As part of the woke crowd, what I want to see is the „mainstreamification“ of respect for and safety of the people in sex work. You know, because they’re people.

You should check the documentation in your local capitalist agency office for when you signed up. Maybe your minimum term is soon ending.

As shitty as that is of him, this is sadly what often happens with homeless people or people with substance abuse problems. Push them away, so people no longer see the problems that society should try to help with. Which by the way is something a government should do. So a president who sees a lot of homeless people on his daily routes could get the idea that his government should do something? Well unsurprisingly, not this one…

If I know, I‘ll probably pass someone asking for money, I try to have some change prepared, so I don’t have to get out my wallet. (Where I live, there are just a few places where that’s likely. ) I usually just say no if unprepared. My basic assumption is that someone asking for money in the streets is worse off than me, so it’s nice if I can help. But then again, if I don’t feel safe, I won’t give anything and since I can’t help everyone I don’t feel bad not giving anything.

I found it hard to find where the cost comes from in this article. I found this other article (in German) that gives more detail.

Good to know, that I should be rich, since I don’t own a car. 👍

At least KeePassium also supports passkeys.

Just adding to „It will take a while“. It would be faster if you‘d been fit before because the body remembers. But you should feel strength improvements and you should feel better quite soon. And clothes might be less tight. But visible results take longer. And after a while you’ll hit a tableau and you’ll have to power through that without giving up. It will be best if you don’t focus on looks too much but rather on feeling good and fit. Kudos for starting this path!

Yes, that’s just the driving school version. The trainer sits in the „house“ on top. The driver is behind the small opening a bit further to the front.

I immediately remember these and have enjoyed them very much:

• The Monk and Robot series by Becky Chambers
• Murderbot Diaries by Martha Wells
