Monday

I think it's coming so fast on the heels of the Bondi Beach shootings. It's too damn easy for extreme assholes and losers to end the lives of anyone except the person they probably should (themselves).

I'm not advocating for suicide. I'm just saying that if you're in that level of unbearable pain at the meaninglessness of your life, it's a better step than killing other people who don't deserve it.
