and like you can pay a lady 10 dollars in cash to do your nails professionally
but you really cannot scrimp, at least not anymore (maybe decades ago you could) to buy yourself a house or to invest in stocks or other things that guarantee financial protection
poor people are liquid- thats why they may have material goods including nice cell phones but they broke ass will always be broke
hell, even banks and financiers EXPLOIT the liquidity of poor people; cash advance places in the hood and the proven empirical facts that cash deposits from banks in low-income neighborhood go towards major investments and are used as liquid assets by big businesses
keeping poor people in cash and banks in poor neighborhoods are major transfers of wealth in this economy
so please spare me your policing of some lady who decided to get some shoes

Reminder that it’s ok if you don’t know exactly what kind of attraction you’re feeling. I’ve noticed within the ace and aro communities we like to split attraction up into neat categories of aesthetic/sexual/romantic/sensual/etc. But feelings are WEIRD and nebulous and fluid and sometimes impossible to define clearly. And that’s ok.
