I would also include the death of the “third place”. Because even if you work enough to survive, where do you spend your time outside of the home with other people in your community without spending money? Even worse options if you want kids allowed.

One of the only places I know of is the library. But I’d be very surprised by an 8-10 year old boy spending their time at the library.

What did he expect to happen?

That’s like complaining about someone punching back after you sucker-punched them.

“Influence” numbers of Andrew Tate & Musk says otherwise. I’m also assuming a large following of those two are unhappy single men.

How to get a lawyer to investigate…

Yeah, this is how businesses work. They provide what you are looking for at that moment. But to get you to come back, they “provide” other items and services for free to get that future business. This is a way businesses can be “long term” greedy. They’ll still make a profit because those additional costs are in the price of your original purchase.

However, you aren’t guaranteed that future business. So, businesses have moved to “short term” greedy by charging for everything else while keeping the original purchase price “competitive” or just as pricey.

Where is Vine?

My sister changed her doctorate focus this year. Since then she has enjoyed her studies and lab work more. I am going to visit her since her professor sent her to a prestigious university for continued education becuase of her lab work.

I’m proud of her.
