But appearances are everything in Vancouver.

You hit the nail on the head with this one. Interesting that it closely followed the one about dumping people because they weren’t quite up to par for the Op. This has indeed become a very cold world, and I’m exceedingly tired of living in it. The last thing we need is more cynicism and more narcissism. Compassion and empathy is what is severely lacking now.

No money in that

It's all cool until you realize that wanting to look the opposite of beautiful comes from a large slice of self-hatred

I don't even flinch wearing my n95 out still

Why do you think there is no love and compassion in the world anymore ?
Are we all just that jaded from the realities of life that people stop trying cause that is the norm now and figure just one person can't make a difference against the machine or gog of society that we all spin around in feeling lost and utterly alone.
I know we all wish it could be different and life was fair and just and those higher up did the right things. Instead of instilling fear in the masses they instilled love and understanding in people.
What a wonderful world it could be :)

Well aren't you so pure, do you want a lollipop?

I must say that is a great confession! Be excellent to each other! The ultimate rebels! Cue air guitar and Steve Salas.
