I usually aim for the nearest dollar around 30%.
I’m a defense contractor and none of the “work” I have ever done in my life has done any human any good. I think it’s important to use my nonsense salary to pay the people who actually add value to society.
You describe the ex friend as pressuring you to dump you (in the past) to dump your (at the time) bf and date him instead. This is a person who doesn’t respect your agency or value your happiness.
It’s possible he could be a pleasant experience for a little while, but it wouldn’t last. He wants to be with you not because he believes he can make you happy–that is the foundation of a worthwhile relationship.
Rather, he wants to be with you because he has fantasies about the person he imagines you are. He doesn’t care about who you are, if he did he would care about the relationship you were in and would care about your choice to be in it. He “cares” about who he imagines you are, his fantasy girl who wants him enough to leave her partner. If he were to find out you’re a person, a human person who doesn’t idolize him, the target of his fantasies would change.
The following is a representation of conservative thought:
Because it defies belief! Everyone knows any real superhero team would have NO women, women couldn’t be superheroes! Movies only force us to have women there because of Woke.

I’ve never worried about it too much.
Usually, I clean my glasses with a microfiber cloth which I’ll occasionally toss in the general laundry.
Sometimes I’ll clean my glasses with soap and water using just my fingers, then dry it with just a handy bathroom towel and then my microfiber cloth.
This reads very well!
I think starting the statement as a request for help in the analysis really works.
I just fuckin finished All You Need Is Kill, that was a neat story!
In a Groundhog day loop, I can tell you that suicide would become so much more casual…
OP: “god, it’s hard being a paraplegic and trying to run…”
You: “guys, don’t listen to this asshole, being a paraplegic means you can’t run. If this person were actually NPD, it would be an extremely positive sign for them to seek to improve themselves and since we can see this person trying to improve themselves, they are clearly lying and manipulative. Classic NPD.”
Log off and touch grass. You can come back when the stench of your self righteous diarrhea of the mouth fades.
While your argument is sound, a server can’t feed their children or care for disabled parents with sound arguments and principled stances.
