  • So what's the narrative, I can't keep up.

    Women are too picky and only want the top whatever percent of men? It seems like I'm always hearing how hard it is for men to date/get laid.

    Sounds to me like if women end up single, it's probably on purpose.

    I've def seen studies that single women are happier in general than married women.

  • These guys are always upset about women not working. Or upset that women working means they want a partner in life instead of relying on men for food and shelter.

    Or they're upset at the possibility of women needing alimony after spending their entire marriage not working while catering to their man's every need

    Or upset that they have to pay child support to the person with primary custody of said children (and probably doesn't have great career prospects after being a housewife).

    They live in some delusional fantasy land where women live to serve men, but aren't at all concerned with their own well being when their men decide to ditch them.

  • I think it's a cautionary tale against forcing women to have kids.

    We need access to birth control, healthcare (including abortion), sex education, and quality education.

    These horrible things cannot be hidden, just like war images shouldn't be hidden. This is reality and we can't turn a blind eye. We have to address real shit that happens in the real world to learn from it and get better. Or at least face the reality of the things we force people into.

  • The argument I keep seeing against fast food being too expensive is "use the app! It's cheaper". Fuck that. I bought frozen junk food and an air fryer. McDonald's can keep their 15$ meals*

    *Disclaimer that I don't actually know how much a meal is these days, but I know it's gone way up. Also, I do still buy from McD when I need to shit out a hangover. Sue me.

  • Dunno why you're getting downvoted, you're 100% correct.

    Most people aren't on social media talking politics or thinking about any of this outside what they might overhear at church, from family/friends, on TV, shared on Facebook.

  • “No bad mugshots,” Dedmon added in another text. The other deputies understood what he meant: They had the green light to use “excessive force” on areas of a person’s body that would not be captured in a mugshot, prosecutors said.

    I agree with the person I'm responding to. It's worse than you think, go read the article

  • What if we were finally able to get insurance companies out of healthcare in the US? Thousands would lose their jobs, but millions would suddenly be able to get care. So much money would be saved, but so many people would suddenly be out of work.

    I don't know about you, but I hate paying several hundred dollars a month (and 100s or 1000s if I actually get care) to prop up a whole ass middleman between me and my care.

    Anyway, my point is we can't keep old systems only for the sake of preserving jobs. The guy you're replying to is short sighted and relying too heavily on a language imitation program, but he's essentially right about not keeping jobs just because.
