I was actually just thinking if I would still have my same political leanings were I born wealthy. I don't know.
But I'd like to think that if I would become massively wealthy at some point, I'd hope I'd use that wealth for the betterment of everyone and wouldn't let greed overrule everything else. But as this is highly hypothetical, regardless of what American Exceptionalism says, I'll never get to test it.

I wouldnt say up. Better location. Just at the end of a long shitty breakup, I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel now. Downsizing but got my own place right by the beach. Should make for a good summer.
My dad is a business owner and we're middle class to upper middle class. It affected what I was exposed to for years but once I had the ability I knew I don't agree with him.

Do you know the oldest lie in America, senator? That power can be innocent.
Depends on how much time you have, I think. I can't put any time into sims these days for that reason, though Planet Coaster might get me to change my stance.
Ah, sorry bout that.
But now you get to enjoy a bachelor pad right by the beach, bwoy.

Yeyeye. Im pretty excited. It will take some getting used to the change but I think it will be a good time. Been in relationship limbo for too long now, time to move on. Went down to the beach there the other day and was like aww yeah I can get used to this.

Yeah, I was leaning toward I still would come to my own conclusions.
I've also thought about how I would feel about the struggles of minorities if I weren't also part of a marginalized group. If I would be one of those moderate fence sitters who pretends a problem doesn't exist. But I think my embracing of empathy would trump all of that.
I'll be the exception!
(Also, BvS quotes? In my FakeGAF? Aw hell nah.)

Tomb Raider if you want an action game, X-com if you want to tear your hair out on 95% chance to hit missing.

Sounds like the Shadowrun games too!
Well, I've only played Dragonfall (fantastic game, get into it) and I've missed shots at 95% before. kek
I grew up in a very similar area, there's a porsche and maserati dealer nearby. People in high school all got their eurotrips or whathaveyou for graduating.
I got the radiator fixed on my beater BMW so I could actually drive it. It was awesome.

I just got some money when I graduated.
It seems his thirst is real as the kids say.
So a dude just liked 25-30 pictures from my instagram in one sitting.
Interesting.

beater BMW
the car I drove in HS was a 1988 ford escort and I was actually afraid of it. It had so much slop in the steering it was hard to drive straight.
I got nothing, self financed my trip to Scotland. Of course I could have asked for some money from my unemployed mother or redirect it from the humble savings my grandma saved up for me, but I had already worked up my ass illegally by tutoring kids and saved up quite some cash.
Gurl my pics are almost the same pose in all of them which makes it somewhat funnier. He is kinda cute but thats a bit creepy
Enter the Gungeon is so fun. So much polish on it, it's great!
You can have your sentiment on brands but you can get good cars for cheap if you try. (Not implying only BMWs are good cars, but finding cheap used cars that are reliable and fun in general)
edit: Ahhh that's terrifying. Nothing more scary while driving than not having confidence that you're in control. Aquaplaning is similarly terrifying
We got it for maybe 2 grand? It was a 1986 635csi with an odometer busted at 386,000 miles.beater BMW

Still driving my first car after all these years and I'm perpetually afraid that the car will suddenly just cease.
Like me, it feels like the car is held together with cotton threads.

'99 Nissan Pulsar, been driving that thing for about....I think 7/8 years
Keep in mind that most people aren't actively hateful but unaware of the actual situations
I was more libertarianish for awhile because everyone I've ever met appeared to be kind and I assumed there was no reason to be concerned about sexism racism etc. Empathy didn't help me because I didn't have anything to empathize with.
I later figured it out since I constantly looked into those things to understand them and later it turned out I fit into a group that everyone hates too so obviously I very much changed my political views to match my moral views

Have you been doing regular maintenance on it and stuff?

I've tried to keep doing services to it regularly but it's about 6 months beyond when it should've been serviced and I still have to catch up with the things that needed to be fixed from last time.
Reason is purely $$$

It's amazing how removing bread from your diet for a few days makes you feel so much lighter. That stuff sits in you like a rock.
