Please enlighten me

I work in the finance industry and it's similar. We have to be certain we're talking to the right person as fraud is rampant. This is ridiculous.

In the not too distant past, my best friend found out her husband had an affair with a mid-teenager. He was careful not to break the consent age, but the whole thing is Yuk all round.

I called him a Paedophile. She argued he's not. Hebephile is the word - its still effing disgusting to have middle aged men training their sexual interests on people too young to be trusted to drink, to vote, etc.

Plus people commuting less = less pollution and less congestion.

Good for people, good for the planet, bad for profit for some.

As the parent to a 5 year old, I feel this sooooo much.

I'm having to change my "just-a-second", as she takes it literally - a second is counted. I now say just-a-minute. Frozen got it bang on when Anna says "just give us a minute " and you can hear Olaf quietly start counting to 60.

This is it.

I've had an awful experience recently with an ex-friend, caught having an "affair" with his 16yr old employee. He's mid 40s. Turns out, the only illegal part is that there's pictures. He can fuck girls still at school legally, but he can't send her or request any pictures. It's insane.

Another layer is that the age of consent rises 18, but ONLY if you're in a school, healthcare, care-taking, Religion or sports club setting. According to the law, being her Boss doesn't mean he's in a Position of Trust or a Position of Authority over her. Yet, he plainly is.

Luxembourg has a gay Prime Minister. While not Head of State because Lux still has a King, he is rather up there in terms of practicality.

Awww! Love their names!

I used to have 2 ferret boys, absolutely crazy adorable guys. Miss their antics and their endless energy.

Makes you wonder why the staff unionised in the first place. Sounds like they weren't being valued from the offset.

Replaced by whom?

I get that some people will step up into being Mods, but modding is hard and thankless work - I've done it a few times over the years.

There's always subs crying out for new Mods, so you'll end up scraping the barrel for Mods, then the quality will go down, people will get pissed off. With thousands of Subs suddenly needing modding, there's simply not enough volunteers to go around.

One of Reddits unsung resources was its army of Mods keeping the content of some quality (define that as you will). Reddit really is cutting its nose off right now.

Best news I've had all day.

Happy to see LJDawson rising from the Reddit shitshow.
