I think automation in general has been in an awkward stage for a while, maybe analogous to adolescence or puberty. At some point our immediate world will become truly automated, able to sense what we need or want and provide it with very minimal setup and instruction, like a cocoon of personal convenience. Right now it's more like a 19th century vision of a house of the future with pulleys and wires everywhere - we haven't gotten rid of the pulleys and wires, we've just moved them into apps.
As a kid in a Catholic family I remember my dad saying God intended man to live "by the sweat of his brow". No idea if it's a bible quote or what, I can just hear him saying it. But I think there's a mentality that life wasn't meant to be fun or easy, and therefore thinking it should be is a wrong thought. Somehow this doesn't make inheriting wealth and living in abject luxury evil or wrong, as long as you still have a work ethic. Or something, I dunno.
They want having children to be a woman's punishment for unapproved sex, and they want the kid (who had zero responsibility for creating that situation) to suffer through it along with her, with zero help so it's all as unpleasant as possible, cuz apparently that makes Baby Jesus smile. Fucking lunatics.
Right, so if somebody gets pregnant and doesn't want to be, they can take responsibility and get an abortion, and you can stay they hell out of their business. Problem solved.
Using birth control = zero responsibility? Wow. Do you have a newsletter?
No need to sound like a political science textbook. Birth control means you don't have to get pegnorate!
I totally want to play this - where can I download Devastating Floods in Spain??? Does it run on Linux?
As an atheist I really think getting upset over Xmas is about as stupid as thinking Santa Claus is communist for wearing red. It's a social holiday! Enjoy it! Go to parties, put up lights, exchange presents. Think of Santa as a red Winnie the Pooh and chill TF out.
Marked on my calendar, see you all there!
