I think having kids when you’re in your early 30s is the way to go but having kids at any age is great. I think waiting until later is a mistake because you want a full life with your kids and ideally you can bless your parents with grandkids (they most likely want one, even if they say they don’t). But not having kids because you “waited too long” is a bigger mistake.

Kids take a lot of energy but they also give you a lot, no matter the age. We are biologically hardwired to rise to the challenge of having kids no matter the age.

0% chance European investigators find renewables at fault.

Have you seen the photos? The situation is out of control. Cops were hiding under bridges while their cars are destroyed by rocks and Molotov cocktails. It’s a shitshow.

Jan 6 was also not ok. I’m good with lethal force to protect federal buildings and federal workers.

Nice try.

ICE agents are deporting people here illegally. I don’t see anything wrong with that.

Newsome wont do enough to protect federal buildings. He doesn't care.

This is the reason these protests are/were actually peaceful in Texas.

They're not being deployed to quell protests they're being deployed to guard federal buildings from protesters.

Closing down schools two years for covid will do that

The US isn’t making most NATO members in Europe not hit their defense spending targets.

The “allies” aren’t even hitting their NATO spend targets and probably haven’t ever. Beef up their military and the US doesn’t have to stop policing their world so much (currently the US is keeping European shipping open by bombing Houthis nonstop).

Agreed. Europe has been mooching off US military spend for decades. I also wouldn’t expect Denmark has the military capability to hold Greenland in a war.

Slippery slope argument is a fallacy

Go to Europe and say/tweet mean things about specific groups and you will be locked away. Go to the US and support MS-13 and terrorist organizations and you will be locked away. These are not the same level of Orwellian.

The fearmongering is outrageous. Life goes on in the US and not much has changed. Unless you are joining terrorist gangs or openly supporting known terrorists organizations you will be fine, just like all my German, French, Spanish, Indian, Mexican, Iranian and whatever else neighbors I have are.

As long as OP is not an MS-13 gang member he will be fine.

Tiktok is clearly the worst of all due to incredibly high usage among kids. And being controlled by the Chinese government is clearly problematic.

Between TikTok and fentanyl China is covertly doing serious damage to the USA, and most people don't care.

Are there any conservative leaders that the media doesn't call "far right"?

Oops that was a typo. Yes 2024 levels. Market is unbelievably overvalued anyways.

They EU has a tariff on literally anything that comes in called the Commons Customs Tariff.

Most countries have tariffs on the US. The media would have us believe Americans are the first ones to ever do it.

EU and many other counties have already had tariffs on the US for a long time.

EU has already had tariffs on US goods for a long time.

Despite the media tantrum the market only dropped back to early 2024 levels at the most.

Yeah cause those are already sanctioned...

LLMs are basically just good at sourcing ideas from the internet. Me thinks this just means that this tariff idea exists on the internet, especially since grok, chatgpt, etc all come up with the same idea. We used to not have income taxes and funded the govt with tariffs so this probably isn't a new concept despite media outlets pretending like it is.

>each country will impose equivalent taxes on the import of US goods

Many of these countries already have tariffs on U.S. goods. The EU has a 25% tariff on US agricultural, chemical, and some manufactured products.

Would love to know what your country's tariffs are on the US.
