If it relates to wrongdoing against other people just trash them and try to make THEM the perps and you the poor innocent crucified vic and double down on attacking them and calling them fake/phony. It is working beautifully in the US on many levels, especially politics. You get elected no matter how sleazy you are or what creepy things you did...some criminal. Folks don't give a rat's a** about character these days. Just give 'em that good old fashioned sweet talking lies and you own them. So the basketball players followed suit.

In the meantime I have to be extra special careful with it because sometimes it catches on things and tears a little more. Ouch! Perhaps I should keep my nails a little shorter so this doesn't happen so often. I'm often lifting heavy things at work and it's probably not such a good idea to keep my fabulous nails so long.

Do you take whatever they give you and defend them for it and love them for it even though they lied to you, disrespected you, cheated you and ridiculed you for believing them in the first place? How much do you value them and how little do you value yourself? Why?
