Why am I considered "too old" to play with toys and actually enjoy it. I have a ton of merch of my favorite characters and it's supposed to just sit there and look nice??? Like, why can't my crusty Mario and luigi plushies from ten years ago go on adventures with my deltarune merch?

i had a conversation with my dad yesterday that I think is important to share

Background:

At my elementary school (where I live in Saskatchewan elementary is kindergarten-grade 8) there is a junior side playground (k-3) and a senior side playground (4-8) that we go to for recess.

And on the senior side we have a tiny swing set, a metal beam playground that's about as old as our school, and....a playground ment for kindergarteners

You might be wondering, why is a playground meant for kindergarteners being used for tweens and early teens?

Because our old more challenging playground got torn down and this new one only got put up a year ago.

And because the play structures that are actually fun and challenging for 10-14 year olds are too dangerous and they don't make them anymore!

They quite literally don't make them like they used to!

My school spent years and tens of thousands of dollars on a playground meant for small children because there aren't any playgrounds for larger children

And then adults will ask: why aren't kids going outside and playing anymore?

Because you took away all the places we can play dipshit!!!

we need to normalize letting kids do risky things if it means they can leave the house and get exercise and manage risks!

LET ME CLIMB GODDAMN IT!!

Two points of discussion today

One -

“Respect your elders”

I show everyone the same amount of respect regardless of age

Until that person shows me something not worth respecting

Age does not entitle you to someone’s respect

Especially when you are behaving in a way that does not deserve it

Two -

Age does not equal wisdom

Life experience does not equal knowledge

You can be old as dirt and still be ignorant

And the people who screamed his name thought I was his mother. On TV, the mother is always around the same age as her children. You get the sense she is choosing to be older than them.

So this little fashion influencer wants us to get rid of pur waterfall cardigens because they are dated and not flattering.

I want you to look at the models.

Look at their body size.

Look at their age.

Now here are the women modeling the clothes she says are "current" and "trendy" and should replace the waterfall cardigan ,

Look at their size

Look at their age

This isn't about clothes.

This is a very subtle push at toxic body image, fat shaming, and agism.

The implication in her specific images is you look fat in the old clothes and will yo7nger and slimmer, which is desirable.

I meam, how dare we woman by over a size 6 and over the age of 20, I say sarcasticly..

Ps: if you like it, keep it. The clothes I kept from 1998 are trending again. All styles come back in. Just keep it.
