I hate to direct you to reddit, but theres a sticky on r/childfree that has state by state resources on doctors who will preform the procedure with minimum questions asked. Many of the places are for women, but they do include ones for men as well. It does say that you have to use a web browser and cannot access the list from the app.

This was more my take. I mean, like women just sat there and said, "Whelp, there's nothing to do. Let's just take care of the kids." It's not some natural evolution. And, for all the people studying the past (in the past) to just be like, "Men hunt, women gather," is ignoring how women ended up in those roles in the first place. The fact that they needed "evidence" of this is, before comming to that conclusion is...disappointing, but not surprising.

Crap. They just took it from somewhere else and passed it off as their own. Jerk.

Edit: But then why is this even being debated?

My SO has a theory that if the group of people lived in a harsh environment, ie. having to work for what you had with no guarantee of food or safety, etc, it was common for women to work just as much as men. Such a society needed all hands on deck, so to speak. But, when we start becoming "civilized", and things started getting made for us, (as opposed to an individual making it themselves.) Women and men start having diverging roles. Essentially, there's just not enough work, so womens role turns into raising the babies, to fill the time. Eventually, for whatever reason, "civilized" society just forgot about the hard times and assumes women have always been there just to raise babies.

Disclaimer: This is based on absolutely nothing. Maybe some random information that explain that women did "men" jobs too, once. Idk.

First year after we moved in, we decorated, bought candy, the whole nine yards. No one came. Next year we bought a smaller bag of candy, and ate it all ourselves. Left a bowl of candy out about 6 or 7 years later, after more kids started appearing on the street. Still not a one.

There's a bunch of kids on the street, and a few people do put up some nice decorations, but we found out that everyone either does this trunk or treat thing at the church at the front of the community, or goes downtown, where they block off the streets and all the big houses decorate and have movies in their yard and stuff.

Really, it stems from having a bunch of old phones, bought outright, sitting around collecting dust. Some are obviously too old to be relevant, but there's a couple that had some great features that kept degrading with the next iteration. HTC front speakers, galaxy camera, a headphone jack, and an SD card slot.

I used to take apart things like my dads old portable handheld TV, or my walkman, after I broke it, to see if I could fix it. It was hit or miss.I got the TV speakers to work again, but I had to get a new walkman. I drew the line at microwaves. But I see these phone breakdowns videos, and it looks kinda simple. I realize that there's a ton of things going on beyond my (admittedly low) skill set, but wondered how far beyond. Like, was it something I could learn in a reasonable way, or was it just too much.

Seems like it's wayyyy, far, over my head.

Well that seems like more effort than it's worth... I figured the biggest issue would be fitting it into the phone, but that sounds like least of the worries.

I mean it shouldn't have to come this, but I wonder what would happen if all the women in these states just started wearing chasitiy belts, that they hold the key to. It only comes off if they feel comfortable. There has to be some sort of long wearing material by now.

Nah. Seasickness doesnt make you shit your pants. Depending on who you are, you may pee yourself a little, though.

When I was in my late teens, I ended up on a boat from Ft Lauderdale to the Bahamas. Theres no way no to go through just a little bit of the Burmuda Triangle. I remember freaking out / being super excited, wondering what crazy stuff things would happen on our journey. Of course, nothing happened. I was so disillusioned.

From the article:

A WIRED investigation shows Kofsky is also the person posting as PsychoticMammal. The account has posted personal details that precisely match Kofsky’s résumé, and has linked to a little-followed Instagram account dedicated to photos of Kofsky wearing preppy outfits. A review of publicly available material from data breaches provided by Constella Intelligence shows that Kofsky’s personal email address was used to set up a “PsychoMammal” account on a photography site. Furthermore, the PsychoticMammal name was used on Poshmark by a user whose avatar is a photo of Kofsky. It was also used on Tumblr by someone who linked to—and claimed as his own—a Blogspot maintained by a user named Aaron Kofsky, who posted personal details that match details of Kofsky’s biography.

Apparently, this guy left a huge trail... Edit: plus data breaches...
