"You must move out at 18 or you're a loser." is a lie told by landlords in order to increase the demand for shitty, overpriced apartments. It's a lie told by capitalists to make sure as many people as possible are living paycheck to paycheck in order to reduce the number of people who are able and willing to help others.
In many societies, it's normal for multiple generations to live in the same house.
just had the weirdest interaction. this off-leash Yorkshire Terrier wobbled up to sniff my ankle, and then its owner said “the vet wanted to euthanize her”
and I was like “……oh”
and she said “4 years ago. she had a stroke, but I went to church and prayed to the Virgin Mary, and now she can walk again. but sometimes she drops, which is why I have this stroller”
and I was like “oh, okay.” I didn't know what to say after that, so I was just like "it's a cool dog" and kept walking
TIL: The Ogre Faced Spider’s eyes are more sensitive than both a cat’s and an owls, but every day at dawn the photosensitive portion of it’s eyes are destroyed by the sun, and the arachnid has to regrow this portion each and every evening.
