100% an astrology daughter. like a third of everybody believe in astrology anyway, so she'll receive plenty of support from her peers.

nft son is just going to... I mean, that doesn't end well.

You ruined my day by reminding me that a third of people believe in astrology

I think it has an effect, not inherently, but only because we then standardize schooling based on birth year, not actual age. Starting at four years and one month vs four years and eleven months (where I am, it starts even earlier, at two years and six months/three years and five months for kindergarten) means students are in a wildly different developmental stages. I don’t think it’s necessarily a lifelong thing, but at least during school, the kids who start at a later age are better at sports, so they’re more likely to make sports teams, which certainly affects your personality.

I would never say that I believe in astrology though.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

That has nothing to do with astrology though. Astrology has zero effect.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

Sure, but it’s the time of year (indirectly) affecting your personality, so it felt relevant

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Right?! As long as it's not the Nazi version of astrology

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Well there is the Nazi version of nft sons... So... I guess even then... I guess... I take the Nazi astrology daughter... And then I blame myself for being a bad parent who failed to teach them properly morals.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Odds are that the Nazi astrology daughter would marry a nazi nft son...

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

So you are saying, I get to choose between Nazi nft son and Nazi nft son In law... I guess either way, I get one. What is more embarrassing that my daughter would choose a nft bro or that my son is a nft bro? I guess the former as it involves 2 people.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

In law? No, no, the siblings marry.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

There is a nazi version of nft sons and a nazi adjacent version. I'm not aware of a third one

[–] [email protected] 18 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

a third of everyone

I hope not. I don't want to see the data. Just this once, lie to me if you have to.

But still astrology daughter. Nft son is ... I don't want to have my money stolen to gamble in a scam casino. I intend to be able to send my astrology daughter to university and if my nft son does what nft sons do, I can't.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Yes, around a third, or to be more precise everyone born between May and August.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

That is so Taurus, Geminis, cancers, Leos, virgos! So typical! Am I right?

[–] Grandwolf319 2 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

It’s 70% of the US, would explain a lot

There's a path from nft son to incel that's scary. Astrology daughter easy.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah I'd rather not have allergy-denying magical thinkers poisoning me with peanuts

Astrology daughter. Nft son is stupid, and probably a jackass. Astrology daughter likely has her heart in the right place and just thinks it's a fun little thing.

[–] [email protected] 46 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (3 children)

Astrology daughter might have her heart in the right place but she's still stupid, and her prejudiced woo-woo beliefs are going to end up hurting people and society.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Chill down! You sound almost like a Taurus!

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago

I don't believe in astrology. I'm a Sagittarius and we're sceptical.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

Sure

But compared to an nft son, a lot less.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

Astrology is literally older than the Assyrian Empire, that grift is eternal.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 weeks ago

I wish I could see NFT's as just a fun little thing tbh. But nft sons have ruined that.

[–] [email protected] 51 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Astrology daughter. NFT son will be bankrupt in your basement, no matter what. Astrology daughter might marry a rich guy.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Only if he's not a Taurus. No amount of money can get Mercury back in alignment.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 weeks ago

But the Taurus was sold under the Ford brand. The Mercury version was called the Sable.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

And if she doesn't, she hopefully tries to be a kind person and sell pretty gems.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

And if not, it's saturns fault that she's an insufferable cunt

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Which means she needs to attune to Venus, duh!

Both are recoverable but the astrology daughter is much cheaper to handle. Tarot, crystals, and star charts don't eat retirement funds.

Daughter with a Psychic, much tougher call.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

How about daughter who is a psychic?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 weeks ago
[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

Psychiatry is expensive yeah.

[–] [email protected] 33 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Astrology daughter won’t try and destabilize the world with star charts

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 weeks ago

It’s always a fucking Reagan. FUCK

[–] [email protected] 29 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Astrology daughter;

+less money lost to scams

+less likely to engage with bro culture

-more likely to engage with crystals, vibrations, homeopathy, etc..

+less cringe

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago

Much more likely astrology daughter is engaging with crystals and vibrations from a more spiritual sense without zealotry, and purely for the joy it brings them. Homeopathy probably because western medicine is a miserable experience for women...

So yeah, those aren't exactly red flags at first glance.

NFTs however... Don't ever talk to me again.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Both equally insufferable, but NFT son is more consequentially risky.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago

If you believe in something like astrology, chances are high that you also get scammed by nft

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 weeks ago
[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Child neglect is probably the cause

astrology son and nft daughter

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

astrology nft or son daughter?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

I don't want children, especially in a world that's getting worse every day. And NFTs pretty much sum up many of the causes that have led us to this situation.

So I'd choose an astrology daughter without hesitation.
