Short answer, yes.

Long answer, it's easy to say you will die for a cause while in a cushy position. Sometimes you will have to do things you don't agree with to provide for your loved ones. My current job allows me to provide without compromising my morals, but it would be dishonest of me to say I wouldn't if it didn't. As such, I don't blame the people who have.

My parents had a book about sex, pregnancy and relationships. The pictures were mostly cold anatomical drawn stuff. I think the riskiest picture was just naked hugging from the waist up. Since I was too young to read, I assume my parents never bothered to hide the book.

It had pictures showing the baby growing inside the womb. So I learned early on that babies come from women. It never occurred to me ask what triggered it, I think I just assumed women chose to do it or something. It wasn't until 4th grade that I had a proper class about reproduction at school and learned the man's involvement.

Sounds like an absolute win to me.

I wonder why you got downvoted. Your comment is inoffensive.

At 15 I already have everyone fully decked out with Bionics and at least recon armor. I don't know what else I can make my pawns do at that point besides needlessly adding wealth bloat.

Complaining about campers has been a thing since before streaming became popular.

Speaking anecdotally as both the complained and complainee, most people play superficially and aggressive. This makes them easy targets for strategies that are often considered "cheap" like camping or spamming. Rather than reflect and learn how to deal with those situations, its easier to deflect and blame the other for playing wrong.

The way it was explained to me, it's because of a lack of history.

Being a new country, they had effectively no history or culture, unlike the rest of the world. It lead to a desire to develop it's own identity which lead to elevating the founding fathers to a myth like status to match those of other countries.

It made sense to me, since there are myths involving demigods in different part of the world.

The only reason I haven't deleted it is that I have tons of saved bookmarks. Once I finish going over them I'll delete it.

I did delete all comments at least.
