the term "brainless wastoid" doesnt come across as dehumanization to you? thats strange. I think we are okay with taking people without brain activity off life support, so it certainly screams dehumanization to me. > You are th

I can't imagine NOT working, just 100% pure leisure does not feel like a dream i have. If you can lump passion projects into leisure? then sure, i guess its my dream as well, because working on what I would prefer instead of having to

did you give the grocery store an account name and tons of other information while stealing and they still allowed it? and welcomed you back the next visit, for years on end using those same credentials? also did the grocery store start out
