Hypersexuality that primarily exists in one gender is a massive problem for everyone. And I know there are hypersexual women who are in relationships with men with lower libidos (know one personally) - maybe they have a house or children or other emotional/financial anchor.
But yeah moderation sounds like a nightmare.
The difference between the US and other countries is that there's more financial incentive to having political control in the US. Companies here have way too much freedom to exploit under the current system and a lot of money they can invest in keeping it that way. Whether that means bribing justices or building platforms for Ben Shapiros or making big donations to campaigns.
There's a way out for the US I think. We need to get people in office whose goal is to remove the incentives. Take money out of politics (no more donations, lobbying). Laws should be decided based on merit and debate alone, and if it's not near unanimous in the courts it should be a citizen vote.
I'm sure in America there would be a massive power struggle over which party would have majority control over the judicial review board. Agree with term limits though.
My personal health has declined to the point where I really need to start taking care of it. Throughout the entire project, we haven't shared it with you, but I've been in and out of the doctor's office.'
Black explained how he also suffered from two autoimmune diseases which caused 'chronic fatigue' and another that attacked his joints.
Yeah, I once had a job working 60-70 hours a week. I ate terrible fast carbs for energy and slept 3-5 hours a night. Eventually I developed an autoimmune/CFS-like illness because I was ignoring my body's needs.
I think about the less fortunate who have to live this way under stress, all the time. The people who don't have the option to just "opt out of the experiment".
I'm admiring the ASCII art - great usage of different characters to smoothe out the outline of the text
We should've been taxing homes or land that people own but are not their primary residence, from the start.
It would be super easy to implement, and flexible - if housing prices are too high for 75% of the population, you raise those taxes little by little and the problem eventually sorts itself out. If it's no longer a problem, you reduce the taxes.
Probably, but could just as well be anxious attachment since we don't have the whole story. I'm on the anxious side and this happens a lot if the other doesn't show enough interest or is closed off in conversation.
I think there's a line somewhere and for me the line is whether the job is suitable for children. Like, doing chores around the house or on your grandparents' farm. Paper route riding a bike. I worked summers at a carnival, and at a pool when I was a bit older. Low physical labor, low responsibility, low customer interaction, family friendly environments. You're right it should never interfere with education.
If I saw a kid at the register of a fast food place or a store, I would turn around immediately and never return. Just leaves a bad taste in one's mouth.
Absolutely, have that conversation at least. Just tell them how uncomfortable you feel and if you can find a compromise. My wife and I got married in a courthouse for less than $50 and we still think it's the best decision we ever made. Maybe do a road trip tour where you see small groups of people/family and celebrate afterwards.
Yeah, just think - we could not only protect more lives, we could be having doctors suit better purposes if we started treating guns like, y'know, abortion in Texas. A bit depressing.
Malcolm Gladwell's podcast series on guns sheds some light on the phenomenon: despite the increase in guns and gun violence, doctors in the U.S. have become increasingly specialized in saving gunshot victims, which essentially turns a homicide into an assault (and police don't categorize gun violence separately from assault). There's also some progress being made to build more trauma centers closer to high risk areas of the U.S., which has been a big problem in more violent cities.
It honestly doesn't matter what they choose to say because nobody will believe them anyway. And not that this will persuade voters in the near future, but maybe they should try writing contraception rights into the constitution. That would at least be a good start.
Damn this really is a boring dystopia
As fast as my grandpa can type!
He looks like a less jolly whoville character
What do ya have against podcasting? It's educational, informative, it's free speech. I learn so much from them.
