And I get spit at for saying kids are too expensive (And time-absorbing) for us. And we're not even in the US. And also have more money than we could ever spend. But we love to have all day long to us and ourselves. Traveling and just enjoying life. A kid? No way...into this broken world?

And also have more money than we could ever spend.

Would you be willing to support some organizations on opencollective? For the greater good.

I Wouldn't touch anything US-american, but we do donate a lot and help a lot. Locally mostly.

Great, thanks! Well, i mostly have local organizations in my list for once i get more financially fluid (and also liberapay) but they likely don't apply to you.

Don't forget the FOSS 😊 Also doesn't always have to be financial, I do work in a homeless shelter and such. I was lucky, many weren't.

I'd like to sign up for the waiting list for donations pls

We help people we know and see. Like in those shelters. Or people broken by abuse in whichever form. But in real life noone knows. We look random and probably even poor. And if we do help, it's anonymous. Because if we wouldn't... Well 😔

I feel so guilty for bringing mine into this madness

[-] Dyskolos@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 weeks ago

That's silly. It's already done. No need for guilt. Maybe your kid is happy for existing. Just be a good parent now. But you probably are if you have such feelings 😉
