What if I learned Spanish and got a job for Google in San Salvador? How many years do you think it would take for Bukele to realize I'm his top guy and make me the governor of a significant trade district?
When I talk to someone on adhd meds it's like the scene in Jurassic Park 2 when the kids find the tiny raptors, and they're like "oh these aren't so bad" but they can apprehend the carnivorous intentions in those beady little eyes.
Play with a few thousand dollars at a casino and they say you have a gambling problem, but stake 100s of thousands on a bet with the government that you'll make it to 65 and that's considered a great investment.

Elle Fanning's aquiescence to watching a tv show her husband wants to watch but she's not really interested in but she doesn't have anything better to do and she's going to scroll on her phone anyway.

In the Adams-Jefferson correspondence you can see some minor spelling differences between them. I like the idea that there were multiple respected ways to write correct English. Descriptivism for 130+ iq anglos.
I like how, despite his personal quirks, Warhol generally ran his art business like a typical tightwad, mercenary, slipshod, opportunistic immigrant small business owner.
Being a stay-at-home mom sounds better than a bullshit office job, but I get how it's less glamorous than the life of travel and parties most girls imagine. I bet the ones that flip out are probably alone a lot.
