's okay to talk to someone, a professional is highly recommended but I can at least listen, and sometimes that's a big part of what someone needs. It's often surprising how much relief some people get just from saying the words out loud to someone who is listening.

So I'm listening, but please seek help from a professional if it's not enough to just externalize your frustrations. Life is a challenge even in the best of times, and these are not the best of times for sure
