Don't let anyone convince you that your empathy is a weakness.

Hey Canada, I was sickened to see poppies being sold on Amazon. No way are they doing this in a charitable way!
Please buy at the poppy shop or direct retailers where 100% of the money goes to the Legion.

A bit of LORE about this child is once, in elementary school, his bus simply did not come. The school called me to say it was late, else I would have gone to get him, not realizing the bus was going to be 3HRS LATE

my child, sticking a fry in his mouth: in my day we knew how to live in the moment you know

When people learn with ChatGPT instead of following their own searches, they end up knowing less, caring less, and producing worse advice, even when the facts are the same.
