Seriously. I can handle being with family for a while, but would absolutely lose all will to live if I had to be near children every single day. Even more if I was actually supposed to be responsible for them. There are a lot of good reasons to not get children, the best one I have is that I just don’t want to be near them.

MBechto Games@lemmy.world•Almost 19% of Japanese people in their 20s have spent so much money on gacha they struggled with covering living expenses, survey reveals - AUTOMATON WESTEnglish50·11 hours agoI felt I was taking crazypills. In what world does this headline and article not scream "These games are ruining lives because of extremely manipulative marketing tactics.
I assume the people who took this article as a personal attack are part of the 19%, but doesn’t want to realise they have a very serious problem.
Is 2 weirder than 1? I feel like that would make more sense…
But when does the “parabola-of-acceptable-amount-of-cows-in-a-house” top out?
Asking for a friend of course…
MBechtoNyheder•[Debat]Af og til er det fint med lidt mere skam i livet [moral og velfærdssamfundets ydelser]7·14 hours agoMed chance for at lyde som et voldsomt røvhul, så synes jeg at det er meget påfaldende at det lige er en influencer der mener hun har særligt brug for hjælp i hendes suuuuper pressede dagligdag.
Hvis hun synes det er så hårdt både at være direktør i en virksomhed og være influencer, kunne hun vel starte med at droppe en af delene?
MBechto politics @lemmy.world•SHOCK POLL: AOC a Close Second Place Behind Kamala Harris in 2028 Democratic Primary31·17 hours agoI’m not saying progressives can’t run. I’m saying we need progressives who aren’t dead halfway through their presidency. i am absolutely saying AOC should run.
MBechto News@lemmy.world•Tesla speeds up odometers to avoid warranty repairs, US lawsuit claims181·17 hours agoThe people who care about such things as honesty or quality have already abandoned Tesla. The people who still wants to buy a Tesla, either still think it’s a status symbol like an Iphone in 2009, or they absolutely love being abused by a rich cunt.
It’s not going to matter for them at all.
MBechto politics @lemmy.world•SHOCK POLL: AOC a Close Second Place Behind Kamala Harris in 2028 Democratic Primary71·17 hours agoIt’s neat how you assume I didn’t hate how fucking old Biden was either?
That wasn’t my biggest issue with Biden though. My issue with Biden was that he was part of the systemic issue that’s been destroying the US democracy for decades. He didn’t mind corporations bribing the politicians. He didn’t mind people indepting themselves for the rest of their lives just to get an education. He didn’t mind the gab between the richest and the poorest. He didn’t mind going to war to serve the military industrial complex. Biden is what I would refer to as a corrupt asshole by european standards, who doesn’t give half a shit about the working class, only the interests of his rich masters.
So kindly stop assuming anyone who doesn’t support Trump, supports Biden or Harris. They’re part of the same corrupt system, designed specifically to supress the working class, and they fucking love it.
MBechto politics @lemmy.world•SHOCK POLL: AOC a Close Second Place Behind Kamala Harris in 2028 Democratic Primary91·19 hours agoIf Bernie is to be elected in 2028 he’ll be 91 by the end of his term. If he continues in 2032, he’ll be 95. That is far too fucking old to be a politician. I know his view is what USA needs and has needed for a long time, but it’s far too little too late. The window for Bernie to be president was 2016, and the american people and the democratic party fucked that up. It’s time to move on.
Instead you do exactly what they’re doing now. Bernie uses his influence with the people to give AOC a platform to make her his protege for 2028. He’s currently putting her out there as a voice of reason, and passing the torch to her.
MBechto politics @lemmy.world•SHOCK POLL: AOC a Close Second Place Behind Kamala Harris in 2028 Democratic Primary13·20 hours agoAnd she seems to have done fucking nothing since then to help the american people. No call to the streets, no speeches at the protests, nothing.
MBechto politics @lemmy.world•SHOCK POLL: AOC a Close Second Place Behind Kamala Harris in 2028 Democratic Primary14·20 hours agoI like Bernie, but no fucking way should you elect someone that old AGAIN. He can create a great platform for AOC, but even he knows it’s time for the younger crowd to get a voice.
Wouldn’t it be nice to not have a president who is very likely to die from a harsh cough for once?
MBechto Technology@lemmy.ml•‘No quick wins’: China has the world’s first operational thorium nuclear reactor13·1 day agoI only really know about this danish company. but they usually claim to be able to build a thorium reactor in a standard sized shipping container.
I may remember wrong, but IIRC they can run on the spent fuel from conventional nuclear reactors, since there’s still an incredible amount of energy left in it.
There is apparently also litterally no chance for a meltdown because it will simply shut down.
So even if we say they’re only able to produce half the amount of power that a conventional nuclear plant can do with the same footprint. It’ll still be easier to find the space for them, they’ll be better waste-wise, and also be a lot safer.

MBechtoSpillefilm og serier•To valg overrasker i castet til den nye Harry Potter-serie [sort Snape og amerikansk Dumbledore]8·3 days agoJeg vil klart blive ligeglad med det på et tidspunkt. Men hvis der skal flere minoriteter i medierne, hvilket jeg er enig i, hvorfor skal vi så smide dem ind i tilfældige roller hvor halvdelen af fans’ne bliver skuffede over det. Det gør det ikke nemmere at få fremskridt når man bevidst gør hvad man kan for at provokere nøjagtigt dem der skal overbevises om at en sort hovedrolle er okay.
MBechtoNyheder•Bøffer, benzin og flyrejser: De 10 procent rigeste danskere har et markant større klimaaftryk end dem, der tjener mindst2·3 days agoJeg har ikke rigtigt noget imod idéen om et mærkesystem. Det er begrænsende og indskrænkende, helt klart, men er det ikke også netop det der skal til for faktisk på personligt plan at kunne gøre noget? Der er vel ikke nogen der kan forvente at hvis vi alle sammen skal bidrage til den grønne omstilling, at 90% af os ikke kommer til også at få en form for livsstilsændring? Det vil naturligvis handle om balance, giver det mening kun at have 1 flyrejse om året? Eller er 6 mere rigtigt?
Jeg har bestemt ikke hele svaret, men jeg synes egentligt ikke at det er urimeligt at vi alle sammen bliver tvunget til at gå lidt på kompromis, og helst på en måde der gør at dem der fråser mest med ressourcerne skal gå mere ned i livskvalitet, indtil vi har metoder der gør det muligt at leve mere bæredygtigt. En af metoderne kunne være kvoter for sådan noget som flyrejser, privatkørsel, varer der bliver transporteret rundt om kloden 17 gange inden man selv køber det. Byggeriet har i forvejen begrænsninger på CO2 aftrykket af bygninger. Det vil ikke være umuligt at indføre på andre ting. Det vil kræve en form for overvågning af vores forbrugsvaner, så vi vil også alle sammen skulle gå på kompromis med vores privatliv (igen, igen).
Jeg har ikke noget imod at skulle gå ned i levestandard, og jeg skal sgu også gerne lade mig overvåge lidt mere, for i sidste ende handler det bare om, om vi vil blive ved med at have en beboelig planet eller ej. Des mere ubeboelig planeten bliver, des større problemer vil vi få med krige, klimaflygtninge og naturkatastrofer, der nok skal sørge for at vores livskvalitet forsvinder helt.

MBechto politics @lemmy.world•ICE deports Venezuelan teen despite reportedly knowing he was not a target96·3 days agoNot just that. He’s most likely going to die because some nazi piece of shit thought they might as well arrest him, because he’s brown. This is only the beginning, and it’s going to get a fuckload worse until they get the same treatment.
I will put those people into the “status symbol” group.
They may not give a fuck about the politics, the quality issues or being lied to, but they still want a Tesla for a reason. They could save money by buying a different car that performs equally or better. So they don’t buy it because of the price.
With no other incentive it leads me to the conclusion they want it because they think it makes them look “better” than everyone who doesn’t have one.
