I know that this is so random and so niche but has anyone watched Veep and read Shakespeares King Lear and also feel like Selena Meyer and King Lear are just so similar.

They both have an incredibly quick temper, cursing out anyone who doesn’t instantly do exactly what they want. They’re both narcissists, love power and control AND they both descend into madness.
They also both end up completely alone because they’re both sociopaths and alienate everyone.

Hahaha please I need someone to confirm this I can’t be the only one who’s made this connection

I think I am a relatively good person. I have great friends, I love my family, I’m respectful to my teachers and other people I just feel like there is more that I could be doing to make the world a better place.

Recently I’ve been thinking about what we really have and as humans I think that the only thing we have is each other. Us. Human connection. As people, I believe that we owe it to each other to be kind, empathetic, and listen. I don’t think there is anything more important than my duty to be a good person.

Does anyone have any thoughts?
