Validation need not come from anywhere outside yourself. Set your own goals. Do your best. Pat yourself on the back. People who 'recognize' you only do so superficially anyway. No one can truly know what you've done or where you've been.

I can't see where his argument was about lifetime earning potential. Seems to be just simply women with children make less money, which seems reasonable.

I also don't see anywhere he even implied that salary and lifetime earning potential were the same thing. And salary would be reflected in lifetime earning potential.

What is your position? I'm not even certain what the point of your disagreement is.

Forced? They're already making a shitload of money, they just want more.

There are real people forced into sex work, this isn't an example of that.

Could you help me understand where his argument is specious?

Distro-hopped a lot till I landed on Manjaro with XFCE desktop environment. Been daily driving it for about a month now without any complaints. There is an option to install with NVIDIA drivers as well.

Is it not true that different ethnicities have different features? There's nothing grossly exaggerated here. How should we draw people otherwise?

Get a few more hours of sleep

Yeah, what the hell do these people want? What would be an acceptable response?

They don't want to be better. They want validation that their mental health is not the result of their own actions.

Yeah I came to say this. Tried to kill myself as a teenager. Nothing helped my mental health more than getting my act together. Diet, sleep, exercise, and less toxic media. there is no hard line between mental health and physical self. Your whole being is in constant conversation.

It's literally not "Newt Grinch", it's Newton Gingrich. This is your first time hearing of him?

This happens when providing suggestions to anyone about anything when you're dealing with an insecure person.
