 Title text: It's not going to break the fan, bouncing a rubber ball off the wall isn't going to dent it, and the roof can hold me just fine. You LIED! |
This whole quality vs. value thing is prtety disheartening. My modeling pay rates back in 2001, back when I wasn't as good of a model but was better than average for the 3rd tier industry, I was earning 90% more than what I earn now. Now because of market saturation and the horrible economy, I had to work my buns off to reach that 10% of my former income, being an excellent 3rd tier model. It's disheartening, but I am very lucky to gotten out of the trap of equating work with identity. Opting instead to value my work for pleasure it brings and education it provides has been incredibly liberating even if I am still paying off debt that could've been easily taken care of had the monetary value of my work not collapsed.Then again, you sometimes need things needs to collapse, in order to find ways to build them in more effective ways the next time around.

Narrator: Best thing about having my own apartment: Holding fans in place so they twitch helplessly and make that clicking sound without my mom yelling at me.

Kids need to realize that most parents are stupid. Anyone who takes issue with that has to address the fact that most human beings are stupid, and also become parents. And a lot of that stupidity is learned, passed on from the stupid parents, teachers, et cetera. Not only are most of the old warnings passed down wrong (you can put shoes on the couch without hurting or dirtying it significantly) but so are most of the new ones (the little bit of real science on the topic says that limiting "screen time" does more harm than good" — Kazvorpal (talk) 01:54, 21 September 2019 (UTC)
