I think this is a trick question. I think that as long as you still have some degree of self-awareness to worry *if* you might be too slutty, then you are unlikely to actually be too slutty.

Yeah well "we" should not ever have let Fox News *exist* and keep pouring poisonous misrepresentations of fact into people's minds for over 20 yrs.
Good thing we stopped that. Oh wait-- we didn't?
Oh well in that case, much like global warming, you can expect things to keep getting worse.

Trumpβs tariffs are the highest in nearly 100 years. And the promise of a manufacturing boom is just a hope and a prayer when profitability is tanking.
