David Lutz @davidlutzauthor.bsky.social · 30/05/2025I have never understood how not having children is selfish. How can not forcing life on someone be selfish. Honestly I feel like it is sexist because I always see the sentiment aimed at women. 010

David Lutz @davidlutzauthor.bsky.social · 02/05/2025If your Top 10 Scariest Books Ever is half Stephen King I probably won't care about your recommendations. Stephen King is the Frank's Red Hot of horror. Intense enough for most people but some of us need something with more kick. 010

David Lutz @davidlutzauthor.bsky.social · 01/05/2025The world is full of shit that needs to be boycotted. And as poor people it can be very hard to boycott everything. So I think it's ok to just pick a few things that you feel strongest about to boycott. 000
