A sick unhealthy society, self-care tips, how to be rebellious + resilient, what men need, what to teach the kids, be the extremist they say you are and more Great Reset resistance memes!
I had to laugh with the memes of the stay at home moms. My mom was very young and wanted a Life. When I was in first grade, she went to work again. But I preferred to stay at gramma's when she got home and when she complained to dad about it, he admonished her that it was her own fault.. that she was and should be a stay at home mom and then I did not know how gram spoiled me! After that, she quit working and never went out to work again.
Not always easy to do in today's economy. But some of the memes were a bit over the top with the "men are the big, bosses and the woman must stay home and breed and remain submissive to hubby's desires." A man could also remain at home while the woman goes out and earns. That hopefully isn't also considered too radical.
I think it's probably good for the other parent's sanity to at least work part time - either from home or out of the home for maybe 2 to 3 days a week... Like you say, not easy now - unless you have a gov't job for life (and not all local govt jobs are jobs for life - unlike at the state of FED level), its difficult now and you may need the extra income e.g. pay for private schooling etc. Not all parents can homeschool - especially if they are not native English speakers or have limited education...
true. nowadays job certainty is almost nil. At the time, in the 60s and 70s, in Europe, jobs were safe. No worry of being laid off yet. Home schooling is forbidden in most of Europe, but schools were virtually free, we even got notebooks for free. Only to bring a pen!
Unlike men of yesteryears, today's men do not learn how to become a man by learning to be self-sufficient. By impartially assessing today's world, one might not find it "too radical".
I know 2 couples who did just that, one with a woman who hated household work, and one with a husband artist. Also consider, that when one parent is at home, you do not need a second car, lots of dress clothes specially if you do office or high visibility work, you can cook healthy and way cheaper than eating out. Lots of plus points in being a stay at home mom (or dad)
GREAT ARTICLE!!!! I retired (forced) two years ago. I’m 59. I’m moving out of CA, and I had looked into FL. I had looked at The Villages awhile back...it was instant depression for me! Lol! It is like a fake utopia. I can’t do fake.
I am sure that your cat does not relish the thought of being trapped in an air-conditioned Florida hellscape where rats the size of cheetahs and snakes and alligators the length of a city block lurk outside.
Hell NO! The ex-bf is getting custody of “my baby”. I can’t take him away from his coastal fiefdom! I’m going toward the South…people are still human and nice! There’s lots of outdoor activities, hiking,fishing and breathtaking country. And the food and hospitality ain’t bad!😉

Schools also used to have useful classes like woodshop, autoshop, home economics etc to teach kids to be adults....
... follow by various OUTDOORS activities....

Women's clothing for a more formal office job can break the bank..........................

In which I die and find myself in hell.
FYI, I am not now, nor have I ever been, nor have I any present intent of becoming Sam Kriss.

Places like that remind me why I remain feral.
I’m feral as well! I’m a feral gypsy! And YOU look just like my cat…my grey tabby.😉

I'd suggest the Dakotas, if you can stand the cold. The food there is what it is, though.
And it’s EXPENSIVE!
EXCELLENT!
