the values I believe in and support are NOT things I was taught as a child ( as so many proclaim ) but things I learned from being a part of my community and a part of society growing up...
"learned" values, not "taught" values, so to speak ( with rare exception )


some of these include ( obviously? ) :

* respect and honour...

yes, we get it - they sell edible thc locally now... the fact that you're so excited about it at work & around the apt complex I should remind you that does NOT make it legal at work nor in the complex where you signed no-drug-use contracts and can be fired/evicted for it...

yesterday was a fun trip and great time meeting new people - so I'm relaxing and taking it slow so far this morning ( me, taking it slow? * laughs * ) - it's only the 4th day of 6 off for today's 'Big L' after all :) :D

Glad you're having a good time 😎

got a good walk in before the world awoke this morning... just a day away from the 'Big L' ( or Big Half-C, if you prefer ;) )
3rd day of the 6 I took off for this 'b'day vacation' - haven't done a lot, just relaxed and walked and... yeah, that's about it :D

but it's been enjoyable - saw a few people here...

if you have to use the excuse "the toppings make the burger," then stop promoting yourselves as 'best burgers' and say 'best toppings' instead - if I wanted a salad and sauce with a side of meat, that's what i'd ask for... no, I wanted a tasty burger, not a 'meh' burger, if that

agreed! 🤗

if we're strangers, yes, I may say something respectfully relating to your physical sex ( darlin', sir, etc ) - if it bothers you, then calmly & respectfully say your name... or just smile and nod. if we ever meet & converse again, then you can bring up your social sexuality...
...if you respond with hostility or absurd irrationality, then I will respond in kind...
