What do you think the voting age should be?

Jump

  • Between the ages of 25-55. Younger than that allowed by application only and they have to sit a test, to show they understand the basics of government.

    Over 55s should not be allowed to vote.

    • What business plan seemed so dumb to you but actually worked out?

    Jump

  • Linktree. It's just links on a page. How do you get people to pay a monthly subscription for that?

    • Could you do me a favour and make this post look like a Reddit post?

    Jump

  • Here's a story told entirely from my point of view, edited to make me look good. Am I the asshole?

    • What’s your “I can’t believe other people don’t do this” hack?

    Jump

  • I used to do this with a piece of thread

    • Rip

    Jump

  • I mean, they all died. Just as we will all die.

    • 'Yelling; shouting, intimidation': These men abused their partners. They're now fighting to be better

    Jump

  • I feel like too often people just say "stop domestic abuse", but without tackling the underlying causes.

    So I'm a big fan of programs like this that help abusers become better people.

    • Bollards installed in Melbourne CBD as tens of thousands anti-war protesters plan blockade

    Jump

  • I don't know if anti weapons people would also be anti bomb

    • What is an achievement in life that you're proud of?

    Jump

  • What did 4.0 mean? Is it 4 out of 5?

    • Who from history would you bring back to make them punished for the wrongs that they brought onto the world?

    Jump

  • Edmund Barton.

    • What are all the ethnic foods you've ever eaten?

    Jump

  • I live in the south, and we don't have many Mexican restaurants. We have more Asian restaurants. Thai, Vietnamese, Chinese. Also Ethiopian is delicious.

    • My rent doubled in less than a decade

    Jump

  • Thanks for explaining

    • My rent doubled in less than a decade

    Jump

  • But don't you also get your pay cheque monthly? You don't only get paid by your job once a year. So why is the income stated as yearly?

    • My rent doubled in less than a decade

    Jump

  • Stupid Americans down voting me 🤣

    • My rent doubled in less than a decade

    Jump

  • That's confusing. Why not use the same time scale? And what country quotes rent monthly? We do weekly here. Monthly rent makes no sense because months are different lengths.

    • My rent doubled in less than a decade

    Jump

  • So your average rent is still only 4% of your average income. You'd still have 48k left over after paying rent.

    • what addiction have you kicked? no matter how insignificant you feel it was

    Jump

  • It's mostly habit and having other good options available. Try to find 5 or more vegetarian meals you like and can cook easily. You don't want to feel like you're depriving yourself of something. More that you're choosing other delicious options.

    There's lots of great vegetarian food out there. Once you find it, you might prefer it over meat anyway.

    • what addiction have you kicked? no matter how insignificant you feel it was

    Jump

  • I quit meat. It's been 15 years now and I feel so much healthier for it.

    • How do you interact with children?

    Jump

  • Kids often don't focus on the past or the future. Just the now. Don't ask them what they did on the weekend, they won't remember. Ask them dumb things like what fruit they like.

    • What's the oldest thing in your downloads directory and how old is it?

    Jump

  • Same

    • How do I convince an AI apologist?

    Jump

  • It's not theft, because the artist still has their original art. It's copyright infringement, if anything.
