    There has *literally* been people in mental institutes because they wouldn't perform their "wifely duties" with their arranged marriage husband. Think about that one for a second.
    "I got a headache today."
    "Hmm, that's what my last wife had before I put her in the mental institute for the rest of her brief life…"
    Other reasons: Didn't want to work, didn't want to marry, so on and so forth. There was a period where anything other than "what the husband/father said to do" meant you got put into closed door mental "healthcare" and experimented on.

    One of the grossest things about the Fallout image photoshop is that they're violating Ella Purnell's real figure. She's a slim woman, not a super curvaceous one! So they're literally saying "this absolutely gorgeous woman, who is also super lean and fit like the media tells women they're all suppose to be, is STILL not good enough because she can't magically also have a big round ass, in a survival jumpsuit." Like if it had been from the front they would probably be "fixing" her boobs, cause she doesn't have huge cleavage either. We all know if the show had chosen a curvier woman for the part they'd be fat shaming her and "fixing" her waist and thighs. These actors are real people.

      Yeah I don't follow movies or TV anything but there's a line between "fixing" a fictional animated or drawn character and "fixing" a real life person by hypersexualizing her. There's something wrong with people that think that's ok because that's really gross, like that's a real person you're publically shaming and harassing, if it ain't already a crime, it should be because just, ew

    The zombie cicadas thing works like this: the fungus infects one cicada. This cicada's hind parts shrivel up and are replaced by the fungus's spores (its gonads are gone at this point). However, the fungus also affects the cicada's brain and makes it a) believe that nothing's wrong and b) hypersexual (also bisexual, it will behave like the opposite sex to get that booty). So it will be trying to mate with as many other cicadas as possible... and because the body part that it uses to try and mate is now replaced by the fungus's spores, the other cicadas get infected.
    Important to note: Just like the cordyceps fungus so often referred to in zombie movies, this fungus cannot infect humans, or even mammals.

    So, the whole thing about Voter ID and racism comes from a couple of factors in the US:
    1) The states with the highest Black population are among the poorest in the US
    2) Those same states go out of their way to poorly run social services, with only one or two licenscing places open for a state whose area is comparable to the UK. Said licensing places are in the wealthier (read: white) parts of the state
    3) Said states now require IDs to vote.
    To get said IDs, poor and disproportionately black voters have to take hours of their time out of a day to go to a poorly run licenscing location that has limited hours in areas of the state that are less than hospitable to folks with skin tone darker than David Bowie.

      It's actually derived from the way Jewish people decide when Passover is. (Which is why sometimes Easter and Passover fall on the same weekend and sometimes they don't.) So not pagan in the common meaning of the word - but I'd say that the ancient Judaism and even medieval Christianity can be, in a way, closer to an ancient paganism than to contemporary religous displays, because all the agriculture based societies were closer to each other than to us.

Not so much when they're 80. Only 3 presidents of the last 120 years were under 50. That's 3 out of 20. So while the actual limit is 35, the realistic limit is higher.

Clothes don't hang sucked to the body. Even famously figure hugging fabrics like latex, lycra and spandex are subject to a little thing called gravity. In fact, the only costume I can think of to date that really *achieved* a figure hugging quality was on Star Trek Voyager, for the character Seven of Nine. The construction of her costume was gravity defying and everyone was obsessed with finding out how her costumer did it. Turns out the construction of it was a clever use of hooks and sculpting and forms and is uhhhhh ... expensive. A lot of a shows budget goes into costumes and most cannot or will not spend that much money on such high calibre artistry.

      There is actually a phenomenon related to this that people have dubbed the "roach wife". It's named after someone getting so incredibly horny whilst reading Kafka's Metamorphosis and growing so conditioned by their own idea of lust that the two conflate into one thing, and actual people are no longer attractive: he must picture the roach to be able to register it as horny.
      Anime and Video game characters growing so extreme and exaggerated that they are completely unrealistic are only making that phenomenon more common, and more recognisable as they keep exaggerating more and more to get the same affect.

But if the company does under water welding that can be 60-80 an hour sometimes. If you don't see the problem here I'll try to explain it. You're forcing a company owner who potentially does some of these harder jobs to be paid less than if they just worked the job themselves. Meaning that anyone who actually has skills never would want to be a higher up, making ALL management shitty management. And I think welding is a tame example, let's not mention the brain surgeon vs janitor salary. It's just not pheasible at all to do this and would lead to more tax evasion and less knowledgeable people in higher up positions WHO WE NEED in higher up positions.

All of my friends were getting singles except me, so I had to find a roommate through the student life office. They had me fill out a profile for others to look at, and I looked through other people's profiles to see if I wanted to reach out to anyone to see if they would want to room with me. There weren't many profiles for me to look at, but nearly 90% of them had a note at the bottom where the person wrote in that they didn't want to room with any black or latina people. I'm pasty white, so I'm sure they would have been fine with me, but sure as hell knew I wasn't going to get along with them.

      As life expectancy goes up, the age limit needs to go up with it. Genetics and lifestyle choices play a huge factor too.

      If we applied this principle to everyone, we could let people retire and access their pensions at a fair age, instead of forcing the same retirement age on everyone when some people have decades of good life left and other people die before they get to retire.

    Concerning the rent stuff, at least in the US, a lot of the management companies are driving up rent and they don’t care if people leave because they’re able to charge more at their other properties. It’s been revealed that some states are using a program for all of the landlords to charge maximum rent costs across the board. There are lawsuits going on to stop this but it really depends on if the administration will step in to protect renters.
    Another purpose for keeping buildings empty is that people can basically hide their wealth from being taxed in this way.

This shit’s genuinely horrific and I can’t believe the number of people I used to know back then who never got out of the pipeline and are now alt-right conspirators.

    29:59 the stereotype is a good example of right wing misunderstanding of how statistics work.
    See, there was a census category at one point about parents' marital status, which recorded a lot of unmarried mothers. And a lot of unmarried father's.
    The chuds read the part about mothers and decided to extrapolate, without qualitative data, that this was an indication of a higher number of SINGLE mothers.
    Which it isn't.
    Black people in the USA, on average, are poorer. Well known fact.
    Well, it costs quite a bit to get married, and those tax benefits actually tend to hurt you if you're too poor, so less black couples were/are inclined to marry than white couples.
    These were two parent households, with a higher number of unmarried couples, and it was (probably intentionally) misinterpreted as being a higher percentage of single mothers. There was no question or category relating to unmarried relationships on the census at that time.
    Various racist old men then took that idea and made trashy tv shows where they played up the infidelity of the black community, in the US and in countries outside of it like Australia and the UK.

      (there are also other factors with a smaller deterrent effect on black people in regards to marriage, such as location and availability of marriage registers etc. but that's the most cited factor in choosing to stay unmarried, economic pressure)

      (also the stereotype of the hypersexual black is an old one going right back to the transatlantic slave trade and the myths white people told to keep eachother afraid of black men and to justify their treatment of black women, and definitely played a huge role in the way that statistical misinterpretation was formed and why it was so readily accepted)

      Can confirm in Australia if you're welfare dependent, marrying is almost always economic suicide. It's one of the reasons why disabled people find it impossible to live a "normal" life - if the government even thinks the person you share a home with is your partner, they'll slash your living allowance and remove most of your professional care supports because your assumed partner is now supposed to have a job that pays enough to support you financially and also be your full-time in-home carer for things like showers or meals if you can't manage those for yourself.
      Likewise if you're a single mother and find a new partner, the government will make you beg him for grocery money and your older kids' education expenses (that aren't his kids) because if you have a partner, you're supposed to be his financial responsibility now - whether he can afford that or not.

    University student from Sweden here! Apologies for possible misspelling and grammar.
    Just thought I would shed some light on how university and loans work in my country.
    Attending a university in sweden is compleatly free for anyone who lives in the EU or the European Economic Area (EEA). You also don´t have to buy books for classes as they often can be found in the university library. However having your own books is often easier and then you´d have to pay for them yourself.
    To be able to afford to live you do not NEED to have a job, since there is a specific loan you can take. We have a state agency which only exists so that students can take loans (and grants) with a really low interest (1,23 % for 2024). The loan ofcourse has to be payed back but NOT the grants. The grants typically 1/3 of the total amout a student gets every month. The total amount is just above 13k in SEK (or just below 1k in pounds).
    I hope you found this information interesting! ^^
    Btw Jamie make sure you paying of your actual debt and not just the interest, just a tip

      As a university student from Norway, it works very similarly here :) Only differences I would note is that there is tution costs but it isnt more than 600 NOK each semester (At least that's what my university does and it isn't private). You can often borrow the books you need from the libaries, but if you are taking courses that aren't the most popular ones the liberary might have very few copies, so a lot of people do pay for either new books or second hand ones. The amount the student loan gives the student each month (if they are a fulltime student) is about 9k NOK. The first month of the semesters the student will get more. A lot of people do end up working part-time tho to be able to afford rent and food, as 9k per month often doesn't cover everything living in this expensive country. A nice thing about the loan is that if the student ends up in a situation that results in them not being about to work (disability, injury) they wont have to pay. I'm guessing Sweden does that too.

    I could not agree more about the education part. When I finished college I had 3 degrees with a license included in one of them, and was one semester away from my bachelor's but had to drop out do to burn out & costs. However, up until my current job I could not find any jobs in my fields of study because they all wanted like 1+ years of experience & it's like: How is someone supposed to get experience if they can find work in that field? I ended up having to work for 2 years in jobs that could have gotten before even finishing high-school just to get into my current job. Absolutely makes zero sense for jobs to never or rarely hire people who are fresh out of school. I mean isn't that supposed to be the whole point of why entry lvl jobs exist? So that people fresh out of high-school or college can gain experience to get those positions that require more experience

    I’m an ex-Catholic and ex-conservative. They are both evil cults, and every single moment of my life now is spent trying to undo the harm I caused by parroting their horrible rhetoric. It hurts even more now that I’ve embraced my identity as Trans. I feel genuinely disgusted with my past self, and all I can do is promise to work hard every single day to be better. People can change, but it is such a painful, intimate, and difficult process; I think most people will never willingly do it because of that.

    The answer to the question as to why the UK (and the US) like to gatekeep education, is so so the elite can uphold the status quo. Compared to countries on the European mainland, for example, it is a lot harder to get into university, especially if you aren't from a wealthy background and haven't gone to schools that really prime you for the application process, but once in, the overall level is shockingly low compared to the application standards.
    Compare that to a country like the Netherlands, where I did my undergrad, if you have the right pre-qualifications at pass grade, you can pick any university course you like (there are a few exceptions, such as medicine), and that's where the work starts. 5.5 out of 10 is a pass mark, but that usually equates to 60% or in some cases 70 or 80%. The system is a lot more flexible, less money-driven on the part of students (tuition is about €2,500 a year), but you have to pass a certain number of modules in your first year to be allowed to stay on the course. Whilst no system is perfect, you see a lot more social-economic mobility, but that is by no means the goal of the ones in power in the UK.

    Also, if people are paid more for the crappier jobs they'll probably give better customer service due to having a better relationship with their work. It won't be "Oh god, I have to go in for my shift at the crap place that doesn't pay me enough anyway..." It'll be more likely to be "Welp, time to go to work but at least I'm earning enough so I'm not all stressed out about it."
    These kinds of people are always whining about poor customer service but never accept that it's due to poor customers.

    Yeah, the thing about rent and that is totally accurate. The local public library were forced to vacate their premises because the owner raised the rent of the place to an untenable level. The spot where the local library used to be has stood empty ever since while the new location is crap, but affordable.
