And on your cake day no less! Happy cake day!

I think you meant to say “parents suck”, in that case.

Also, I’m really sorry those things happened to you. Truly, I am. ❤️

The fuck? My kids are awesome. Speak for yourself.

I’m pretty sure a lot of research shows that limiting screen time for kids is a good thing.

I definitely know that not having access to screens all the time made me have stronger social skills in school than I would’ve had staring at cartoons every chance I got. Being on the computer from the moment I got home was sure as hell bad enough. Once I started skateboarding, my social life took off much faster. Being out, no screens, in a social context where people are just being offline people.

When I was in school, we talked. And when we didn’t talk, we just sat, bored, together. It was bonding in a way that the brain needs. You need to just sit in silence with someone and be bored together sometimes, man. Boredom feeds creativity. We were also walking around the halls, taking walks outside, going out and touching grass, getting some sun. This was even in high school.

Sure as fuck wouldn’t have done that if I could watch shows and doom scroll every break.

I’m glad they’re banning phones in schools here soon. Gonna be good for learning/concentration, and creativity. E-learning is awful for learning, and I can’t imagine leasure-time with phones and other devices help with concentration either, even if they “earned it”.

There was a joke? That was a joke?

Didn’t you want them to hang out with their friends instead of watching cartoons during the day? Or maybe make friends?

Love to see it. The only result I ever wanted for something like this. Let everything he does and everything he touches turn to stone and dust.

Wonder how many days that is in human time. He would finish the Ukraine war in 24h, so something tells me it’s about 700 weeks or so.

Happy cake day!

Sounds like this is a change for the better, eh. 😮‍💨

Exactly. And we want to keep our summers and not have to spend every day indoors. Ffs, these people who are like “you’ll be fine”. Ridiculous.

It not just about infrastructure. We want to able to grow our own food and keep livestock and all that. Without the Gulf stream that’ll be… Harder. 🥶

I would still feel sad that I had to kill my daughter to uphold those rules… Not fucking dance in the street. Unless it’s also in the rules: “and you’ll like it”. 🤪

Well, in reporting I’m used to getting, we don’t have to guess with “typical ratios”. They give the numbers up front. That’s what I think accurate reporting should do.

That’s all good. I’m just saying in news reporting where I live, killed and injured are always reported separately. It matters.

Well that’s a weird thing to do, to add them up like that. Usually you say how many were killed as well as how many were injured, separately.

Killing 100 and injuring 100? Nice!
