Two parent reproduction leads to better adaptability. Asexual reproduction leads to the offspring being genetic copies of the parents, which is great if the parent fits well to the environment it is in, but any change to that environment could be catastrophic and lead to the species dying out. With two genetic sources, it allows for greater deviation in the species. So if there is a change in the environment, some will die, but there is a higher likelihood of some individuals being able to adapt better and survive in the changing environment.

Wait, but I thought men hated "gold diggers"? And also, that's the result of our fucked up late stage capitalism economic system and not how things should work. A young couple should be able to afford to live comfortably and have children if they want.

Oh 100%. I knew a guy that was my age, that was always trying to date younger, because no women our age would deal with his bullshit. So... I guess I do understand, huh.

Yep. And that's most of these right wing "debaters" do. They talk fast, with as much authority and confidence they can muster, try to make people feel stupid for not seeing the world the way they see it, and then moving on before they get called out for the bull shit they spew.

You really should look more into Mormonism. Calling Mormonism Christianity is like calling Islam Christian. Both believe the old and new testament the same as Christians, but both also have their own book they view as an extension and put a lot more focus on that book. Muslims have the Quran, mormons have the book of Mormon. And a lot of Mormon beliefs are heretical to most, if not all, denominations of Christianity.

As a trans person, I can't go to the bathroom aligning with my gender in some states, and going to the other bathroom can get my assaulted or worse. Trump made getting a passport with my correct gender marker tricky, if not impossible. Trans minors can't receive any healthcare related to being trans. They have already been talking about repealing the right for same sex marriage. just the other day some right wing lunatic was talking about detaining all trans people and "studying" us, but you that just means torture and killing us. (That last one was some nobody, but it still somehow made news and was posted on Lemmy.)

It's happening right in front of you, open you eyes.

I don't need to talk with my friends and family about their political beliefs, we do that regularly. I know where my friends and family stand. Some of them are not as far left as I am, but everyone I regularly choose to spend time with hates what's happening now.

I'm sorry what? Fuck off with this bullshit. Kirk and his far right friends are stripping my, and all other queer people's right, hunting down anyone that looks Mexican or speaks Spanish and deporting them, or worse. There are fucking concentration camps being built. There absolutely is a left and right.

Yeah, I would have preferred he learn the error of his ways and change his mind to become a decent person. but either way, he can no longer spread his hate, and I'm not complaining about that.

So he is having two people fight in a cage on his front lawn for his amusement... That definitely doesn't sound like dictator behavior.

Do you remember what what show and episode this was?

I feel this so much. Just leave me alone until I can calm myself down enough to function like normal. But no, clearly when I was screaming at my parents to just leave me alone, that was, for some reason, the exact opposite of what they thought they need to do.

Well, in this scenario where the male sex never developed, humans would have to develop asexual reproduction, or develop hermaphrodidic and reproduce like slugs.

To be fair, many people don't know how to give constructive feedback very well either.

Damn, red bull is my energy drink of choice. Anyone got a good alternative that doesn't use alternative sweetener? So many of them use them and I can't stand the flavor they have.
