How many of your friends use Stoat?

Why not? Matrix has a call feature too, has it not? Can't you share a link that anybody can use to join a call too? How is that different from Zoom?

If only your father could apply the same level of criticism to his news sources as he does with other news sources.

They estimate 6M people travelling to watch the games? 😂 Sure. 6M people will take the chance of getting rerouted to El Salvador or shipped to a detention facility. Even if they were all white, they'd all have to be conservative and not say a single bad thing about Trump otherwise they could be put on a plane back to where they came from.

Transportation, I contend, is the least of visitors problems.

Are you deeply disturbed too?

Poland has PiS in the government for 8 years? 12? They don't want Ukrainian refugees either and have a strong connection to the US due to their Christianity and thus their "values". Tusk has had trouble getting laws through because the PiS president keeps vetoing them.

Poland hates Russia with a burning passion. If push comes to shove this year, the EU won't be able to defend them from Russia. The majority of the union didn't take The Pooteen threat seriously and hasn't scaled up to a pre-war economy. The US will always be ready. The decision, IMO, is quite clear. Poland wouldn't fight the US.

That sounds better than Japan and South Korea, but 680€/month for daycare is nuts! Wtf? That's a very important thing to subsidise. The rest sounds very similar to Germany (again, friends there too), which doesn't have a high birth rate either, so IMO it's obviously not enough.

I'm not going to have children for, among others, monetary reasons as well. There's no way I would work 8 hours, travel 2 hours a day just to work and how much more for the child as it grows, also try to find time for my hobbies, and additionally worry about keeping my head above water in an apartment I don't own and right now 40-50% of my income goes to. If I had a partner, they'd have to get a job too to cover the bills.
We'd both just be surviving and the question is how would we even provide a good environment for the child to thrive if we're struggling.

It wouldn't surprise me if more childless people had similar thoughts on the matter. The government would have to make the experience of having children much more carefree so that parents can spend time with their children without worrying about money.

wat?

Nowadays it's an iphone

🍿 will the US implode before it can start a world war?

What is Denmark doing for people that want kids? Is it possible to raise a child on the income of a single person? Is child-care and education free? Is transport free for children until they leave school? Do families get a priority for social housing? Are there third places for children? Is it possible to have a career with a child (work from home, 4 day work week or reduced hours at equal pay, etc.)?

I know somebody in Copenhagen who just got a kid and haven't had the time to talk more in depth with them about this stuff, but they are having an incredibly tough time finding affordable housing with space for children anywhere close to where they work. Most houses on market are expensive for what they are and still need significant investment to get them in a state that doesn't mean paying heating bills out of your ass (their words). They have been looking for a few years now and got a kid first instead of waiting for a house but now things are getting more urgent.

When they are hopeless and in wars, people still have kids, but that's if you're uneducated. Education has a huge impact on fertility and you can't provide nothing or little to an educated populace and expect them to have kids.

Why not Matrix?

Yes, give the seppos full access to everything the Danes do. It will increase their security immensely.

Just wait until humans try human meat...

Destabilize a country, make a surprised pikachu face when they want to cross the border, deport them to random country. Problem solved.

The genius of the administration.

Let me guess, the government doesn't make having kids worthwhile despite the wealth they have other there?

More like people don't have time nor money for kids because their careers aren't rewarding, neither in the monetary nor other sense.

I have faith in the EU's opensource policy. Things will change. We're in no rush.

I thought the main hero killed all the aliens every time? Did she actually die in one of the movies?
