Agree. Someone well into adulthood with a preference for dating people right at the border of adolescence is a massive red flag. It may be legal but flying as close to that line as society will allow suggests a more predatory nature.
Tuning in local radio stations while I'm driving through new places can be really cool. Also if you're a sports fan there might be a ballgame on - good way to entertain yourself for like 3 hours.
Amen to rest stops. Every 2 hours is a good rule of thumb, just to reset your focus if nothing else.
If you are musical or like music maybe find a local weekly jam or open mic. Play some tunes or just go and enjoy. Typically a very welcoming and open community and supportive scene, at least everywhere I've been.
Touch screens on fitness watches is the dumbest shit. I straight up can't use it while jogging and sweating. I just need a couple real buttons, but good luck finding that.
I think the point is that boomers will say kids these days are too sheltered, and also say unaccompanied kids today are a nuisance or a safety concern. This is a typical boomer double standard.

Apathy, cynicism, and distrust are also part of the right-wing propaganda. Opposition parties fight an uphill battle to engage more voters.
What do you want me to do? I'm fucking out there protesting. Shit I'll be at another rally today. I wish things were different but I'm not a coward and I'm doing what I can. I'm sorry.
