It’s your duty to vote to stop fascism (again). I’m so tired of that message. They can earn my vote, I’ve tried stopping fascism twice now, what have they done besides maintain the status quo

A vasectomy.

Edit: sorry I get it now. I got peace of mind knowing that I was in control of contraception. Not having children means a lot of freedom. So basically freedom and peace of mind.

Bro

I am squeamish as all hell. Didn’t think I could do it. There’s a consult. They give you a Xanax, I’d recomme r telling them you’re a heavyweight and get a driver, also recommend to pay the extra 100 bucks for the laughing gas.

It’s over fast. There’s minimal pain. I ordered a jock strap and used it to hold ice packs over my underwear. It’s uncomfortable but I just layed up all weekend. Overall what I got out of it is completely worth it.

I’ll answer any questions you have

Articles are so much better than videos a lot of the time. I’ll watch a video for kinetic things, like how to flush my radiator etc.

Its annoying when information is in a video that could easily be written out and skimmed.

One data point and I’m American, but figured I’d give my two cents on why I did it.

In addition to all the reasons you listed I think that my own mental health is an obstacle, and also the increasingly limited access to women’s healthcare.

Making the decision to not have kids was a complex issue for me as I imagine it is for others too. Tbh the political and economic climate was probably the final push I needed, but there’s probably at least 10 reasons in total.

Does anybody have any suggestions for alternatives for chats?

I use it a lot for classes (students use them) and video games.

Does anybody have a screenshot of the chat the article is referencing? It’s a slack chat with journalists iirc

The screeshot was at the top of my feed yesterday and now I can’t find it anywhere

Edit nvm it’s ay the bottom of the article yaaay

Ah thanks for clarifying, I got mixed up.

I grew up in MS and was detained in county juvenile facilities multiple times. It’s awful.

The place mentioned in that article was one of the places they’d threaten you with, and the rumors about what happened to kids there were terrifying. Thank God I never went to one, the county ones were bad enough. That’s where I found out I didn’t actually have any rights.

Can’t believe he pardoned a judge profiteering off of that shitshow.

Mississippi is corrupt af

Slightly off topic, but yesterday at the top of my Lemmy feed there was a screenshot of a slack channel where (supposedly nyt journalists) were discussing either posting his writings or images of his face.

I went back to look for it and can’t find it. Anybody know where I can find it?
