  • Here’s the way I look at it. This is your life and you get to play it out as you please. It’s really none of my business to begin with, and I am not really sure how this would come up in casual conversation, so I am hoping to most people it’s just not even a topic. I have kids, I have friends that have kids, and even with that basic amount of knowledge we don’t sit around chatting about things like that. Don’t overthink this, and keep in mind that you make your own decisions. Just because you don’t have kids doesn’t mean anything either. I have friends with no kids, and gotta say, sometimes I am a little envious. Wouldn’t change anything, but it’s nothing to feel bad about. Lighten up on yourself and just do what you want to do.


  • Lemmy seems a lot less toxic than Reddit.

    Not sure I am seeing the same. I posted a message about a bash command yesterday and it was almost immediately downvoted. And I have no idea why since it should work for what the person asking wanted/needed. That was one of my big issues with reddit was the sheer negativity that came out of that site and I know I am talking about a single downvote here, but it makes me pause. It has happened more than this one time which is why I get that feeling. I think some people really need to revisit the use of the downvote.




  • FTA - “The reason this matters is that no-fault divorce legally allows marriages to end much more quickly than in previous decades. When there are relatively few legal or financial consequences connected with divorce, it’s natural for people to gravitate toward that option when their marriage hits a rough patch,” he adds. “What those people often don’t consider, however, is the harm — both present and future — inflicted on their children once a divorce is finalized.”

    This dude is a moron. Newsflash mr carson, having kids trapped in a nightmare where their parents are at war with one another is way more harmful. And what the fuck is he talking about “with few financial consequences”? As someone who just finally paid off credit cards from my divorce years ago, where I never even got to touch the card, he can kiss my ass.




  • Mid 80’s Bronco. My ex insisted that she had to have a bronco. It had a 302 in it, but holy hell. I am sure it was the fact that they were still trying out emissions schemes but I bet it had less than a hundred hp. It would barely move out of it’s own way, and if you got about 6mpg you considered yourself lucky. Toss in an oil leak and it was like driving the Exxon Valdez. I can’t decide if the best day of my life was getting rid of the bronco, or her…

    Narrator: Both…
