Money is a motive like any motive. If I was a mom and my kid agreed to it, that's up to them.

I adapted something like that when making my comics (I mean there's a reason they call it Comic Sans) and it has stuck.

Did you learn how you got that?

As a parent or as a kid?

 

What’s their story?

That is situational. Preferably people don't lie. However, nuance can make it inevitable.

I once watched an anime called Usagi Drop. In it, the oldest member in an enormous family, who was in his eighties, ends up, ahem, "going around", and he dies having fathered a girl, who, in the big picture of the family's family tree, is the great aunt of several of the characters who are well into adulthood. Japan is a nation that considers such matters highly controversial and stigmatized, and this was a major plot point in the show. The young adult characters decide it's best to "adopt" her and not reveal her origins as a form of protection. Would totally recommend the anime nevertheless.

Can you imagine if the Allies were fighting the Axis powers, and while making the ghost army, the Allies were like "yeah, those tanks are inflatables, it's Normandy we'll be going after"?

If I was a mother to a poly teen, I'd welcome them as if it were any kind of relationship. People who prefer a type of relationship typically do so because something in it is beneficial (obviously). Poly relationships are no different from LGBT ones where there is a driving force towards it, and there's nothing "wrong" with it. The rules of love are what the participants make of it and agree on (look up relationship anarchy).

Did they use tokens and prize tickets too?

I like that game too.

I've heard of the rabbit plague but never would've made that connection.

Always found it akin to the perfect example of Murphy's Law that humans are the one invasive species that doesn't thrive well there.

 

So I'm fairly social for someone like me and have done my fair share of talking to people as well as toward people, some talks being more passionate than others, so I guess having my odds of this reduced is a factor here when I say occasionally "projecting" will be brought up during a conversation. One should "stop projecting" they might say. It's always in an accusatory kind of context, with being described a certain way by someone else often being connected to the latter person fitting what they're thinking of.

Is this... a meme for a lack of a better word? Where does this conceivably come from? Seeing such a thing all the time, I can't fathom the mindset, it seems so faulty my mind groups it in with grievance misapplication. Why would someone play hot potato with things even deemed to be things nobody should be handling like it's second nature? How could someone in control subconsciously see instinct in this? What happened the last time this came up for you, when did it turn out to be the case?

 

This seems to be something people don’t always give second thought to. When people talk about the homeless, the first things thought about are images of people on busy city streets in rusty clothes waiting around near allies. In there, the answer is quite static, because it can be I guess. But if that’s the case, change the setting and that changes too. In the places where I’ve lived, people often needed that mapped out. Where are they known in your rural locales?

 

To those from the Western hemisphere, it’s always fascinating to hear that some homes and businesses from the times of the Greek philosophers still have inhabitants, and then you remember that the Western hemisphere is itself not without its own examples, for example some Mexican villages still have temples from the times of the Mayans.
