I really get this. I've actually said this before, obviously not word for word, but I have said this.
"Just because I don't care doesn't mean I can't be nice!" -Me
I don't have aspd (at least I've never been tested or been tested positive for it) but I really get this. I make good relationships and do good things not because I feel like it but because I know it's profitable for me in the future. I've been told that's a bad thing, but I do enjoy being around the people I've formed relationships with so I-don't-know-whatever.
I will never FEEL affective empathy.
I will never FEEL guilt or shame.
I will never FEEL compassion or sympathy.
Just like my mom, dad, mom's mom, aunts and uncles and cousins, and more.
So many in our family seem incapable, no matter how well raised.
Yet my ACTIONS are more GOOD then the average person that says they feel so much affective empathy, care, compassion, guilt
Think of it. People's guilt can trick them to thinking they are good just because they feel bad...even if they don't put in the effort to improve, keep doing the harm.
People's empathy can make them overwhelmed by suffering to the point they either do nothing or outright push for "quick fix" to stop seeing it, like removal of benches or spikes cause homeless.
People's compassion gives thoughts and prayers more so then helpful actions.
I on the other hand feel powerful helping someone when i knew without me likely no help or suffer worse (like by peoples bad advice)
I see the long term prisoners dilemma and know it's in my selfish hearted interest...to act helpfully, forgiving, but not a pushover. Transport, science, art, knowledge, stability, less death, garbage cleaning, economic stability. Long term for it all and how all connected means i ACT helpful and kind will always result in benefits i want. And I'm not slowed down by FEELING those things.
I may be the "psychopath" as I've been so called cause genetic aspd. But all that matters is ACTIONS.
Your EMOTIONS do not make you good or bad, they just are.
And appearing and viewed as good are much different then acting good acts.
I just find the sentence "a question of sufficient luigi" hilarious
This would not be cool yo
I'm not going to leave this unmentioned as the news isn't doing enough to warn people. The short of it is, the bill which disguises itself as a means to make the web safer was written by The Heritage Foundation to give the FTC full authority on what's deemed safe on the web. Under the new administration, it will be used to censor LGBT content. We know this was the point, as its proponents have shared this exact plan. It can still be beaten if called and emailed their senators, making it clear what harm the bill will do I'll link pages that can give you a line to your lawmakers, a way to write to them, and also a petition to sign.. The former only takes two minutes, and the latter has a pre-written script if you need it. This is more than important enough for your time. Even if you're in a red state, some conservatives oppose this bill beleive it will silence conservative voices too, so if you think that line of reasoning would work better on them, go for it!
You're such a creature...

Almost there, It's Out of Touch Thursday!!!!!
Love Chicago (the musical), we're playing it in my Concert Band right now, actually, and our theatre program is doing it as well.

Mmmmm
Hii people!! Uhh a friend of mine said I should use tumblr so I made an account for my art and edits 😋 here’s a cool animation I did a while back 🙃
Eueyehehhehehehe
let's recap what we've learned about the United States in the last few days.
things that are terrorism:
allegedly shooting a healthcare CEO whose company generated more pure profit (not revenue, profit) in a year than the GDP of 94 countries, exclusively by denying coverage to people who pay for it
a 42-year-old mother of 2 using the wrong combination of 7 words during a heated conversation with a call center employee at a health insurance company who was in the process of denying her health coverage.
things that are not terrorism:
mass shooting in a Black church to incite a race war
going to a BLM protest specifically to kill protestors
a neo-nazi running over a crowd of people, killing a woman
targeting and killing 23 latinos in an el paso, texas walmart
killing 12 people in a theatre, shooting 58 others, rigging your apartment with explosives
a QAnon groyper killing 7 and shooting ~50 at a 4th of July parade
killing 3 people and shooting several others at a Planned Parenthood in defense of the unborn
stalking someone relentlessly and then killing them and their child despite months of the victim making police reports
any one of the 1,200 murders committed by US police yearly, the vast majority being minorities
tightening your border while ~100 immigrants (including children) drown every year in the Rio Grande
United Healthcare killing an unnknowable number of elderly people by using faulty AI to deny medically necessary coverage
Aetna killing a woman by refusing to cover her cancer care
Blue Cross killing a 6-year-old by denying her appendicitis surgery
Cigna killing a 17-year-old child by denying her liver transplant
the pharmaceutical industry killing half a million people with opioids in the name of producing revenues in 2023 that rivaled the GDPs of countries like Spain, Mexico, and Australia.
the United States killing 45,000 people a year because they can't access health coverage
make sure you keep this guide handy the next time you find yourself interacting with your insurance company or any other millionaire, billionaire, or an individual who is part of a protected class such as a CEO or president of a corporation.
@jays-endless-yapping dude idk if this'll affect either of us but I think you'd care. Personally not gonna do anything about it tho.
Hello dear!
Sorry for bothering you, but it's important to remind you to turn off your asks for a few days! Bad things are going to happen on Tumblr soon...
Don t know anything about this but BETTER BE SAFE EVERYBODY!!!!!!
This is very interesting.
y'all HAVE to watch this...interview??? with the inmates of the prison where luigi mangione is being held.
the reporter is standing outside the prison walls, while the inmates are inside watching newsmax, and collectively screaming out one-word answers to questions loud enough to be heard by the reporter.
I've never seen anything like it
As an American citizen I find this whole healthcare assassination very interesting.
Of course, what I'm mostly interested in is the social impact. Tons of people, from all backgrounds, ideologies and whatever else make people different, are agreeing that assassinating that dude was a good idea.
I agree, of course. Getting rid of people that disagree with you with violence is the American way. And is illegally killing one person so much worse than legally killing hundreds of thousands?
I sure wonder if Viva La revolución.
I read the final TF2 comic. It was a transcendent experience. So amazing. I'll probably make some posts about all the amazing details.
