A Pooja is a sort of ceremonial prayer. It’s also a common name associated with some actresses who were or are attractive.
As an aside theres a movie “Khabie Kushi Khabie Gum” with a character named Pooja living in the UK. The filmmakers decided should have the nickname (drumroll please) Poo. No, it is not possible to take seriously.

I question whether that can occur in a good way. I don’t see human greed going away, better to cage it under heavy control and not get complacent.

Do you really believe only professionals and doctorates are societal benefits? Climate and environment is not a population problem but rather a capitalist problem of resource use/allocation. Replacement amounts of children (2) are one thing that is different than having like 5. There are societal problems with a lack of children which can be seen in Japan and will be seen in China as well as most western nations with low immigration.
The dictionary definition of empathy is : the action of understanding, being aware of, being sensitive to, and vicariously experiencing the feelings, thoughts, and experience of another.
You’re just trying to force your own values without attempting to understand an opposing viewpoint. So yeah, you lack empathy.
Any more is just a circle at this point I’m out.

Raising a kid done right is a societal gain/benefit and can help those societal advancements. No one here is asking for a medal but the entire point of empathy at large is a recognition that people experience and feel differently than you do about certain things. That includes children.

I mean the good thing going is already implied via the years before.
Life goals vary by person. These may not be the entirety of their life goals but a representation of one that is attainable to many. A strong and happy connection with your partner to the point they desire a child with you enough to go through pregnancy and childbirth and raising a child is not shallow
Very few people reach celebrity or make noticeable impact. Participation in minor community improvement is about as much as most people manage and its ok to be content with that.

Life is a lot more than suffering. There is a joy in human connections. Friends, family, partners, and children.
It’s alright if partners and/or children aren’t for you (even family) but its weirder to be entirely unable to empathize with a desire for human connections and life goals (which vary).

We do both. The problem is corporations and stupid people. See Monsanto, the non-GMO push and the results of golden rice or similar.

Still similar advice, get away, have a manager or ally deal with them. The point is to try and deescalate by removing yourself from the situation. If they prevent that and continue escalating then you escalate to the level needed to get away and call the cops on them.
- Comment on If you are in the US, and a karen threatens to call ICE on you, what's the best course of action? 1 month ago:
Act like you can’t hear and get away. If she grabs or tries to block moving away then escalate to what is required to get away.

There’s a fair bit of humor you miss out on if you’ve only seen clips and memes. Most of my irl friends have seen it and blazing saddles, though that could be my fault…

If you look into it an amazing amount of them are further funded by Russia. Not solely but enough to make them bigger than they’d be otherwise.

So its not like restaurants where they can legally be paid under min if tips make it up but rather that housekeeping tends to be immigrants (often illegal) and thus underpaid. Most hotels will allow you to opt out of room servicing but when you leave they still have to “turnover” the room. Those neat sheets and clean towels all get thrown in the wash. The carpet still gets vacuumed, etc.
All that said I don’t really follow through on this all the time especially as I don’t carry cash as much nowadays.
- Comment on FIFY 1 month ago:
Whole stay, when you’re leaving. What the housekeepers do is up to them. It isnt like restaurant tips, the expectation isn’t as engrained. Maybe 5-10 per time your room is serviced maybe more if you’ve left a real shitshow for some reason.
No on the bus driver. A hotel shuttle you can give a couple to if they help with the bags but generally not.

The filling is like a bad taxidermy. You know what it is but it’s just not right. Icing is more of the same. The biscuit(?) part is cake flavored cardboard.
