LeftTube (definitely covered by union-oriented content) does a fairly good job of propping up important messages and messengers. You might try uploading a few videos and sharing them with the likes of Hasan Piker, TYT, Big Joel, Shaun, and PhilosophyTube (Abigail Thorn). Getting your videos in front of the right eyes can expose them to an enormous audience, and most of these people do nothing but consume recommended content in one way or another.

It almost never happens overnight, but I think there's an importance to your story, and we need more union-centric content. Shoot me a link, and I'll be a day-one subscriber.

Oh, please. As if they bother to keep it a secret nowadays.

Just began the process of divorcing my wife of 4 years for having a sexual relationship with someone I've been friends with for over 20 years. With the marriage goes my sense of financial security, a cohesive circle of close friends, a stable place to live, an adorable pup, and pretty much the entirety of my life plans for the next five years. I'm living paycheck to paycheck, and only barely so.

But I've learned to rely on myself and my resolve a lot more, and the relationship I've begun to forge with my inner-self is something I wouldn't trade away for anything. And I've become a lot closer with the friends I've retained, or it feels like I have.

I feel guilty that you never heard back. 😕

And I think you and I are probably thinking on the same wavelength. I'm feeling better than I ever remember feeling, and I want to help others get out of it, too.

Autumn Leaves by Eva Cassidy has an almost spiritual importance to me, and I come back to it every year.

Eva had such a perfect voice.

You're just not smart enough to buy your footwear from the gardening department.

With the understanding that I don't have the knowledge to say that you're anything but absolutely right, I do think that the damage assessment would be tricky when taking mental health and social wellbeing into account.

Just thought it fitting to tell you that this comment of yours that I keep coming back to hit me harder than you might have anticipated. Thank you for sharing.

It was an attempt at self-deprecating humor lol

Not that hard, I hear that guy's a sissy.

I take it further in my belief that it was entirely accidental.
