  • This is kind of the actual problem though. It's hard to actually have effective charities. Even some of the most ethical, and well run charities, end up with surplus funds (Dolly Parton's charity for example). The government is setup to spend that much money helping people though. But paying taxes is somehow bad and wrong. I don't know if I had a real point other than maybe we should actually tax these rich folks so they can achieve their dream of giving away at least half their wealth.

  • That may be the case, but African Buffalo are like one of the most dangerous animals to humans on the planet. They have long had the nickname of "Black Death" and "Widowmaker" by the locals because they are so aggressive. The bachelor buffalo (older males that don't travel with a herd anymore) are known to be the most dangerous. From the description that's what it sounds like they were tracking. So one of those dudes killing the shit out of someone isn't exactly uncommon even historically.

    Some cracker ass rich dude hunting them and then being killed by one is kind of fucking hilarious. Can you imagine this dipshit thinking that a buffalo wouldn't trample the shit out of him cause his bank account had a bunch of 0's? I just imagine him turning around as he's being charged at and yelling, "You can't do this I have money!"

  • His ex-partner and teenage daughter have been notified of his death.

    I parsed that sentence wrong and the next paragraph didn't help me correct it.

    A close friend of the father revealed: "He spent every spare moment he could with Savannah and shared his life with her. Nobody could love a daughter more than he did...

    I was in full WTF mode for a second there.

    Also can someone explain to me what a luxury ranch is? Cause I just imagine it's a fucked up modern day plantation with extra steps.

  • Ah gotcha. Yeah I certainly saw some early red flags. That makes me feel a little better! Must be something that really bugs you if that's what you focused on in the post. Hope you work through it or accept it as a personal trait. Good luck out there!

  • This has nothing to do with you being white and everything to do with some other personal issue. It sounds like self esteem/self confidence, but I'm no brain scientist. Thinking this has something to do with the color of your skin will surely lead down a dark path though. Maybe go see a speech therapist or the like. They might actually be able to help you with some of those perceived issues.

  • I didn't realize there were some people out there saying, "Good fences make good neighbors" unironically until today. Like the whole poem is the narrator talking about how he isn't so sure if it's true and his neighbor just repeating it. I mean, damn, it's not even a subtext. Like this excerpt pretty heavy handedly says that maybe you shouldn't build an arbitrary wall:

    Spring is the mischief in me, and I wonder

    If I could put a notion in his head:

    ‘Why do they make good neighbors? Isn’t it

    Where there are cows? But here there are no cows.

    Before I built a wall I’d ask to know

    What I was walling in or walling out,

    And to whom I was like to give offense.

    Well huh... I guess you mgiht be a bit wrong.

    Edit: To further clarify, everyone in the actual region calls the coastal states the east coast. That includes New England and the Southern states that touch the Atlantic Ocean. I say this as someone who has lived in every coastal state except for Maine and Florida. So if you try to use "the east coast" to refer to New England, at least in the region you're talking about, people are going to think you mean the states on the coast...
