For me, outrage at tearing an image implies the subject is beyond reproach and that concept itself is extremely concerning / problematic.

Any individual possessing more than a lifetime's worth of money. Like after you have $30 million the rest goes into a bucket for everyone else to use. You can re-up from the bucket once you drop below mmmm a 5 year amount of money say $2 million. You can still amass bazillions of dollars, just not kajillions.
Geometric frames of the same size and thickness to make a 3 tiered windchime from upcycled glass!
Goddammit Becky was a good bearperson. And now I have the Tailspin theme song stuck in my head so thank you x2.
Look up "Becky pumpkin spice flannel" and go to images (seriously I did this in DDG). No shade, as I like these things AND somehow managed to find Lemmy gasp, but those search terms will show you what is being referenced.
Same! My longest endeavor at the moment is getting my orchid to bloom prolifically (3 years), drying the blooms so they maintain their color (2 years) dipping them in epoxy so I 3D eternal blossoms and now I have 12 beautiful hardened orchid flowers I am figuring out what to do with. My husband has the same interest but uses more tech. We figured out how to print and assemble an impossible table to hold my miniature cactus. We both love tinkering for the joy of creatively problem solving.
I hope we can all agree that media, like drugs, exists on a spectrum of less harmful (books / weed) to very harmful (torture porn / bath salts). As time passes and more things are added to our lists we should no longer generalize and say everything in our once very small category is all good or all bad.
Fair point. I was thinking about an in home aid, which my partner did for 7+ years with developmentally impaired adults. It was rarely dangerous and the employees were prepared for each unique client, which they could spend years with if they chose to stay. The lack of professional training is not ideal nor fair to either party, but neither this is world we live in and those folks need aids who care. If you want to mostly hang out with folks and make a meaningful impact this would be a way to do that.
Everything except world-seer can be done as an at home aid for the elderly or folks with developmental differences. Pay is shit and you may have to do personal care things, but you also mostly hang out with generally nice or at least docile folks. But then there also can be random anger and poop. Scarily enough you usually need little to no qualifications for this work.
If it's available where you are PlutoTV is free and has a Star Trek channel. You don't get to pick the shows and it's only original and tng, but you can leave it on for days with almost as much Star Trek as the average fan could want...
