High fives you. And that last sentence made me nod very much. ;-)

Anti-vaxxers are the worst.

Well, I'm not a vegan and I'm also white. However, I don't see either as being problematic. I view myself as a complete failure to the human race, which does tend to be problematic.
I don't know enough about the public school system to judge it, however I do feel that parents have turned over about 80% of their child-rearing responsibilities to schools. I think people who want to learn, will, and those who don't, won't. I learn by reading. And reading. And reading some more.
I don't care a whit about making money. Money is tedious. Life would be so much more interesting without it. And all the judgments surrounding those who have it and those who don't.
I've always been a horny son of a gun. I was declared at one time by psychological testing to be ultra feminine. But now that my hormones have changed, I view sex quite differently. I see intimacy as being much sexier than orgasms. Hence, gender is starting to matter less and less to me.

Imposter syndrome? I tend to chafe at those words, but they seem to fit many of us part of the time ( ... )

My problem with veganism is the whole "holier than thou" attitude. The whole: I'm better, ie, healthier, more self-controlled, more ecologically aware, than you mentality of vegans. However, that goes for so many other things as well. Whatever happened to "live and let live" or "you do your thing and I'll do mine"? Everyone feels qualified to render judgment and tell everyone else how to live. I makes me want to tunnel underground and never emerge.

If it were more about health than animal cruelty and destroying this planet I wouldn't care. I cannot deal with vegans who are pseudoscientific fat shamers who act as if they were born woke and vegan. Idk, I think globalization has maybe destroyed the illusion that we have any actions that don't have some kind of negative effect on others. Not that I know what to do about it...
