Once the birth rate drops enough, it won't matter how many incels there are, the economy crashes without kids.

Not all of em! According to the exit poll data, 44% of women voted for Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election, 54% voted for Harris. I think that's enough to make a difference. 🤷

I can't imagine having to make that decision.

Tis but a joke. She laughed when I suggested it, so I doubt it'll come to pass.

E: I might wear the costume though. That could be fun.

I know what my wife's Halloween costume is going to be next year. That's all I'm saying.

Well, I'm pretty sure you're right about South Korea. I don't see that as a reason not to try though. I can only hope that you're wrong about America. I appreciate the insight.

E: Even if it isn't super effective, every little bit helps.

It seems to have had the desired effect elsewhere. Also I'm not sure if it's required for women to be a monolithic group. This assumption is based on the gender divide in the current election. Regardless, Trump's policies are going to have a natural impact and decreasing birth rate just due to financial strain so if there are multiple factors that are impacting the numbers that's all the better right?

That's true, we tried. Thank you.

I was worried I wouldn't live to meet my grandkids because of health issues. Guess I don't have to worry about that anymore, it'll be climate now. Fuck.

Sorry. I feel ashamed to be here.

I think they're just advocating practical harm reduction. In a 2 party country without ranked choice voting (obv there's more to it than that.. not writing an essay here), you'll only ever have the 2 choices.

Simple solution. Unsubscribe from prime and only buy things when you've got enough in the cart for free shipping. That's all you need to do. Oh also sail the high seas.

So predictably devoted to fucking this country/world up.

Melby did not answer a question Monday about what happened that led to Harris’s and Walz’s names not being available initially on the ballot in the ESA system.

Error, or "error"?

The fact that they won't speak to root cause allows people to come to worst case conclusions. Perhaps rightly so.

I was at that talk. I've never been inspired by an in person speaker like that. Makes one want to unionize.

I'm shocked, shocked, I tell you!

It disappoints me that the level of regulatory capture prevents these companies from being held to account.

I've got one of those laptop chips and I feel exactly the same. I'm going to be watching my temps very closely. My trust is absolutely gone

1 year in and this job still seems just as cryptic and difficult. Very little documentation about the systems here and the imposter syndrome is feeling more like a reality than a pathology.

I'm about to look into different work.

I like this very much! I'll bring this up to my mayor next time I see him. Big thank.
