I couldn’t for most of my life, but then I just tried about two years ago and it clicked. I’ve been able to ever since. It’s a cognitive skill. Once you learn it, it’s like riding a bike. I hate to make it sound as exclusive as it is, because that’s what turned me off of it to begin with, but it really is true. Just figure it out and it’s like a code that you can decode at will.

And why should he not? Obama runs the Shadow Government, along with Hillary. They head the Jewish cabal that owns the world. They sent Joe Biden and Kamala Harris to rape our babies. Jeffery Epstein was a Jewish mole who was trafficking our children and turning them away from Christ. Bernie Sanders is a Jewish scientist who has been secretly turning the mosquitoes gay so they can spread the gay agenda.

Not that hard.

I get her username reference! Gnome Anne’s Inn from Quest for Glory V: Dragon Fire.

I don’t really see how that’s possible, but okay.

Okay, well, I guess stupid people gonna suffer then.

I don’t see how you could survive a shotgun blast to the back or top of your mouth, much less a bomb. At the very least, the brain stem is vaporized, and you can’t survive without that. I suppose if you turned the barrel to the side and just blew out your cheek and jaw, perhaps, but that’s being stupid.

Yeah, my point was simply that it’s not hard to kill yourself, like the OP asserted. Obviously, many people would have other considerations in mind (e.g. pain, the state of your body afterwards, etc).

It is NOT difficult to kill yourself intentionally, at all.

• Make a simple, strong slip knot to use as a noose, secure it somewhere that will support your body weight, tie your hands behind your back so that you can't easily get out of the restraints, and jump off a ledge of some kind. It won't break your neck and you'll die agonizingly, but you will almost certainly die of asphyxiation. Even more effective if you tie yourself up in weights and jump into deep water.
• Shotgun. Easily procurable in America. Stick in mouth with buckshot and pull trigger. Messy, but effective.
• Lots of ways to make powerful bombs with materials you can find in stores. Make one and set it off in your mouth.
• Lock yourself in a room with carbon monoxide. So long as no one's coming to get you, it's a nice, peaceful way to go out.
• Snort a sugar cube's worth of fentanyl.
• Sever any major artery and get in a bathtub full of water so the wound can't seal easily. Cope with the pain until you pass out. As long as no one finds you, you dead.

I could go on, but I think I've been morbid enough.

Thankfully, suicidal impulses are just that: impulses. They are relatively short-lived (10-20 minutes on average) and then they pass. You may still be depressed, but the urge to end it all is no longer there, for most people. One of the best things you can do when you're feeling suicidal is just to go to sleep. When you wake up, you'll likely feel better. The vast majority of people who attempt suicide and live regret it almost immediately, and most of them do not attempt it again.

However, there are people who enter long suicidal states, where they've genuinely made up their mind to end their lives. With these people, no matter what the psychiatric intervention is, short of permanently restraining them, they will almost always find a way to kill themselves. The truth is you cannot stop a person who is truly intent on ending their life. And I for one am very thankful for that, because living should always be a choice. We should not be in the business of forcing people to live torturous, agonizing lives from which there is no real escape or remedy. Everyone should have the option of "getting off the ride" if they so choose. Ultimately, it's no one's business but their own.

From what I know about people who voted for Trump most of them are well aware of that

Mhrm…I don’t know that I agree with that. Most Trumpers I’ve talked to have dismissed obvious criticisms of him as overblown slander and have cast him as a respectable businessman who genuinely wants to help the working and middle class. The one thing they seem to accept is that he’s rude and lewd, but they’re willing to forgive him for that.

Sadly, Trump’s success has shown me that when it comes to character judgment, the general population is severely lacking.

They may be internally consistent with their own ideologies sometimes, but the real problem is that they make the mistake of believing that Trump and the people supporting him have ideologies consistent with theirs. The rude awakening will be that they voted for simple racists who want to kick non-Whites out of America for absolutely no reason at all.

I suspect that if she is allowed to stay in the country it will be because of the media coverage her case has gotten, not because ICE sees that she’s one of the “good ones.” For her and her family though, it will be irrefutable proof that they were right to place their faith in Trump. For that reason alone, I hope she’s deported; because it will shatter that faith for them and many other Trump supporters. I know it’s wrong, but I think it will serve a greater purpose.

Personality disorders aren't like "regular" mental health disorders, because with most disorders, it's the patient who suffers. With personality disorders, those suffering are usually the ones around the patient.

In 2024, toward the end of his presidency, Joe Biden’s administration granted her a permit allowing her to work legally in the US. She had also been navigating the process to obtain legal permanent US residency, colloquially referred to as a green card, for years.

Nonetheless, instead of supporting the candidate Biden endorsed to succeed him, then vice-president Kamala Harris, Olivera’s husband supported Trump in last November’s White House election. He told KGTV that Trump’s promises to deport criminals en masse – despite his own May 2024 conviction of felony falsification of business records – appealed to both Francisco and Cynthia. And, echoing other mixed immigration status families who have had members affected by Trump’s policies, the Oliveras did not believe she would be hurt by her lack of legal US residency.

They learned she would in fact be affected by her immigration status when she went for a green card interview in Chatsworth, California, on 13 June. She was detained there by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) agents, according to a change.org petition pleading for compassion on behalf of Cynthia.

Olivera has since been transferred to an Ice detention center in El Paso, Texas, to await being deported.

Speaking to KGTV over a video call from the El Paso facility, Olivera suggested her treatment was undeserved.

Good riddance.

I'll bet that pastor guzzles cum by the gallon behind the gas station at 3:00 a.m.

I hope she gets deported.

What is this “long history” you speak of? Point to it for me. Demonstrate you know what you’re talking about.

Believe me, I have no love of conservatives, but you still have to back up your points with facts.

It’s very easy to debunk Trump’s points with facts because he has none.

LOL, then your point is garbage.

I would recommend we stop using a term altogether and simply make our points. Words can always be deconstructed and redefined. The fact that we create and cling to them is our own fault. “Woke” was a term created by the Left and redefined by the Right. It’s very frustrating to me how we’ve totally cooperated with way the Right is redefining the term by responding to it as though they have a legit understanding of it. Which we have done simply by responding. So many of us are like “they don’t know what it means!” But they do. We defined it for them, and now we just don’t like that they’re using it to attack us. The definition of “woke” is “liberal bullshit.” And it has meaning to all conservatives; the fact that liberals think it’s meaningless doesn’t matter. We don’t even use the term anymore, because we’ve acquiesced to the conservative definition. That means they’ve won, with respect to that specific term. So, stop using it. Let them have it. Move on.
