The concept of noblesse oblige really needs to be restored and expanded. Most of us have advantages we don’t understand. It’s why charity and compassion is so important.

Yeah, this is a point espoused by people who see themselves as wolves, but end up finding out they are actually pigs.
A rainy mixed forest.
Petrichor mixed with woody decomposition and pine. Perfection. Add a touch of woodsmoke and baking, and there’s nothing that says home more to me.
Very quickly, to get it over with.
Do you really think that church and religion is the primary source of child abuse? You sweet summer child.
Downvotes don’t make you less right. Basic comprehension is a vanishing skill. And people don’t have the ability to think beyond their own narrow circumstance. There are reasons laws protecting criminals exist. People who fail to understand those reasons really don’t have valid opinions.
You realize that ALL criminals are protected, right? That’s what “innocent until proven guilty” means.
There were multiple. It went on a couple of years.

Almost all of them.
It’s not hard to not buy things.
Carl’s Jr. because of that awful sexualized man campaign. Awful ad campaigns also for Dove, Axe, Jimmy John’s and Jersey Mike’s. I’m sure there are others I’m not remembering at the moment.
Burger King and Chili’s because of cavalier attitudes towards food poisoning.
McD’s, Twitter, Susan G. Komen, commercialized fundraising of any kind, and Reddit for obvious reasons.
Lots of games I won’t play and apps I won’t download because of their ads.
When at every visit, I started having to go through my parents’ fridge to replace their expired food.
This only applies if your morals are based on nothing more than consequences, which I would argue is no moral code at all.
This, completely. I didn’t even know how much I depended on reading lips until everyone worth listening to was wearing a mask.
Companies hiring for my career are having a hard time finding skilled employees for anything other than fully remote.
That happened to me, but now they are taking it again.
So much happiness in this little sound.
I don’t think he’s redeemable because at this point, he’s choosing to be what he is. I still empathize a bit with his circumstances, though. He was created to be what he is. I pity him. Same as my ex husband. They both bluster because they are, inside, incredibly insecure. They know on a subconscious level that they don’t contribute anything worthwhile, and they fear they aren’t worthy of respect or love. So they resort to control and fear.
It is quite pathetic, really. Thank heaven my ex doesn’t have Trump’s platform. His tyranny is much more localized.
Eradicating class will never work, either.
