It takes YEARS to get to know people and even then you never can really entirely know anyone. Snapshot assessments. Snapshot "conclusions. Why do people think they KNOW so much more than they possibly can KNOW about others? They can guess but all guesses are filtered through the lens of self-preservation. Whatever makes them look good and feel good about themselves is what they think about others. SIGH. As time goes by it seems people become more sure of themselves, more full of themselves, more CERTAIN about others. WHY? less

Soon the "bully" is powerless and a laughingstock and everyone tunes him out. How does an out-of-work bully support himself and his family? Is there a market for impotent bullies? Is the pay good?
For example a mother who is not emotionally available... doesn't have to be a mother, could be partner, father, brother or friend... how might such a person behave?
Apparently Trump has a button in his desk and every time he presses it a butler brings him a coke. I bet it costs tax payers $500 a week for that. Cheers and happy weekend!

Is not knowing as valuable as knowing? How and Why?

WASHINGTON (AP) — Senate Democrats late Thursday blocked a quick vote on a short-term spending bill to keep the government open, roiling Washington with brinkmanship less than 30 hours before a midnight Friday deadline for a shutdown and President Donald Trump's 100th day in office.
Majority Leader Mitch McConnell pressed for an agreement on the short-term legislation that will carry through next week, giving lawmakers more time to complete negotiations on a $1 trillion government-wide spending bill for the remainder of the 2017 budget year.
Democratic leader Chuck Schumer insisted that any vote only occur when Republicans abandon efforts to add provisions on abortion, financial regulations and the environment to the legislation.
"Our position has been clear and it's nothing news. No poison-pill riders," Schumer said.
The House is scheduled to vote on the one-week extension on Friday morning and the Senate c... less
