The reason this comes up is because I was reading Imp1 comments and replies to them and he’s mentioned multiple times before that he believes that the actual answer to a lot of this is making artificial wombs so that you can cut out women from making kids and relationships with women have to be about something else. That would mean that since women can't use their wombs as a bargaining tool, their intellect and personalities have to be what keeps a man interested, at least imo, and I can see why it would appeal to him, but are they even reasonable?
I haven't done the research myself and thought it would be more fun to have a discussion over it, but still, I’m just curious as to how the tech works if at all. I've seen things where the tech is being “suppressed” (hidden from the public like a lot of current tech we use today was during the Cold War, ala the internet), but is that true, or not? It's just genuinely an interesting topic to me.
In the United States, thirteen states — Arkansas, Idaho, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, North Dakota, Oklahoma,[1] South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas,[2] Utah, and Wyoming[3] have trigger laws that would automatically ban abortion in the first and second trimesters if the landmark case Roe v. Wade were overturned.[4][5][6] Illinois formerly had a trigger law (enacted in 1975), but repealed it in 2017.[7][8][9] Also, nine states — Alabama, Arizona, Michigan, West Virginia, and Wisconsin as well as the already mentioned Arkansas, Mississippi, Oklahoma, and Texas, still have their unenforced pre-Roe v. Wade abortion bans on the law books. Those laws are not currently enforceable due to Roe v. Wade, but could be enforced if Roe v. Wade was overturned.[5]
The one thing I do have to ask is if these 18 states do end up banning abortion, are we going to see women traveling interstate in order to get abortions? What exactly is going to happen? For the ones here who have a problem with black people, if Roe v Wade never happened, do you think the country would have been able to handle having double the amount of black people it’s had since RvW, or no? It’s all rather interesting to me.
“Ahhh gotta love the Right. Elon looks like he's actually about to succeed at the thing we all cheered him for a week ago and half this thread is turning on him and calling him part of the enemy for actually not being stopped by said enemy. No wonder the Right can never manage to actually take any real ground or deal any real blows to the enemy. Even actually trying is considered evidence of being a turncoat.”
For my hobbies, I actually found the subreddits for those aren’t total cesspools, but outside of those, I glance through r/assholedesign and r/ABoringDystopia, just to see how pervasive ads are in our daily lives and goddamn data collection is terrible. I stopped with politics ages ago, but until my account gets banned, I’m gonna use it.
If you didn't see my post about this a few months ago, here it is.
What happened after that incident is that the day after, mom said she had to go to New York because my stepdad needs surgery up there, so basically nothing happened, because i had to stay with my little brother for a month and take him to school, but mom and stepdad came back on the 15th, and they said nothing about the booster until a few days ago, after the news started pushing this Omicron or whatever bullshit variant this is. Right now, I'm not in a position to where i can do what i did and literally refuse to take the booster, because she wants to be in the doctor's office with me as they inject me, and I'm really fucking worried that I'm gonna get heart problems. i had to get vaxxed back in February, but now, I'm just really fucking worried. I'm gonna document things for the next two weeks and keep y'all posted, and hopefully nothing happens.
I’m a 21 year old who was formerly in college and is now working full time because of a combination of circumstances, grades, grandma having a stroke and a bunch of other shit.
Anyway, I don’t want to take the damn booster, and mom is literally making me walk home because she doesn’t wanna be in the same car as me (warning sign I should’ve noticed a while ago, as she threatened to kick me out if I didn’t take the Pfizer jabs), and now I think I’m gonna get kicked out of my house.
Right now I don’t have much to my name, if anything at all (except about 1k worth of Yugioh cards) and I also have debt because of me being an idiot with other shit, but I’m on the way to paying the debt off. If I do get kicked out, what should I do first? Right now I’m trying to see if any of my friends could take me in, and I’d be able to pay rent if they’d charge, but it just feels like hell, knowing my mom is a Branch Covidian, even though she’s an RN.
Saw a comment on a banking thread that said that Quantum Computing will kill crypto, I assume because it would be able to edit the blockchain and thus killing the entire point of bitcoin, but how exactly would it do this? How does it work and why does it mean all current encryption would become useless?
For me that’s RWBY. By god I loved V1-V6, and I was completely expecting how V6 ended, because I knew they listened to shippers way too much, but the Vic stuff just made me fall out of love with it instantly. It also helped that I started getting deep into the FGC and esports at that time, so learning how to play fighting games took a bunch of time that I used to spend watching other things and I put that into something more interactive.
This came up because I started listening to a bunch of older RWBY music, realized how old RWBY is and how long it’s been since I watched an episode. Not gonna watch one of course, but it’s just something that came to my mind recently, and god damn, if I win the lottery, I know exactly what I would do with the money.
