Questions of judgment

January 24, 2014

I wrote a post at this blog last night that I didn’t think about a lot before I published it.  I had read about something and had a funny thought all of a sudden, and, even though I had a feeling that it might not be a good idea to publish it, I did.

I spend a lot of time trying to control my anger about the conglomerate.  Sometimes I’m able to talk about what I’m thinking without being controlled by my anger, and sometimes I’m not.

Being able to tell a joke about something that’s serious doesn’t mean that what’s happening isn’t serious.  Not every joke has to be told; I think that I tend to worry less about saying things that I think are funny than about saying things when I’m enraged, and I should probably try to be concerned about the things I say even when rage isn’t controlling me.
