Machiavelli the great political theorist wrote it is better that a Prince be respected and feared than loved and above all he must never be despised. How do you feel about being mad and feared or ridiculed?

Whenever I am stressed or worried I turn to this app called Happify. And fortunately it really works for me. The problem is my iPhone 7 got updated to iOS 11.3 today and now when I am opening the app it only is loading a blank white screen and crashes itself. Can anyone please please help me fix it? Or atleast give a good alternative to it or something I need help.
You can't go the other way though.
There's a chinese story about a nice emperor and a nasty prime minister. They decide to swap demeanors, the emperor becomes nasty, the prime minister nice.
A year later the emperor has been executed and the prime minister is the new emperor.
However, on second thought..yeah, real world/stigma...I dunno, I'd rather break down stereotypes, misconceptions & ignorance about mental illness than play to the Rogues Gallery, frankly.
Just cause someone says you're/it is 'scary' or 'detestable' does not mean you have to live down to their dim estimation, after all. Fuck 'em.
Hmm...why would I be feared...
Heeeeeeee :P x

ridiculed i've been used to - doesnt really matter to me at this point. i try to teach my kids that they'll get along better if they dont either...
far better to be roled in olive oil & sprinkled with saffron encrusted spanish almonds...
I just got a message from someone saying how they feared the shit out of me!!!!
And I have never done anything to this person.
Except make a post joking about how I wanted to throw my one eyed, one eared, fat ass, 15 year old, extra thumbed, looks like she's pregnant but she's fixed (you get the picture, c'mon, how could you NOT make fun of this damn cat?!?) under an 18 wheeler....which, BTW I would never do....
Which, BTW, this person took personally.
WHY, I do not know...
It was something said in jest...
I make fun of the damn cat all the time. Its actually a favorite pastime of mine. Today, I called home and left a message on the machine for the Dog to go and sit on the cat (who was likely sleeping on the sofa) so that he could smother her. He is a 100lb rottie/lab mix and he despises her more than I do. My dad is always calling me telling me how bad the dog is when I am not home. I know why he is bad. Its because he hates the cat!!! He takes after me. HEHE.
