Do you think that you're going to have to explain the joke, do you still tell it?

I find it disturbing how often discussions about the current administration bring out people talking about taking up arms.

Interesting that you consider reddit a news site.
You're correct. Therapy isn't for everyone. It's for people with mental health problems.
Therapists are just like any other professional. There are good ones and bad ones. If you're seeing a bad one, keep looking until you find a good one.
A whole lot of people in this thread don't understand that a therapist does.
Linux has had a UI for decades now, and it looks a lot better than Windows. Take a look at Garuda.
