Every time this goes viral I just think about how it's actually, like, the worst-designed policy ever Have four kids? No more income tax, forever! Have three kids and then your husband dies? Sucks to suck, sounds like a skill issue to me It's the Grand Canyon of welfare cliffs

“Human civilisation” will not end. Civilisations rise and fall. The only thing that could end with this demographic pinch is high-tech secular modernity, which is - in civilisational terms - a very recent thing

Learned today that the Bosnian for “theatre” (позориште) is the same as a Russian word for “embarrassment” or “disgrace”, via a root to do with being a spectacle. So to a Russian, this building in Sarajevo is proudly labelled not “National Theatre”, but “National Embarrassment”.
One way to protect tenants (instead of abolishing fixed term leases) would be to require landlords to put up a deposit as well as the tenant. The landlord's deposit would be used for repairs if the tenant could show the DPS that the landlord was unresponsive / uncooperative.
Imagine if you put this front page in a time machine and sent it back, ooh, say a decade. Or indeed any date prior to a decade ago. It would instantaneously set the new standard for "dog bites man". What next? "Water wet, declares gov"?

The fertility gap is a marriage gap, part [n]: “None of [the 52 women freezing eggs] cited a desire to climb the corporate ladder. Instead, almost all were interested in egg freezing because they lacked a romantic partner.”
I think it’s pretty cruel that women have such a short window to have kids. Like what if you marry the wrong person and then a global pandemic happens and you get really sick and now you’re ready to go but you’re 36 and single? Like where is the room for error

“Government policy on childcare suffers from another major problem, one which underpins all of the others. That problem is that nobody is clear what childcare policy is actually for.” My piece for @CapX on our new report at Civitas. 👶🧩

“What is childcare policy for? That is the important and timely question posed by think tank Civitas in a new report. State spending on the Early Years is scheduled to reach £9 billion per year, yet there is a lack of clarity around what childcare policy is trying to achieve.”

I'm on the train with a v chatty little girl who is around 5 yrs old. So far she's asked strangers the following amazing questions: Have you got a secret for me? Who's the boss of you? Who sleeps in trains? What do you have in your pocket? Do you like clapping? I love clapping!
I will continue to argue that we desperately need a switch towards more pay less pension in the public sector. You can’t get a mortgage based on your future pension.

Yeah this is a big obstacle in making any steps toward child-friendly streets, or even recognising that they are hostile to kids. A decline in children getting hit by cars is only an indication of safer streets if kids are still, you know, using the streets.
It's amazing (read: disturbing) how we've made deaths the bar for changing anything on our roads. I was telling my mom how a street up the hill from us should have a slower posted speed because crossing it is always dicey. "Has anyone died?" she asked. 😧

Love is Love. That’s why I abandoned my children.
For 50-years we've had a legal choice over who to love, for a decade we've had a legal choice over who we can marry. The time has come for Parliament to vote on changing the law to allow assisted dying, to help prevent terminally ill people from suffering very painful deaths.
Yeah once a-fucking-gain, "I have not been listening to women" ≠ "women have not been talking"
I've concluded that men asking 'where are the feminists?' routinely tune out our voices, on the basis that we never say anything worth hearing. Then they stumble across an egregious attack on women's rights and start berating us for not screaming loudly enough.
A john on an Escort Review Board forum says, “ … the vibes of that place were always off”. Another says, “There were women living upstairs.” Presumably neither bothered to (anonymously) call the police. A reminder that sex buyers don’t care about women - only their orgasms.

Couples' autism and systemizing quotients, reading the mind in the eyes test and embedded figures task performance, and their differences in empathizing and systemizing (D score) are positively correlated. In other words, there's assortative mating for autistic traits.
Has anyone explored assortative mating as a factor in the rise in autism rates in the West? I've seen greater diagnostic awareness, maternal age, and metals/toxins cited as factors but not really the theory that maybe more geeks are just finding and marrying each other 🤔🤷♀️
