  • You either have a clean house or you have a kid. You’ll never have both at the same time. Most people have neither.

    For me it’s also impossible. Theres just so much stuff.

    • robot vacuum runs at night, shit needs to be off the floor - this helps a lot already
    • be into podcasts, designated hour of cleaning while listening to something interesting





  • It’s tricky because yeah in theory more production should be happening. I listened to a podcast recently that talked about how kitchens changed during the years. That the initial idea for stuff like washing machines and ironing boards was that women (in that time) would have to spend less time on chores and could be more free (it was argued from a feminist point of view). The reality was that the expectations just went up. Suddenly people expected the towels to be ironed etc.


  • I believe that a social democracy is the best compromise we can make. The market should be able to innovate but rules set in place to protect workers and the environment. Social safety nets so people do not fall into despair - happy people equals less sickness and more productivity.

    I believe UBI can play a role but I’m still not sure how exactly, luckily I’m not a politician.

    In the end I’ll always vote more to the left, even though I’m well paid I think a society is healthier when there are less major differences in wealth.

    I’ve got an oppo reno8. Before I got this phone I promised myself I’d do a bunch of research to find a phone that was better than what I had, and that I could root.

    In the end life got in the way and I just got a higher number phone (went from oppo reno 4 to 8) because I knew the phone was OK. Kinda regret it now
