I’m not sure it would only apply to women. Never had much of a parental drive myself but I met several men, both friends and partners, who wanted children very much.

Maybe it’s different somehow, I wouldn’t know, but something’s definitely there.

You could try moving to Tidal or Qobuz, they treat their artists better and there are tools to transfer playlists

Was it this one?

Is this for real? It would be a delicious little nudget, but I don’t seem to find a way to check it

The Peter principle is a concept in management developed by Laurence J. Peter which observes that people in a hierarchy tend to rise to “a level of respective incompetence”: employees are promoted based on their success in previous jobs until they reach a level at which they are no longer competent, as skills in one job do not necessarily translate to another.

You’re hopeless and after this I’m done arguing with a wall.

You go learn science.

Being vaccinated doesn’t make you 100% safe, that’s a fact. Even if it did, when shit is left free to roam in a herd of unvaxed morons it can mutate.

Beside all that, I’m not hiding or running, I’m staying in my country or going places with mostly reasonable people roaming about.
It’s really truly that fucking simple.

You’ve already been answered plenty and I don’t think you’ve been listening anyway, but for what is worth I wasn’t advocating against vaccines, I’m on top of mine (covid included) and I’m always very vocally in favour.

I still avoid putting myself in the way of contagion when I can, and right now that includes staying out of the USA or any country that puts antivaxers in places of authority.

Vaccines usually aren’t a 100% shield. If enough people around you are unvaccinated, you may be at risk too.
Immunity comes in numbers.

That without counting potential mutations in such a favourable environment.
I’d stay out of the US for the foreseeable future.

Jesus. I didn’t downvote you, and I was referring to people not wanting the engine, Chrome and Chromium.

Vivaldi is Chrome based

I’m happy you found your way and again, don’t use labels if you don’t want to. Start building the world you wish for, by all means.

You keep missing or ignoring the point that your experience is yours alone, other people find comfort, identity, community and understanding in their labels and that’s their right.

Labels are a tool, how they are used depends on the person but they don’t intrinsically imply either discrimination or lack of compassion. Be compassionate, we agree that’s the way, but as far as I’m concerned that includes letting people be with their labels when they want to, as long as they’re not being dicks about it.

I think we agree on the main point of wanting a more inclusive society, one that hopefully doesn’t need labels, eventually, but it doesn’t look likely it will happen soon, and as long as we live in this one each of us copes the way we can.

Happy holidays friend

Everything is used to divide, someone autistic will behave in ways that “other” him regardless of labels, and people who want to hate are going to keep hating.

You don’t need them, don’t use them, but they absolutely are helpful for many people. We are nowhere near a society inclusive enough to make labels obsolete.

Beside, dealing with people’s attitude isn’t the only issue. Neurodivergent people will compare themselves to others on their own, and will struggle with their self image and self-esteem. A diagnosis will help with understanding themselves and finding better strategies much quicker.

I’m sorry, is that a brain fart or did you actually mean to say leftists oppose abortion?

It’s a Monty Phyton one

I don’t mean to intrude or push in any way, but your story sounds familiar and I found Running on empty to be an interesting read, if you ever feel inclined.

Good luck.

One of them is definitely Sync, don’t know about others

How are they choosing the bear? Both of those are actively hostile towards women, they don’t just “go their own way” to chill with the bear

They seem to have banned it

I agree for the most part, and I left the Catholic Church I grew up in for that and many other reasons.

However, isn’t Christ’s message supposed to be “you shall love your neighbour as yourself”? When it becomes “hurt your neighbour as much as you can” does it make sense to still call it Christianity?

Since it’s been that way basically from the beginning though, maybe well meaning Christian people should just step away and start over.

I agree, and your guess is as good as mine.
