You can use many medications as directed and die. Doctors have been complaining about Tylonol usage being a leading cause of liver failure for years now. People die during routine dental operations. There is risk all around you. You can walk outside and get hit by a bus. A bus driver can fall asleep at the wheel and drive his bus into your living room. Right now. Life kills.
Some mistakes you don't get to make. Mistakes have consequences. To real people. We can't just ignore them and pretend it didn't happen.
The other day one kid hit their sibling on the head with a toy truck. The hitter was yelling "Sorry!" at their crying sibling who yelled back "Sorry doesn't help!" You can be sorry. But "sorry" doesn't magically make it better. It doesn't roll back time.
Mistakes can cost you your job, your family, your reputation, and your freedom. That is why you have to think before you act.
But at no point does anyone renounce the content of the emails...
Everyone seems to want to blame the people that leaked the emails, not the people that wrote them.
If you are afraid of what the president might do, then he has too much power.
We have spent the past couple decades consolidating power up to the federal level and the presidency. It's time to give it back to the states and congress.
People actually pay people to fold laundry for them. Perhaps you should get out of your bubble. They also pay people to mow their lawn. Yes, I can paint my bedroom myself. But I would rather spend that time playing with my kids instead of yelling at them to not dump the paint on their heads. So I pay someone who has the ability to focus on the task at hand.
Carpenter, electrician, plumber... All these things need done. When my sink starts dumping water into my basement, I *could* fix it myself. Or I can call my handyman and he'll fix it. Just because *you* have never looked for one, doesn't mean they aren't around or that other people don't value them. My office mate is so happy I gave her my guy's name because now shit around her house is getting fixed.
We just paid a guy to bring lunch to the office. Because while we could go out ourselves, we didn't want to.
Stop being so demeaning to the people that make life easy. They do important work.
Administration: An ingenious abstraction in politics, designed to receive the kicks and cuffs due to the premier or president. -- Ambrose Bierce
