true story: my wife-to-be gave me this form to finish filling out, long before we started dating. I still have it in a drawer somewhere.

Normalize piecemeal relationship building!!

This is bad. Two wrongs don't make a right. Not to minimise the seriousness of , but sharing with the world intimate/sensitive data/media without the consent of the other party is reprehensible (too).

Useful heuristic for life: if you catch yourself expressing ideas similar to these, probabilistic chances are that you are wrong:
👉 “Music nowadays is rubbish.”
👉 “Young people today don't know how to have a good time.”

👉 “This generation will have it worse than my generation.”
