Your first one is this one: https://tacticalbabygear.com/products/tactical-baby-carrier, which looks maybe like it, but in the “Coyote Brown”, but I swear the one I saw had big tacticool pockets on it

societal pressure shouldn’t ever be used to pressure someone in or out of a career in that way. I’m sorry for your mom

That was literally my point that I hadn’t said either of those, you assumed that’s what I meant. Its moot now. I won’t respond again.

Tan military style coloring, padding simulating “armor”, tactical bulky pockets mimicking pockets on military gear, it was pretty obvious if you saw it.

Telling your child almost immediately after birth that you’re embarrassed to be seen carrying/being around them. Not a great look for a new dad.

before anyone immediately smashes “downvote” and comes here arms raised, “AI” includes ML, as in models specifically trained for this, and models have been around for 20+ years. AI != LLMs

Nope, not buying it. You already smashed the “class traitor” button, for me checks notes asking people to not give money to rich oil companies when they can by doing things like buying electric appliances. Any and all emotion or thoughts above that are what you assumed about me, this conversation is over.

Ironically if you hadn’t jumped down my throat I think we could have had a good conversation. Instead of creating allies, this just sewed more division. I’d analyze who really caused more class divide here.

Oh, it’s simply something for men who are super worried about other men thinking they’re manly enough. They think having a child makes them weak, and so they have to macho it up to super prove to other men that just because they’re… tough? Super manly tough. Like really macho awesome bicep manly.

Yeah I think this wins.

Saw a guy in the airport with a freaking tactical baby carrier. Ultimate poser move.

Imma singining in the shOWER

My Hyundai EV is honestly very great, I got the kona

Do they deserve it? Absolutely, but I keep that at a meta level online. Individually I believe we have to be the bigger person and open our arms

We’ve seen your feedback since launch, and we’re reading all of it

Oh well, thank god they read it. Here that everyone, call it off, they read the feedback

If you think I’m a “class traitor” for suggesting instead of buying a gas water buying an electric then there is nothing more I can say to you. Holy fuck.

So your first bit, “Why is it cool to shit on a 4 year science degree”, your example says why I found it sad that she gave up on her science degree. The opposite of “shitting on a 4 year science degree”

If you’re upset about wasted potential -> becoming a nurse, then you missed the point of my entire comment and went right to your own conclusions. If you’re upset that a career like a chemist (or a doctor, or a lawyer) require more training and pay better than nurses then you need to take it up with society as a whole. I’m talking about my friend who gave up on a much higher salary and strong career prospects to be a housewife and went with rural culture approved choice of being a nurse, and how gender norms were a non-zero part of her decision.

I don’t think we’re agreeing or disagreeing, because I agree with everything you said.
