How so? Would you actually argue that the time and resources of two people are not more effective than those of just one? Or that any child needs both male and female role models and people of trust in their lives?

Thats possibly the dumbest and most irresponsible thing ive read all week. Children need two caretakers of ideally different genders, or otherwise role models actively involved in their development to compensate, to develop into truly well rounded and emotionally stable and healthy people. That is a proven fact.

The nucleus family model evidently achieves better results than any variant of single parenting, simply because there are two caretakers instead of one. You make it sound like in vitro fertilization of single women is some sort of yass queen feminist shortcut to having a well adjusted child, it definitely is not.

And a woman in that situation should seriously ask herself if a deliberately fatherless child in their life is actually for that not yet existing kid, or an act of vanity and inability to emotionally connect to a potential father.

I’ve been watching the 40k gameplay and it looks just gorgeous aesthetically, but the gameplay loop seemed incredibly repetitive even after just a few minutes, forcing the player into finisher juggling.

If the StarCraft shooter can make the universe come to life similarly and also manage to not be as restrictive in gameplay I’d probably grab that.

No, you can’t. If you believe that academia is corrupted by money to the point you walk away from it, taking their accolades and cash prizes would make you a complete hypocrite. And nobody would take you or anything you say afterwards seriously any more.

There is no taking the money and staying true to your principles here. Either you say the whole sphere of academia is corrupt and fucked, or you take a nice big cash prize and play the game. Can’t say taking money is bad and then take that money yourself

Tangentially related, but i have taken to sleeping twice per day for around 4-5 hours each very well. I have adhd and at some point during the day I will just mentally crash, in the past I sometimes fell asleep sitting up somewhere (rewarded with wild neck pains of course).

Since deliberately taking a sleep during the day that has been much less of an issue.

Fair enough, though I must say that for me personally, as a german, nothing at all has changed in my life between having Obama, trump or Biden in office. Of course, what goes on politically in the states eventually affects the climate here as well, I was just arguing that not caring for the day to day business of foreign domestic politics is fine. Perhaps we argued over different things unintentionally.

With the implication that i should care about your election because of it, which still makes no sense for anyone not voting in your election, which sums up to about everyone outside of the exceptionalism capital.

Embellished and bi?

As an uninvested european, are you undecided? No? Could either candidate do or say anything that might sway your vote, but not make headlines you will learn of anyway with it? No? Then why burden your mind with a constant torrent of negativity?

Indirectly at best. Either way, what the fuck am i supposed to do with polling numbers in some US state or the latest despicable thing republicans say? I don’t vote in your election. Might as well declutter my feed from irrelevant info and acknowledge the result when it is over

Not op, but i have filtered a lot more than you actually. Lemmy has a very specific demographic and some topics and talking points are insanely repetitive and exhaustively discussed at all times, particularly US politics which, as a european, don’t matter to me. Just tell me who won when it’s done

Seems crazy that official summer lasted until just now, wow. Didn’t realize that

I still wish we would adjust our calender system by a few months, so the seasons align better with each quarter.

Is… is it summer? we are about to have fucking october.

Ideally, supervision over most non critical sectors would fall to randomly drafted, single term committees of the people, think jury duty except better compensated and obviously with bureaucratic resources available to enable these committees to fulfil their role adequately.

Now this isn’t suited for everything, but in either system any true oversight is done by the people, not the state.

Yes please daddy HR please mediate this mild discomfort between two coworkers because we cannot be bothered to just apologize to each other and move on on our own

Dont get me wrong i dont disagree with you that some people depend on the protection it offers, but it also makes me wonder how the person gets by outside work when they have to solve disagreements and rude interactions on their own.

Wow.

She was the equivalent of 18 for about a month or so? in her life cycle. She was probably older (and more mature) than neelix by the point she broke up with him.
