You're starting out on a questionable statement there:

She absolutely is able to consent. That's what the OP means with 'puritanical', I guess. In the majority of countries worldwide the age of consent is 16; the US are one of the minority countries where it's 18.
You never asked a question, you posted the content of a terminal.
Hmm... Clockwork and fluorescent arms?
No clue tbh, I've kinda reached all my savings goals. Can buy a house outright when the time comes to settle down (not so easy, not even sure about the country let alone cityat this point), and still got enough to live a relaxed life. Guess I'll just top up the retirement fund.

I don't get why people need to look at their phone for 12 seconds, but hey.
Yeah, there's a reason the orange overlord is targeting universities now. He knows that election wins come from the uneducated and poor. They either truly don't know, or don't care enough since they have no investments worth mentioning.
Sync for reddit grossed over 2 million British pounds - and that's current account balances, I didn't check withdrawals over time. See for yourself, company filings for UK Ltd.'s are public.

So you might consider sync for Lemmy a passion project since it's not exactly cashing in on the same level, no doubt, but it's a far cry from a lone nerd trying to make ends meet.
