"Passenger" typically means a person who is not the driver.

I don't think so either but unfortunately Trump and his fellow narcissists are still there.

Not sure what it has to do with trans people though.

I've always just been taught to use boiling/hot water and scrub it, dry it immediately after, and then put some oil on it so it doesn't get dry. Never had any issues.

Difference being that unlike sexual orientation, desire to have children is something that can be affected quite a lot by just situational circumstances. I'm glad to hear that it worked out well for you, but there are plenty of people who have either wanted or not wanted children when young who have ended up changing their minds, to my knowledge there's never been an instance of anyone changing their sexual orientation.

Properly used condoms are incredibly effective at preventing pregnancies and have the additional advantage of reducing the spread or STDs, there's no need to take an irreversible decision quite yet.

One advantage is that they are usually much easier to clean, stains that soak into regular fabric can often just be wiped off from leather, however I do believe it's usually about leather having a more "premium feel".

At least Croatian, so I'd assume other balkan languages as well as potentially Czech and Slovak would use it. I think Latvian does as well.

There is a lot of overt racism.

Because not as many people were on the internet, the technological and social landscape is completely different today compared to twenty years ago.

Moderation has also pretty much always been part of the internet in some degree, I don't believe that the internet being enshittified has nearly as much to do with the presence of moderation, good or bad, as it does with fundamental problems with the constant monetization inherent in capitalism and the adaption of social media influence and recruitment strategies by the far right.

The spam isn't just for things that are savory. The spam can be for unsavory things, propagandizing, griefing, or advertising outright illegal things.

I don't want to have to wade through a shit ton of nazi bullshit or ads for whatever is the silk road replacement nowadays in order to take a beat after work to read shitposts. Dealing with inane stupidity shouldn't be the bar for what people have to put up with to interact with each other.

Found my partner on Hinge as well, so it kind of per definition isn't useless. That being said, I don't think one should invest too much time and energy into it since online dating can be incredibly emotionally and mentally draining.

The "both sides" argument is one of the fascists' favorite ways to inspire voter apathy, maybe take a second to think about harm reduction instead of focusing only on your own moral superiority.

Also, I'm not American, I have never voted in a US election.

To remind people that their actions have consequences and that they need to take an active role in the democratic process if they want to preserve it.
