    They didn't consider it but she took it way too hard, like she has PTSD or something. I don't play that pity me game.

    Society told her she was bad so she was offended by a poorly designed app? Okay, it's safe to ignore this one.

    There's simply too many humans for things to improve. We're outbreeding and overkilling every other species of animal.

    There will be 8 billion of us soon, that's reason enough to stop and rethink parenthood.

    This is what reproductive freedom leads too. Abort because you lack the funds now and would create a poor baby, abort because your baby would be disabled, abort because you dislike the father,...

    This is what reproductive freedom leads too. Abort because you lack the funds now and would create a poor baby, abort because your baby would be disabled, abort because you dislike the father, abort because a female baby won't have as large an economic return. It's a woman's right to decide, clearly not all decisions will be acceptable to society.

    Realize that your wait for death will be a third done, then half done, ect. Life might be meaningless but dying is reality and you'll easily find meaning in that.

    Meh? He denied it and make it unsafe for people to work around him. You can go to jail for pissing in public because it's obscene, what he did would be counted as sexual assault. That's no meh,...

    This will change very little, so many men are disfunctional in how they interact with each other in creative positions. They tear into each other and their creations until they reach a point where they start working together to objectify women as a way to assert they are all superior simultaneously by virtue of having dicks. If there's a solution to this disgusting display of inhumanity good luck finding it, experience has taught they're going to be hacking into your PC and filling it with dog porn while you ponder such things.

    Nice article, I like the mindfulness approach some of them are using. I'd be interested in reading the abuse checklist, stuff like that is great to know. I'm not touching the politcs part, though.
