    Has your belief in progress, sanity and/or your sense of humour been damaged by recent developments?

    By the US elections? Syria/IS stuff going on for what - 5 years now? Or anything else...

    Fake poll:

    A: Yes

    B: No

    C: Trump? Let the good times roll

    D: I won't be that bad

    E: It will be much worse

    F: Just getting old and whiny

    G: It's the same stuff as always really, leaders come and go and terrible stuff always happened to some degree...(*shrug* option)

    H: Other, explain

    America is going to hell, definitely. The Middle East has always been a mess.

        Nope, my belief in sanity never can be damaged, as I am a strict unbeliever with regards to the sanity of Homo sapiens sapiens

        So I guess it is either G or H

          Actually I am moar self-aware and mentally prepared than I evar have been in my life and only now can I look back and see how weak I actually was. Amazing that It coincided with these recent events and also equally amazing that God saw the strength in me even as I was cursing his name.

          So I guess D.

                      I feel like I should watch Idiocracy to see how this all pans out.

                        Do you have your flight to Canberra booked, to watch Parliament in session?

                          I went once back in 2003.

                          I've not been back to Australia since 2004.

                          Are these related facts?

                            All three, yes. I've never been patriotic and my crazy beliefs have never aligned very well with any United States politics, but I thought for a long time that the US was at least a safe and promising place to see some of what I want come to fruition. Doesn't seem that way now, and seems like there will be a lot of hard work in the future that I'd thought we as a species (or country) had already taken care of before we can get to what I consider the good stuff. Which is frustrating. And when frustrated, it's much harder to find humor in this ****ball of a planet.

                              I'm not sure BeBro can behave, so D probably wont happen.

                              Strange, I just felt a strange unearthy chill
                              With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.
