Yeesh, I feel that right now. We just returned 5 fosters to the shelter to be adopted. House is so much more quiet now. T_T

Yeah, I think reading some of their other comments on this thread illustrates that clearly.

Ah thanks, I had missed that! I hadn’t slept yet at the time so didn’t even notice their instance. Also don’t think I’ve ever tried to look at a mastodon instance. Which Lemmy client do you use? I feel like mine hasn’t updated for a while now that I think about it

Love the reply, that was my first thought. Any idea what you did to freak this guy out lol? He seems completely insane.

Wish I could see his post history, but sadly I just get a 404

You need to actually read the links you’re providing.

I have been reading the links, have you been? Or reading your messages and mine? The LA one refers directly to used car purchases, which if we are still comparing these poor people to cars would be relevant, at least for those that are not children.

I’ll admit the first didn’t have have any good examples (that I saw), it was more to convey the concept of buyers remorse laws existing for cars, since you sounded absolutely incredulous about the idea.

or anything else you purchase in-person

I clearly made the link text say that there were buyers remorse for other purchases.

I was referring to the “sign the title over then regret it” scenario at the top of this thread

Ah misunderstood that one, thought you were just referring to the people sold as cars in general. My bad.

I was merely showing buyers remorse laws exist for car purchases, though it looks like some of them aren’t in effect anymore at least in California (my last used car had a cooling off period).

None of this would ever apply unless you buy from a retailer, which is not the scenario here as I understand it 🤷‍♂️

And you can’t really compare it to “this scenario” because (most?) civilized countries don’t condone the buying and selling of people. You’re more than welcome to provide a link to legal retailers of humans though.

as far as I can find, there is no mandatory cooling period for purchasing a car - or anything else you purchase in-person

There are buyers remorse laws for other purchases as well, such as this

They are saying that the cops are saying cops can have a union but no one else

Condolences. When my cat passes I honestly don’t know what I’ll do. I’ve had him since I became chronically ill and he is always at my side to keep me company.

A quote taken right from the article, “They can’t have both. Young women don’t want to be intimate with men who don’t fight for women’s rights; it’s showing they don’t respect us.”

The Bs are celibacy, no marriage, no children, no dating. None of that is incel behavior.

I think they are more saying none of that with people who don’t respect our right to our own bodies

Not Apples biggest fan, but do love that so many people use their earbuds. I noticed a big shift in people using them versus blaring their music and videos on public transit.
