Forcing an unwanted birth doesn’t lead to a fulfilling life for the parent or the kid
We should also start penalizing people who have miscarriages right? Since that is essentially manslaughter then (I hope you get that this is a joke, just like your stance on abortion)
Haha, holy crap, yeah, that was me a very, very long time ago. Several lifetimes ago it feels. 🙂 I still have a few long term friends from xdo, but I don’t really game with them much anymore.
lol! Holy shit and so random. I doubt you knew me on DAoC, but I was on Hibernia/Nimue when you all played Midgard.
I played a Lurikeen nightshade name Cyno and then a Celt valewalker named Chaka. I was in smaller guilds mostly, but TPG did recruit me for a short time.
Dude, I think I remember your Keen NS Cyno on Nimue. :) Crazy how small of a community this stuff is sometimes. :) Awesome to see some familiar faces on Lemmy.
How’ve things been since then? I’m sure you’ve lived a similar amount of lifetimes hah. Who knew we’d all end up getting old, just like everyone else before us? :)
Such a small world, even on the internet! I’ve only ever seen this name and spelling this way from gaming and thought I’d ask.
Things are great for me! In my 40s, but still feeling young. Can’t game as much because married with kid and dogs, but I do from time to time. Getting hard to be competitive without those twitch reactions. Ha!
Ah, glad to hear it! 40s are the new 30’s or something they tell me. :)
Same here for the most part. Almost in my mid 40’s, got married to a player named Farah/Firah (we were dating before we started playing DAoC though to be fair), sadly things didn’t work out, got divorced in my 30’s, then remarried recently in my 40’s and we’re just enjoying life. No kids, 1 dog, 2 cats sort of thing.
I’ve been a software engineer most of my life, and now I manage/run a few teams of them at a large enterprise. Looking to get out of B2B here soon and take a stab at my lifelong dream: Making video games. Hoping to do that next year. I’ve been working with an Indie shop on my own time for the last couple years and we’ve released a couple games on Steam/Epic, so going to take a stab at doing that for realsies. ;)
In terms of gaming, lol, yeah man. I’m losing to one kid after the other nowdays haha. I got into WoW for a bit, like everyone, but ultimately I just play casual games like Overwatch(2) and Genshin Impact (Would not recommend that one, hah, I play for family mostly). Just trying to get back into the swing of things and find that enjoyment of gaming I feel like I lost so long ago.
I love that we’re having this little conversation in the midst of a thread about politics. 😂
That’s awesome and I’m glad to read that things are working out for you! Being childless can be pretty nice to do what you want and invest in your partner. Pets are always nice. Our kitty passed April 1, 2020 (awful date). We have 2 Shiba Inus now after our other shiba passed 2 years ago.
I’m happy to hear that you’re looking to pursue your passion and I wish you the best of luck! I do SEO for two major child care companies (national and international), but want to switch careers to either IT or front end web development or full stack (eventually). I just need to really think this through and start on a path.
As for games, I’ve been engaged with Baldur’s Gate 3 and HellDivers 2 mostly lately. I am big into D&D now and play in a campaign and then DM two others. What games have you worked on? I’d love to try one out!
Mars exists for a reason and earth can hold up to about 11b people and for miscarriage it’s not like abortion where you take medication and it kills the baby miscarriage is smth that happens that no one can prevent if it happens
Mars is not your backyard that by planting a patch of grass and watering it will turn the whole planet into a lush grassland. And speaking of abortion, how many orphans have you adopted so far?
Yeah no matter what some rich assholes want to convince everyone, 8 billion is already to much. Imagine every city becoming 25 percent more crowded everywhere. Just no.
The laws criminalizing abortion also effectively criminalize miscarriages because of the way they investigate things and the fact that dilation and evacuation/curettage is frequently needed for miscarriages that occur after 10 weeks or so. The conservatives in question will refuse to accept that the fetus died in utero without any intervention and prosecute women that have to have dead fetal tissue removed to prevent sepsis, save their lives, and preserve future fertility if that’s what they want.
Abortion is murder

Today random, but you’re not Tyfud from XdO are you?

What’d you play? 🙂

How about yourself?

By that logic, so is jerking off. Hell, sex us murder because millions of seeds will die without being able to have a full, fruitful life…
Hell, not jerking off is a death penalty crime because your body will kill and reabsorb millions of sperm cells!
Should we all get the death penalty now?
And state sanctioned killings are not?
You people have very flexible morals when it suits you.
Your logic is sound, but it’s a waste for this.
Allow me to use the same amount of brain power in my rebuttal as you used in your argument:
No.
Another day, another fascist account to block
With the population growing the way it is, we should honestly be encouraging more abortions.

You’re both delusional, and an idiot.

We finally agreed on smth rich people are assholes

You need to go back on your meds
Objectively isn’t
