my thoughts on the Chiefs getting wiped out: at the end of No Country for Old Men, Anton Chigurh, the psychopathic antagonist who was to that point less a man than a symbol of inevitability itself, is hit by another car while driving. Even fate’s avatars are not free from its whims.

I will never understand when people try to play on assumed emotions to gather sympathy.
For example, many people on this app ask for donations and tell me that I'm heartless for not donating.
I've never promised a donation.
I just don't know what the heck people expect when I don't have money.
