making the radical claim "11 year old children should be taught how to make extremely simple food" has resulted in people making arguments like "I wasnt allowed to plug in electronics until I was 16 and I think this is super normal actually" and "children dont know what ratios are so its unfair to expect them to be able to comprehend the idea of adding equal amounts rice and water to a rice cooker" and I gotta say originally I thought maybe I was being too judgy but now I feel very secure in my opinion because what the fuck

Children might not know what ratios are in the sense of 1:1 notation, but they are more than capable of understanding 'you have to use the same amount of water and rice otherwise it goes wrong'.

In addition to this, cooking is an excellent way to teach children scaling and ratio in Real Life.

"Children don't understand-" AND THAT'S WHY IT IS YOUR JOB TO TEACH THEM????? LIKE HELLO??? THEY CAN LEARN??????

#also did we not all learn ratios in 4th or 5th grade math??#and in 1:1 notation!

saw a tiktok of a mother taking her very tiny daughter to an art museum and she’s just walking around going “whoooa” “woooaah” to everything but then they got to a marble statue of a nude woman lying on her back and the girl points and goes “mommy🫵” and i just immediately welled up with tears and all the comments are just laughing about it and of course it’s funny but how are you not insanely moved by the way art connects everyone on earth from a centuries-old sculptor to a toddler in 2023

MY BABY QAIS MAY NOT WAKE UP AFTER TONIGHT.

I am writing this with shaking hands, terrified these words might become the last trace I leave behind about my little boy.

Bad news, due to anemia, Qais is now suffering from severe malnutrition and has lost eight kilos from his small body, and I am left watching him fade without the means to help him.

I am begging you from a place of fear and love—please don’t ignore us. Donate now, your donation could be the only thing keeping my baby alive.

Yeah quiet quitting is great and all but have you tried chaotic working?

Like. I remember back in my grocery store cashier days I did so much crazy shit.

When WIC (Women, infants, and children voucher program to help low income mothers/families with children) people were in my line I would pretty much know who they were. Before the cards they had to tell us upfront they were WIC and show us their vouchers for what they were allowed to get (it was awful some times. Like. 2 gallons of milk. $4 worth of vegetables etc etc). They’d always have items hanging back, waiting to see what the total was and if they would have to take it off the belt.

I began to place the fruits/vegetables a certain way on the register scale so that like 1/2lbs of grapes read as like .28lbs or something. Then act shocked when I said that they still had X amount of lbs left. They got all their fruit and vegetables.

I think it started to kinda? Catch on to the women? Because I would have the same moms in my line month after month. And even after they switched to the cards (they worked like food stamp cards?) I’d still do the same thing. They were able to get more produce for whatever shitty max amount Indiana gave them.

Anyways. Be chaotic. It’s more fun that way.

One thing that annoys me about Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels relationship is how much people downplay the importance they played in one another’s lives/careers. Like, I’ve seen people say they were never that close, and that Bret had only ever tolerated Shawn’s presence around him.

It just tells me that y’all don’t really be listening to Bret despite touting the opinion that you think he’s never wrong. He has said multiple times in dozens of interviews that he and Shawn started off as really good friends (article courtesy of @millyrocking ) in their younger years, and even when things began to get tense he still valued the relationship they had.

Not to mention that even as recently as Wrestlemania (with CM Punk vs. Roman Reigns as the main event), Shawn went on to say that he and Bret (comparing their relationship to Punk/Roman) worked so well together because it was two different people with entirely different philosophies about the business coming together; that there was no one else he would have rather have been up on stage with, especially during that sixty minute Ironman Match and all that went into planning it.

@kismetkayfabe also wrote a great mini essay on this, but even when they’re being evasive about one another (before the reconciliation) it makes a lot of sense and just highlights just how raw the wound of losing that relationship/friendship was. It didn’t mean the relationship meant very little and there was just nothing to talk about, in fact in meant so much that talking about it AT ALL was painful; especially on Shawn’s end, where most of the guilty feelings laid.

#great callout and thanks for the shout out!#i really wish bret and shawn would tell us more stories about their friendship #i want to know about the good times and how close they actually used to be #i wonder why no one asks them about it

if you work in a creative field...or if you do creative hobbies like writing or drawing...you need to make friends with people who don't do those things. you need to befriend normie Steve who has never written a story in his life. and this is because when you are in a creative job or hobby and spend all your time doing that thing, surrounded by very capable people, who you inevitably compare your own progress and skills to, you forget what the baseline human skill at that thing is. and it's usually zero. normie Steve has not written a story since the 3rd grade when his teacher made him do it. he's very good at other things that are not storytelling - but if you tell normie Steve that you wrote a full 300-page book from start to finish, he will think you're some kind of savant. he does not know ANYONE else who has done this. you need this perspective. because when you're constantly on Let's Write Stories dot Com then everyone on Let's Write Stories dot Com will inevitably be like "oh of course everyone on earth has written a book or several at this point!" and you canNOT let yourself think that. that is not even close to the average human experience. you are in a bubble. do not put yourself down. do not give up.
