which their church wouldn’t approve of either.


ironically, simultaneously telling them to pull themselves up by the bootstraps. further normalising their cognitive dissonance.

even though I some days think we should put down children that can’t get a high enough score on an intelligence / emotional quotient test.


holy shit! to even ever...

on the one hand, there are ways to mend and mitigate this,

on the other hand, there are so many other aptitudes to find worthiness in people ( see my little story about aptitude tests https://f.kawa-kun.com/display/e2bc06a08de9013747360218b72fdf43 ), and even then, eugenics based murder's hardly taking the high ground, oposaming to become them.

i advocate aptitude testing as a way to help us each know our strengths and weaknesses, beyond the foolish singular pecking order and dunny-krugilous misassessments, and to help us better estimate who's best for doing what... not as an excuse to cull undesirables.

i wonder how many geniuses of other aptitudes not measured you'd obliviously kill, looking only at inteligence and wisdom quotients.

and even if they're not genius in any regard... still seems a better world to merely mitigate against their ineptitudes, than to murder them.

Don’t worry, I’d never do that. Only seems like good idea when someone cuts me off in traffic or other perceptional slight. It’s my method of cussing at them


So if you had a button to press that would cause it, in a moment of anger, you'd press it?

Seems a good idea to get these aptitude tests, so we can know where those kinds of moral, emotional, philosophical, ethical, societal, civid, wisdom ineptitudes are, and keep those buttons away from those with unhealthy avenues of destructive catharsis they use to process their emotions.

maybe try some HIT & calming sound therapy. maybe get some calming aromatherapy in your car.

lol @Digit -- I don't drive anymore. I used to get everything from speeding tickets to DWI (surprisingly enough, no DUIs) -- my friends that remember me driving in the late 1990s are good at warning new friends I pick up to "never let this man drive!"

I'm okay with that. I was a hazard with wheels. I don't drink much anymore, but still haven't renewed my license and just go with a basic state id now. I'm officially mentally ill now and I just roll with it. I dislike responsibility, and am pretty good at not presenting it
