That’s a joke, right? When I looked it was only 500 to 620 a month per kid.

You have baby items to worry about, needing a crap ton of clothes (kids grow a LOT), having adequate nutrition (growth spurts too), school supplies, and more. If you’re already barely making ends meet, of COURSE you’ll struggle if you add another human being. Of course, cost of living also varies by area, as well as public transportation. Without that, you’d have to hope that you live near essentials like a family doctor, or you’d have to pony up even more money for a car and child seat.

If that’s not enough, you also get the fun of society looking down on your for “having kids before you were ready”. Many of us heard that from adults throughout the entire time we grew up. Why voluntarily walk into that? Nah. IF I ever have a kid, it won’t be untilI can guarantee that that doesn’t happen.

I don’t like where any of this is going. It was very very bad last time.

When I saw this post, I also thought about places like Camp, California, who weren’t so lucky in terms of having a safe electric infrastructure. I imagine it might be trickier to shift over in those types of areas.

It’s awesome that they managed that in BC. I hope more places gain that kind of stability.

I mean, a heck of a lot of people do get by just fine using public transport.

I think a nice balance would be better, personally, but it is an option. Public transit would be more viable if we increased it’s infrastructure. I believe that more people would use it if it was more appealing.

Sometimes it can be fun to not need to drive lol. Some of the best nights out over the last year ended in a bus ride home. Nobody had to be the DD this way.

I don’t know why, but I feel like I should also specify that we kept to ourselves and didn’t really talk while we were on the bus those nights.

I think it also has to do with the overall bad mental health that a lot of people have. We don’t really have a lot of truly helpful solutions for most people.

Yeah, we have some facilities, but they can be inaccessible. If you’re in denial over struggling, you might think that the amount you drink is ok, even if that amount might not actually be ok. Someone might see mental health or addiction stereotypes and think to themselves “I’m not as bad as that guy”, and then that person believes that they are ok when they really aren’t ok.

If someone seriously doesn’t want to stick around, they’re probably not going to care about littering. If someone hates everyone, they’re probably more likely to feel ok stealing. If someone’s constantly in mental agony, they might look for anything to escape it. If you think dinner is completely ruined, you probably won’t fret about what drink you want to pair with it.

None of this makes the bad stuff ok, but I seriously think that bettering our country’s mental health services would go a very long way in culling addiction. What we’re doing now certainly isn’t working.

Oh, I wasn’t trying to say that that would be the official name. I think lot of people would probably call it that just because we use that style of description for other platforms.

If someone somehow wasn’t familiar with xvideos, they would definitely be suprised lol.

I was kind of wondering how long it would be until something like this happened.

When we talk about something we watched on Facebook, most people would call it a Facebook video.

When talking about something we watch on YouTube, people usually call it a YouTube video.

It’s probably only be a matter of time until someone tries to find a (formerly twitter) video and ends up on xvideos instead. I could totally see a lot of non-tech-friendly people accidentally doing that, and then telling all of their friends/family that (formerly twitter) is now just full of nudity and porn.
