Casting a wider net.

Some people just have to work harder in certain fields than others. You're skills may be in building, writing, gardening or something else but they're not in attracting a wide variety of matches and that's ok. I also suck at making dating profiles, don't photograph well and don't have the most interesting job.

I just need to put in more hours on Hinge and reach out to more people than a friend of mine who says he just opens the app and can get a date within the hour.

For context, if I'm actively looking I can usually swing one or two dates a month which is fine for my schedule as I work and have other things I'm doing in my free time. I'm also in my 30s so am matching with people who also have busy schedules which makes scheduling even harder.

Both are happening.

It's important to understand what went wrong so when you with on a fix, you won't make the same mistake.

People can both bitch about politicians and also help fix the problem.

So long as the donor checks keep clearing, establishment Dems are happy to play spoiler for big business and let Trump destroy the country.

Many things are social constructs, but we also live in social groups

It's as opposed to right wing Democrats who are also making islamophobic attacks against him.

I had a friend who did consulting right out of college. Half the time he said it was his job to suggest layoffs so the people in charge could pretend it wasn't their idea.

Consulting services rarely are there to help figure out what to do, they're there to help convince other people that what you want to do is the right move.

Yeah, that's a tough one.

If you're young, that's just how it is right now. You're totally valid in feeling frustrated or inadequate but also know you're not doing especially badly compared to others in your position.

If you're older, it just takes some people longer before the pieces fall into place. Right person wrong time kind of deal.

I suck at arithmetic, so I prefer stopping one step earlier.

This from the person who spent $600 million in taxpayer dollars on a new stadium that her husband's company has a food service contract for.

This person was actually convicted of trafficking opioids in an actual court in 2022, so it's not a random Canadian plucked off the street.

That being said prisoners do still deserve basic human rights like healthcare and with people being arrested without due process now, just coming to the US shouldn't mean risking your life.
