The bulldozing have begun in Big Bends National Park and I'm enraged.

We need to band together as fellow Americans ( I'm Texan) to stop this awful destruction from happening. It seems like no one cares. Are we literally this weak as a people? Albanians have been protesting for over 70 days straight to protect their Island. What the hell are we doing? We need to be out there blocking them from doing their job. This is our land, not Trump. Please send this to your friends or other group to spread the word. This is so serious.

Update:

People are out there protesting now. I'm feeling hopeful.🥹

The Bulldozing of Big Bends National Park Begins fellow Dallas residents

Advice on traveling to Germany

I'm 39F and doing my first solo traveling out of the country this year for 6 weeks to Europe and North Africa- Morocco. I'm stuck in planning my trip because of Germany, and need quick advice on which city I should go and skip/save for another time. I'm a history and nature lover but I am torn between the Neuschwanstein Castle and Dachau. Which places should I go? Also, its literally killing me I'll have to skip Nurmenberg because of time constraints but I can't miss the town Bamberg, its super pretty.

To give you my itinerary to Germany: Berlin- 3 days, Dresden-1 day, Bamberg-1 day, Fussen-1 day, Munich-Dachau 1 day.

The trip in Germany is supposed to be 7 days but I've reduced it down to 6 days. I'm thinking about cutting off another city to make it 5 days just to be at the 6 weeks mark. I will use Munich to lay my head, however, I'll be traveling to other places outside the city. What do you think? Should I skip the castle? Ugh, I hate this. My brain hurts 😫.

I'm emotionally tired of rude/ mean people. It's getting to me.

I thought I had reached a hurdle last night while working with people in their rudeness, unfortunately I didn't. The public's continued rudeness was painful for me to take. Yesterday, I was doing a new assignment at work and the lead there was constantly on my back telling me to hurry up, and then rolled his eyes at me for fixing a honest mistake which did put us back a bit. I just didn't want to forget guest names which was very important.

At another job on Tuesday, a lady was incredibly rude to me for not placing a water bottle in her seating area. I understood her frustration but I was new and I had genuinely forgot. This lady rolled her eyes and was annoyed by me. She had the most classic look of entitlement written on her face. I told her I was new and she didn't care.

In the past, I would be so hard on myself but I decided to be gentle towards myself, learn from my mistakes, and move on which was a challenge because of my strong feelings. I think her reaction and my coworker's behavior started to slowly get under my skin, causing me to become emotionally drained.

I also have a habit of saying unwarranted "sorry" to people for minor hippcups in a situation most individuals would think nothing about afterwards. I did see a therapist about this issue but boy its been eating me up alive lately.

To give context on why I always say sorry for nothing: I suffered emotional abuse in my childhood from my father.

It made me feel insecure and scared asking for help and once again I would always apologize to people if I feel I've made a mistake. My father words recked me. They affected my work life and relationship with people. I'm taking one day at a time by practicing self love but it can be tough, especially working with mean people.

It doesn't help I'm sensitive too. I feel intense pain when people treat others wrong. I hate this. Sometimes I wish I was a sociopath so I don't have to be so damn sensitive anymore. Why should I care for humanity if they treat one another horribly? Why should I care for people being bombed in different places if these same people would eventually harm me and others too.

Activists are a joke. They will holler "free whatever" but will turn around and gossip about their fellow peers. They can't see their own hypocrisy. They act like the false religious people in your local church or worship center. There is no difference. Humans can suck.

I asked God to make me a sociopath. I even told him I'll trade my soul to be one because I hate these intense feelings I'm having. I just don't want others to affect me anymore. I am tired. Please be kind to me. I am being vulnerable. Words of encouragement and advice is much needed. If you are blunt be thoughtful and compassionate, I know the difference. Thanks.

Fatal Crash on S. 360 Trinity Blvd.

I got an alert on my phone about this accident. I was thinking about my loved ones and found out they came home safely an hour ago. Any more details about this?
