That's an interesting way of describing the situation. Another is Joel Davis encouraged others to rape the politician. Davis's defense is that he meant "rhetorical rape" in an academic sense.
It's absurd to suggest that he "encouraged others to rape the politician". There is absolutely no way that a reasonable person could perceive his message in such a way in that context.
To add a little such context, Davis frequently links controversial social media posts and encourages followers to post replies. These "brigades" are usually very successful, even turning the tide on the Prime Minister's posts.
The politician in question posted something controversial. Davis linked the post and encouraged followers to "rhetorically rape" her by replying. You're welcome to deem the wording distasteful, but his meaning is clear.
Fertilizer returns to the sea or is consumed by people and then returned to the sea. I think GP was worried about something that permanently locks phosphorus away.
There's a little convenience/liquor store at the first floor of my suburban apartment building. I mean true convenience store. Lots of shelves with snacks and liquor. Bright lighting. Zero ambience.
It also has a tiny bar. Like 3 feet long with three stools. One terrible television.
Yet there are always people in there hanging out. People are so desperate for a place to hang that is not their house that they will hang out in a convenience store bar.
The only thing you have to catch up on is that there is nothing to catch up on. Everyone is at some stage of growth. No one is ever done growing.
I am impressed by your surveys. You're being open and engaging the world. That's awesome. Now hearing your story, I'd be happy to engage you or even buy you a coffee to hear the results.
Yet if I saw you on the street with a sign, I would likely hustle past. I've lived too long in big cities, and I've developed a crusty shell. So if I pass you by and ignore you, I apologize. I am the one with the problem. :-)
