That's me on the left with my sister. The cat was called Thomas. Any guesses as to the 'pc' ?

US newspaper headlines.

"Polilitician lies, world ignores, carries on."

I get the idea is to abbreviate to fit as much in, but it hurts my mind every time! There has to be some retention of language!

MDY is just plain nuts, but has to be DMY for me, increasing length of time, left to right as that's the direction of reading (plus what I was taught!).

Living standards have improved for many, but at the expense of others through exploitation. Like you say, an age old story. We're just incredibly lucky to catch a period in the history of mankind where the improvements have benefitted more than just the rich/elite.

Success in business (profit) requires exploitation, which requires few or very select morals to reach the very top. Those people you describe sound a perfect fit!

But then you'd have to fight yourself for that last bite! Oh the paradox begins, who was it that took the last bite then?!

She did knock off her arch enemy using voodoo, marry a russian hitman and be the first woman on Mars, pretty badass that!

It's definitely tough when you get criticised just for chilling out. My advice is to try and not be offended by those comments unless they come from people close or important to you. Ask yourself: why does their opinion matter/what value does it actually have? Is it jyst a throwaway comment from a e.g. stranger or friend of a friend of a friend. You do not need other's opinions to validate yourself, so long as you're not causing harm to anyone else, keep doing what you're doing because it's good for you and leave the busibodies to their ignorant opinion and to waste only their time and effort on it, not yours.

Ps you share my broad approach of treating others well if they treat me well. Thumbs up for that!
