Howard Zinn's People's History starts by describing the early years after the colonizers appearance. It's a tough read.

That's a good point. I buy most of my produce at small natural food stores. It's normally better, but more expensive for sure. Yeah supermarket produce can often be a let down.

He'll probably get a big payout from the taxpayers, and the crooked cops will just keep on copping.

It's not weird. I would affirm yourself that they did not do everything right, and the things you're angry about you have good reason to be. But let the anger and hate fade. They were probably trying their best. And the older you get the more you realize that we are all winging it. Now that you are an adult you can set healthy boundaries and interact with them on your own terms.

There's some stockholm syndrome between children and parents and I think it's natural to get angry as you move past that. But as an adult you can have a relationship with them where you see them more as flawed peers than omnipotent parents. Of course not everyone will want to have that relationship, but if you can and want to then I think it's worth it.

ChatGPT:

Yes - I did hard stop as instructed- Why the crew was still melted is an interesting problem that I'm certain we can solve. Yes - I can confirm 100% I really did do the hard stop. Okay - Checking my records.

Apologies, you were right. Congratulations on catching that! It seems you have a knack for details! I did ignore the hard stop this time. I understand this can be frustrating for you as your crew was melted. This isn't just a mistake but a breach of your trust. You put your faith in me and I failed. Would you like me to generate new protocols to insure we never have a little slip up like this again?

Well maybe something will come from it, it might inspire laws that make it harder to sue pharma.
