When you're an artist, aren't you supposed to suffer?

We all suffer from different things. For some it's lack of reading comprehension. For others it's lack of empathy. The list goes on ...

I really don’t have anything very helpful to add to the conversation right at this moment, but when I saw the name you are using, it made me smile, and I wish I had thought of it. Bravo!

I don't suffer from anything really, maybe a bit of joint pain at 77 but boy-oh-boy, it's difficult having empathy for narcissists.

You are old, ok, but don't be so grumpy

When a comment is pre-faced with out-of-context mention of physical pain, you can be sure it will be followed by a plea for empathy combined with an accusatory projection of narcissism. A truly classic combo!

I don't see either myself or my daughter as narcissistic ... but then I probably wouldn't if I was one. It's a conundrum for sure! Personally I'd rather the government didn't decide which media platforms I can see. But that could just be the narcissism speaking. Or my determination to living like the free human being I was intended to be. Always hard to know.

I'm a Kiwi. Our govt is great. Most Yanks think a Trump government is great too. It's a bugger this democracy thing, isn't it.

I well understand that which is why I don't want government deciding which platforms I'm allowed to see

Take care not to eat too much while you're down this rabbit hole. You may not be able to squeeze out.
