I dont agree with the original commenter, but come on.

This is a thread about babies.

Do you really think people need a religion to see that throwing their dead bodies in a septic tank is an incredibly disrespectful and dehumanizing act?

I dont need to wish for a christian burial to understand the implications of christian nuns doing this.

Tell me you know nothing about buddhism without telling me you know nothing about buddhism. While we’re at it, opinions on hinduism?

Smaller religions have been sacrificing children since the stone age.

I’m not saying its all bad, but singling out two religions in your general area and blaming the problem on them being “political” as if religion isn’t based on dictating social norms is ridiculous.

I agree with the freedom to believe, though. Doesnt mean that there arent inherent dangers to this stuff. You’re in a thread about murdered babies, please keep that in mind.

No, we dont.

in the best possible way.

Dude, people looked into it and the map OP posted is literally based on medieval times.

If someone posts some medieval facts of your general area and explains that this is how things currently are over there, you’d say something too. Even if you don’t immediately have the statistics at hand.

Nuclear in Germany and Austria. The other stuff is medieval or something.

Never heard of anyone keeping the eldest son and their family around on purpose. Just one son, in the basement, maybe. Certainly not to ensure the inheritance, lol.

I get “you” and “I”. I’m still astonished that some people seem to use “we”.

i dont hate cockroaches because they’re harmful. Rats are harmful and I like them.

I hate cockroaches because they trigger my monkey-brain to throw me into fight-or-flight mode. I’m 100% certain this would get infinitely worse if one of those fuckers started flying.

feeling very opressed right now /s

i can assure you, if I could play the guitar while riding a unicycle, you’d never see me do anything else, ever again. and i do know how to ride one.

Thats an insane level of skill, guy’s got the right to brag.

I feel you, lol. To be fair, its likely that they do turn into complex hallucinations after a while. Those cartoon characters have typically spent too long in the desert sun and are dying of thirst.

i always thought that it was especially cruel that it looks like water. Damn illusion could look like anything, but no, it just has to be water.

i really want to be left alone in parks. i go there to chill, not to have some awkward dude sit down next to me and try to strike up a conversation with an obvious ulterior motive.

Just to point out how subjective the whole time-and-place thing is. Not saying someone with a lot of tact couldnt pull it off. But thats not the target demography of a post like this.

Getting to know someone through shared interests/common activities is definitely the safer route, not just for the guys.

Where you intend to stay is part of the questioning when you enter and they can get quite suspicious if you don’t have a plan. Source: An Austrian, white friend of mine who went to the US. He also just wanted to travel around but was warned in advance (by other, mostly white europeans) that he shouldn’t state that when asked. It’s just not worth the risk.

While that’s not the same as having to show hotel bookings for the whole stay, it is a thing travelers have had to worry about for quite some time now. I’m sure it’s worse and more complicated for anyone of color.

Not true everywhere, actually never heard of it here (Germany and Austria).

But if you walk into a place and ask for a paper cup of tap water, a lot of workers are willing to give it to you, regardless of the laws.

Vienna has tap water straight from the mountains btw and it tastes amazing. Recommended.

Found. The pacu fish

The first time I heard about sex from a friend, I was around 5 or 6 and went to my mom if that’s true. My mom went to the library, got some sex-ed books for kids and talked me through it. It ended up being not one single talk, but multiple, age appropriate ones spread over the years.

She didn’t do a perfect job, I’d say. There were many things left unknown and she was awkward with the topic (not an issue as a kid, certain issue as a teen).Though, considering that she got all her sex ed from magazines back in the day, definite progress on a generational scale.

I’m confident that I could do a better job than her, because she did a better job than her parents. That’s how it all works, no?

It’s a joke man.

Don’t do this to your kids if you think that was wrong, lol. I know people who grew up like this, complained to me and then started to behave the exact same way with their kids later on.

I know parents who don’t own PCs. Just phones. A bunch of working class kids are without access to a PC. Of course they’re going to be worse at it than we were. How are they supposed to learn?

It’s not like we did it because we wanted to show off our useful skills on the job market, lol.
