  • From the article:

    The #MeToo movement was the key trigger, giving rise to fiercely feminist values among young women who felt empowered to speak out against long-running injustices. That spark found especially dry tinder in South Korea, where gender inequality remains stark, and outright misogyny is common.

    In the country’s 2022 presidential election, while older men and women voted in lockstep, young men swung heavily behind the right-wing People Power party, and young women backed the liberal Democratic party in almost equal and opposite numbers.

    Korea’s is an extreme situation, but it serves as a warning to other countries of what can happen when young men and women part ways. Its society is riven in two. Its marriage rate has plummeted, and birth rate has fallen precipitously, dropping to 0.78 births per woman in 2022, the lowest of any country in the world.

    Seven years on from the initial #MeToo explosion, the gender divergence in attitudes has become self-sustaining. Survey data show that in many countries the ideological differences now extend beyond this issue. The clear progressive-vs-conservative divide on sexual harassment appears to have caused — or at least is part of — a broader realignment of young men and women into conservative and liberal camps respectively on other issues.

  • All states want you to be in the right lane if you're moving slower than traffic. You were wrong. You didn't read the PDF you posted. This isn't up for discussion.

  • You should read it. You're wrong. Most say if you're going slower than the flow of traffic, keep right. Only a couple say you have to yield to approaching traffic (Florida and Georgia).

  • Have a clear and honest conversation with your wife. "She thinks it's fine" is not enough. And know your concern and worries more clearly. For example, "The age gap is representative of an emotional maturity gap."

    And you might be right. But that doesn't matter. She need to know for herself in her own way. And she needs to feel like she can trust you to not hold it against her if they do go "wrong".

    Either way, have an emotionally honest conversation with your wife.

  • Senators up for re-election will remember if we do the following:

    1. If you have a dem senator, write to them and tell them that the leadership is out of touch with the demands of the moment
    2. If the blue incumbent in your state is retiring in 2026, run a progressive. Use this moment to draw real separation between the progressive and the establishment candidate. Make any contact between them and the democratic leadership toxic
    3. If the blue incumbent hasn't condemned this and the democratic leadership, do the same as above.

    Democrats up for reelection in 2026

    • Colorado: John Hickenlooper
    • Delaware: Chris Coons
    • Georgia: Jon Ossoff
    • Illinois: Dick Durbin (Retiring)
    • Massachusetts: Ed Markey
    • Michigan: Gary Peters (Retiring)
    • Minnesota: Tina Smith (Retiring)
    • New Hampshire: Jeanne Shaheen (Retiring)
    • New Jersey: Cory Booker (Chair of Strategic Communications Committee)
    • New Mexico: Ben Ray Lujan
    • Oregon: Jeff Merkley
    • Rhode Island: Jack Reed
    • Virginia: Mark Warner

    Flipping the senate in 2026 seems unlikely, but transforming the democratic party must start now. Schumer is up for re-election in 2028, but he has to be removed from leadership now.

  • Crazy. It was less than two months ago. Guess I am old.

  • Princess Donut.

  • Everything about this is so messed up that the incompetent, lazy cop is the least surprising part.

  • The animorphs series is getting intense.

  • Here's my comments on it being a mostly normal user of Windows.

    1. Creating a local account was a pain - 100% true. I've done it. It's annoying and it's pain to remote into as well. There's a very small set of people who care about though.
    2. Google Passkeys will not work - I have it working. I don't remember it being too difficult and put the difficulty on my inability to execute it well. Saving passkeys are easy now.
    3. An email client that really frustrated me - what in the actual fuck. This doesn't belong here.
    4. Natural scrolling is so unnatural - I don't know what this is. It's either that I use it and it's natural, I don't use it because it wasn't turned on automatically, I used it and have change my norm to fit it
    5. Ads? Are you kidding me? - I've never noticed an ad. I don't use the start menu often, but it's not never. I also use Pro so they may not be there.
    6. Save As defaults to OneDrive? Why? - This is stupid that MS does this. I get why it works for them and I can even see the reasoning for having on by default for the average user, but ask first.
    7. Windows 11 uses so many resources - Yes.
    8. Virus and threat protection - another fail for MS. This should be a no brainer.
    9. Power and battery options - It does suck that it doesn't detect that it isn't a laptop. Pretty easy fix, but it would be better if it detected it

    Three big problems if ads is becoming a thing. Three medium problems. One small, one you, and one what the fuck.
