Every moment of a life is a horrible tragedy, a slapstick comedy, dark nihilism, golden illumination, or nothing at all; depending on how we write the story we tell ourselves.

Re: What Are You Thinking About?
I'm thinking that the mindset justifying the stomping-out of unpopular groups is a thing we need to grow beyond. Meaningful compromise is so much better.Every moment of a life is a horrible tragedy, a slapstick comedy, dark nihilism, golden illumination, or nothing at all; depending on how we write the story we tell ourselves.

Re: What Are You Thinking About?
I'm unpopular because I have breathing issues and very reactive eyes and can't be around smoke, be it incense, tobacco, whatever. I don't care if people want to do that stuff, just let me know and I'll stay out of the place. And keep it off MY property!sigpic

And your property is your property, and you should make the rules. But if someone were to tell me I can't smoke on my property, that is bad. It violates a basic principle of mutual respect. I'm 100% with you there.Every moment of a life is a horrible tragedy, a slapstick comedy, dark nihilism, golden illumination, or nothing at all; depending on how we write the story we tell ourselves.

It's like having a peeing section in a swimming pool, kind of. You can stay at the other end, any get less of it, but never none. I'll just stay out of the water! LOLsigpic

Re: What Are You Thinking About?
By "curb," I actually meant "not do, control the desire to."
For example, if I were at your house, I'd not smoke at all. Your rules trump my urges. Nor would I expect you to change those rules in order to be nice to me. After all, the smell does linger.
If you were a guest at my house, knowing you have a sensitivity to smoke, I'd excuse myself for five minutes and go far enough away (down wind ) that I would not disturb you (if you were there for several hours), or not smoke at all (if I could hold off for the duration of your visit). That is my idea of good manners.Every moment of a life is a horrible tragedy, a slapstick comedy, dark nihilism, golden illumination, or nothing at all; depending on how we write the story we tell ourselves.

Re: What Are You Thinking About?
It is hard for non smokers(I am now a non smoker because I did the electronic ones for a bit) to understand how the withdrawal can feel,it is REALLY nasty and to be true most of us who started smoking back in the very early 60's found the practice very pervasive and pushed by the media a LOT. These days when it is frowned upon quite a lot,we have tried to be polite in our habit. I wonder if in some future place this will become a thing about coffee consumption...times change and social moors also change.
There is a kind of backlash with food now too,get the bad stuff out,even if it means no flavor period...oh well,I will be dead and gone before that most likely.MAGIC is MAGIC,black OR white or even blood RED
all i ever wanted was a normal life and love.
NO TERF EVER WE belong Too.
don't stop the tears.let them flood your soul.
