Survive or even escape the collapse of my democracy.
As a Canadian, I also hope to survive the collapse of your democracy and the inevitable annexation of mine.
Good news: I have a solution to the problem
Bad news: it’s going to require giant fans, massive controlled fires, and all of the dank bud in Canada
Survive WW3, you mean?
Remain alive, last 5 years were touch and go.
Do you have an HR fetish or something?
That was incredibly inappropriate to say, who is your lemming manager? We will be discussing your behavior and next steps
Take it up with the Lemmy union rep, pal
Move to the country.
Eat me a lot of peaches.
But do they come from a can?
They were put there by a man.

If you’re going to dream, might as well go big.

Eating less and exercising more some fat to get down to my healthy weight. While that is commonly called losing weight, I want to put some muscle on so really the focus is on losing fat.
The goal is to have more energy and less issues with getting sweaty and tired in the heat, and have less dead weight getting in the way and wearing me out faster.
Survive.
Get a job
Move somewhere far away with my partner
Start T
Go low contact with my family
Be happy
Make friends
Add to my tattoo sleeveReally, I just want to figure out a way to make a stable, livable income without having to become a corporate wage slave again. The corporate wage slave part is negotiable.

Lol I’ve always wanted to get a pilots license to replace my commercial air travel, but damn is it expensive and even more expensive to fly anywhere and maintain the plane lmao
Yup. I started taking lessons, but then I needed a new bathroom, and after that was paid down I needed a new car, so I had to put it on hold. Hopefully I’ll get to pick it up again next year.
Marriage, homeownership, baby. No big deal.
What kind of person has a baby in the late 2020s.

I’ve always wondered how bad things have to get before people say “no thanks, I’m good.”
I know the answer is different for everyone, so I guess I would phrase it by percentiles, e.g. when would 75% opt out.
I think you’re making unacknowledged assumptions in your question that may cause it to have no answer. The most affluent people often have very low birth rates. The most challenged people often have very high birth rates. There may not be a point “so bad” that people don’t reproduce.
People don’t reproduce for rational reasons. They are responding to a drive and have no insight into what informs that drive except by inference. But I still think there is a moral dimension to human reproduction and responding to a drive does not make it moot.
People don’t reproduce for rational reasons
Some people clearly do reproduce (or more directly: not reproduce) due to rational reasons, as demonstrated by people opting out. The most commonly cited reason is finances, but I’ve also seen environmental concerns or societal factors related to gender (e.g. with 4B).
Solid point though. The real question might very well be: what percentage of the population is willing to forgo reproduction due to adverse external conditions vs what percentage will continue even under extreme hardship?
Oh, you can get that done in a weekend. Easy! (The baby making part)
