What he meant was, HE should be free to say whatever HE wants. The rest of us poors don’t matter.

You again?

You again? Feel whatever you want, but making new accounts to repost similar threads isn’t going to do anything but make folks stop reading.

OK, if that’s what you want.

Just as long as you’re aware that you’re working HARD to make your situation worse - particularly by refusing any sort of assistance.

You’re free to express yourself here, and we’re free to notice (and say) that you’re harming yourself.

I just thrifted them, so I don’t know how old they are - but Carolina still makes this model, so probably not more than a few yearsv old. The heels are VERY worn, so I’ll have my cobbler fix that.

But the uppers are incredibly nice. The leather was pretty dry, so I oiled them a bit, and they softened up quite nicely. They’re pretty comfy.

I’ll likely keep them as general-purpose boots - friends moving, general outdoor work, etc. - and then wear them just when I feel like wearing a pair of boots.

Cleaned up these boots. And I hate speed hooks, so I converted them to D-rings.

Some of the ways he acted? They seem questionable to most folks, myself included. But through the lens of his emotional and psychological issues? They could have appeared harmful but actually been harmless.

For example: Is it weird for an adult celebrity to have pajama parties with kids? Yes. Is it harmful if it was, in fact, only a pajama party? Probably not.

Michael Jackson is a complex figure with huge cultural import. That doesn’t change the fact that he may have been a problematic individual.

In some ways, he may have been less harmful than other historic figures. But that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t question the possible bad things he did.

A lead pipe would do it.

Their primary goal is to ensure the company remains compliant with global privacy regulations.

They’re lying. They don’t care about you at all.

My Moto G Stylus 5G 2023 (worse name) works fine, but it’s bigger than I’d like. Also, the camera is worse than I was expecting.

I’d still be using my old Moto X4 if the power button hadn’t failed.

First they’d need to start making good smartphones again.
