@UnorthodoxGray @usuallypregnant Also, God’s ultimate goal is not to maximize population of earth and to keep as many humans alive as possible. So I don’t understand your issue with calling the command to procreate a contradiction. God promised blessings to those that obeyed and curses to those that didn’t.

@UnorthodoxGray @usuallypregnant The questions you’re asking are not simple and easy to understand. You need to start with understanding who God is and who people are. God is not a peer. You also need to look at nations and humanity not as individuals. Why do all humans share responsibility for Adam’s sin?

Why is that?

@UnorthodoxGray @usuallypregnant It’s literally a command very early on to be fruitful and multiply. The command was never rescinded. Look at the statistics, modern 100 years is when we stopped repopulating at replacement rate. This has never happened before. As far as the other questions, these need context.

@smokincomi @usuallypregnant God does not care about having children. If he did there wouldnt be so much righteous child murder in the bible. You're acting like humans are going extinct.

@OrwellNGoode It’s accidental at first. They can only recall the last sounds they heard. With time they can improve recall, but they get used to repeating just the last words/endings and then it’s a battle to get them to repeat the rest of the phrase, until it finally clicks.

@UnorthodoxGray @usuallypregnant You can read God’s word to find that those aren’t my words. However, if you want a purely secular reason, the economy requires continued growth. Otherwise that exponentially growing stock market curve will drop off a cliff and few will survive no food, no fuel, no water, etc.

@smokincomi @usuallypregnant God doesnt give a fuck if we have kids or not. If he did, no one would be infertile. Give me an actual reason this is a bad thing without bringing what *you think* God wants into it.

@UnorthodoxGray @usuallypregnant Because we’re allowing temporary social constructs to affect how we behave, reproduce and this will have historical impact. In essence we’re listening to man, rather than God. God says He will provide, if we uphold our side of the relationship, yet out of fear of man, we ignore.

@usuallypregnant Why are we acting like this is inherently negative? Men dont want to die for a country that doesnt give a fuck about them and dont want to have a ton of kids they cant afford? Why is that bad?

@Springfromb612 @ywomendeservles Or one can read history and believe someone other than the liberal left media and entertainment industry. What this man is looking for is the natural order of the universe. That’s why it’s been around for so long. Now that we artificially broke it, doesn’t make it desirable.

If you want these kinds of women, get a time machine, bro not a wife! Go back to the Middle Ages and buy one from the slave market. Not marring them in 2026! Some guys have this mind-set concept about women, and yet they wonder why they ended up single and no women treat them with respect. And they blame it all on feminism, not their own behavior. 😂

@Simon_Ingari Companies do the same thing with cashflow. They require payment net 30, but pay their vendors net 60. The business world is full of hypocrisy, blackmail, and abuse. It’s how majority of the money is “made”.

HR: 90 days. Candidate: If someone resigns and requests to leave within 30 days, would you allow it? HR: No, we require time to find a replacement and ensure proper knowledge transfer. Candidate: Then why is it fair to expect new hires to join early when existing employees can’t leave early?

HR: What is your notice period? Candidate: 60 days. HR: Is it negotiable? Candidate: No. HR: Sorry, we’re looking for someone who can join within 30 days. Candidate: May I ask a question? HR: Sure. Candidate: What’s the notice period in your company? HR : ↓↓↓

@asha_mat @WilliamofKent @WallStreetMav So it’s not a problem to be accountable for money at work or any other enterprise, but it’s a problem to be accountable for money at home? Is there a magic fountain of money at home?

@WilliamofKent @WallStreetMav Having to ask is the problem. Being treated like a child is a problem. Having to justify every expense is a problem. Probably hearing comments like "what do you need that for?" all the time is a problem ...

🤔🤔🤔

@jadecristal @jiratickets You’re spot on. Lying is the reason AI breakthroughs have slowed. Humans lie so often that a large portion of models are built upon lies and produce lies. Yet we continue to lie and program the agents to lie, then we get upset when AI lies to us constantly or goes AWOL.

It’s really the lying that’s the most unacceptable. I feel like lots of people would be fine if AI helped them, then escalated if it couldn’t or was told not to. Lying about it, though, should be a fraud charge against the company in question, with a 1% global revenue fine. Each and every time, until the dumb-fucks get it.

Unrealized gains tax for Gen-Z: You buy a Pokémon card for $50. Someone offers you $500 for it. You say no. You love that card. You're keeping it. The government says: "Cool, but that card is worth $500 now. You owe us $100 in taxes." You: "…I didn't sell it." Government: "Don't care. Pay up." You don't have $100 lying around. So you're forced to sell the card you love just to pay a tax on money you never received. Next month? That card drops back to $50. Your card is gone. Your money is gone. And the government shrugs. That's a wealth tax on unrealized gains. They don't pay you back the tax... Now picture this. Your mom calls you crying. She has to sell the house she raised you in. Not because she can't afford it. She's lived there 30 years. It's paid off. But some website says it's worth more now and the government says she owes $15,000 she doesn't have. So she sells your childhood home. The kitchen where she made you breakfast. The doorframe where she marked your height every birthday. Gone. To pay a tax on money that was never real. Now picture the opposite. Your dad put everything into his small business. For 20 years he built it from nothing. One year the business is "valued" at $2 million on paper. He owes a massive tax bill. He empties his savings. Sells his truck. Borrows money. Pays it. Next year the market crashes. His business is worth $200,000. He lost everything to pay a tax on a number that doesn't exist anymore. Does the government give him his money back? No. Does the government give him his truck back? No. Does the government care? No. They sold this idea as "taxing billionaires." But billionaires have armies of lawyers, offshore accounts, and trusts. They'll be fine. You know who won't be fine? Your mom. Your dad. Your neighbor with a small business. The farmer down the road who's had the same land for four generations and now has to sell it because dirt got expensive. You're not taxing wealth. You're taxing people for owning things. It's like getting a parking ticket for a car you might drive somewhere someday. They want you to own nothing and be happy. To fund the fraud, waste and abuse of the welfare state they created. There is enough money. More tax isn't needed. It's all a lie. But you've been gaslit into believing this is a rich vs poor debate. I hope you understand what's at stake.

@timrush74 @Rothmus Because God gave humans free will and the children’s parents had responsibilities and duties they neglected. God knows our needs, but at the same time He doesn’t fulfill those needs without our requests, see free will.

@Rothmus Which makes one wonder why they weren't ALL protected.

@beaverd What’s the alternative? Gov’t builds its own systems? Gov’t awards to low bid. Better skills costs even more. The problem is people settle for good enough. How do you fix that? We need a cultural overhaul, to become like Japan, but even they are losing the new generations.

@ExpeditionAudi @Wes_Macc @tannerdripjobs Same reason most people can’t expense commuting miles as business expense.

@ExpeditionAudi @Wes_Macc @tannerdripjobs Correct on when one enters the store. It’s a bit of gray area on distance. If it’s a usual or comparable distance, then the rule applies. However, if it’s extraordinarily out of the way, then yes, pay from home, because it’s a business trip.

This post is popping off in my Facebook group. How would you handle this?

@Wes_Macc @tannerdripjobs First and last stop of the day are considered commute. The rest is paid time.

@tannerdripjobs Kind of vague. If this employee is expected to go somewhere on his way to work and pick up paint to bring to a job site then... YES, he should be paid from when he walks out his front door since he is on the job. If it is only for the commute TO work, no pay.

@JIM_THE_BOSS_ @ZolaInRecovery Good thing the church reports to Christ and not religious people, addicts, degenerates, people with no stake in the church, etc.

@ZolaInRecovery I am religious, and I endorse this message.

I’d love to see churches have to validate their tax exempt status every year- submit a spreadsheet of where every dollar went and make them explain how it helped the community. Just my personal opinion, of course.

@GBanksSmith @recap_david @FluentInFinance Money & competition motivates. What motivates in your ideal world? There’s nothing stopping philanthropy today. The problem is intensity, speed, and motive. Just talk to any non-profit. Things move way slower when financial pressures are removed. Humans are lazy by default.

I respect your opinion David. I just happen to think a different way. I did notice how you immediately made it about cheaper prices and profits, which is kind of my overall point. Imagine money and profit weren’t the objective. Imagine advancement and improving humanity was. @grok I know competition and collaboration are both important when it comes to advancing humanity. But for arguments sake, if you had to pick one?

Sam Altman admits OpenAI is in trouble after Gemini 3 release in a leaked memo, per The Information. Google has the World's data, its own chips, and unlimited cash. Google has YouTube, Search, Gmail, Maps, and Android. Billions of users. No other company has that combo. OpenAI is projected to lose $7B by 2028. They're burning $8.5B a year trying to compete. OpenAI's valuation is $500B but its revenue is $13B. That's a 38x revenue multiple. Google trades at 7x revenue with actual profits.

@seandsweeney @realnaholmes If you’re only picking on non-genuine religious folks, then I understand (they’re called hypocrites). Everyone dislikes them because they’re traitors to all. If you’re picking on genuine believers, then that’s whack because beliefs are the “why” behind why people do what they do.

@realnaholmes Been my experience as well. People who are religious and live out their values often don’t have to shout out from the rooftops in my experience.

I’m sorry, but if you lead with your religious views in business, I just can’t take you seriously.

@cleobug101 Getting married and having a child takes 9 months. Although each birth is miraculous, it doesn’t mean much in the sense you’re presenting. Is the child going to be healthy and live in a healthy environment? Just because her reproductive organs still work, doesn’t mean all’s good.
