  • It is just so frustrating that people have been warning about exactly what is happening (not just with the DWP, mind), yet the general public just don’t want to hear it, the illusion of choice being so narrow makes life easy - you’re either team red or team blue (or maybe yellow or green if you’re feeling “rebellious”), and that’s all you need to know about the world (the result of being over worked, under paid, and propagandised since birth in to whatever benefits capitalism most, of course).

    Step outside that box, and they become so overwhelmed by (or completely shut down to) the endless possibilities, they just don’t know how to deal with it. It’s so fucked up how well the system works at preserving itself.

    Why my parents thought putting an extremely anxious child around such extremely anxious, large animals was a good idea is beyond me (I know horses help a lot of people, but I didn’t ask or want to be there and the horses clearly picked up on that and didn’t want me on or near them)

    I appreciate the pep talk! XD

    But I’m actually ok with feeling old, it’s more that I couldn’t believe I was the only person making the Priscilla connection, on 196 of all places, and I realised it’s probably now (very sadly!) outside of many internet-goers frame of reference lol
