Certified shoulderoforion? Certified pedophile

I completely agree. The most common “complaint” from guests in my old home was that the lights weren’t turning on. They had turned it down to 0 by holding the button so clicking it was toggling between OFF and 0. Not really a smart home issue but it made me realize that the new system I’m speccing out needs to be invisible - it’s a priority that things need to work “traditionally”

I will have a few NSPanels for the bonus controls (HVAC and audio mostly) but the lights need to make sense to a layman - even without enabling a guest mode.

If your expensive thing benefits society then there’s a good chance you can find a government subsidy for it. If your expensive thing is for leisure, your analogy is silly.

Those are two separate problems. If we weren’t forced to work 40 hours a week to survive, parents wouldn’t have to take off so much time. If we lived in a more communal society that raises children together, the same would be true.

Look at what’s happening in countries where the birth rate is too low - the fear of depopulation is not unfounded.

If you mean people like that dork couple advocating for white people have tons of kids, yeah I’m totally with you.

The only reasonable campaign is Responsible Natalism.

Everyone benefits from it. We need people to have kids so those kids can grow into adults. If I live to 80, I sure as hell don’t want my doctor to be 80, too.

Governments subsidizes parenthood because it’s expensive as fuck. I’m fine with that. I don’t feel like I should be compensated for not having to raise a child…the reward is my free time and money.

Having a kid is fine. Having two kids is also fine. I only have a problem with people pumping out a dozen they can’t afford to raise…and even then, it’s not because my tax dollars will pay for them - it’s because those kids aren’t being given a good life.

I have never wanted kids myself but there’s something particularly insufferable about avid anti-natalists like OP

Leave him alone. If he put them in a drawer, he’d forget about it

The strangers on the internet hate that I speak TRUTH! I’m being oppressed!

Pre-victimizing yourself is one of the most annoying tropes in internet posting

It’s a made-up thing for this post
