  • Store a lot of things you never access

    Hope that helps 😌

  • I asked my parents exactly this.

    They said something like

    It was possible to live on one salary, so your mother could be a full time stay at home mom. This gave us the energy to be able to follow other passions

    Basically 2 people with 2 full-time jobs between them have more energy than 2 people with 3 full time jobs between them.

    Mom could volunteer and join clubs while I was at school. Dad could do marathons on the weekend. We could do family activities like camping or skiing because they weren't exhausted by also having to do another 40 hours of work per week between them.

  • Its true, but [politics incoming] it's harder since the nuclear home resulted in the elimination of community, and both parents are forced to work to get by, and it only looks to be getting worse.

    Raising kids is great (for many people), but it shouldn't be your entire life. The unfortunate reality is that work and raising kids is the only life many people have access to.

    It's also not really the case that parents are "doing it to keep the population up" so the premise is wrong.

    But it's funny to imagine it that way

  • That's a lot of dragons. You sure they're not wyverns?

  • I need to do more to help the poor people around me.

  • I think I kinda get you, but also I think that it's just kinda the nature of humans to put people on pedestal. I can't really answer why (and honestly maybe I'm totally wrong, I'm not a social scientist).

    As far as pedestal candidates go, if we had to choose, I'd rank him pretty high. Seems to be a fairly reasonable and ethical guy, pretty smart, willing to listen to experts, loves to learn, self aware, and seems to be pretty ethical. Not as far left as I'd like, but choices are slim lol.How much is a facade and how much is truly him? We can never know. If it's a facade, it's an excellent one.

  • Ikr like... Give me a docker compose file and tell me what env vars need to be set to what. Why is it so complicated?

  • Lol yeah for sure, none of that is preachy. You're totally reading your own words in a totally unbiased way

  • Hey, I'm coming in and matching your energy.

    They didn't specifically mention children or adult men, for you to assume they meant adult men is a crazy assumption to make.

  • You're not wrong but please don't rub it in 😥

  • Toad isn't a mushroom, it's an example of convergent evolution 😌

  • Not cosmOS, Crunchy. The person who said "that's why young boys are voiced by women" to which you replied "that's not really what I'm talking about"

    I could have replied directly to that but I didn't wanna fork the thread, since it's more or less the same convo. Although in hindsight I should have.

    But generally I feel like y'all are talking past each other

  • By the powers of pedantry, I have been summoned!

    That has less to do with longevity compared to casting men as it does their ability to better mimic the higher pitch of children.

    What the heck are you talking about?they were saying "that's why child characters get voiced by women instead of men", they said "that's why child characters get voiced by women instead of children" Because that choice absolutely does have to do with the longevity of the voice.

    That's a wild way to misunderstand them lol.

  • I'm afraid you've jumped the shark

  • I won't understand what you mean 😌

  • Like... Per capita, or total?

  • "you"

  • I'm addicted, I can't stop
