i believe that photo is from the house-sized torture chamber of capo di tutti i capi Dr. Giuseppe Muscato, ruthless godfather of the muscato syndicate. just out of frame are the infamous bagels.
Dave's poverty and his theft are two separate but equally important narcissist components. Dave doesn't steal because he's poor, he steals because he believe he's entitled to things. He's deliberately poor because it gives him what he thinks is an excuse for his behavior.
Leave the gun. Take the pain pills
A rib eye is clearly a luxury purchase and not an every day meal, but on its own its not a meal and there's no reusing it. No one is cooking a rib eye and spacing it out over three meals. Dave steals because in his mind he's owed what he's taking. His charges came from fraudulently running up a bill in a country club restaurant in his dad's name. He's not doing that to nourish himself. He's gorging on restaurant food to punish his parents.
Ah, my bad. I misread the verbiage and thought he had just gotten the cat. it made the image fit so well into his schizo narrative.
They only have some random worker standing around twirling a key and looking very bored, or using their phone any time I've made the pilgrimage to my nearest wommart. They'd not only need a worker, but someone who gave enough of a shit to check.
What the fuck is "radical vulnerability"? Is it a new gay term for something like "content warning" became "trigger warning" got made fun of too much after fags abused it? What are his tubular traumas or his bodacious brags? I fucking hate lefty speak.
At first I misread this as, "racial vulnerability" (as in, people of other races have soft healthy skin and so this wouldn't happen to a non-whitey, look at me being vulnerable about that).
Dave should just use that phrase as he Facebook header. A 40 year old unemployed manlet incel openly crying about his abusive elderly parents that won't give him gibs is truly, radical vulnerability.
And yet GUITAR is nowhere to be found.
I remember the phrase from a personal lolcow who never took off. 2016-ish (my math might be off), it was being pushed by platforms like Everyday Feminism, The Body is Not an Apology, etc. as some sort of reshaping vulnerability (i.e., messiness, oversharing, personality disorders, etc.) as empowering. A revolutionary act. So, turning narcissism into a political stance. I was following Sam Dylan Finch, who was really pushing it. As an example, she shared a story about watching the Disney version of The Hunchback of Notre Dame and was so triggered by the sufferings of Quasmido, she had a meltdown, and had to be comforted by her partner.
