I think Miaa is not talking about the literal rights they fought for, but largely a commentary on women collectively valuing financial independence from being a couple over more traditional couple based partnership.

I’ve been watching the argument unfold on the traditionalist side but they aren’t great at articulating what they are trying to say. So it always looks like rage inducing over simplification.

On the female TikTok side of the Internet, there’s a lot of sentiment from women expressing disdain for the idea of going 50-50 with a man, and a lot of preference for men that out earn them. That’s inconsistent from a financial independence mindset.

Then you have the women like Miaa who were like, housewife is easier than ever with the technological innovations you already mentioned. ‘Why not just be a homemaker if guys appreciate that and are willing to take care of you?’

Then the red pill guys are another party in the conversation, and they are saying things like, what women say they want and their actions don’t seem to be aligning and a lot of them are either done dating or at minimum have no intention of long term commitment. "Women say equality but not when the check comes. They want men to be open with their emotions but it gives them ‘the ick’. Men shouldn’t approach women in public because it’s creepy, but now the internet is flooded with women asking where men went and why they are being so effeminate. " That’s the kind of thinking I’m seeing in those circles.

It’s a big mess! Do I have a fix? Nope, just commenting on the forest fire from my vantage point. I’m just thankful I’m not in the dating market.

Hopefully it’s just whining from the vocal minorites that make all this content, and the majority of people are still balanced people that aren’t aspiring content creators and are basically happily living their lives so we don’t hear from them. Please, confirmation bias, be something good for a change. Be the fog obscuring the true good. 🤞

“why would you do that?!”

“… I had a duty of care.”

All of those things are subjective experiences I have not experienced. Because ventilation, cooking frequency, and myriad other factors complicate the experience.

So go ahead and get on your high horse and whine about pedantry.

Period. Exclamation! Question mark?

If you think that air quality is a built in metric to every conversation about cooking, then I think it’s you who has unrealistic expectations.

I mean I have a naturally broader systemic view than most people and I know that just because you haven’t folded the concept of cooking into my view of a Unified Field Theory encompassing all of existence doesn’t make me smart and you dumb.

This was not, and is still is not, common knowledge. We definitely do need to spread the word on that. I only learned this within the last year or two.

Sure, but you write off the adjustments and coping mechanisms you learned to mitigate the disadvantages of resistive heating as if those are a forgone conclusion. That borders on a disingenuous argument.

Summary to my eyes: Ackshully, resistive is better if you’re smart about it and anyone who doesn’t think this way is just not as smart as me…

Well could we somehow do it via serial number on the notes maybe? Like let’s say we use the event to denote a switch to color money instead of green only. And then we say in 10 years, all green money is expired and worthless, so every note has to come back into the Treasury to get renewed, and at that time be potentially subjected to repatriation taxes.

Think something like that could work?

… Did Trump just preside over the first F15 loss in history?

Oh yeah, I just mean academically. We would need to be on a much different anti oligarchy footing to actually implement. But in the meantime, I like to noodle out systems and mechanisms.

Let’s say we eventually get to a renewed trust buster energy like we used the last time we broke up the corporate giants long ago.

Is there anything we could realistically do even with full control of the government, or is that money basically propping up the entire interconnected world economy?

Wonder if there’s a way to force all outstanding Treasury notes outside of the country to need to return back to treasury for renewal or otherwise be written off at invalid debt.

I’ll admit that I still use v4, but only because I didn’t have a compelling reason to switch. That said, this feels like the kinda reaction I would have had were I in his shoes. 😂

Well I’ve got plenty to say on it. It largely made school districts nationwide more concerned about standardized testing scores than actually teaching. Result: Teaching in Brooklyn in a bad area, administration pressured me into finding ways to inflate grades of failing students who couldn’t even copy words off the board onto paper and hand it in. But all those people probably left with high school diplomas by the end of their time in high schools.

No Child Left Behind probably destroyed us.

HDR is like the only reason I’m on Windows 11. Already switched my entire home lab over to proxmox.

What would you recommend today if I wanted good HDR support and gaming with a Radeon GPU?

Or should I just wait for Mint to get those features?

I feel like politicians are completely unaware of the fact they can take money from everyone and still ignore them and vote the way they were elected to.

Like, lobbying is basically a targeted advertisement to politicians.

They act like advertisement is some kind of law they have to follow.

So they’re either morons or they’re deliberately corrupt. Either way, it ain’t being good at their job. Any other job they’d be fired.

Indeed. And it doesn’t mean I’m stupid and am going to go around shooting ICE for sport.

But what it does mean is if armed masked thugs break into my home without a judicial warrant, they’ll be fired upon.

I’d rather an honest to God murder trial then getting disappeared with no due process to some black box foreign prison. And yes, I’d rather die fighting for that end, rather than the unknown end that is the ICE process.

And it also means if society does start cracking at the seams and anarchy or insurrection become plausible, I’m not completely defenseless.

What next time I go to an airport? I’ll just not fly. I don’t play unfair games, I don’t engage with broken systems. There are plenty of other ways to live my life.

Those people are either paid shills or permanent victims of life, either way, they are useless.

It trained me to buy a Beretta 1301. Learned how to ghost load it to a 7+2 capacity. Learned about different ammo types and what use cases.

I didn’t own a gun before ICE was set loose like wild dogs.

Train that.
