Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Get vasectomies/bisalps while you still can. Even if you think you might want kids later.

Bisalp is permanent, vasectomy is not. In case anyone was wondering.

Vasectomy reversals aren't a guaranteed thing (source: got snipped last month and they reiterated that over and over as part of their informed consent)

Yeah I think the procedure where they clog up the penis haver's vas deferens is easier to reverse. It's called RISUG.

Unfortunately it doesn't serve the pharmaceutical industy in recurring purchases so it doesn't seem very easy to access.

I got mine about 6 months after our 2nd was born. It takes no time to perform, and you'll recover in at most 48 hours.

Why? Have kids and raise them to be communists so they can be dragon slayers. My daughter wasn’t planned but by God I’m going to give her every bit of love, support, and wisdom that I never got. She’s being raised as a good communist and I know she will grow to pass it on to others. Is it tough being a parent right now? Yes, absofuckinglutely, but being anti-natalist is in some way pretty anti-communism. You want our villages to grow? You want good communities? You want a better future? Raise those children to be dragon slayers and give them knowledge than fascists cannot take advantage of.

It is in the interest of the Democratic Party that their stated goals are never achieved, lest they have nothing to campaign on. How can you sell someone medicine if they aren’t sick? The Republicans do them a favor by making the country sicker and sicker.
