No, I know that
and I think laissez-faire is a pretty workable way of doing things.

But there again, I have absolute faith in the general goodness of human nature, but I find cruelty equally abhorrent.

Do you?
Have you been observing human nature? I've not noticed it being essentially good.

Stay, with your lovely soul.
I'm picturing you with plaits now.

my lovely soul is quite tearful by now
and it occurs to me that my lovely soul hasn't had any happy pills for over a week. This is not good. I must go to Boots later and see if I can find some.

you've just reminded me to take my anti-child medicines
I had to get some 'tesco value' ones because the local pharmacies have none of the branded stuff.
This is fine, but then my doctors kept forgetting to call back authorising the pharmacist to issue me with the identically-made Smart Price one. This morning, the pharmacist gave me some anyway because I need to take it TODAY and she said she'll face the consequences and get me some more later. WTF? Pill shortages now??

A human being's default setting is a vicious, selfish, small-minded bigot.
They have to be trained out of it, not into it. Look at any child for proof. Social conditioning is all that seperates us from animals.

which is why I don't feel too bad about mainly looking out for myself and those I care about

People have to prove to me that they're not a cunt before I'll give them a second thought.
Which is a pretty fucking sad state of affairs.

I know a lot of great people at least, and the majority on here restore my faith a little bit.
