  • The Western business mindset isn’t compatible with this approach. If you have a business that has 2 portions and only one is profitable you split it and dump the unprofitable part. If the government forces you to do both you just cut costs from the unprofitable train making everything shitty for everyone.

    The Asian cultural Zeitgeist has more focus on stewardship so if someone gives you a responsibility (public transit) and a privilege (commercial hubs) you understand that the great power comes with the great responsibility. You’re still a capitalist and get rich as fuck, but society benefits too.



  • The worst part of this gif is that if you look closely, the robot puts its hands down after it removes the helmet gently like a human would. Yet even with this seemingly gentle motion it crushes and bursts the water bottle. If someone put their hands on the table they’d be broken.

    You can’t replace people with Tesla robots because these things are fundamentally unsafe. If there was a human serving water that bottle would never have burst. Water bottles would have been knocked down but no one would have gotten hurt. If someone had their hand there it would have been broken.

    A human wouldn’t rip Grandpa’s arm off to help them up. A human wouldn’t smash your hand because you got in the way of a motion. A Tesla robot would. It literally just smashed a bottle open by accident. There are NO safety features in these things. They’re as bad as Tesla cars where the slightest incident and you’re drowning in front of your loved ones or burning alive in front of a fireman.





  • Racial Disparities: African Americans, Caucasians, and Hispanics each made up about 31% of asset forfeiture cases, indicating potential racial disparities in how civil forfeiture is applied

    Cops stealing money from minorities, of course that’s legal. Steal infant formula to feed your baby? Straight to jail!

    Let’s see $69 Billion. 62% comes from African and Hispanic Americans. That’s $41.4 Billion from those two groups which make up 102 million Americans combined. That’s $405 stolen from every African or Hispanic American man woman and child over 19 years.

    Serve and protect indeed. ACAB.





  • I love this post, I’d add that the reasons for this feeling is that humans aren’t a very developed animal as a newborn. Many animals come out walking, not humans.

    What that means is that the first while the baby and mom are kind of finishing out that development. There isn’t much you can do with the baby, whereas the mom is consumed by the constant needs of the baby for food etc… so being a dad means mostly just helping.

    As the baby gets older the Dad job expands exponentially, and that’s where your role as an independent caregiver starts to take over from your support role. And being a dad is amazing! Teaching kids about life, about themselves, about others, and about society is just the best.

    I still remember teaching my daughter about the existence of the moon in the sky vividly. How often is it that you get to show someone the freaking moon and they don’t know about it?? She saw it and was mesmerised by it around the time she started speaking words and I pointed at it and said “Moon” and she said “Moon” and looked for it everytime we were outside. She’s in high school now so she’s hopefully learned more about the world by now!

    Anyways, I have the same tip as the guy above. The first year is hard for baby and mom (esp if breastfeeding) so do your best to help out. Try to snuggle your baby as much as possible, especially after feedings. Babies need a lot of touch, and moms often get “touched out” which sucks for everyone. Snuggling babies is great, and after feedings there is less chance that snuggling leads to hungry baby and passing the baby to mom. Try to save a few hours here and there for yourself, for maintaining a social life and support network because that’s hard. If she’s not breastfeeding FEED THE BABY. It’s great bonding time and dads don’t often get that. One of our kids couldn’t breastfeed and he’s still the closest to me now after a decade. I don’t know if feeding was part of that, but it was great either way.

    But he previously said “Sex is for making children. Any man who has sex with women because it ‘feels good’ is gay”… So that doesn’t seem to match with him saying you’re supposed to have sex with many women for fun… What the hell is he saying!!!



  • If you’re looking for inclusive spiritual community you can look for Unitarian Universalist congregations. They’re all over Europe and North America. They’re based on progressive values instead of Scripture so you bring your own deity/pantheon/no deity. They’re basically a spiritual community for the left from Pagans to Christians/Jews/Muslims to atheists and agnostics and everyone else.

    In my area there are a lot of ageing hippies and a lot of millennials and Gen Z looking for community for their children which is a delightful mix. Lots of LGBTQ+ representation as well.

    Could be a useful place to look!
