Lol as an American I feel uncomfortable putting in more than 2 consecutive DAYS in a row and I'm salaried, not a service worker or anything. I can't even imagine having 2 weeks off. I've only been able to manage that once in my adult life during one of my transitions to a new company.

What is your answer to a scenario in which a woman using birth control properly in a loving monogamous relationship becomes pregnant when neither party wants a child? The most common form of birth control (the pill), when taken properly only has a 97% effective rate. Pair that with a second form of birth control (i.e. the pullout method) and it will go up but it will never be 100% effective.

 

Can't wait to accidentally knock my phone into the toilet! At least it will be a fun ride

 

Why YSK: making the most of the fediverse means aggregating content from as many places as possible, but it's not an intuitive process right now, especially for those using apps like Jerboa or Mlem.

I have been seeing some comments from people struggling to subscribe to kbin magazines from Lemmy so here's a step-by-step of how I've been doing it:

  1. Note the name of the kbin magazine you want to subscribe to (example: kbin.social/m/books)
  2. Log into your Lemmy instance from a browser
  3. The Lemmy instance you are registered with will be the first part of the URL and the kbin community will be the second part. Example: I'm registered with lemmy.world so to register with the kbin Books magazine I would type https://lemmy.world/c/books@kbin.social
  4. From there, just hit subscribe and it will start showing up anywhere you're logged into your Lemmy instance (I use Jerboa).

Hopefully this helps spread the word!
