I'd say emotional intelligence is understanding why you feel a certain way and not allowing the automatic reaction to those feelings to be the default reaction.

Like if something makes you angry, instead of going crazy, you take a deep breath and address it calmly. It's primarily emotional regulation.

It's like that retort when people ask why being a slut is viewed negatively while being a stud isn't, it's easy to be a slut, it's not easy to be a stud.

He wants them all to look like strong little boys so he can feel like Epstein. Surrounded by kids who have no choice but to do what he says

Lucky you. My city, Edinburgh has one of the highest rated public transport systems. The buses and trams are always full. I use them often but I hate every second of it, it's a horrible experience, card machines that randomly refuse random cards while accepting others, anti social behaviour, litter strewn about the bus by the recent passengers, windows being opened when it's cold and closed when it's sweltering, buses showing up at random times, rude drivers, ridiculous charges for jumping on the tram without a ticket because the ticket machines weren't working, cancellations and route diversions that aren't properly sign posted leaving you standing for half an hour with a ticket you can't refund before some kind soul happens to walk past and give the news that the route stopped 3 stops back, a 45 minute journey becomes 2 hours. I could go on and on, public transport is necessary but under capitalism it's shit. I'll stick to driving when I don't have time for deviations.

You'd really subject someone to having to draw Trump's pussy-necked face by hand?

No conservatives believe anything. They say and do whatever helps them in that moment and in the next moment they'll say and do the opposite as long as it helps them. They're animalistic, idiots who only react to things. There's no long term thinking, there's no layered thinking it's just "you think this is bad, so I'm going to say it's good"

I don't even think we are suffering more. Like my fuel prices have gone up by 10p/litre. I'm seeing Americans pay over $100 to fill their tanks, I paid £60 today, our national debt isn't sitting at 20 odd Trillion and our stock market didn't just lose over $1T. Like everything else with these clowns, the truth is the opposite of what they say it is.

Strongest navy in the world ladies and gentlemen

Unfortunately there are signals that allies are starting to acquiesce. Keir Starmer is sending the Navy to help ships navigate the strait, while Iran is bombing our bases so it's a guarantee that our ships will be attacked, drawing us into another forever war for the United Pedos of America. The rest of the government are telling him it's going to bankrupt us, but he's too fucking stupid to see that, that's the whole point of this war. To pull in NATO to put pressure on their economies, leading to a reduction of support for Ukraine. All because America elected a black man a decade ago.
