31. The two party system is slow motion suicide.
It's funny to me. I deal with depression and suicidal thoughts on a fairly regular basis, and if people find out they freak out and want me to stay alive and take care of myself because suicide is such a terrible choice (their words more than mine, trust me). Yet if we commit suicide slowly as a species barely anyone bats an eye. It's like when we're told as kids that all life is precious, when it's clear to anyone with a brain that this isn't the case at all, or even close.

As Alexei Sayle would say, "It's a funny ole world."
