Even on this gorgeous October day, there are, as always, many, many, people who need to be avoided because their brains are diseased and overflowing with toxic bullshit. It is distressing to engage most people in any but the most superficial and perfunctory conversations. As soon as you go beyond that, in so many cases, it's down the rabbit hole. And it makes me sad. Then it's necessary to turn off the nonsense, somehow disengage, end that conversation, and hope never to encounter that person again. In a town like Lubbock, in a state like Texas, rational and thoughtful people will have to be more than a little aloof. There are just too many crazies running around. Fortunately for me, I've never been a "people person". I feel rather sorry for "people who need people"-- I think their lives turn out to be more than a little complicated and screwed up.
Religious people can be some of the creepiest specimens out there.
