The one that is only partly the Banks fault? The one that had causation in the banks being forced by the democrats to take on bad loans because MUH RACISM?

MUH RAYSIST ACTUARY TABLE

nah i just mean like usury in general. how can any country pay back 1% of money if we only have the money we were given. inflation?

wat?

but isnt that just hot air

Who exactly are you accusing of usury?

anyone who practices it. predatory loans are abundant no?

Like what?

I mean, some loans are really shitty, but at some point it becomes the borrower's fault.

If they tell you repeatedly what it costs, then you'd better be ready to pay it.

but we know this is a bad practice so why let anyone charge anyone more interest than what exists...

@xorgy ello sexually abused brotha
i like meming about my abuse, maybe it isn't right and shows some knots are still untied but its like weeeee
that said in both cases i blocked it out of memory (2 dif people 2+ different times), is till hugely blocked out so its easier to joke about, but all the same i still feel like better off doing that even if i dwell on it. what you make of this?

i know, but most people don't

@Ottobon we're fucked for life, that's what I think.

wa

@Ottobon I have no idea what my childhood consisted of.

no you aint... y'all stronger now

I have like... five memories.

eh, if people don't joke about their trauma, I tend not to think it was that traumatic to them

^

Yeah, the jokes are healthy.

Well, sorta.

It's complicated.

i dont feel fucked, it was a bad experience i wouldn't wish on anybody but it gave perspective on a lot of shit...that said i've become way less depressed in recent years due to better socializing, and at the time i was depressed completely blocked out the fact it happened even though it was like 6 incidents

we're all to blame, bear your cross, lift yourself, and help others if possible.

Yeah, I mean, I have overcome the depression, but I fear that the broken bits in me may some day be a liability.

*some* jokes are healthy

and then some are painful but then so long as you don't get stuck in a pit of dispair, eventually are healthy

Maybe the next Democratic president (if there ever is one again) will make it illegal for me to have a gun if I've told anyone about it.

yo, you are cut from the cloth of apex predators who literally fought their way out of the food chain... take your sadness and spin it... life is balance, for all unbearable things that have occurred to you create goodness for others so they don't have to suffer your pain too.

That is certainly my attitude.

good one to have

But you know, I remain concerned. I don't really know for certain what is inside me.

It is hard to examine, even with professional help.

Hard to tell if I'm just being hypnotized into some cult of self pity, or working things out.

noone does. where do you begin and i end? same for anyone

My biggest issue with metoo: it's asking people to hold onto trauma in the most self-destructive way, hurting their ability to heal

No kidding.

@Nine thats a really good point
