    hey don’t start pushing me back to hating everyone….
    damn it i’m misanthropic again….
    everything cool gets taken over by people just along for the ride
    at least there’s still Stoic philosophy keeping it real….

      Stoicism should not be a shield to guard you from reality. Acknowledge those things that you cannot control, that many people do in fact suck, and focus on the choices you can make. We know people suck, and that history tells us they can suck a whole lot harder. You can accept defeat, tell yourself nothing can be done and resign yourself to whatever consequences may come from that, or?
