December 2023 Locals Questions


What is behind the latest trend in younger women making TikToks and other content that shames their husbands over what they call emotional load and emotional labor? Seems like a new round of self victimization by the same feminist psyop. These women are absolutely miserable.


I am a follower of Christ and believe in an afterlife. Yesterday my father-in-law suggested that Christians who believe in heaven should just end their lives and go to a better place saying that there is no reason to continue life here if there's a paradise waiting for us. I have children, I'm pregnant, I find so much joy and beauty in my daily life and can't imagine how I could just press the eject button on myself, not to mention the gospel really doesn't care for suicide, put it mildly. I saw his statement as an idealistic confession that nothing really matters to him and that if he could trade his life away for something he perceived as better he would. What does philosophy say about our purpose here? Can suicide ever be considered a valid option for people who are enduring suffering?


I signed up because of your extensive library of documentaries and insightful commentaries on History and current events. For some reason this has, in my eyes devolved into endless chatter with dysfunstional people and their personal problems, usually of their own making. A sort of "Dial The Analyst" format.

I am truthfully not the least interested in hearing people whine about their self-inflicted misery! There is more than enough of that sprayed all over the Internet.

You have to much knowledge and too much to offer about history and its implications upon the current world we live in. To be wasting it on such nonsense.

But that is just me.


Last night I had a dream that I had a baby. She/he was so small, so precious. I felt a deep connection to this child in the dream. I was breastfeeding her/him, my fiancé was there and I just felt an immense sense of love and care towards both of them, especially the baby. When I woke up, I was heartbroken and devastated. So disappointed. It felt so real. I can’t stop thinking about this dream, about the baby. It has consumed my whole day. I have cried multiple times, even had a moment of hyperventilating. I have never had such a vivid dream about a baby before. I feel changed. What does this mean? I’m curious to know what you think about this..perhaps my body/genes is telling me something. I can imagine you perhaps saying this. I am 22, and cannot wait to have children. If my fiancé was on board, I’d have them right now.
