  • As he said, Empathy requires, well…Empathy. the ability to recognize what a person MIGHT be feeling. It’s reading someone, and trying to relate. It doesn’t mean literally reading their mind, and channeling their emotions like a Vulcan Mind Meld.

    On the other hand, Sympathy can simply mean pity, especially to someone like him. He can’t recognize your pain, all he can do is feel superior that he’s not in pain.

    It’s the basic definition of Liberal vs Republican. Liberals (general term, not Neo Liberals) are concerned with society, Republicans are concerned with themselves.















  • I have lived in Tucson, Arizona for about 5 years. I still get excited about all the little lizards and birds. And Coyotes, and bobcats. Last night I saw a toad for the first time. There is a TON of wildlife here, kind of like you hear about Australia, and it’s pretty amazing. I’m sure it’s all pretty old hat to a lot of people. I also see gorgeous mountain ranges every day, which is not something I grew up with in New York.

    Oh, and there is legal weed (marijuana) every damn where. It’s fucking. Awesome. We…did not have this in NY growing up.
