I literally can't take care of my own life well enough, how do you expect me to be a good parent? This is why I'm celibate.

Also, I feel like there's enough people in the world already. Why do you guys need more than 8 billion people?

It's a house of cards that requires new souls to suffer for the wealthy. There will never be enough people to sate the desire for infinite growth.

Of course there's corporate greed involved.

You don't get it, they need more wage slaves STAT!

Slavery is the last thing I wanna see be brought back.

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

But slavery is pretty awesome.

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.

This is why I'm celibate.

Was that a joke? Otherwise I don't get it?

I don't really feel like getting married and having children of my own. This is what I mean.

And no, it wasn't a joke.

I was confused by the celibate thing. As far as I know, you don't have to be celibate to not have children. I thought that you were joking, like "I am celibate because I don't want childs and totally not because I can't get a girl to heck me"

Well, remove "totally not" and replace "can't" with "don't wanna" and you'll get closer to the truth.

Simply being married is just not my thing, it's never been my thing.
