  • One of those things I don’t get, with all if the news on bad parents, why are we so eager to force people who obviously don’t want a child to have them? Obviously it’s not good for the child or the parent.

    Of course then you realize it’s not about the child or the parent, but the person picketing and screaming and their own personal emotions. They think they are thinking of the children, but it’s much more selfish.


  • So what does it mean that I’ve held these same beliefs for over 20 years now and didn’t need a comic? What does it mean that my wife holds the same beliefs, and that we’re both pro choice? Am I brainwashed? Have I been for decades now?

    Or have I looked around and known I do not believe there is a moral way for me personally to bring life into this world. Adopt maybe, but not new life.






  • Ugh okay I’ll say I’m torn. Put AI aside for just a second, pur grid and transmission lines are HORRIBLY in need of upgrading. Ask any Republican pre AI and they would have parrotted the same thing about EVs being too much for our grid.

    So, I’m not happy that it’s because of AI and datacenters. I do see we need to upgrade, and I have been also someone who is actually okay with eminent domain IF and only if the owners get full MARKET value (and I would throw on moving expenses). Of course we know things can be abused but ina just society I would say that if it means a few families moving for a more robust power grid, then I’m okay with it, even if it had to be me.

    That being said I feel that I have a nuanced take here and I fully expect to be downvoted to hell.










  • I personally like her for the same reasons. Very level headed about financial literacy and how easily we part ways with our money, calling out trends like fast fashion and it’s toll on supply chains and our wallets.

    I will say my only thing that I’ve soured on is she seems to think anything “fun” is wasteful. Which it is, but if properly budgeted is fine. Like she doesn’t drink because it’s too expensive, but I wish she’d give more nuance of if you’re drinking daily - yes you need to cap that off. If you go out monthly, that’s a different story.
