Our society is so incredibly two-faced when it comes to this.

Make parenting and absolute ballbuster, but also grief people for opting out. We went the wrong direction on both ends. We need to help parents but also be more accepting of childfree.

GPS app that gave more control over routing. You can use waypoints, but the ETA is based on the waypoint instead of destination, and you have to manually continue navigation once you reach the waypoint.

I hate hearing a recording of my voice. It is a lot different compared to how I think I sound.

This has a very “facts don’t care about your feelings” kinda vibe

The intent is too present snippets of information over a period of time and allow them to connect the dots.

My theory here is that people have to want to make a change. This is similar to how you can't make a smoker stop smoking, they have to want it. Trying to needle someone into changing will often just cause them to clam up.

I'm vegan and don't tell people to stop eating meat, because that often elicits a hostile reaction. I instead present reasons why they shouldn't eat meat and allow them to reach a conclusion. And yes, I do this with the understanding that most people will never make the change. But if the presented information doesn't get them to change, then I doubt anything I say will either. I'm not exactly known for my charisma, charm, or my debate skills. Devolving into an argument isn't what I'm trying to achieve.

And if you haven't seen videos of flash flood events, many people don't understand how quickly these can become an imminent threat. We can be talking about a matter of just a few minutes.

I tend to just present information, but without trying to argue a point. Just a "here's the information" and see what they do with it. Then I go from there.

Edit: Warning! Sealion detected. Proceed with caution.

We're cooked. They keep talking about "end of century" or 2050. But this is happening right now.

Is there a practical reason for deporting migrants to countries that they are not from? Or is this another case of "cruelty is the point?"

As an example: luxuries have gotten cheaper while essentials have gotten more expensive.

Message unclear. No really, what an absolute mess.
