Questions

"While the right tells us the answer is for the left to “tone down the rhetoric”—meaning, stop criticizing them and labeling them as the fascists they are—there is perhaps another, more direct solution: GOP political leaders, officials and the goons on the right who serve them could stop waging war, murdering citizens, raping women, molesting children, denying life-saving health care, disappearing immigrants and demonizing and scapegoating whole communities.

That, I’d imagine, would “turn down the heat” considerably."

Without it messing with other thoughts and memories. I'm aware the brain will give me random intrusive thoughts and bring back memories I don't wanna remember due to stress, boredom, anxiety, etc. I also know that I probably can't have them permanently deleted the way you can erase files off a computer. Basic tactics like trying to disassociate emotions to it or deliberately exposing myself to them to make it go away has failed. I guess my only options now are either hypnosis, cognitive brain therapy, drugs (probably won't use them), and occultist rituals (don't believe in this).

When you're feeling down, stressed, or just had a rough day, what’s your favorite comfort food that instantly makes you feel better? Do you go for something sweet like ice cream or chocolate, savory like pizza/pasta, warm like soup or ramen, or something else totally random? Bonus: Tell me in the comments why it’s your comfort food and any funny memories attached to it!
