I’m assuming this is on a dating app…

Maybe I’m an asshole but good conversations are a dime a dozen. If we go out, have a good connection and make plans? Personally, I’ll apologize to the others I’m chatting with but I get the ghosting. What percentage of “good” (generally just fine with maybe a solid joke) app convos lead to a connection we both want to pursue? Not all that many.

I didn’t go to a job because I wanted to watch trailer park boys. Don’t know how unique that is though, it’s a pretty good show.

Check local community colleges? My province has a few that offer pretty decent coding courses.

I’ve never met/zoomed/chatted with a teacher in real time but you can usually ask questions in lecture or whatnot.

No one can change everything but everyone can change something.

Ach, totally fair.

I use Connect and tag users rather than block them. That way, I can still see stuff that’s posted but I have a hint as to whether or not they are someone with whom I want to interact.

All of a sudden or suddenly. Leaning back on old camp counsellor story telling, I think all of a sudden would be better for building tension whereas a quick, staccato **suddenly! **acts like a verbal bang or jump start, if that makes any sense.

Ha, I had the same reaction but the opposite way: the sudden?

The more useful framing might be someone like Ford.

I’d be hard pressed to argue Musk hasn’t had some sort of a hand in a couple significant technological movements (Tesla, SpaceX) but that doesn’t make his political positions worthy of respect.

Similarly, for all his flaws, Ford revolutionized the factory. That didn’t make his Brazilian city work, his shitty anti semetic views right or his “meh” attitudes on ww2 correct.

Musk’s successes don’t particularly quality him on everything.

I had no idea there was a dance, thanks for sharing! Gonna have to practice my booty shakin’!

I think so! There’s a pretty good shop for theatrical makeup so I should be able to get those hauntingly white eyebrows at an almost reasonable price.

Mr Clean. Easy and one of the handful of bald friendly costumes.

Yeah, you might want to look into current Catholic doctrine:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catholic_Church_and_homosexuality#:~:text=The Church teaches that same,%2C compassion%2C and sensitivity".

Youngling, she’s a hard Catholic. If you can’t imagine why a lifestyle would offend a hard Catholic, well, that’s on you.

Afd just won a third of the vote.

You would like control of some industry ti maybe just go the far right?

Okay, would you rather the Germans who voted AFD? Or the rise of the French National Party? Or Fidesz in Hungary? Or PPV in Denmark?

Shit, you’d better tell that to my aunt who told me how my lifestyle hurts her.

Half of America wants to vote for trump and you want to trust in random people? That seems like a wild leap of faith.

In theory, democracy produces satisfactory outcomes…
