I honestly wouldn't peg you as conservative, even with your "conservative" views. You sound like a reasonable moderate.

Young people are struggling with mental health and relationships, but there are small shifts in beliefs and behaviors that could help.

Gotta disagree here. They always sell the "quick fix", but the reality is that changing your beliefs about the world is no small thing.

This is a great point, until you want to ask your hot date to come home with you.

I would only consent to this for a significant amount of money. Like, at least $100k. I'd also set up specific rules about how the BJ will be for a set time limit, since I almost certainly won't cum, and I likely won't even get hard. Also, I might squirm in disgust the whole time.

I have nothing against gay people, and I support gay rights, etc. But I am straight, and the idea of sexual contact with another man creates a visceral sense of disgust in me. Sorry to the "everyone's a little bit bi" crowd. I'm not. Get over it.

This looks neat. I imagine it would feel weird after riding a fixed saddle all my life. My main concern would be durability - how well does this hold up after cycling 1000 miles? Or when it gets thrown down in the mud 100 times, or shoved in a car trunk 100 more? There are a lot of moving parts, so my best guess is that it would break relatively quickly.

Ooh, I'll beat your unpopularity here.

Cycling on the sidewalk in suburban areas is often safer than cycling on the road, and should not be discouraged.

Right, but this can be resolved with immigration.

Big shout out for enumerating questions. Makes it clear you need an answer for each one. Makes it easier to follow up if you need more info on a particular question. Makes it easier to pester the person with "hey, I need an answer to 2 by EOD or project deadlines will be significantly impacted" (copied to your PM).

People's poor reading comprehension is annoying. But the right move is to do everything you can to get the answers you need, creating a polite paper trail as you go. Usually the other person will get you the info you need sooner if you pester them enough, with the implied threat that you are building a case against them if the project is delayed. Because if they don't answer your questions in a timely fashion when you do everything possible to get the answers you need, it is their fault.
