Some things in life are bad
They can really make you mad
Other things just make you swear and curse
When you’re chewing on life’s gristle
Don’t grumble, give a whistle
And this’ll help things turn out for the best
And

Always look on the bright side of life
Always look on the light side of life

Everything that lives is designed to end. We are perpetually trapped in a never ending spiral of life and death. Is this a curse? Or some kind of punishment? I often think about the god who blessed us with this cryptic puzzle… and wonder if we’ll ever get the chance to kill him.

Bob Dole approves.

It’s Old Greeeeeeeeeegg!

Take care of yourself! Hope to see you back when the stormy waters have calmed!

Bob Dole!

Mate, that is mental.

Gotta tame that strange.

Bottom Quark, you say?

Make my bub bubs bounce.

Well, if Trump manages to tank the dollar as a reserve currency and we experience hyperinflation (fairly likely at this point), you’ll have every opportunity to go back to a barter system because those IOUs will be effectively worthless.

Season 7 and the movie are so close I can fucking taste it.

In the meantime I will lick this comic to satiate my Gumball thirst.

You gotta be careful though, if you get inside the car too quickly, the smell will follow you.

She might wonder why you’re meandering outside the car too long.

I’m not having hopeless thoughts.

I’m having issues with CBT being used as a way to teach people learned helplessness where “you can’t affect other people.” Because, actually, society in aggregate (often called governance) can totally influence, affect, and change other people. We seemingly have given up on holding people who break the social contract accountable for anything while forcing those who do uphold the social contract accountable for everything. Fascism is the end-stage manifestation of that.

In my experience, in practice, it does more to teach people they can’t affect change more than it teaches them they can. It teaches them to be helpless on purpose.

I hate to say it, but now isn’t the only time it’s a problem.

This whole “you just need to practice more CBT skills” has been bullshit for like twenty fucking years or more.

I can “check the facts” all I want, if the facts are that things are irreparably and totally fucked and that this irreparability is hurting me directly I can’t “happy thoughts” my fucking way out of it.

I’m really tired of being told “you can’t change other people, so you need to work on yourself” when other people are allowed to be giant assholes their whole lives who never have to put one ounce of work into themselves and it’s me and everyone else who is a halfway decent person who has to spend their lives fucking working on ourselves.

The system is god damned broken and has been god damned broken when we practically reward the worst of us with never having to try to do better while telling the best of us that we just have to do better.

I’m really, really over it.

This but onions. Just call me Edward Onionhands.

Gooners everywhere rejoice and nut all November long.
