They would actually be affected by these policies directly if they weren’t upper class, and I and other friends of theirs will absolutely be affected for a variety of reasons (public healthcare and anti-LGBTQ+ policies to name a few) and they still don’t seem to care. It feels like they’re so out of touch they don’t see the issue even though it will make a difference to the lives of the people around them. When you’re privileged, it can be difficult to see past the end of your own nose. (And I say that as someone with my own set of privileges.)
A friend of mine, who I consider quite progressive, has literally said similar things to your father. I think your post has actually shed some light on their behavior: they’re upper class (or their parents are). I was so confused after the 2024 election when they said everything would turn out all right in the end and it would all blow over, as if the changes the current regime is making haven’t set us back 50 years, as if people aren’t actively dying right now from Republican policies. Thank you for posting, I think it actually helped me understand why my friend said those things.
For chronically ill tea lovers (myself included), there are also a variety of options! Cut open the tea bag and pour into a strainer, buy a teapot with integrated strainer (they’re all over thrift stores if money is an issue), buy reusable tea bags and fill them on a free day, buy tea brands that use safe tea bags, or skip the strainer and enjoy your tea with the dregs in. I also have a twist open tea strainer which is easier on my hands than the ones with a spring in them. But if all else fails, continue to drink and enjoy whatever tea works for you!
According to their website, they sell an SDK to business partners and allow end users to make donations.
I love Abigail’s work and watched her video on this subject at least 3 times, as well as sharing it with others. I highly recommend it as a companion piece to this article: https://youtu.be/v1eWIshUzr8
This article is blatantly transphobic.
Agreed. We have three “large” grocery stores in town: a Safeway (Albertson’s), Grocery Outlet, and a local grocery store which, like yours, is extremely expensive. Our Safeway appeared on the list of divestitures and I think that would probably raise prices as well as change the staples we have available. It sounds like a bad situation all around.
As an asexual woman who loves badminton, can confirm. It’s definitely not a sport that can involve running around in tight clothing getting sweaty.
Not to mention a testimony from a man he was dating in Toronto.
Thank you for sharing. This made my day, particularly the note at the end. 🙂
