They are doing what most of us do as part of a larger Grander pattern of behaviors is called “survival mechanisms” i’m not letting him off the hook it was rude and inconsiderate and despite the fact they had no context to know what hurt their tone deaf statements would create... well it was a Dick move. For those you haven’t caught it a woman being treated for cancer went through a fast food drive-through to catch a coffee what she got was made fun of. Unaware that she was able to hear them in the drive-through employees paraded her address which was given to her by a woman at the location she was receiving her radiation.

I don’t think  what I do is important. At least in The Sense I Don’t think it moves the Dial much, or at all.  If I’m being honest I do it a little bit for selfish reasons because I just can’t handle reading any more stories like this.
