    If your mental health is in that kind of state, please get rid of the gun. The world is better with you here, and we need each other the fight that’s coming.

    And if we need guns later, I’m a hobbyist that’s been collecting them for years and I’ve got a TON of them.

      Yes, please, no matter how you feel right now if you are super depressed and you buy a gun anyways, keep it at a friend’s or family member’s place who has guns that you trust, there is no shame in that hell everyone understands, let them have it and go to the range and stuff to target shoot and have fun together as a way of connecting.

      Don’t keep it in your house, with ammunition.

      Life is really fucking hard right now and brutal permanent choices are almost always a bad idea.

      I can’t imagine any 100lb bag of rice being worse off because one grain is missing.

        It’s your life, but you cant predict the future. Maybe there is a chance things work out and you get to a better place in life?

        That analogy would work if people were genuinely as identical, thoughtless and replaceable as grains of rice.

        Grains of rice don’t live, don’t love, don’t build relationships and societies with each other. People do.

        Take your ice cream koan elsewhere.
