Most of the folks I talk to hear agree with me that things are going wrong, or that x,y, or z is a problem, but not enough to do anything about it. I have heard a few times that, " I want to do something, but I have to protect myself."

I used that term to show that they are privileged folks who likely won't be directly targeted by the administration, at least at first.

Lol no, but that's funny. I just meant Joaquin Phoenix stole the show. It was the first time I watched a movie and hated someone like that. Then I realized he's a really likeable guy, and I hated the character because he was well written and he gave such a good performance.

Any conversation about the acting in this movie that only talks about Crowe has missed the forest for the trees.

You are correct, this is not new, nor does it bring any new information to light.

My guess is he wants to live forever because he feels he has made no contribution to the world, or does not feel a sense of fulfillment and purpose from raising his family. Maybe he feels cracking the secret could be his contribution, or maybe he thinks he can find meaning in his life, given enough time.

That's because they are mostly Russian assets who want the US to lose influence and become weaker.

In his defense, it was a big rock.

Yeah, no. Fuck my hate filled, transphobic parents and Kool aid drinking ultra conservative siblings. They knew exactly who they were voting for, and they can get fucked.

I studied politics, and even then I never wanted to run. I just wanted to be a staffer and work on policy and tactics.

I left politics because I felt I couldn't help people, and inter party politics were not something I was interested in. I went back to school so I could help people more directly as a nurse.

I don't think I'm a great candidate, but I feel like I have to do something. No one is coming to save us, we have to so it ourselves.

I signed up on the first website, still haven't heard anything. Anyone know who I should contact to follow up?
