A few decades ago, a Man could work 40 hours a week and support a spouse and kids on a single income. Then Women starting entering the workforce. Which resulted in real wages going down as the labor supply doubled. Women entering the workforce should have allowed Men to work less hours. Instead, we have a situation where everyone is working and kids getting neglected. Halving the workweek would once again allow a 40 hour workweek to support a family. Where 2nd and 3rd wave feminism failed is they ignored the economic consequences of women entering the work force. When you double the size of the labor pool it cuts the value of the labor pool in half. It is basic supply and demand. This created an economic injustice that can only solved by a 4th wave of feminism. The conservative wave. Many people in the country work bullshit jobs that either create no value or actively harm society. What is the point of telemarketers? What is the point of secretaries in a world were calendar apps
In recent years I've seen some disgusting and really idiotic and immature behavior from certain individuals who REALLY should know better.
It is not okay to beat up a person because of who they voted for.
It is not okay to spit in the food of a customer because of who they voted for.
It is not okay to threaten murder or ask for the death of children because of who they support.
It is not okay to try and ban/deplatform people who haven't violated terms of service, just because of who they voted for.
It is not okay to smash other people's windows, light people's cars on fire, or throw trash on the street because of who someone voted for.
Leave children behind. by BeardedLuckDragon, journal
Leave children behind.
My homies told me when the "No child left behind" policy was instituted they purposefully failed to prove a point. I say go back to leaving kids behind, it's better for society as a whole. In the mid and late 1980's we left kids behind and it happened once or twice in grade school. That's 6 classes * 30 students on average = 180 students - [1:2] students == [178:179] students that graduated elementary school on time, which is plenty. No child left behind == I'll pass you if you breath for four years straight. What next, outright brain socialism? If you're smarter than everyone else, you have to do their homework and they get to go party on the playground. "Johnny you're a real loser", used to be an insult, now it's grounds for a participation trophy.

Bring back dodge ball and other violent sports.
Our children have become weak sauce. Proceed to throw balls at them until told otherwise. Cripple kids == very bad. Bloody grass stained kids == efficient. Live a life of fear == stupid, so stupid. Fear your father == you had better.
Don't use social media to ruin your marriage. by BeardedLuckDragon, journal
Don't use social media to ruin your marriage.
In my opinion, social media is a virus that distracts you, and noticed that it gave everyone the excuse to dump their partner and go date their seventh grade sweet heart. My blog at least acknowledges that is is like pissing against the wind in Texas. An excuse for me to monologue into a virtual mirror, with wild delusions that this blog will change the world. It won't. It may spread laughter, which is better than mass murder.
or Callarts... or whatever the hell that asinine style is called: Go fuck yourself! You know the style I'm talking about. You see it in shit like Steven Universe, We Bare Bears, and that Gumball thing. I swear to god nothing screams "Vapid Tumblr Moron" than this half-assed Groening Impersonation.
PSA: You're free to make anything you want. by Spaztique, journal
PSA: You're free to make anything you want.
Remember, you're allowed to make anything you want, pursue any project you desire, write in any which way you believe works best for you, and nobody can tell you otherwise.
Of course, not all things work out, but you're still free to pursue anything you want. For example, everything has a target audience and community demographics: you're free to pursue whatever you want, but just remember that some things are harder to market to people than others. In this case, you'll have to go the extra mile to find your niche audience. Just because something is harder to market doesn't mean you can't pursue it.
Sometimes you'll make something that does

HOW NOT TO SET UP YOUR USER PAGE
I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings but some of you people need to figure this site out more before posting into every little gadget they have on this site...particularly the new people and young ones.
DA is trying to streamline the site so people can balance their interests across a page- literally. Whenever I go on my thank you trips to people who fav my work I inevitably encounter these horrible long user pages- I swear to God this is what makes the mouse break!!!!!!!
Here is an example based on a real journal- I obviously took out the identifying information but kept all the headers and approximated the space used just so I could get

Bite it you scum sucking fucking whores
Howdy, I understand that some people on this site are completely fucking stupid and unable to understand that others have differing opinions on your favorite shit, so I'll explain it to you.
Not everyone likes what you like. Some people are more aggressive about it. Deal with it. Don't cry about it and call them a troll, don't get your edgythehedgehog friends to attack them, and don't spend your time arguing with them. Let it be. Quit being fucking moronic. Not everyone will like your shit. Deal with it. Go cry in a corner away from the world and when you're ready to come back and be a man, we'll be waiting. Maybe you'll learn a lesson or tw
