"But he just went on and on about himself. And he didn’t interact. He just spoke about himself, coming up for breath occasionally to listen to the other."
Comedian Louis Black calls this "Ear Rape." I have NO tolerance for it anymore. NONE.
A favorite quote: "To do all of the talking and none of the listening -- is a form of greed."
My economics college "professors" professed that inflation was an increase in the cost of a 'basket of goods', when in reality, inflation is the decrease in the value of the money in circulation (M3 - no longer reported), dut to the introduction (printing/borrowing) of more, endlessly.
I am not a taxpayer and I didn't receive any convid money either. I didn't want any and wouldn't have taken it anyway. Just like unemployment, I would never resign myself to that. I work for my money.
Sounds like New England driving etiquette. If you don't know what that is, try driving in New Jersey, California, or Wisconsin.
You're absolutely right. We can feed off each other, so to speak, when having positive interaction. We don't have to be energy vampires or dominate the timespace!
They certainly seem like another species, this is true. But they are not so alien because look at the USA, and any country, how easily war is resorted to. Most of the time the ones who fight in the war, the ones who make the war possible actually, have absolutely no clue why they are dropping bombs on the innocent people below them. They will do it for a pay check and I submit, this is what is really the alien factor - the idea of using money as the sole motivator for most of the human race's actions. Though I've looked into it, I'm yet to see any evidence of "aliens from outer space". Happy to have that convo though.

Money magics. Print only the principle (and not the interest) and loan it into existence. The alleged (fraudulent) debt can never be repaid.
Some winners, some losers, by design. It's a scam, wholly and completely, and I repudiate it.

Group interaction etiquette, I like it.

Creation and regeneration, got it. Except in self-defense, then it's neutralize the threat, like aim for the kneecaps, got it.
Denise, if your premise holds true, then the "conquering" aliens committing genocide gleefully in Palestine are not our species. They are 'the other'.
