Headlines

I don't always know where my Super Negativity (SN) comes from. 

Well, okay, I DO know. My ever-present super negative Mom and super negative Dad installed all my super negative buttons early on ---and pressed all of them too!

So when I see a headline in my news feed like this:

"Florida woman attacked by bear while walking dog says she's 'lucky to be alive'"

My first thought there was... lucky to be alive, huh? 

...well?

...maybe not. 

How do we know that is the case?

It could be that we are all very unlucky that it didn't kill her. Maybe she's a puppy-killing, bible-thumping mask-protesting, anti-vaxxer who needs to go and the entire world would be so much better without her.

Of course I don't know her, maybe she's a sunshine blaring, birds singing, hero of humanity and her death would have been a serious, marvel movie, time-line altering, tragedy for the universe.

Makes you think, tho. Exactly how important is any one person? No one can ever really know.

I think if what she said was, I am "happy" to be alive, not "lucky", it would not have triggered my SN buttons.

"How the global chip shortage is boosting US manufacturing"

Wait. You mean the country that doesn't make anything, started making something and that was... good? No!? Say it isn't so!

"Amazon is betting you're tired of buying clothes on Amazon."

I have never (and will never) buy clothes on Amazon.

Amazon is Evil. Google is wicked Evil. Walmart... pure Evil.

All massive corporations are Evil.

Unchecked Capitalism leads to casually dismissed, human and animal tragedies every single day.

"5G vs. airline safety: This is why we have a government"

Why we have governments is to help people.  In reality, however, governments don't help anyone.

They gladly depopulate any area to further the twisted logic of whomever is in power.

Always remember that democracy is four wolves and one sheep deciding what's for dinner.

Last one...

"5 ways to save 10 percent on your home energy bills."

Easy. Use ten percent less energy. Buy candles, ditch your time-soul-power sucking mobile phone, your game console, your big screen tv and super deep Fridge.

You'll probably live a longer and happier life without those things, too.
