I believe they actually did see improvements, they just weren’t sustained

Tell me, what have you done so far?

It sounds sketchy, but the text show she herself asks about it and for me that answer doesn’t come across as manipulative or him trying to profit off of her. It would be more worrying if he’d answer something like ‘o that car? You could let me use it’ or ‘I can sell that for you’. I think it’s wrong to assume all old people are vulnerable confused and sick, and also wrong to assume a sex workers has less moral values because of the way they choose to make a living. I think the way they communicate show that a) she has a sound mind and b) he treats her honestly like a friend and not as a target or victim.

Have you also read she lives in Canada while the claimants live in Australia and waited four years to voice their concerns? That says a lot too I believe.

What’s so fucked about them?

Not sure what you mean, shows their relationship was not only about sex/intimacy and actually support my point?

I bet if the male escort wasn’t a male escort but a caring neighbour the family would still come for money, doesn’t read like the nature of their relationship is a problem. They should be grateful for the escort that their aunt had company, considering how awful loneliness is.

This man is clearly dedicated to his business

I was trying to say that. Seeing others puts a ‘narrative’ that is different from theirs in your own head, because you see with your own eyes. Everybody still needs to adress all incoming information, it’s not always apparent it is a false story.

Intense violent changes are more suited for writing stories about than gradual non-violent changes. I’m not saying gradual non-violent changes is what US needs right now, but your statement is false and I think you should stop instigating violence in this thread.

5 million people are doing something, your comment is shitting on their effort.

there’s also immense value is reminding people that they’re not as singular in their viewpoint as they feel.

This destroys the narrative of the protested party. They cannot convincingly talk about ‘a few misguided people disagreeing’ when you see so many others who feel like you. Even if nothing would be achieved by the protest, this is an immensely powerful confirmation of an individuals beliefs. 100% agree.

Welcome to 2025 son

I like these a lot better since the dishes are put a lot higher, meaning more space to move between the shelf and the sink. Guess this makes me no longer young.

Necessary resources*

no, only ‘if necessary’ lol

It’s a representation

Sounds like you never passed Experiencing Earth: 10 Things That Cost Energy To Do because last time I checked lifting weights definitely cost energy.

Only people who are against democracy say stuff like this.

I really want to see the shelves on other topics now

Both might be true. Being poor seems to make people more empathic too.
