    First, I’m glad they found the kid. No one deserves to be manipulated and taken like that.

    Second, dude, wtf? He’s in his 30s and thinks that this is something he should do? The kid is literally half his age, and he seems to think that they’re in any position for a genuine romantic relationship? Gross.

      The bigger question is what was the drive like back to Florida. That’s 14 hours and bathroom breaks

      Male role models are had to come by and harshly spoken of as highly as the “successful” or “richest” ones are. Just look at Tater Tot’s if you really, in 2024, need a concrete example.

      Blame it on some of the worlds addiction to insatiable consumption

        Not sure what this is really in reference to, but I defaulted to Napolean Dynamite.

          I’m assuming the human trafficking ‘influencer’ Andrew Tate. Flaunted as a male life advice guru, showed money around, bragged about having expensive cars. But is now awaiting a human trafficking charge, because surprise, he’s a horrible human, and that’s what is a ‘role model’ to some people.

            Ah that makes total sense. Yeah, I know who he is, I even booed him on a different post about the judgement regarding his property, but didn’t make the connection.
