Is that a community already?
Thank you for posting exactly what came to my mind. (It’s Gurren Lagenn y’all)
I am reflecting on my own parenting. I see possible benefits of a leash.
We’ve never used a leash. Instead I do a lot of yelling / stern vocalizations to keep kids away from areas they shouldn’t be. My approach is fraught with negative side effects because I often come off as angry, and my spouse and I work on checking me if it gets to be too much.
A leash could be a good alternative, or just an additional option to incorporate. It’s food for thought.
I read the OP as if they’re highlighting a double standard, rather than positing that OP themselves think they’re bad. “Can you articulate why a leash is always bad” seems improper if I understand OP correctly.
I could be wrong :P
Our noise canceling headphones were for my 6yo but I use them more often than he does. Sometimes when he wears them he cranks the volume on the tablet to hear it through those headphones and we’re still educating him on why that’s no good.
“Educating” my ass; have you ever thanked a teacher for calling you a wrong stupid cunt?
If I want to educate you on the proper way to respond to someone stating their own possibly-naive experience, I’d undermine my effort if I let my own cunt face follow it up with “Now go wipe your mom’s ass for the umpteenth time cuz you’re a shitty teacher.”
Sincerely, I don’t feel the kind of hostility towards you that that example suggests. But if you feel insulted, reflect on that and go from there.
This was informative, and unexpectedly candid. I guess I understand downvotes as an expression of disapproval of the act of making fake IDs but if it was legal at the time to make them, then only the ethical argument remains and that’s moot if it’s illegal now.
I feel smartened
We might make new friends on the road that day.
They’re not wrong. It’s feeling like Jaden Smith posting.
Hi all! Referencing rule 2 “the entire showerthought should be in the title” I think this one warrants removal but I hate to wipe out good faith interaction in the comments, so I’m locking instead. Please consider resubmitting with a more concise/compliant title, or not. Peace.
Big picture, this is positive news.
That said, I doubt the Admissions and Bursar’s offices are isolated from each other.
I see no reason to believe there aren’t donors making their feelings known that there is a limit to how far the university can go with this. I’m thinking of the Jurassic Park lawyer smugly saying “We could have a coupon day.”
I knew none of this, so I appreciate both of you.

My congressman with an infamous Christmas card ran unopposed in 2024.
Looks like I’M running against him in 2026.
Well…someone could get the military out.
I remember seeing this after he bought Twitter

I sent a text to those I love in any capacity, even former coworkers who’ve probably deleted my number. Not a group text - one by one. I think it’d be prudent for all US readers to consider doing the same.
Knowing some of you are like me, in that you might not know how to word such a text to someone not expecting it from you, I offer you my copy/pasted text:
America has a concentration camp now. I won’t send you anything more…it’s kind of rude that I’m sending this one. https://www.lbc.co.uk/news/donald-trump-announces-plan-to-send-migrants-guantanamo-bay/

Midwives bringing monsters into the world sounds like a game I’d try.
