re: Anybody else still shook?

Stepping aside from all the TD and social media nonsense, I’m still trying to digest this shite


For my whole adult life, I never really cared when celebrities passed away. I’m not saying it made me happy or that I celebrated anything like that, but it just never bothered me because I didn’t know them personally. Even if it was someone popular that I liked. In fact, I always had a sort of internal disdain for people who would take other peoples’ death and try to make it about themselves and how sad they are over it… you know, the whole ‘thoughts and prayers’ thing felt kinda self-serving to me…

But yesterday honestly affected me in a way I never thought it would. I grew up in the rotten dot com era, we’ve all seen some morbid shite on the internet and some of us, in real life unfortunately… but when I saw Charlie get shot it genuinely hit me like I never thought possible. Immediately become sad followed by pure anger for anyone on that side of the aisle.. tried explaining how I felt to my wife yesterday afternoon and she was shocked at my reaction as well



I can’t quite put into words how I feel… I’ve tried but I’ve come up short. What I say and what I type does it no justice. This stings. Bad





** sorry for dumping all that here. I’m not trying to make this about myself or my feelings, I’m just trying to grasp why I feel the way I do right now, like a lot of yall

No apology needed. You are not alone. Many share those exact feelings.


They want us dead. Coming to that realization is difficult.

It’s good vs evil.

Carmen Jaycee was shook in her latest video. She's my favorite black female youtuber and is normally extremely calm. She lost it.

Call me a sissy old boomer if you want to! But I called in sick today cause I didn’t want to be around people!

You're not a sissy old boomer. You're a good person... And I almost did the same thing and stayed home today. I'm really upset by this... It's just been a constant roller coaster of anger and sadness since yesterday. I barely slept last night. I'm so on edge and angry, ready to snap on the first person that talks hateful leftist crap about within earshot of me.

To me, yesterday was a declaration of war. And if that vile leftist scum assassin's act wasn't their declaration, it was enough for me to declare war on them... However that war manifests itself, be it words, doxxing, canceling, voting, or physically taking it to the streets and having it out... I'm ready anytime they are. We can't let these worthless, hateful, violent scumbags behavior slide anymore.

Yes. I am.

I'm coping by considering us to be at war and that we've suffered a casualty in our unit - we've got to keep going no matter how sad or angry we feel. We've got to compartmentalize and keep going.
