this exactly what you would imagine a person who wonders about the ‘virginity’ of actors while watching movies looks like.
image of person who spends time trying to determine if actors in moves are virgins.

pretty sure the ‘no tax on overtime’ ends up creating even more opportunities for cops to commit fraud against our communities.

i think it is important to talk about what this really means. i would like to see more posts that actually pushes this idea further.

for example, step one in not obeying in advance would be to NEVER EVER call the cops. EVER.

what else do we have to let go of to ‘not obey’?
