They're the same picture. Good cop/bad cop.

Right, right, that's why they fail to stop supporting things voters detest.

NYPD set to hire 580 extra cops under Mayor Mamdani’s latest budget

Jump

That would be a slightly larger police force than under Mayor Eric Adams, when the number of officers hovered around 35,000 at its peak, according to city budget documents and NYPD press releases.

Well, it's not for everyone. I've had my feelings hurt when I just wanted to help too. You do what best fits for you.

I'm sorry that happened! Possibly he wanted to retain his independence as long as possible or sensed a threat (muggers offer "help" before mugging). It's always best to ask if you can be of assistance, and a simple, "Are you sure? It's no trouble," if declined is enough reassurance without being pushy. If the offer is declined a second time, a cheerful and sincere "Okay, have a great day/evening!" is an unakward way to take your leave.

I'm not sure how to volunteer online, unless you want to record audio books, you could upload to YT, or place a few free ads around to social media/local radio offering typing, proofreading, tech support, etc. But I have a feeling free tech support may consume more time than an hour.

It's good of you to want to offer your services. Thank you for that.

Assuming you're able, I second this. Elderly and infirm will be grateful for an hour of errands, meal prep, dish/laundry washing. Young, able may appreciate an hour of babysitting or reading to children.

Thank you so much. I have questions but they have to wait. I should be sleeping.

Nothing wrong with having fun. My complaint is people complaining about references that were in the wholesome original works. 😅

The article bemoans drug references in Alice In Wonderland , which has uh... Lots of drug references.

Idk about the caterpillar smoking hookah though, it's plausible deniability, since afaik, tobacco use is only permitted in hookah, under Islamic law. Maybe @ArgumentativeMonotheist@lemmy.world can confirm or deny, or whether it's sect-specific?
