I think this applies to every breeder, regardless if they do pure breeds or trendy mutts.

I’d rather mix breeds gain popularity than pure breeds

You should avoid judgemental sexual partners anyways. Foot fetishes are considered “weird” if that’s how you phrase it. Generally speaking, it’s not that uncommon. Don’t open up with a partner about kinks unless you trust them not to run their mouth.

Nah, everyone else are haters or secret top 40 listeners.

But… bathrooms!!! With the children!!! /s

Just call me Britney

Those will… not sell. Elementary school kids have smart phones. This isn’t 2009 when the cool kids are sharing earbuds to listen to their Zune.

No ads doesn’t mean no data collecting

No, they cannot. I hope someone gives you a more in depth answer because I’m very sleepy. Socially, just because a state votes red doesn’t mean that everyone there is awful. It would not be fair to those citizens.

I do believe that texas has the right to secede. It won’t happen, but it was part of the bargin to rejoin after the Civil War.

I’m glad to see that we’re not all addicts here

IUDs and some birth control pills work by preventing implantation. Those would be banned, too.

I read some bickering about this amongst conservatives, and the reasoning seems to be:

1. Conception should occur from sex because of the love between husband, wife, and God or something

2. Typically, they’ll harvest(?) multiple embryos, check if they are viable or have genetic abnormalities, then discard those that aren’t viable or will result in major disabilities. To them, this is killing those unviable/unhealthy “babies”. Sometimes the couple will freeze multiple embryos as backups, but not need them after a successful pregnancy (or more). Those microscopic globs of cells that they call babies are then “murdered”. Their point is that this results in more deaths than lives.

I’m curious what their opinion would be if a woman wanted IVF after 5 miscarriages, was unable to get the treatment, and went on to have 7 more miscarriages, still without having a successful birth. To be real, fundie couples who refuse contraceptives and are hell bent on having a child could go through many more miscarriages than that.

They’re insecure about their intelligence but too prideful to admit when they don’t know something, even to themselves.

Education is the obvious fix, but at least in America, the idiots are trying to destroy it. If people learned critical thinking, almost everything else would fall into place. If we stopped reinforcing learned helplessness and made people practice logic and learn consequences, society would see a huge benefit. People need to be held accountable for their ignorance. Otherwise, they won’t learn. Those who refuse to learn should rightfully be shunned, because they’re the biggest propaganda weapon out there.

Cognitive dissonance is another major reason for idiocracy. The MAGAts are so blatant about their love for it. “Wokeness” is healing from cognitive dissonance, which they’ve labeled as a virus.

I’m sympathetic and offer to help someone if they’re being a bit stupid (all of us have our moments), but if they refuse, that’s where they should be held accountable.

The headline is very misleading. Porn companies are considering facial recognition as an option for validating age. Governments are putting more pressure on porn websites to keep minors away from the content, but it’s very hard to thoroughly prove your identity online. A government issued photo ID is useless if you have nothing to compare it to visually. That’s why many websites use bank/credit card info as opposed to an ID.

It is definitely a privacy concern if you worry about it being known that you watch porn, but I don’t think it’s right to fault the company.

It’s all relative. Ubuntu desktop is minimal compared to Windows, and I’ve found KDE to run much better than default Ubuntu. It’s lightweight for how much it offers.

To check for sperm. The body can heal in amazing ways, which can include reversing a vasectomy.

I still don’t fully believe in syncing, but it would take time, and, theoretically, you’d have to spend more time with your partner than you do with anyone else.

My partner and I always use condoms, but it is nice knowing where I’m at in my cycle. It helps to know how paranoid I should be since I live in a red state.

I don’t trust one method of birth control. We’ve talked about him getting a vasectomy, and I’ll probably be getting a microscope.

I use KDE plasma because I’m new to Linux but also want something minimal system-wise. I love the programs and the interface. Maybe my opinion would be different if I spent more time with other DE’s or used it as my daily driver, but I’m sold on it now.

GNOME is definitely more user-friendly for someone who is moving over from Windows/Mac. I wouldn’t recommend KDE to someone who is just going to stick to using one-click apps.

I read that Linux usage is much higher in India (I think ~13% vs 5% in the US, though the statistics are probably outdated). I am totally ignorant when it comes to India, so correct me if I’m wrong, but I’m wondering if the rise of Linux users has something to do with the government trying to limit access to Github.
