Oof this hits home. I grew up on a ranch and always kinda resented having to work my whole childhood while other kids got to screw around but… being in a dish pit every day… I think I feel better now. Stay strong fellow child laborer💪

Lol thank you! I feel so dumb

get to wear little vests too

Are people (or some other creatures) wearing little vests that say unemployed? Or maybe this is a LinkedIn #opentowork thing? Please tell me people aren’t walking around wearing #opentowork vests IRL

Or maybe this is a panhandling sign thing?

I don’t personally understand the desire to do this beyond “it’s the principle damnit” or doing illegal stuff but if you really want your phone to not be tracked then just use a verified faraday bag. Or make one yourself if you’re poor and then validate it yourself.

I’d wager thousands of years

Oh man, up until this comment, I followed along the whole time like “nope, nothing weird here at all.” You’re both adults and get lonely or bored from time to time. Hang out and see if maybe each other’s company helps with that. Not creepy at all.

But the thought of your daughter hanging out with her friend and all of a sudden saying “hey, you know what? You should date my dad! I’ll set you guys up”

…it’s just wildly unexpected for some reason 😂

Like, I don’t care who my mom dates but I am NOT gonna try and hook her up with one of my friends
