not to be all “think of the children” but the fact that companies can openly admit to using methods to intentionally form addictions in children and we’re not killing their ceos in the streets yet is astounding

when I say “kids now don’t know how to disconnect” or “kids don’t know how to be bored anymore” i don’t mean “kids should sit in a white room in a solitary chair eating saltines and never touch technology” i mean “kids are losing the essential ability to imagine and create their own play because they have a constant 24/7 stream of more overstimulating material than they could ever watch at their fingertips, and when this stimulation is removed they literally don’t know what to do with themselves”

when I say “kids are addicted to video games” I don’t mean “ah these darn kids and their dag-blasted Ataris” I mean “video games are being purposefully designed to squeeze as much money/ad engagement out of the individual consumer as possible and mechanisms like lootboxes and season passes are intentionally engineered to create addiction”

i know it’s purely anecdotal but every time i think about that toddler who told his dad “don’t forget to like and subscribe” at bedtime because he thought it was how you said goodbye to people i feel sick

Not to sound like a boomer but playing in mud, using sticks for swords and guns, and gathering plants for potions are all vital to childhood

lots of online people act like its weird or threatening to carry some sort of blade on you when you go out. im not carrying a katana or some shit. theres a reason swiss army knives are primarily knives, its the most commonly useful part

if you carry a sharp edge in your purse you fill the same support class ecological niche as the tylenol friend, and i recommend multiclassing into hand sanitizer friend too

#true!#i have the most superior knife friend #he has a lot of knifes and knows how to keep them sharp #so he gifts all his friends a knife and everytime you see him he sharpens them #(includes pocket knifes and kitchen knives)#which is great! because as this post says a pocket knife is pretty useful on the go

this is so accusatory. those vile children never learned cursive!!! bitch whose responsibility was it to TEACH THEM???

magspag

I read that as more celebratory than accusatory. The curse has been broken

cursive is extremely useful for anyone who writes with liquid ink pens, anyone who enjoys taking handwritten notes quickly and with lower stress on the joints, and anyone who wants to read handwriting from the historical record. these are all really common situations to be in even for civilians, even in 2022. flipping over the photographs from your grandparents' album and not being able to read what they wrote on the back is a bummer. i understand superficially the hatred of cursive and the condemnation of it as useless, but it is misguided. having hundreds of years of human output made illegible to you in a single generation is actually pretty alarming from a historical access standpoint. people should be mad they were not taught to read one of the major languages used by their recent ancestors.

edit: also being given more different writing techniques is so helpful for people with disabilities for mobility, literacy, and cognitive reasons. this is truly one of the only things where i was mad about it in 4th grade, and now as an adult I'm glad i learned it. usually adults are full of shit when they say "oh you'll understand when you're older". cursive is like the only one lol

#i agree so much with the previous comment like writing cursive with an INK pen as a leftie was hell #my hand was always covered in ink #dumb bullshit #but it was way better when i stopped using ink pens (immediately after they werent mandatory)#and then the cursive kind of just faded out of my handwriting #in germany i think its a little different #like i was taught cursive #which makes me able to read what my parents or grandparents wrote #but before this generation there was a different cursive called Kurrent (later also Sütterlin)#which is impossible to read for us #and that was basically used since the 16th century #so yeah fun shit deciphering THAT

I love men, men are my friends and I'm deeply attracted to them, and I feel sorry for people who feel the need to downplay and mock their own love and attraction towards men, like "Sorry for thinking men are hot I know they're gross and bad" or "I love men I wish they didn't all suck." I get why you do that and all but it couldn't be me. Just couldn't.

You’re crying from the dancing video?

The inherent human experience of expressing joy through music and dance across hundreds of cultures and millions of peoples lives and families and those people sharing those dances with a stranger who asked nicely demonstrating the good and beauty of humanity got to me, alright?

#this is the beauty of communal art #i think we really dont dance enough anymore #like theres this sense of community to go somewhere and everyone already knows the way you dance to certain songs #but also you can learn most basic steps fairly quickly #wont look crazy good but if you can stay in rhythm it wont be too bad #and suddenly you are part of something too #you are connected to the people in the room but often also to all the people who danced like this before to a culture #and while you can all do the same thing everyone can add their own little spin to it and everyone knows something different!#feels to me a little like those bar songs you sing where everyone knows different verses #first time you hear them you dont know the words and you only sing the common parts that are easy to get #then you learn the common verses and can sing them #and everytime you sing them with people you learn new verses that you in turn can teach to other people #i fucking love that

i love you lisp i love you stutter i love you pressured speech i love you damaged vocal cords i love you aphasia i love you mutism i love you selective mutism i love you deaf voice i love you apraxia i love you speech delay i love you vocal tic i love you articulation disorder i love you sign language

i hate you societal norm to make fun of speech impediments i hate you “get it fixed” mentality i hate you mocking someone for the way they communicate i hate you “go to speech therapy so your kid won’t be bullied” i hate you i hate you i hate you

#yeah #like i have lisp #and i did try to get it fixed but it was too late #and like when someone makes fun of people with a lisp i immediately go "i have lisp though #and theyre like nooooo its not that noticable with you #like fuck off #even if you really couldnt hear it #why do i have to play that card for you to stop making fun of people #or people who make fun of my dialect #and then i say please dont repeat what i say i think its rude because people used to do that when i stuttered #and THEN they think its rude #like yeah maybe it was also rude before?

not to sound like a medieval peasant or a catholic but i resent anti-carb propaganda so much like bread will never be evil it is holy it is divine it is one of life’s most simple yet decadent pleasures. love is stored in the bread

#might be guilty of a tiny bit of catholicism lads

Ok so the thing about reading like books which are "predictable" is that I, a story enjoyer, go completely bonkers about it bc its like Enrichment in my Enclosure. A scene parallels another earlier scene between different characters thus serving to highlight the differences in their views and priorities???? A line makes me think "hmmm I bet that's gonna be relevant later" ends up being relevant later????? I am a tiger chewing ice cubes out of a pumpkin. I'm so so happy. Please foreshadow more things. Throw the completely anticipateable plot beats at me like catnip mousies!!!!!

YEAH!!!!!!

people who do over the top or silly makeup are the only ones doing it right. makeup shouldnt be used to make your face slimmer or lift your cheekbones or whatever it should be used to make you look like a weirdo or perhaps a beast

#yeah #i only wear makeup to sell shit lool #makes me feel like im not selling myself but someone elses face

people love to find progressive ways to say we should all be arranged into separate groups and try our hardest to not relate to one another
