So it’s a total scam but companies are using it… why? Maybe because… it’s actually useful?

I feel like it’s a very vocal minority, but boy are they loud and obnoxious!

Then if it lands it’s just an O

He likes women (well, little girls) too, he’s bi. But we don’t want him

My partner has a prosthetic leg, so “to go to bed” would be a valid response

I’m in this picture and… uh… I have my adult adhd assessment this afternoon!

Hey all you haters, the Americans redefining liberal to mean not liberal is really fucking annoying. Stop it!
