I love my partner’s bigger t-shirts. I genuinely feel more comfortable and warm, especially on my shoulders. They can’t sleep unless the AC is set below 70, AND we have a window unit in the bedroom.

Oh wow - I totally did the alternate dimension thing too, hahaha!!! That’s hilarious. I bet it’s not uncommon, tbh

It goes both ways. Not all racists have the legitimate ignorance excuse - many just want a convenient excuse to have an “other” to blame their problems on so that they don’t have to take responsibility for their own failures in life.

In a way littering is similar - some folks just don’t give a fuck, others were raised not to think twice about it and so they don’t. The second group can probably be educated though.

There are ignorant people in every group who can be reasoned with and realize they’re wrong, and change.

And there are malicious dickheads who just don’t give a fuck who their destructive behavior hurts in the process and will continue on their path to watch the world burn.

The issues themselves aren’t always the main qualifier.

Just to clear up any confusion - you can understand violence and racism, but not littering?

And if I do understand correctly, maybe it’s because that’s how their parents were, so they honestly just don’t think about it. My parents were the complete opposite so I abhor it, but I’ve known folks who don’t think twice. We’re still friends, I just try to gently remind them.

I do not have any racist or violent actual friends friends though. Like, I don’t actively pursue their company.

God I wish.

It’s true because I have a bidet.

I believe Iceland has this as well.

Not all heroes wear capes. Thanks from the dystopian state of Texas, OP <3

If they don’t have fixed rate, they’re in a pickle.

A co-worker of mine was in the later stages of a difficult pregnancy. We worked 9/80’s and had every other Friday off. A manager was upset because she was having to take so much time off from work to go to doctor’s appointments.

He didn’t understand why she just couldn’t go on off Fridays.

Her doctor did surgery on Fridays, not “regular” appointments. So yes, you’re 100% correct.

IIRC it was around 10,000 French words that were introduced into English after that. That’s what we learned in school, anyway.

I never knew about the prosciutto/ham, but tajin makes everything better!

My mom eats it with salt. It’s actually not bad, I enjoy it either way. The salt does give it an interesting flavor, so maybe try that if it might enable you to like it more.

Unrelated, but I love that you discovered this image and worked so hard to figure out the answer to your question. I had also never heard of the Top View community, and it’s so interesting - subscribed! Thanks, OP :)

You may enjoy a book that came out a few years ago by Amanda Ripley called “The Unthinkable - Who Survives when Disaster Strikes and Why”.

I can somewhat relate to what you’re describing (though maybe not to that extreme) and found that this book did a good job of helping me to understand the mindset of folks in these situations so as to ponder what I might have done had I been in their place in a somewhat realistic way.

9/11 and other plane crashes were just a couple of things that she focused on.

Thank you for posting these!

Seems like a big risk if they fuck it up.

I could see the career side for the fulfillment - I left a higher paying job for a lower paying one but work more hours because I’m genuinely more mentally challenged and I find that enjoyable.

I have no desire to go into management however.

Ah, worms! Of course this is how it begins!

Thanks!
