I usually fill these out because they ask about the workers, and good reviews help them keep their jobs. Same reason I always thumbs-up the Amazon driver. Customer service is a hard job and I want to help as much as I can.

Y'all assuming the guy with no shirt could have run faster at the end and chose not to. I've run a few marathons, and sometimes you have a little left at the end, and sometimes you don't. What he was doing is what a finishing sprint looks like for most non-elites.

screenshot from linked to essay that reads:
What is new is that, starting around 2015—in the wake of increased trans visibility in the media (sometimes called the “transgender tipping point”) and the Supreme Court’s decision in Obergefell legalizing same-sex marriage—social conservatives began shifting their efforts toward targeting trans people instead. The attacks have since grown into a highly coordinated and well–funded movement that churns out both anti-trans and broader anti-LGBTQ legislation at unprecedented levels. This is the real reason why Republicans have become obsessed with “fairness in women’s sports,” “biological sex,” “social contagion,” “restrooms,” “grooming,” and other soundbites that didn’t exist ten or fifteen years ago.
In other words, there hasn’t been an organic shift in public opinion on trans people but rather a massive astroturfing campaign against us.

...btw I link to evidence that the anti-trans backlash was a highly coordinated and well–funded (especially via right-wing orgs) movement in this essay: www.bostonreview.net/forum/how-no...

Not explicitly m/m but have you read The Gumshoe, the Witch, and the Virtual Corpse? I think you'll appreciate some of the themes.

The political history of the U.S. since the 1970s is basically that thing where a species' predator disappears and the species overpopulates and destroys the whole habitat. If centrists really wanted a "Normal" right, their top priority would be to bring back the left
