And student loans and healthcare and transportation
Who tf is upvoting this? It's highly unlikely this person has the acreage, time, equipment, and knowledge to grow all their own food.
Even if they did, it's not a real solution to the vast majority of people.
Or a bidet
So what's the narrative, I can't keep up.
Women are too picky and only want the top whatever percent of men? It seems like I'm always hearing how hard it is for men to date/get laid.
Sounds to me like if women end up single, it's probably on purpose.
I've def seen studies that single women are happier in general than married women.
These guys are always upset about women not working. Or upset that women working means they want a partner in life instead of relying on men for food and shelter.
Or they're upset at the possibility of women needing alimony after spending their entire marriage not working while catering to their man's every need
Or upset that they have to pay child support to the person with primary custody of said children (and probably doesn't have great career prospects after being a housewife).
They live in some delusional fantasy land where women live to serve men, but aren't at all concerned with their own well being when their men decide to ditch them.
They just want to self select out of any possibility of a relationship so they can blame women for them not getting any.
And tbf, women as a whole are better off without these guys trying to date them.
Religion/MAGA?
Religious folk aren't shy to admit they don't want people (usually their women) to become "too worldly". That's code for educated
Right? It's a super fun and very funny movie. Knee jerk reactions to a movie about Barbie tells you all you need to know about where the person gets all their opinions fed to them from
I think it's a cautionary tale against forcing women to have kids.
We need access to birth control, healthcare (including abortion), sex education, and quality education.
These horrible things cannot be hidden, just like war images shouldn't be hidden. This is reality and we can't turn a blind eye. We have to address real shit that happens in the real world to learn from it and get better. Or at least face the reality of the things we force people into.
Grocery shopping and food prep is always an option. Cheaper and healthier too.
If you have time to browse Lemmy, you got time to throw some shit in an air fryer/insta pot/slow cooker.
Jesus, it's like they want you to order online from a third party instead of paying them.
The argument I keep seeing against fast food being too expensive is "use the app! It's cheaper". Fuck that. I bought frozen junk food and an air fryer. McDonald's can keep their 15$ meals*
*Disclaimer that I don't actually know how much a meal is these days, but I know it's gone way up. Also, I do still buy from McD when I need to shit out a hangover. Sue me.
What are you seeing? I only see people happy with this, and one idiot making a comment about Loli
Wow, pretty happy I haven't been on Lemmy for a few weeks. Thanks for cracking down on that garbage
There's also a non zero amount of people that don't like being home. Whether it's the spouse or the kids they're avoiding, WFH makes it harder to avoid whatever is going on at home.
Just my gut feeling, but I'm gonna guess lots of c suite rich dudes would rather have a reason to be away from their wives and kids than being at home working. And there's no cute coworkers to creep on either if everyone is home!
I've had regular co-workers not leave the office early when everyone else was because they didn't want to "have to watch the kid(s) alone".
I didn't think about the "ambassador" angle. It probably is harder to get employees to drink the company koolaid when they're not physically in the office.
Dunno why you're getting downvoted, you're 100% correct.
Most people aren't on social media talking politics or thinking about any of this outside what they might overhear at church, from family/friends, on TV, shared on Facebook.
“No bad mugshots,” Dedmon added in another text. The other deputies understood what he meant: They had the green light to use “excessive force” on areas of a person’s body that would not be captured in a mugshot, prosecutors said.
I agree with the person I'm responding to. It's worse than you think, go read the article
