Pretty sure this is global.

And even if you do want kids, there are requirements that have to be met.

Stable income, high enough income, a home thats big enough… People can’t have kids if half their income instantly disappears into the wallet of their landlord every month and get reamed with the other half at places like grocery stores.

The Netherlands more or less does this, so i’m not sure this take is that extremist.

But the Netherlands also doesn’t have nearly as much of a car culture, with infrastructure that favors alternatives like public transport, cycling and walking. And puts large emphasis on separating these different kinds of commuters from each other as much as possible.

This is also why it’s relatively safe cycle around routinely without any kind of protective gear. Something that most (especially overseas) tourists I meet think is wild.

Diplomacy is fine, but the US wanting to change something in the UK that is neither a humanitarian issue or something that affects them at all, is like your car mechanic telling you what kind of furniture you’re allowed to have in your house if you want him to work on your car.

He could technically do it, but it’s also fucking absurd and you’d most definitely go to a different mechanic.

And also the correct thing, from any position of reason.

Trying to control the way other countries are run is fucking wild, the notion of which should never even be remotely entertained.

Leveraging people’s property to trash their privacy and serve them ads is really a good way to get me to avoid an entire brand for everything.

You’ve been here for year and blocked 264 people, I mean this in the nicest way possible, but ever consider the problem is not the people you block? I think i’ve legitimately blocked maybe 20 people in my whole entire online life (I’m almost 40), most of it spent on platforms like Reddit.

But then I have a high aversion for echo chambers and only block obvious trolls, mostly to keep them from blowing up my notifications. I feel it’s much better to just not give random strangers on the internet the power to actually affect your mood.

If America wants people to stop hating, maybe instead of trying to wipe it’s ass with the first amendment, it should stop cultivating hate with it’s actions.

Trump has the “excuse” of having to depend on El Salvador for this but there’s no way Bukele has no control over their prison system. This is the same guy that had the weight to “sanitize” El Salvador of criminals, i’m sure there’s nothing within El Salvador’s borders this guy can’t control.

In other words, this man will die in CECOT.

This guy is likely already dead, which would also be the only somewhat logical explanation as to why Nayib can’t return him.

For some reason people expect things from Bluesky but people forget Bluesky is basicly just new Twitter. There’s really no reason to expect “better” from this new platform.

My money is on this too. How card could it realisticly be to ring them up and have them send somebody back.

Someone is obviously stalling.

Teslas are notoriously expensive to repair after a collision, and insurance companies often salvage them because of this.

Yeah, if you have people replace whole battery packs over a broken coolant fitting, things blow up quick. Hooray for corporate greed.
