starting to feel like there's a direct relationship between the growing obsession with lifestyle hygeine (no drinking, no caffeine, no sex, obsessive working out and looksmaxxing) and the inability to meaningful moral stands on issues of actual import
Cafes across the U.S. are embracing the low- and no-caffeine lifestyle, with options that are a far cry from dusty tea bags and rewarmed decaf. nyti.ms/3XKlqoj

Blech, just tell me that you want progressives to embrace the biopolitical enslavement of women and be done with it. Progressives have lots of ideas but you don’t like them.

"the country as of January 1 began charging value-added tax on condoms and other contraceptives."
Ten years after it ended its ‘one-child’ policy, China’s push for more babies isn’t winning its citizens over | CNN
