"That if only people would switch to reusable straws, bags, and rags, stop all single-use items, and abide by zero-waste philosophies, we can ~make an impact.

I do all of these things, but I’m not under the illusion that it will be a significant impact. Nothing much will change if big corporations continue to get away with massive tonnes of plastic waste, carbon emissions, oil spills, etc."

Nor does it make you a bad person, though. Religion in and of itself isn’t inherently good or evil, it’s people’s interpretations of it that do so. That being said, I’m an atheist and think the world would be a better place without religion.

God I hate this. Just recently, I was having a very rough time. I turned to my group of friends, seeking comfort and aid. One of the people in the group (a friend of a friend) immediately responds with the whole "you think You have it bad, well I..." thing. Naturally all of my friends rushed to provide support. To her. Completely ignoring me.

"The whole belief that small animals like reptiles, fish, and rodents have no intelligence and function on instincts alone.

This belief is very harmful in the pet trade due to misinformation including the idea that they don't benefit from any enrichment/stimuli and do best in a tiny empty box given the bare minimum or borderline neglectful care.

These animals are far smarter than people realize. They can recognize faces, can be trained, capable of problem-solving and so much more."

Yep. My mom wants me to forget all about how one of my dad's night-caregivers videotaped me in the shower and used to peek through the windows into my bedroom at night to try and see me naked/changing. My sister FOUND the videotape of me in the shower in the caregiver's room (he rented a room in one of my mom's other properties), and my mom still pretended like it was no big deal. She's still friends with my dad's caregiver even now (my dad died two years ago.) I have not forgiven nor forgotten, and I never will, that my mother chose our employee over her daughter.

Please. I beg of you. Some of us do simply want nothing but the best for our customers. For us smaller shops, getting customers to trust is important. One way we do that is by making sure our customer's vehicles are safe to drive. So if we notice a leaking hose or notice a funny noise that shouldn't be there, we'll let you know so that way you're aware of the problem. We aren't just looking for more money. We leave that for the dealerships."

On another note, the security guards in the stores are not there to protect customers and employees. They're there for loss prevention, protecting the merchandise. However, they have no real power in stopping thieves or stopping deranged people from causing damage and hurting people. The most they'll do is call the police or herd disruptive people out of the store. They're not allowed, at least where I am, to touch anyone.

People can be different sizes while still having the same percentage of body fat, but I think that's definitely more related to your body proportions and (most importantly) amount of muscle. Someone can be mostly muscle with a bit of extra fat and end up looking overweight, while someone with no muscle and the same percentage of fat looks average.
