That’s interesting! Thanks for sharing :)

But the thing is that here in Europe, we are more relaxed than USians because we have government mandated vacation days. It’s even better when I get sick at the same time because I can catch a free ambulance ride to the hospital near the beach since there is no “out of network” medical care (whatever that means) here. I can then take mass transit from the hospital to the beach and make university-educated friends with everyone because tuition here is free. Because I didn’t die in a mass shooting when leaving the beach, I can order a reasonably-sized meal that doesn’t cause instant cardiovascular disease and not leave a tip because our servers are paid a living wage. I can’t imagine the horror of living in such an underdeveloped country as USA. I am so glad I am in the EU.

Huh didn’t know the fat over lean rule eh?!

I still don’t now it lol . What is it?

I don’t know why, but I am naturally drawn to this painting. To me, she seems to have emotionally checked out of reality by accepting terrible fate and is confused because she is in a position she has never experienced, so she is looking to someone or something for direction.

I think the shading on her face, eye, and hair is particularly impressive because it conveys her emotional disposition and is quite realistic. The artist must have had considerable experience with individuals going through severe hardships to be able to reproduce such a look.

Phew! Thanks for letting me know

Damn it. I just switched over from Google about a month ago. Worked on creating lots of aliases for my signs-in throughout the internet. I’m not leaving this easily, but now it’s something that I’m thinking about and will bounce if things get worse.
