I know it's not implausible, but the fabrication about contacting the company that had the contract to make the signs blew it all apart, the fonts are heavily controlled and copyrighted and they would lose the city contract if they got caught, no sign printing company is going to go out of business to make six bucks off some random dude.

This is a lie.

Wow, can you say in brief what happened?

In the mating game it's up to the guys to advertise interest and the gals to make a choice.

Women are pros at dealing with endless expressions of interest, they rarely know how to show/express it. Just be respectful and let go of expectations going in.

Don't let the endless whining seen on social media deter you, it's mostly lies.

If men bore the babies and women had to do the mating advertising, the human race would be extinct.

I refuse to accept that you're looking for any answer.

I think validation is what you're seeking and we can't give that to you.

I think it comes down to one of two things, reimagine your relationship with your family, or clean your place.

Another weak, sentiment-based opinion with no real positive ideas.

Take it from somebody that works in the system and has for many years... What we are missing are actual services.

Like 10 times more detox beds. Dedicated treatment centers staffed by psychologists and therapists. We need social housing.

Nothing is ever going to work with any form of forced healing, until the services are in place so that when a person voluntarily wants to obtain healing, it's actually available to them.

You don't have to live up to any kind of ridiculous standard, but you have to embrace all of the unpleasant tasks that come with inviting people to your space.

The biggest one is that you can't have people leaving filthy and covered in cat hair.

I know you have a cat, but you have to figure out how to balance your cat ownership and your desire or intention to host people in your home.

Clean the cat hair. Vacuum the furniture. Think about how you would feel if you had a cat allergy and had to go to somebody's home and drag all that filth home with you.

Don't get me wrong, I like cats, but let's be real.

I used to use (paid) Boost but it has more bugs than an entomology lab and I'm just fucking sick of it.

Recently switched to Voyager, and it's not as feature rich, but the features are much more stable.

Persecution is baked right into the Christian religion. It's also deeply rooted in the Jewish culture, to the point if you're randomly walking down the street and trip over a duck, the duck was being anti-semitic.

It's such a core part of identity for these people it's kind of sickening. Before you come at me, I was raised in a Christian household and I have Jewish roots from my maternal side.

There's no hate, but I'm actually disappointed and continually revolted by the endless sense of persecution that doesn't really exist.
