Say something nice about another ILXor

just saying, in 100 years, "someone shit at your table" is going to be on the level of "6 in one hand, half a dozen in another" in terms of ubiquity. and it's all because of old lunch

*hugs*

true on many levels

the table is the table, after all

hetfield is the table

best hetfield this debate for another time

Lol

Neanderthal is a righteous dude

aw thanks YMP ;). yr pretty dope yrself

he sure is!

Like both those dudes

It was a rough night with emotions running high but you folks have been a been a beacon of... relative sanity? Or, as much sanity as can be expected under the circumstances?

Not sure how to put it, but thanks.

Seconding this; I didn't post anything in the politics thread because I don't feel I know enough to weigh in, but I lurked on it all evening, and you all kept me somewhat sane and helped me make sense of the news as it was coming in. So thank you!

I want to commend harbl for being almost perpetually otm about political and ethical issues. I've definitely questioned my assumptions and kneejerk responses as a result.

lol. me? are you sure?

i rarely post more than one sentence, it's like i'm not even here

who's posting. i see text but

your sentences are v good

i agree. i mean, it was a sad thread to read and sometimes frustrating, but i don't know of any better place to be during such a stressful night.

also it would be great to have your thoughts there, even if you feel like you know enough. i never know what i'm talking about, so it's nice to have company :)

sorry, even if you feel like you ^don't^ know enough, i meant

people who think they "know enough" are always wrong imo

I'm glad my husband got me off the internet relatively early— we were drunk and high and made weird electronic music from like 8:30-11p, which was bedtime....and I skipped through the thread this morning because of a clusterfuck moment that I wasn't having...

that said, I really do appreciate many of you for keeping things updated and in perspective.

hard agree

i fell asleep to a four hour documentary about ‘80s horror last night and didn’t look at my phone once, but unfortunately i shot out of bed at 4:30 am and decided to look at good ol ilx

regardless it was still probably the least bad place on the internet to read about what was happening, i am v thankful for y’all today

Said it before, but I appreciate Neanderthal both because he talks a lot of sense, but also because I can really relate to his rare moments when the anxiety takes over.

I appreciate you too jon, and I feel like sometimes I start having a go at things in general, it might come across as me going at you but it never is - plus you have good taste in music ;).

I am very embarrassed about my outburst last night and that is unfortunately what my anxiety does to me. amazed i haven't been beat up more often.

jon is good people, Karl is good people, Brad is good people

we're all good people

none of us are good people

i've seen all good people

Man I think we are all forgiven our anxieties this week, it's all good. It's part of why I had to duck out of the politics thread earlier this week, it felt like a lot of people had (at that point, anyway) found their zen and were sniping a little at people who brought in this anxiety. Which I get, but I mean, it's helpful to express it too.

I love the lot of you.

with me if I start wigging out, it's usually because the thing someone is saying to me, rational or not, is sparking my own fear, and I am trying to quell that fear.

most of my eccentric posts are to convince myself as much as other people lol.

and you're alright too, hadrian

it's because it's a 'shortened' youtube URL - you have to convert it to the full URL

drives me nuts when I'm on mobile because mobile always shortens the URL and I have to go to the same website to figure out how to write the full URL

ok here goes for posterity (!)
