Betwixed and between

  • i use bitwarden for my passkeys

  • Let us know your thoughts, I have the Kobo Libre colour.

    I'd like a 9-10" tablet with the oled backed screen

  • older folks with a Lineage OS phone ? wtf ?

    that said, im 61 and interested, so maybe you're right ? I don't use Whatsapp though

  • With that lived experience I'd love your thoughts on other apps, I use Inkscape and Scribus and Darktable now but looking around

  • lots of child care support in Nordic countries and still low birthrates.

    If women have a choice i.e they can self support (work) if needs be and not be gas lit, they'll mostly choose 0,1 or 2. That's not enough to grow a population. That and contraception that separates sex from birth.

    Look to Hungary, no incone taxes and all sorts of benefits and still a low birthrate. I can see them changing the law to punish women (financially) who don't but they're in the EU so they can say fuck u and move :)

    I'm a guy but it makes sense to me, why would a woman do years of study want to be mostly birthing kids every other year for a decade or more ? career, travel, saving and investing etc are much harder if you have a quiver full, let alone the impact on your body, so we're back to 0, 1 or 2 and a declining demographic.

    For every woman who decides on 0, you need another woman to decide to have 5 to basically stand still in terms of demographics, and the only ones doing that are religious nutters.

  • I remember when teen pregnancy was considered bad and a sign of a decaying morality across the country.

    before that it was commonplace though. I'm 61, my grandmother started having her kids at 16, she had 8, one of them my mother, the youngest of her kids. Many of her friends were similarly 15-19 having thier first kid. My mother was 19 with me, I was born when she turned 20. She had 3 kids, i have none, my sister none and my brother 2, so family dynamics have changed.

    This is Australia though, you can read books of some of the early convict ships coming over and they arrived with all the 13-16yr old girls pregnant, or having had their kid on board and being married etc

    You can see some of the effect in The Philippines, pregnant teen mothers are everywhere. Religious indoctrination in regards anti contraception doesn't stop teens fucking (and this in a nation with no divorce)

  • That probably involves a better understanding of their sexual habits.

    a job opportunity watching eels fucking ?

    i know Australia has a big eel export market where they were often harvested as wild caught pests from Dams.

  • Seriously, 99% of the population consists of awesome people that take care of one another.

    hmmmm

    Susan Sontag was asked what she had learned from the Holocaust, and she said that 10% of any population is cruel, no matter what, and that 10% is merciful, no matter what, and that the remaining 80% could be  moved in either direction” —Kurt Vonnegut

  • they. could have the immigrants make up the workforce to take up the slack of losing citizens to deaths in war... oh ... wait.

  • Australia does this, we're just the red heasded step.child and get zero international attnetion and moat Australian are fasciat and cool with all this.

    This was an Aussie famous one sone years ago

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cornelia_Rau

    Cornelia Rau is a German and Australian citizen who was unlawfully detained for a period of ten months in 2004 and 2005 as part of the Australian Government's mandatory detention program.

    Her detention became the subject of a government inquiry which was later expanded to investigate over 200 other cases of suspected unlawful detention by the Australian government's Department of Immigration and Multicultural and Indigenous Affairs (DIMIA).

    She disappeared from Manly Hospital on 17 March 2004, and, in February 2005, it was revealed that she had been unlawfully detained at Brisbane Women's Correctional Centre, a prison, and later at Baxter Detention Centre, after being classified as a suspected illegal immigrant or non-citizen by the Immigration Department when she refused to reveal her true identity.

  • And here we are

  • Beating someone to stop them killing tens/hundreds/thousands/millions is pretty easy moral math, no matter how many times it happens.

    Well, lets hooe we see Batman beating on the orange cheeto soon. An estimated 600,000 kids have died since the suspension of USAid

  • Have you seen them both in the.same room ? HA.. Checkmate!
