I said probably because I didn't know for sure, but damn, I didn't know how far off I was! Do you happen to know whether Europe and richer Asian countries are similar?

Edit: just saw the link has some examples Edit 2: this says the average American tho, not the average middle class American. Averages will usually be heavily skewed by outliers, ie the super rich

But to add: the average human is consuming waaaaay less than their fair share of resources. Even the average middle class westerner probably is, and they're already consuming a whole lot more than average. The planet and environment could sustain a lot more people more comfortably if there weren't a few obscenely excessive consumers, ie the richest of the rich. That's probably a better fix than shaming the average Joe for wanting to have kids.

To preface I think reproduction is a very personal choice and right that we shouldn't force on or take away from anyone ever.

But let me ask you this: the planet we live on is finite. It's not getting bigger and its resources aren't getting more. Is infinite growth of population (or anything else, for that matter) possible here? Or will this system eventually collapse?

Very little tho. And it's what they said as well as a common belief

That's not how they make fizzy drinks, they directly add the CO2. The acid thing is a myth, you'd just get very sour and weird tasting water with the slightest bit of gas since that process is too slow to be viable for this use.

Looked it up out of curiosity and apparently that cant happen, at least not permanently. Worst thing that can happen is that you form too strong an association between the object and arousal for them to be seperate.

This is such a pet peeve of mine. My mum wanted me to watch GoT with her in German but I just couldn't because the translated the last names. Jon Snow was Jon Schnee which is the literal German translation of snow and it's such a mismatch with English sounding last names.

I mean that one doesn't cause health issues so I'd recommend it over q-tipping ears

You'd probably like molly. I'm adhd and I get all chill but I still get the heightened sensory pleasure so it's like imagine the cosiest blanket you've ever had to touch. Asphalt is about twice as cosy. Now cuddling up in bed is perfect bliss.

Both tbh

That sounds like an amazing time. That zesty crunchiness just hits the spot sometimes.
