If you want kids there’s a few things to consider.

1. Graduate highschool then get married before kids.
2. Kids are physically easier when you’re younger.
3. No one is ever really ready for kids, but you should have some level of financial stability and be prepared to have significantly less freedom.

Be purposeful in what you spend money on. You don’t need the best of everything, especially when starting a new hobby. You can find someone spending absurd amounts on anything, but no one can do that on everything.

We used one to run power to a garage a couple times per year. It’s relatively safe if you use it right and never have power running through the cord until it’s fully plugged in.

Also, most green houses have fans that can help circulate air in from the exterior.

A large part of wine tasting is bullshit, but different styles are definitely different.

The community name is asperational, maybe someday it will be reality.

Right, women can only exist in exclusive environments.

It’s not public if you block participation.

Cars that run on old oil are basically just diesel engines. It’s also pretty easy to get a vehicle with high fuel efficiency, it’s really hard to get one that also meets emission standards and doesn’t kill you in a crash.

Reddit or Lemmy isn’t a great to lace for private communities. If you want to be restrictive of who can participate go to a service that supports it like discord. If you want people to join your X only thing that is a you problem, it’s not on everyone else to help you with it.

X only communities shouldn’t be publicly viewable.

Generations are exponential, you have 32 5th generation ancestors and 62 total. You’re less than 5% of your 5th generation ancestors.

That’s probably only true if you accept essentially irrelevant amounts of ancestry. If you take 5 generations, there’s likely at least one person 50% or more native in that family, but that would be <5% of their ancestry.

Do you happen to have ADHD? That sounds like some pretty severe executive disfunction, which is common with ADHD. You might need more than random Internet advice.

People like to support their choices. It’s not a ton different than sports. There have been periods where console and PC have had the advantage over the years, but it’s now become more of a choice of what you want your computer to look like. Mobile is generally universally hated because of the effects it had on the industry as a whole by accelerating the rise of micro transactions and loot boxes to an industry standard.

I can’t really speak for what it is like in Europe, but there’s basically three big buckets that US Christian religion falls into.

• Catholic, was (might still be) the plurality of Christians in the US. Not terribly different than the European version. Some may focus a bit more on different points, but the high level is the same. Gay is a sin, no birth control, male priests only, drinking is acceptable, forgiveness tends to be prominent.
• Protestant, this would be the Baptists, Lutherans, Methodists, Episcopalians, etc. The only thing they really have in common is that they are Catholic BUT one or two major differences. It depends on the specific organization, some take more hard line approaches, some are far more accepting. National bodies are a bit more loose than Catholicism, but still consistent. There’s a mix of reasonable and crazy people in this bucket.
• Evangelicals are the totally unhinged group. Churches in this group are non-denominational, though some may have started as a Protestant sect. They may have loose ties to other churches, or be a mega church. While there is variation here as well, it tends in the more extreme direction. Biblical interpretation tends towards the more literal and cherry picked stories instead of the relative interpretation that traditional branches have reformed to use. Grift is super common in this section. Condemnation of non followers is also common instead of outreach and forgiveness. Young earth creationism is a common belief. This group started growing rapidly with the advent of televangelism in the 70s.

They could have deals with rental companies that make the rental cheaper to them. It could be a way to save money as people won’t bother with the rental and since it’s violating company procedure, they don’t have to pay mileage reimbursement. It could be a way to funnel money to a rental company rather than directly reimbursing employees.

Ads are extremely effective in aggregate though it’s difficult to impossible to assign value to any individual ad. Targeted ads are popular because they are more directly attributable to purchases, but it’s also likely that other ads led you towards that decision as well.

There’s nothing quite like today. There’s things that are similar, but social media has really made things worse.

Populism is rising because things haven’t been great for a lot of people for a long time, and it’s too hard to ignore anymore. Globalism and free trade were massively oversold to the masses, it hurt wide swaths of people that have been ignored for decades. People that feel disenfranchised will vote for change regardless of the change proposed.

Social media has escalated everything as well. The echo chambers are enormous and essentially impossible to avoid. Many traditional institutions are also extremely weak now that would have forced more interaction between people with differing views and limited extremism. Social media also does a great job in conflating the size of various groups and beliefs, a few dozen people can make a community seem as large and impactful as a few thousand .

Healthy is relative. A handful of fruit is generally fine. Eating a few pounds of grapes in a day is probably a bad choice. There’s also a lot of people that conflate fruit with things that have fruit in them as about the same.

A tonneau cover still lets you load a pallet of something or a scoop of something in the back.
