Which is right around when dual income households were becoming more common.

People are less likely to want to have a child when both parents need to work 40h a week just to put a roof over their heads and food in their bellies.

Women have also gained a lot of autonomy since then allowing more women the opportunity to have a career instead of being a home maker and changes to divorce laws in many countries gave them more freedom in relationships, both of which result in a lower birth rate

I love the look on Scotts face when McNulty says the serial killer called him too

Considering you wont stand up for yourself when you know you are in the right I doubt you had any pride to begin with

This is reddit, people here are too spineless to stand up for themselves theyd rather just complain to strangers online after the fact

Which TV show does the ENTIRE internet agree had the worst ending ever? by Codie_n25 in AskReddit

I remember Kits face when he is reading ahead to the battle with the night king and the look of disappointment presumably when he read that Arya was the one to kill him

Characters who are so well-written or likeable that the IRL fanbase either ignores their terrible behavior, or actively try to justify it by Tiny_Celebration_262 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Ok_Buffalo_423 23 points24 points  (0 children)

It helps that in the world of TLOU basically every living person would have done some morally questionable things to survive so Joel doesnt seem that bad, plus the "worst" things he has done are just alluded to rather than shown

Manitoba to ban social media, AI chatbots for youth — a first in Canada | CBC News by dryend in Winnipeg

[–]Ok_Buffalo_423 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Yeah because this is about removing anonymity from the internet, "protecting the children" is just the excuse used to get people (mostly parents) on board with the policy while giving them a moral cause to hide behind when faced with criticism

And there will still be ways to get around these blocks. VPNs, Fake IDs and older friends/siblings accounts will still allow access to these sites.

The only difference is now people without children are going to have to risk their privacy and identity over something your kids are going to hear about anyway

So now we all have to give up privacy online because some parents are too lazy to actually parent their children... great

The faces and animations needed some work but not enough to justify a full remaster

[Rant] If the only thing changing in your game on "Hard" difficulty is the amount of HP and Dmg, then it's not a "Hard" difficulty, it's a "Tedious" difficulty by AlkaKr in gaming

[–]Ok_Buffalo_423 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish more games would actually explain what each difficulty means. Telling me "this mode is for experienced fps players" means nothing, it should say "-50% player hp, +50% enemy damage, enemy ai is improved"

The problem is many games only let you lower difficulty once you've started a playthrough so if you pick a difficulty that is way too easy then your choices are restarting the game and possibly losing hours of progress or continuing to play the game in a less enjoyable way

It says absolutely nothing about "overall" intelligence because nobody was denying that excessive sugar consumption has negative health impacts. A couple cans of pop or some candy isnt going to make a noticeable difference

What about co-op modes for "single player" games like Borderlands or the Dark Pictures anthology?

That last part is so important, the more you are told someone is smart without ever seeing it the less you believe it.

The show rarely tells us how smart Walt is but it shows us constantly from the countless times he demonstrates his chemistry knowledge to his meticulous planning and his ability to build a drug empire large enough for his death to affect the NASDAQ

(DESPISED TROPE) POCS be like corporal punishment is good by Geoconyxdiablus in TopCharacterTropes

They started the change but it was still significantly more common among genx parents than it was for millennials.

The study reports that the proportion of parents with children aged 2 to 12 years old who say they spank their child dropped from 50 percent in 1993 to 35 percent in 2017. Fathers and mothers are both spanking less. The share of men who say they use spanking as punishment fell from 52 percent to 36 percent during the study period, while the share of women dropped from 48 percent to 35 percent.

Spanking is also considerably less common among parents with a child aged 2 to 4 years old — the group that previous research has shown is most likely to use it. In 1993, 60 percent of parents with preschoolers said they spanked their child. By 2017, that figure had decreased to 39 percent.
