Dyskolos

Sure, who knows. I just assumed that some boys were very jealous of the rockstar with a whole group of girls 😁 But yeah, kids can also be just idiots. We weren’t there.

And sure it’s not usually the case, and i wouldn’t tell that to any bullied kid. It just screamed jealousy in this particular case.

Lol. I will borrow that saying 😂

Born in the 70s. I’ve been called gay for nearly everything i ever did in the next decades. Didn’t even understand back then why my assumed sexual orientation was something seemingly bad.

I’ve also called someone gay. He swore he was hetero but wanted to suck me off. Because dicks are so “aesthetically beautiful” while vajayays where just “disgustingly filthy axe-wounds” 😂 He quit the friendship because i thought he was gay and dared to voice it.

That was sad and the best example of what this stupid world does to people who are just slightly off the “normal” path.

They didn’t either. One idiot started it out of jealousy (i presume) and the rest just parrotted him. People and their group dynamics…

Das Land ist voll genug, sollte das dein Argument sein. Die Kinderheime platzen aus allen Nähten. Aber klar, warum sollte Peter Geringverdiener nicht doch seinen Trieben nachgeben und ein Kind, welches er sich eh nicht wirklich leisten kann, in die Welt setzen? Man muss ja schließlich seine Hochqualitätsgene am Leben halten. Irgendwer muss ja nun später nal den Mindestlohn aufrecht halten!

Adoptier eins. DAS wäre das Gegenteil von egozentrisch.

Aus dem Motto (und aus rein egoistischen Gründen) haben wir auch keine kids. Dabei stünden wir außerhalb dieser Probleme und unsere kids hätten alles. Aber in diese Welt Nachwuchs zwingen? Das wäre egozentrisch.

I’m a techie and left reddit after the api-desaster. I won’t use things when they have ads. Period. And I’m glad I found lemmy.

Nach oben buckeln, nach unten treten. Das ist nunmal die meistverbreitetste Hymne der einfältig Unreflektierten.

Was wir wohl täten, wenn endlich die “elenden harzer” ihre “gerechte entlohnung” (nüscht) bekämen? Endlich Frieden und 5,- Mindestlohn?

Strenge Qualitätskontrolle? Dann wären die Mülldinger ja alle verboten 😁

Besides highly doubting it, it’s not much of a point for anything. Like “there might be one exact path this road-trip would be fun”

So. I did get it right. You didn’t make a point at all,except people should - or shouldn’t have a kid based on what they want. Which already is the way it is.

Okay. This daily-slog shouldn’t really be a thing. Ideally. People shouldn’t just do shit just to do shit. But to do shir because it’d need to be done and they kinda are fine with it. Not everyone’s fine with collecting garbage like not everyone’s fine to do rocket science. To fuel the stereotyoes. But some are fine doing one or the other. Or anything in between. It should be catered to that. Ok, now my shit sounds like utopia…

Oh. Right. My 20s not THE 20s 😁

Oh. Oops. But i dunno. Is “my life is bland, let’s have a kid to maybe rock it up” really a good reason to procreate? Or more in the sense like “at least i would have a purpose in life”?

I’d hope for it to be even more fair. Housing for all, healthcare for all, public transport… All the shit that shouldn’t be a for-profit but is. Unless you’re a landlording insurance-ceo that owns trains. Then the current system just rocks.

I’m so sorry man. Capitalism just sucks for the vast majority. It’s not my system-of-choice, even if i highly profit of it. It’s humanity’s bane and ultimate end.

Yes. No job. Retired somewhere mid-20s. With 2 occasional let’s-try-something-new-job for some months since then. That was nearly 3 decades ago. So, weekend only matters because, where we live, life slowly withers saturdays and is dead as a doornail on Sundays 😁

Bland life without kids? Absolutely not. I do everything i love with the person i love the whole day. We travel a lot, whenever we desire to. Sometimes just a spontaneous trip to who-the-fuck-cares for however long we want. Do that with kids. No thanks. We don’t even want the responsibility of a pet. Just costs time and money we rather spend on ourselves. Having to wrap my life all around one single tiny human…ohgod no. THAT i would call a bland life. Maybe even while working some job? I wouldn’t find the time for that now, let alone when i would be forced to work too.

Glad it turned out well for you, but in tendency kids of poorer upbringing remain poor or at least have it way harder. But that’s not the point. It was just about my lack of willingness to be slave to a tiny human for at least 18yrs of MY life.

PS: don’t get me wrong. If you have to have a child for whatever reason, the love and care surely outweighs its monetary safety. Though, depending on where one lives, said lacking monetary safety can become a sad regret in a worst case. I, totally personally, wouldn’t gamble on that.

Sounds horrible. Here’s mine:

• Stand up when woken up and feeling like it.
• look into my wife’s cute face.
• we make food, watch star trek, drink tea
• decide how and where we’re gonna spend the day. Gaming? Binging? Pool? Museum? Zoo? Just driving around with no goal? Shopping-tour? Visit some city? Some voluntary work to help those less fortunate? Doing absolutely nothing?
• end the day in peace whenever we feel like it.

Oh yes. No kids, no pets.

Well, if one has such a miserable worker-bee-life, why the heck would one want to make it even worse with kids? And what future would that one give his/her kids? The same bright one? We all make our own beds, don’t we?
