Oof that's fair

The purchasing power of people like your father has been reduced in this time frame. Check how much he could afford for that renovation vs how much you could afford now.

They are the expert for them in that case

Sure, but your parents were also on the tail end of single income detached housing being a thing.

Double income MDU barely works anymore. Concessions are made to save time or money.

NP I did not see that, I didn't need to comment.

If only somebody warned the world, to follow the money :/

... They are talking about their lived experience, boiling it down to an -ism is daft.

Yeah the use of the word is in relation to the edge cases, where it is not useful.

These discussions are around the edge cases. Use the accepted terms that experts use to refer to these people.

I like your moxy and positive attitude

The ones that complain about not holding puppet strings might shift the balance. The vocal ones speak for the lot, and they suck.

Have you heard old men speak about women? The amount of lamenting is completely absurd. Sad they can't do certain things anymore.

I think the crux of it will be, would she respect OP's refusal to have that kind of power over her, and would she expect some sort of reciprocal act for some MAD outcome.

I'd wonder where she got ideas like that and find out if it's an integral part of her life.

His joke is that fluoride can be used to make extremely dangerous substances

From the wiki on the one he mentioned:

This oxidizing power, surpassing that of oxygen, causes ClF3 to react vigorously with many other materials often thought of as incombustible and refractory. It ignites sand, asbestos, glass, and even ashes of substances that have already burned in oxygen.

I don't care if the fluoride source is toxic waste. It's not injected in any quantity to do anything but provide positive effects.

Are you going to criticize chemo therapy for being gasp RAdiOaCtiVE???? This is the same thing.

Ok, so for the poor people without care in those populations we say fuck them?

The mentally ill that don't do self care?

Fluoridation is providing a baseline. "Does not help much" is a useless statement if that includes everyone with the means for higher levels of care.

There are a bunch of policy decisions that are like this. Yes, it won't help you. Get over it, you aren't the whole city.

Yeah the problem with that is that the basic reason that they are like that is they are threatened. They have a need they are addressing with shooting down ideas.

Brian would do better if he addressed that need. I would bet if he started attributing his own expertise to this manager, and started saying things like "wow I've learned so much from you" his ideas would be accepted and credited to him. Brian's success was due to his manager, after all.

Tooths with the fur (with the fur)

This is too much

I don’t know.

You don't need to know. Statistically dental health increases when municipal water is fluoridated.

Can I be a jerk in retaliation?

You didn't watch the video apparently
