No, the reduction is 54% for me to retire at 47 vs 55 aka ‘freedom 55’, because it is a reduction from 65. My full pensionable age is 58 by age+ years of service calculation. So 8 to 11 more years gets me a way better pension… so, yeah.

That is a much wider range at the cost of too many damn years.
Say you take 5 years and you go back in, could that add back into a pension?
Since education is “government work”, my mother-in-law followed to the midlife crisis of Disney, then when they came back, she “bought back” her retirement (had more money pulled to make up for the years she already worked but spent the retirement on, then worked the years she’d have left to get get full retirement: a wacky formula the accountants took care of).
I mean, if there’s a way back in, to increase that pension by just losing years right now, I’d be running out of there like a maniac.
But then, I hate people (crowds, jobs resulting from masses of people), so I’m all for running away myself. Lmao

Hrm? I wrote a short where “father” “daughter” “pseudo-cannibalism” happened. The reason those are in quotes is because it’s close, but not right. Thumbelina story, basically.

Yeah, everyone else has to catch up to us!
Gore doesn’t bother me to write. I don’t see it, so there’s no visual to go with the crunching of bones as tendons tear . Gore coupled with intimacy? Yeah, there’s where I’ll tap out, most often…not always, but still.

Now, that said, I also don’t get the appeal of gore, either.

I just think she’s not a very visual person by nature.
inability to visualize or ‘picture’ stuff in your head is aphantasia.

Inability vs lack of want is what I’m arguing.

I am so visual, I find it easier to draw a picture of my characters over describing them in words.

You CAN draw, you just aren’t good at it yet.
I could be labeled that way. I rarely “see” from words, and don’t remember faces well.

If I really struggle, I can get a visual, like for gore, it’s that weird short video for…I think the grudge? It’s the thing where the nail goes through the finger and I can’t pull up any of the rest of the video, mentally.

So, I can’t go full-on inability, but it’s damn close.
