Tess Aristocrat: there are the doers
Tess Aristocrat: the complainers
Tess Aristocrat: the idea people..
Sluggy Easterwood: yes
Tess Aristocrat: and people that feel as if they are not really heard? or not a part of things?
Sluggy Easterwood: true
Tess Aristocrat: even though it is all the same committee

--BELL--

Tess Aristocrat: and the complainers keep complaining :P
Sluggy Easterwood: yes

Sluggy Easterwood: Birric says he supports the 1pc
Sluggy Easterwood: yes
Sluggy Easterwood: does talking about the self help?

Sluggy Easterwood: yes
Tess Aristocrat: there is always something new to learn
Sluggy Easterwood: it does for me anyway.
Tess Aristocrat: nods
Sluggy Easterwood: maybe people focus on things like politics to avoid looking into themselves
Tess Aristocrat: or for money/power?
Sluggy Easterwood: yes lol
Tess Aristocrat: ㋡
Sluggy Easterwood: i mean people who talk alot about politics
Sluggy Easterwood: lol although i enjoy talking about polticis, it kind of feels like gossip

Sluggy Easterwood: maybe im just insenistive
Tess Aristocrat: It did not give me a good feeling to watch that footage on tv..
Sluggy Easterwood: me either
Tess Aristocrat: I just turned away..
Tess Aristocrat: it felt wrong to watch that..
Sluggy Easterwood: but watching it makes no difference to the outcome
Tess Aristocrat: even though, he may have done bad things, or was this or that.., etc.. you know?
Sluggy Easterwood: yes
Sluggy Easterwood: if you were libyan you may be celebrating
Sluggy Easterwood: as they seem to be
Tess Aristocrat: perhaps, and I am sure they are
Tess Aristocrat: yes
Tess Aristocrat: but I would still not want to see that.
Sluggy Easterwood: its easy for us to say its wrong when we live in a comfortable state
Tess Aristocrat: It just goes against our grain naturally to see harm.

--BELL--

Sluggy Easterwood: i seee
Sluggy Easterwood: we see harm all the time, its just on a spectrum
