As someone who once was that 9 year old, and has my own child I'll probably go through the same thing with, hugs and there is a light at the end of the tunnel

Need to get a better shower curtain then! Or swap the rod for a curved one, or both
Just wait till you learn how cold shrinkage affects the peeing experience for un-cut folks! Let's just say it doesn't all shrink uniformly...
Its directly backed by American oil companies, so no surprise there
The rinse also gets rid of any bugs that might have hitched a ride. There's some nasty parasites you can completely avoid just by rinsing your produce
Listeria can't survive cooking so just fully cook any food you get that's RTE (Ready To Eat). Examples of high risk food included frozen pizza and corn dogs since there's both meat and bread coming together, each having its own food bourne illness risks. So yeah, fully cook your food.
The good news however is that the FDA takes Listeriavery seriously and will stop production at a plant until a battery of thousands of swabs all come back negative. Plants don't want to be shut down by the FDA so they do their own swabbing very frequently and often have private contractors who also swab very frequently so that they can identify contaminations before they get to the FDA
More good news is Listeria really struggles to compete with other food bourne illnesses, so in a facility that's really poorly cleaned and maintained, it'll most likely be a far less deadly pathogen because they beat out Listeria in the competition for resources to grow and spread
The thing is, the military is America's largest wellfare program. Reducing or cutting the military could directly lead to a localized demand-side recession in areas with large numbers of military recruits and/or contractors

True it is generally regarded as ineffective from a public health perspective. I have known people who relied on it though with some success (in both cases it was a committed relationship and they just relied on it as a temporary stopgap while between birth controls) I'd hazard to say, pulling out is an option if your risk tolerance is high enough, but it's risky as hell since precum often contains sperm as well
One only needs to watch John McAfee's uninstalling McAfee Antivirus video (NSFW) to realize how much of a legend he was.
LGR did a wonderful retrospective when he announced his candidacy for US president. Dude seriously lived life to its fullest and made tons of questionable decisions
People don't remember how he flat out campaigned on some policies that were to the left of Hilary. They don't remember his charisma in the Republican debates, the way he expertly worked crowds back in 2015-16. They ask have forgotten about how he said he'll "drain the swamp" and that he was "self funding his campaign" so he "wouldn't be beholden to any other interests"
Turns out he was just a sad wannabe dictator who can't even manage to control a Latin American nation with the full force of the US Military, let alone establish himself as emperor over the 'states
For me it was shoving a bunch of Teslas in a hole in Las Vegas and calling it a "hyperloop" that was when I fully realized he was entirely full of shit
I really appreciated him around that same era, as he seemed to be the only rich person actually showing any real care or action to try to do something about climate change. Up until him every rich person and every politician seemed to be actively dismissing climate change as a concern. It feels like around 10 years ago was when political discourse finally stopped trying to argue whether or not climate change is real and instead shifted to trying to argue that any actions to prevent climate change were unrealistic or futile
Remember, Musk was building up an electric car company, a home battery company and a solar roofing company through the 2010s. Plus he was pushing for cool space stuff. We were going to have a colony on mars by 2020! Incredible!
It was the whole hyperloop thing that killed it for me. It quickly became apparent as his Las Vegas "hyperloop" was just Teslas in a tunnel that he was full of shit and it put his other lies and half-truths into perspective. Honestly his antics over the last couple of years have killed my interest in space flight. I fucking loved watching rocket launch live streams. I stayed up until 2am to watch the Artemis launch. And now I just can't bring myself to get excited.
I appreciate that he brought Tesla to profitability and Tesla proved to other automakers and consumers that electric cars are viable and cool. I appreciate that SpaceX has completely changed the rocket industry for the better and now every rocket program worth it's salt in the world is trying to replicate the Falcon 9 rocket boosters. But that's all I'll give him. He didn't do the work, he just funded it, and I appreciate that he did fund it when nobody else would but that's it.

I read it more as they're open to having kids but not open to having an STD, which honestly is a pretty sane headspace to be in

Not all men, but always men
"Not all X but it's always X" is a common neonazi saying. Using it in a different context can even be a dogwhistle in some cases

It’s my personal opinion that having sex with a condom is worse than not having sex
Hard disagree. Good sex with a condom is still good sex. Plus if your reason for using a condom is birth control you only need the condom for PIV, and everything else can be completely unwrapped. I don't know about everyone else but I fucking love foreplay and just worshipping my partner's body while they do the same to me. Honestly it's the best part of having sex
Plus there's something super sexy about getting all hot and heavy, teasing and playing then grabbing the condom and unwrapping it. The moment you or your partner break that package open there's a commitment that this thing is going on thos penis because this penis is about to go into this vagina, and it's happening right now, not in 20 minutes after more play, it's happening right now.
Or don't just take my word for it, take GirlOnTheNet's word for it (obviously NSFW!)

The unfortunate thing with birth control is there's always tradeoffs with every method. IUDs can cause intense pain which may or may not go away after a while, the depo shot can cause a loss of bone density if used for a long period of time, condoms are less pleasurable and depending on the specifics may cause additional discomfort. Pulling out requires you to trust your male partner (a huge ask most of the time) surgical sterilization is basically permanent and requires one to undergo and recover from surgery (and for women an extremely invasive one at that)
I mean, it's not completely unrealistic that some alien race builds a generation ship, points it at Sol 3 because it has a strong magnetosphere, conditions for liquid water and a fairly oxygen rich atmosphere then after their 10,000 year journey they discover a race that's just beginning to figure out space flight on the planet previously observed to lack any industrial capabilities. Honestly that would make for a good film, and I'm sure there's science fiction books based on that idea already (Douglas Adams wasn't far off from that with the Galgafrinchians too, only they arrived about 20,000 years before our present day and supplanted neanderthals as the dominant hominid race on Earth)
There's a big difference between caring about whether a given game runs at 130FPS or 140FPS and noticing a new quarter second delay in database queries on your test db ar work. That quarter second per queey delay is going to stack up very quickly across the thousands or even millions of queries made in a day in a production database
I almost wonder if it's like Mt Everest climbers who climb without oxygen tanks, they do it more to prove that they can than for any rational reason
Wow getting back into the whole "everyone is a terrible driver except for me" again
