What is a mistake you have made or a lesson you had to learn, multiple times?

Prompt snagged from: TCMC

Relationship-wise, it’s Zaddy. That’s the mistake I keep making. The heart wants what it wants, even when R (for me) = 20%. What can I say? Sometimes, I’m stupid. I still have him blocked, and honestly? It’s because I don’t trust myself.

History-wise, all eyes are on the United States and it’s next move. At this point, I’m not sure if I want to cry or laugh at this global crisis and how unserious this generation is.

It feels like I’m watching history repeat itself in real-time, except this time there are memes and world leaders announcing military moves on X for likes and clout. Like WTF is even happening?

 Countries nearby Iran and Israel are literally offering rooftop views of the missile attacks.

Innocent people are dying. Again. As if we didn’t already go through this with the Gulf War. As if Afghanistan—the longest war in U.S. history didn’t mean a thing. This year, the U.S. launched Operation Rough Rider in Yemen. I wish I were joking, but no, that’s the real name. It’s like we’ve all got collective amnesia. And I get it, some people scroll past it because it’s too much. Too complicated. People have the perception that because the conflict is in another continent, that it’s not going to affect us here at the stateside. But they’re wrong.

I don’t support war. I believe in peace, love, unity, respect. I don’t want us involved in another conflict. But I also have close friends in the military. I may not support the politics, but I support them…

When will we ever learn?

    We need peace, not war. My heart goes out to the innocent lives being taken in this war. So sad.

      It really is

    I hope Trump decides not to bomb Iran because we will be caught up in a war with Iran. That won’t be good. I think he should let Israel and Iran bomb it out, hopefully.

      They made their bed, now they can lie in it.

    Yes definitely right on the button with this comment.

    Never. History is doomed to repeat itself. The power hungry taco is apparently pissing off both supporters and inside ass kissers in the GOP who thought he ran on making America first which didn’t include medling in foreign affairs. I tell ya with using our military to potentially murder protesters is leaving it quite wide open for another terroist attack or the biggest slap in the face a Russian invasion. The threat of Nuclear war from any country with the means is also looming. Its real fucking hard to care when there are so many shit outside factors. But, I just chug along. That news about ring side seats for war is quite disgusting.

      It’s sad to imagine how this is going to play out. This is a no win situation for Americans it feels like. Not with what’s his balls in office

    Must be horrible, just being an ordinary Iranian and living through this.

    War mongers will war monger, and the government makes money off of war.

      People dying is the cost of doing business

    I hope for peace, justice, and goodness to win. War is unnecessary, senseless violence

    1. justrojie Avatar

      It really is unnecessary. People are just struggling to live.

    That third meme is too true. Infact I was thinking, who is the media person that is gonna lead the Magas to the promise land of accepting they have been used? One of their previously beloved anchors is gonna turn and bring them all back to life I am thinking.

      It’s like maga is imploding. I’m sure there’s more to come

    I’m sorry I had to laugh at the neighboring cafe memes. Everything has become a joke. The other day I saw a nice meme on USA interfering with India-Pakistan politics, squeezing itself in the middle 🤣.

    The money is in the wars, what can we penniless common people do.

    1. justrojie Avatar

      People need to mind their own business sometimes 😆

      1. ibarynt Avatar

        Very true. Wherever US meddles, there’ll never be peace.

        1. justrojie Avatar

          They’re making a big mess 😩
