#SCOTUS #ruling today reinforced one of my own rules-of-thumb, derived after observing my fellow humans for decades:
ENR. It stands for "Excuses Not Reasons"
means that people will ultimately do whatever they truly *want* to do, deep down. and that any "reason" they give is just BS. either to help mentally justify it to themselves, or to the listener. to give it cover. in reality their reason is merely an excuse
