I looked it up and it turns out it’s both, for different reasons. Autistic folks do it naturally and unconsciously. Sociopaths and psychopaths do it to manipulate others into seeing them as more likeable, though for some, they can do it so much that it becomes less deliberate.

Need motivation? Your goal is to write 500 words today. Every time you complete a sentence, a guy you hate gets kicked in the balls. Your goal is for him to end up on his knees, holding blood where his dignity used to be. You don’t have to be a good person today, just a writer.

Our kids are watching the debate. Our 13 year old has a text chain that just lost it when Trump spouted the false rumor about the eating of pets. Six kids are texting my kid demanding her political science dad explain how this man became president and why he’s so different than social studies class.

“She’s the worst president in the history of this country!” Y’all. He just made her president.
