When you see someone say something incredibly stupid, you always have at least two choices. You can believe that they are that stupid, or you can believe that, for some reason, their mind and/or voice either can’t, or doesn’t, go in the direction needed. So when the two hundred pound girl with the short cut orange hair talks about how no one seems to ask her out on a date… you ask yourself… is she really that stupid?

Thank you for reading Von’s Substack. I would love it if you commented! I love hearing from readers, especially critical comments. I would love to start more letter exchanges, so if there’s a subject you’re interested in, get writing and tag me!
Being ‘restacked’ and mentioned in ‘notes’ is very important for lesser-known stacks so… feel free! I’m semi-retired and write as a ministry (and for fun) so you don’t need to feel guilty you aren’t paying for anything, but if you enjoy my writing (even if you dramatically disagree with it), then restack, please! Or mention me in one of your own posts.
If I don’t write you back it is almost certain that I didn’t see it, so please feel free to comment and link to your post. Or if you just think I would be interested in your post!
Thanks again, God Bless, Soli Deo gloria,
Von
