What I kind of meant was that it feels like it should be criminal for a politician to essentially hand out public money to their donors and friends.

For some people it feels easier to give a 'soft' rejection, and 'let you down easy'. People also believe that a soft rejection may help to temper potential violent male responses to being rejected romantically.

It is misleading when taken literally, and needs to be understood in combination with other social cues. (Does this person show continuing effort to develop a friendship? Do they ever reach out first? Does the dynamic feel one-sided? Do they subsequently make more negative comments that express a disinterest in continuing the friendship or 'let you down' further?)

love large and properly formatted data files

You're thorough with a great attention to detail.

If someone thinks you're stalking them, that's a 100% full on red traffic light that they don't want to continue contact with you and you need to leave them alone. Simple as that. You don't get to debate or negotiate.

"Let's be friends," is a polite way of declining romantic interest. She is clearly not treating this as a friendly relationship as her comments about you indicate that she didn't want to continue contact with you.

Data privacy framework

🤣

Also feeds into the boomer narrative that their children exist to support them when they get old

Is that the palest white bread I've ever seen or did you somehow buy it with the crust already removed

Would love to know what they think a termination letter is.

I do keep a Windows drive just in case, had to use it once for an online exam.

Seems to me repainting the entire feature would be reasonable. It also appears they didn't clean up any of the dirt they left on the road around the repaved area.

Probably. I have also heard of resin dipping the print before you make the mold to fill in layer lines.
