59. You seem to think your secret is important
Sun Jun 18, 2023, 07:12 AM
Jun 2023

We see it's important because we see you posting it often.

You are posting frequently your secret count on a public forum as if you believe it is important to the public forum. Why else post on a public discussion forum? You aren't posting for your own ego. That would be selfish and you are mindful of community.

You don't expect us to guess what your private count is. You are intelligent so you don't expect us to be able to guess. Because you are knowledgeable and know that there are many variations of counts surrounding different public events.

For example, it is 878 days since Biden was inaugurated. 28 months, 28 days. Which is really 29 months. But somebody could call it 28 months, if they were rounding it off by truncation.

But that would be a celebration. And being a cheerful Democratic sort, you would celebrate that on a public forum.

A Republican would say the 28 months represents the time the usurper Biden is occupying the Oval Office that is rightly Trump's. But you are not a Republican. You might be a republian or a mushroom, whatever those are. But you are not a Republican.

It is 893 days since the attempted insurrection. 29 months, 12 days. That's 29 months and so that's not it.

It is 864 days since Biden stopped some arms sales to Saudi Arabia. 28 months 14 days. Perhaps you have family that was killed by Houti rebels.

It's something negative that happened between January 18th, and Feb. 18th 2021. But not personal to you, because you are not selfish.

So it's not ego.
It's not stupidity.
It's not selfishness.
It's not double standards.
It's not celebrating Joe Biden.
It's not a Republican complaint.
It's not lack of awareness of public events.
It's not marking the attempted insurrection.
It's not a republican or republian code signalling to mushrooms.

It could be arms sales ban.

Do you have any idea of why you are using a public forum? I believe you do because you are intelligent. Care to share in the space you've been using?
