No good deed goes unpunished.

Everybody’s problematical round here eventually.

I have no opinion on this, sorry. It’s a non sequitur.

Can you rephrase the question? It was so oblique I’m not sure what you’re asking.

So if Hillary wins she’ll owe favours to Wall Street, big oil and big pharma. If Bernie wins, he’ll owe favours to...the working poor.

This is so true. A vote for Hillary is a vote for the patriarchy, within which she is thoroughly entrenched. There’s a lot of complaints here about “Bernie Bros” and “I like Bernie but I despise his supporters”, but in fact the bulk of the vitriol and whining I see here is coming from the Hillary camp. I wish people…

Typical white guy? lol.

I am a woman and I read many such books when I was young. It never stopped me being an independant, self-actualised person. But in any case, I’m nor arguing it does no harm.

The story said he turned out the light. It’s possible he just reached in and flipped the switch if it was right by the door. Hard to say from the context.

I’m not comfortable with librarians, or even other people, deciding what is an isn’t “harmful”. It’s not about freedom of speech, it’s about freedom to choose your own lifestyle.
