No need to wait: they've already fried themselves out of the evolution game with STDs. Any child they have will likely be retarded or diseased in some way. Don't forget to include alcohol as a drug - "fetal alcohol spectrum d

No, the real answer is that "It's war, famine and disease!' If you eliminated the birth control pill tomorrow, we'd have plenty of fertility: that's what war, famine and disease do. All the complaints we hear here a

What's the problem? The US is simultaneously flirting with potential AI. If the AI proves to be productive, we won't need as many workers. The economy can shift from a human worker only base to a human + AI base. The solution is m

After a brief look at this discussion I am surprised that little reference is made of the evolutionary aspects of having children. Posts tend to center on "It's all about me!" rather than "it's all about the genes!&

The title of this post is misleading: should be something like "Investigation of a potential crime committed by a Federal Officer is done by federal agencies first. Other (state, local, etc.) agencies may investigate later." The i

Not likely. From a simple web search: "As of the 2021 Census, approximately 15.0% of all occupied private dwellings in Canada were condominiums, up from 13.3% in 2016, with the vast majority located in major metropolitan areas. In prim

The HOA would merely assume control of your unit and sell it to someone else (even at a loss) who could follow the rules. But the parent post is an example of the human detritus that floats ashore when condos sell: idiots with no concept of

HOAs are a legal framework designed for condominium (and other) domains where some parts of the property are owned in common. Without HOAs, I fail to see how condominiums could thrive. And condominium domains are everywhere ! So there is

An excellent video, even the additional ending, which he worried about posting and so added a "fake ending". Just keep listening to it for another view of our current State of the Union from a midwesterner's perspective.
