THIS. A million times, THIS.

Money would solve 70% of my problems, and I could pay a therapist to help me with the last 30%

I would say that having good, hard-working parents is even more important and crucial that having rich parents. The right mentality can make you go a long way

Makes you wonder if plagues and pandemics are natures way of culling humans

In Business this is called the hooker paradox, the better you do your job, more people want to f**k you

In the US, if you have enough money and influence, you absolutely can be above the law. In fact, we currently have a man who's been convicted of multiple felonies and not only is he still walking around free, but his sentencing was kindly delayed so he could run for president.

Yeah sadly they do, I look very normal / plain when I go out make up free but done up Im very pretty (made a living out of it) , and I like to take notice of the bias in people depending on my look. I used to go further in art school and mix up my old goth look into it too. Turns out no matter what ‘clique’ you dress for, there’s always gonna be haters, but lots of love too ❤️

Religion should be like underwear. If it fits you, wear it. Don't force others to wear it & don't let your behind hang out of it for others to see....

The parents often are also a******s. Otherwise they would do something.

Unpopular opinion. I kinda like it that way anyway. Why would you want to maintain contact with your high school friends who are now so far removed from your life? Sure, if you somehow run into one another, a little chat over coffee is welcomed. But to keep your life story updated, organizing yearly re-unions and whatnots - naah!

Private enterprise devotes an enormous amount of time and money working at having as few laws and regulations as possible. It is worse than government. Government may be inept, but it’s usually fairly benign. Private enterprise is sociopathic and greedy.

I love my kids, but I'll be the first to admit that they both looked like a cross between frogs and an old man for the first 3 months or so.

I guess I'm the odd one out because I disagree. I was a doula for several years and got to be present when many babies entered the world. I genuinely found them all so cute. It was such a privilege to snuggle brand new babies on the regular. The one in the pic above? Adorable.

My daughter was actually really pretty the first couple of weeks... then she got a bit gremlin like for about a month and then back to pretty... it was weird. But yeah... not all babies are pretty!

they all look like knees. All of them

I have seen new borns or a few months old babies and people will say isn't she or he cute, and I am thinking no, it isn't cute.

But the MIL shouldn't be the one to point it out to the new mother. It destroyed the already tense relationship between my mother and her MIL completely.

I was a beauty. hahaha

I dunno maybe I was predijust but I thought mine was a lil wrinkled cutie 🥰

And yet we love them anyway! I guess looks don't matter after all.

My older two kids came out looking like some unholy combination of Danny Devito and Tommy Lee Jones. My youngest looked like a renaissance cherub. Third times the charm, I guess.

I know someone whose kids both looked like they'd been made out of a cross between raw dough and a potato. Privately, I called them the "World's Ugliest Babies." They...ah...did not improve with age.

And sometimes they apologise to end the conflict despite not being in the wrong.

Is this an American thing? I don't think I've ever started an email with platitudes.

That one guy did, and discovered a clause about winning $1000 if you were the first person to contact the company about the clause!

All people are equal. But some are more equal than equal.

Not if I eat the Mona Lisa

People with depression and similar issues are in this category

I’m 50 and I still feel like I’m stuck in my teens mentally sometimes. As someone once said to me, I may grow old, but I will never grow up :D

there's an author in my country that says that "Only when the last tree is cut down, the last fish is caught, the last river is polluted, will people realize that they cannot eat money", i wish more people would listen to what he has to say

We don't "prefer to believe..." We are fed that lie so that we work like slaves to make a few people rich instead of admitting the system is against us and we'll just survive paycheck to paycheck forever. We are closer to being homeless than rich. Any misfortune can make you destitute, however hard you've worked.

That the Universe even exists is really, really weird. Where did all this come from? No invoking a creator deity, because you're just kicking the can down the road - where did that deity come from?

It's the ones who complain about things entirely within their control that bug me!

Sometimes that f****r needs a punch in rhe mouth.

Often speaking to each other in person resolves issues more quickly than a Q&A via email

I work in the gaming industry. The amount of people I hear that make a living, professional poker played etc. All BS. The pros you see on TV are sponsored but the on-line gaming platforms. That's how the make a living. Poker at best is a game where you can apply strategy the same way you can in monopoly ludo or parchís. But at the end of the day it's a game of chance.

I've seen them be judgemental of more, than straight people

That is the plot of many Sci-Fi stories.
