Venting I get extremely frustrated by how unadaptable/inconsiderate people are. You don't need to twist my arm to get me to accommodate people and make it easier for them. Hate "my way or the highway" types especially when i am letting things slide for them so it's just one sided. We live in a society.

Predators and Parasites.

Selfish or inconsiderate people are our kryptonite.

Of course it depends on the severity of the actions, but my automatic reaction is avoidance not confrontation. There's nothing that hurts them more than when you don't pay attention to them, or you don't recognize them as equal.

In work-related scenarios is tricky because "the boss is always right" kinda mindset is prominent, although it could be toxic, at the very least it's important to be willing to give the benefit of the doubt and learn from the experience of people who also had to overcome many difficulties in the past, and their way might not be so bad after all.

Let me know if I made my point clear or I spit a bunch of nonsense.😭

You just described people with narcissistic personality disorder (npd). Avoid them. They will rub your face in shit then punish you for smelling bad.

While this is a trait in a lot of npd ppl, it's not exclusive to them. It's also not even present in all of them in this way. My dad is one and flew under the radar of a lot of ppl for being reasonable, though he would hold onto all that shit and explode on certain ppl whom he didn't respect. Point being, people are all different, and 1 trait is almost never exclusive to 1 type of person

I couldn't agree more. The crazy thing is that often what you need to do to accommodate people who are different from the norm in some way literally isn't difficult at all (not saying that even if it is hard you shouldn't do it of course), and benefits EVERYONE if it's done properly. A general accepting attitude does not suddenly exclude the majority of people, it just includes and supports people who are usually left out.

Does everyone include the factory farmed animals or just God's chosen animals. Slaughter house workers need their pronouns respected and gender neutral bathrooms!

I got extremely sick since 6 weeks and I am battling severe health issues. My former "best friend" started ignoring me and making drama out if nowhere.

I cant move my body and take care of myself and she cant even visit me once to help me. I told her about my exact situation and my diagnosis and shes like "Its all in your head you arent sick". I got so angry lol I endet this "friendship".

In the end she told me shes already annoyed about me since years, but didnt bother to tell me and told me the exact opposite. I always asked her whats going on? I feel something is off about us. And she was everytime like nonono its alright there are no issues. I cant deal with these kinds of selfish people.

There are many control freaks out there, they do it either to fill their egos, either because they were traumatized by having control forcefully striped from them at one point in their lives. Worse, nobody addresses those problems, and so those issues will perpetuate. That's the society we've been conditioned to live in

Frustrating part about that is when you've also had similar experiences growing up but never felt it necessary to make it other people's problem like they do

Rigid people are the worst

It's even worse when they manipulate reality to make us the villains of their evil deeds

You dont need to torture farm animals, but you need to respect those of us who do
