I imagine that would be really annoying, like how do you process unhelpful emotions; if when you think about them they start back up?

I have this, but for mushrooms....cooked mushrooms have the worst taste, the smell gets into the rest of the food and ruins it.

That is a great way of framing it.

It isn't like that.

e.g. So a situation I get angry / sad about happens. Unless it keeps up the feelings wane over the next few minutes, thinking about the triggering events does not bring back the emotions.....if I want to stay angry, I have to really work at it too keep the emotion going, it is never "worth" the effort.

If one thing makes me angry, and I haven't had a few minutes to let the emotion fade, and something else tips me off then the anger builds at the new thing and fades for the old thing; it just happens faster.

In saying that, I really don't get angry all that often; as I have worked through most of the things that set me off. Except bullying, that still fucks me off to no end.

I can't stay angry; I have multi-sensory aphantaisa, this comes with not being able to re-experience emotions.

I remember that something made me angry, but I can't relive the emotion. It lets me dispassionately examine the past to see what made me angry and thus work through the trigger and try to reduce it in the future.

There is the downside to this, it is on all emotion, so I also can't re-experience happy emotions either.

"Wyatt Earp is my friend."

That scene always gets me, it's one of the greatest in all cinema.

I hear that truth social is a "target rich environment" for scammers.

So if Vance takes over, will you then have a ottoman empire?

The bastard child of a delorean and a countach...but in a good way.

I like the look, but the engineering, cost, reliability but mostly the Nazi; make it a non-option.

I didn't know who he was, so had a quick read of his Wikipedia page

Robinson was drafted for service during World War II but was court-martialed for refusing to sit at the back of a segregated Army bus, eventually being honorably discharged.

What a legend.

So ramp up tension with either Canada or Mexico; then manufacture some incident and invade to "protect democracy" or some shit....bada bing bada boom, a nice little war and the ability to declare martial law.
