I feel like religion/conservatism plays a role in this mindset. There's a lot of pride in self-sacrifice and at least appearing "strong" in the face of adversity even if it's regarding your health. Not that I agree with it at all. I'm all for unlimited such days and self-care.

To explain in case you are serious, IMO I think they're meaning you can obviously articulate the point to which you came from where you originated class-wise, and explain in detail at that.
But the "sucker" aspect is to point out how, even if we can find a way, the "game" itself seems to lead many to devolve into an existential thought-process of 'what is the point,' when it's much harder now-a-days to get to ANY point of success like a couple of previous generations were able to (those in their 50s+). If a person still believes that "winning" at the game is still important, then they already lost. Or they're just a bit bitter and using a mocking tone... hard to interpret tone in text.
I know you're joking, but for those who don't understand sarcasm it's more akin to a rebirth name when changing it after religious epiphanies or extreme cases of cuttingoff communication from one's origin family/tribe.
You aren't doing it right if you end up paying $200 during a sale. But you do you, boo. Granted, I know I end up collecting these games like pogs, so I can't say much.
Your last line about hiding reminds me of a peaceful species, the Nox, from Stargate SG-1, who had many abilities one of which was to become invisible and shield their community from detection. But funnily enough, they were so powerful and advanced they may has well have been treated like gods by anyone else.
I don't know about OP, but when I put rope on my cat-tree's soft-fabric column I just wound it around the column (cylinder, don't know if it would work as well on a squarer support) as tightly as I could and safety pinned the bottom end to the 2nd to last row. The tight coil encourages friction and prevents slippage when he scratches it. The rope hasn't moved, aside from when I rotate it for a fresher side, since I placed it over 2 years ago.
Here is just one of the many videos I could find describing the difference between physical and chemical sunscreens. In short, both, to an extent the physical kind included, absorb and transform it into heat. Consumers can get chemical kinds that don't leave a white cast, offer varying levels of protection, dry fairly quickly, and are easy to apply under makeup if that's a concern. I know because I've used a couple brands with these things in mind and have loved them for years.
Just for safety's sake, I would advise more for a diffuser with or without a light for aromatherapy. Lit candles unattended are notorious for fire-related accidents, and diffusers can act as a mini humidifier for some. But that's just imo.
Yes, outside of Las Vegas, NV and The French Quarter, LA (other places noted below in comments, apparently). ~~I don't know any place that allows it, but I could be wrong.~~ I think it harkens back to the days of Prohibition with dry counties. Someone can correct me, as my history recollection isn't great. I'm guessing it's not much of a problem in the UK, or wherever you are located?
EDIT: Added other places others listed
I think that's because the descriptors come after the noun in reporting. Similar to how documentation is done for other professions, like healthcare. If it's out of the context of reporting, or other situations listed in the site below, it sounds grammatically strange or rude.

Maybe it's too early in the morning, but can you explain what you mean by the latter point? I'm under the impression trans treatment is provided for individuals seeking gender affirming care, with parent agreement if the individual is a minor. Your statement sounds like only the parent is consenting...
EDIT: Thanks, EatATaco. So my confusion lies in the equating puberty to hormone therapy. Similar, but not the same.

Back when I was using reddit, I found Uplifting News to be a helpful source of positive information. Some of it can be reminders of our boring dystopia, like students helping another by starting a laundry program at the school, but it's something. Here is the lemmy version.
