I listened to a podcast about aging and statistics. Your highest survival chance is just when you hit puberty. After that your risk only keeps going up. There's no evolution benefits with age.

You have The clarity to recognize that you would need to step up if the situation arose.

I think you would do good

Some people just aren't interested in having kids. I've had countless great moments in my life I will always remember fondly. There isn't a single one of those moments I think would've been better if I had a kid lol. I don't think my life would be worse, just different.

Imagine thinking of all the money we need to spend on a farm through a single income household while also imagining we needed to spend it on other humans.

We're barely getting by as is. Now add a tiny human or two to that. Everyone is miserable and nothing gets done. Two Neurodivergent humans who barely function on a good day dealing with all the chaos of modern life and financial restrictions... "but think of the good moments".

I have that with my dog. He jumps up on me every day I come home from work.

Imagine thinking of bearing children into a less habitable world because of climate change, and its resulting ecological decline and social and economic strife.

I get what where you are coming from, I'd like to have children some day, but is it fair to have children in a clearly becoming bleak future? Never mind wars and economic recessions, because human society always recover from it. But climate change? It is a different beast than hunger or wars because it renders the entire planet inhospitable. Modern human society is not able to tackle or evolve from the rapid environmental changes caused by us.

Dudes blaming the patriarchy in the most patriarchal way imaginable.

You are, to some extent, to blame for his poverty,

Lol fucking what?

Wow. But I can almost guarantee he would unironically wax principled about the importance of personal responsibility.

Sense may be common, but self-awareness seems elusive to many.

A homeless man that pays for the blue twitter checkmark, mind you

for the past several decades, government rigged hiring & university enrollment in your favor, excluding & impoverishing heterosexual white men in particular.

tbf university specifically doesn't turn out to actually be financially rewarding today; lots of people have degrees but it doesn't really help them on the labor market.

and i even argue that DEI hiring does not happen so much because it's government mandated but because companies prefer the cheaper labor that they get from women, because they often do comparable labor but get lower wages, so the company saves some money. DEI is just an excuse the company brings forward to justify it in front of their male employees, so the management doesn't get hated for replacing the workforce with other, cheaper workforce. at least that's my guess if i had to make one.

Cheer up kid, it gets alot worse

You know.. I was going to write a joke that 'you can't fool me, you all only exist on my phone.'

Then I thought there probably will be AI-run forums running just for one user, and responding to their posts and comments with positivity and praise to stroke their egos, and I made myself sigh.

And now you have to read my deluded thoughts - which is dragging me back to reality, yep.. this is the internet.

Completely fair, I didn't consider that.

They don't know what jokes are?

I'm pretty new here personally and I feel way more comfortable in two weeks than I did in 12 years on Reddit.

Your stupid comment is not at any level worthy of “murdered by words”.

Your iq is lower than your shoe size if you thought you were being clever by making a dig at someone’s appearance. It has nothing to do with my feelings.

already has a lot of traffic

Unlike your penis. Which is quite obvious with the way you comment.

Stop blaming women for your own problems caused by your own misogynist mindset. You are your own worst enemy, not women.
