She was the little girl in [insert early 2000s movie] too.

No way, dude. I saw music fans take to the streets. There was a ticker tape parade, fireworks, and the mayor gave away the key to the city to…JOHN MAYER!

The reanimated cadaver of Prince was shredding licks on the shores of the crisp yet purifying Lake Minnetonka.

John Lennon descended from the heavens and broke up with Yoko Ono which reunited the Beatles, including Pete Best who was brought on in good spirits.

Rick Ashley recorded another chart topping single.

Mariah Carey recorded a different Christmas song.

Dolly Parton retired.

Carly Simon revealed who You’re So Vain is about.

Willie Nelson stopped smoking pot.

Snoop Dogg stopped hitting women and then started again.

Taylor Swift flew first class to a yoga class instead of in a private jet.

John Denver took a train.

Eminem made up with Kim.

Music fan here. I’m still putting pieces of myself back together.

Sorry I had a fight in the middle of your Black Panther party.

The gerbil needed hobbies, obviously.

Soliciting prostitution is a serious crime. Unlike raping kids. That gets you places.

Did they ever get the gerbil out of your ass?

I’m sorry, I meant no ill will. I just saw the joke and took action.

Oh, look at the Corporate Fatcat over here with health insurance. Well, la-dee-dah, Mr. Carnegie.

Oh, yeah? Well, I’m going to pirate them. We will see if they ever financially recover from my damages.

Same thing that happened when Microsoft bought it. MONETIZATION.

It’s pronounced “wind”. Duh.

I wish we could keep Trump out of every single community.

The reason he won at all is because he is the champion of the dumb. They see themselves in him.

Yeah, he said that and all, but Obama wore a tan suit and THAT’S unforgivable.

But the headline creates clicks and engagement and that’s what matters most.

Only the followers believe the propaganda. The leaders don’t actually believe it, they use it to control their flock of stupids. And they only listen to their leaders.

I agree with everything you said.

I don’t think it’s too much for this community. I think you are being too hard on yourself. You do something until you are bored with it and you consider that a character flaw? Brother, that’s just life. You may not be the best at something, but if you enjoy doing it, then who cares? I make music, and it’s not topping the charts. However, I do it because my inspiration wasn’t to make music for everyone, it was to make it for someone.

Number 3 is called a feedback loop. It’s like drinking. It’s the solution to the problem, but it causes the problem. Forgive yourself and move forward. Change is a direction, not a destination. Perfect is the enemy of good, and maybe good enough is going for a walk before watching something. Small steps. Breath.

You are no different than the happy people you see. You’ll find what works. Everything, even the ground you stand on, is temporary.

I’m not saying the US should or would invade Canada, but your comparison to a conflict in the middle east versus an invasion of Canada are incomparable. They are objectively different. Canada borders the US and relies heavily on them heavily for a lot of their economy, trade, and protection. 90% of Canada’s population is within 50 miles of the US border. You said there would be multiple countries and stronger militaries, but I don’t think so. I see what’s happening in Ukraine, where Russia is doing the exact same thing and no one is stepping in to help Ukraine actively fight them. NATO doesn’t seem to be doing more than finger wagging at Trump at this point.

Would there be resistance from the population? Absolutely, but the Canadian government would be taken over quickly.

If the US truly wanted to, they could take Canada by force rather quickly. The repercussions globally would be damaging for the foreseeable future. I know that this is a scary thought, but it’s more realistic than the US having a Vietnam with a country next to them.
