  • Every year "secular pro-life" has a fairly large contingency at the March for Life in Washington DC.

    I am myself a pro-life Catholic but I also have found nonreligious on the right are much more prone to radical and violent ideas than religious folks on the right. For example I don't know anyone who loves Trump at my church. Some just accept him as being the highly flawed option we have in the moment whereas I know some crazy lovers of his that are absolutely without religion. My experience might or might not play out in the numbers but it is my experience.

  • I am on about 15 years on this current mattress. Seems to be doing just fine.

  • I carry gift cards to Subway for the homeless. Subway restaurants are almost everywhere, don't cost a lot, can be reasonably healthy, and most people like the food well enough.

  • I think kbin is less leftist then Lemmy and you get the same content. I moderate https://kbin.social/m/Catholic and although it is relatively quiet, we do not get a lot of harassment from the left.

  • My first thought was that maybe Russia was experiencing shortages due to the deteriorating economic situation in Russia but, reading the article, this feels more like a petty bureaucrat that's upset that the occupied people of Ukraine are not cooperating as well as he wishes, so he makes passive-aggressive "punishments" of the people. This may ultimately be good for the war effort, leading to more behind-the-lines resistance movements.

  • If you want Budgie, give Solus a try. It is an easy to maintain system, is rolling, stable, and independent.

  • Does this mean that I'll be able to get temporary containers on Firefox Android?

  • Parents are giving their kids phones without monitoring or managing their kids' use or access to the internet. A nontrivial number of boys wish to try out some of what they see after watching pornography and use even younger girls who are vulnerable to these situations. This creates situations where boys age 12 - 16 molest even younger girls, often but not always relatives.

    This is not unique to Malaysia. One of my friends is a trauma and rape therapist who has told me these situations are happening in every community and some of the girls do chose (choice doesn't seem like a good word, given their age) to carry the baby to full term. More often the girls patents do decide on an abortion due to a range of concerns from higher risks of such pregnancies to the social stigma that comes from these situations.

    Still many of the girls being molested in these situations are too young to become pregnant with some of the girls being infants or toddlers. This whole thing makes me very sad. We need to be more vigilant because so much of this abuse goes unreported or undiscovered.

  • If you read the study it referenced, it suggested 2- 3 years.

  • NASA predicted this after the explosion of an underwater volcano that added a lot of energy to the system.

  • A lot of farmable land is used to grow animal feed, especially cattle feed.

  • There is the very real problem that there won't be enough workers to support the retired non-workers.

  • This treatment looks to give us the ability to buy time. So many treatments just cannot act fast enough or are so weakening at higher doses that the person doesn't make it. I think we will see a lot of new treatment options that give us room for creativity when the first option fails. I've lost a lot of people I love to cancer in my life. I'm hopeful that those I love still living will be with us longer, so I can love and enjoy them more. At least until the next thing after cancer gets them (or me).

  • If these figures are accurate and I am reading the chart correctly, housing prices went from about 2.7x annual income to about 6.4x annual income. I feel like artificially low rates have had the effect of inflating house prices along with builders building houses that are too big and with too many features. Very few 3 bed, 1 bath houses without large garages. People who wanted these houses are forced to buy bigger houses because that's about all that's available.

  • You may be interested in the recovered journal of a Soviet infiltrator whose given mission was to establish such pedophile rings among other sabotage missions. These evils were planned and plotted from long ago. Certain places had problems already but this plot certainly made matters much, much worse.

  • You have to remember that the Pope is South American and to the political leaders of South America, especially those on the left, the US is evil and therefore Ukraine has the wrong friends.

    In this regard, the bias of Pope Francis against the United States has put him on the wrong side of history.

    He could have unified the Orthodox (minus Russia) with the Catholic Church but he has failed a huge failure. He could have increased support for Ukraine and end the war faster. He could have condemned the Russian Orthodox clergy that promote this evil was against the people of Ukraine. He has failed.

    Victory to Ukraine!

  • I'm confused about why RIF still works on Reddit. I thought Reddit killed 3rd party apps.

  • For everyone saying the wiki, you don't have to be an Arch user to love the wiki. I'm on Solus but use the Arch wiki frequently.

  • Lee Kuan Yew of Singapore is probably the dictionary definition of benevolent dictator.
