It must have sucked for your dad but part of me is happy that those sitcoms didn’t entirely lie to me.


I remember I felt I missed something because my mom explained the specifics of menstruation to me and school went into more detail about sex and reproduction. Despite what sitcoms were telling me, no one ever sat me down and said anything about birds or bees. I guess I hoped there was a weird pre-written speech parents awkwardly tried to recall when their kids got to a certain age.


Well, since she’s healthy, is she the type that bruminates? I feel like I’m doing a “no stupid answers” thing because I’ve only had leopard geckos and anoles, so I should leave the answers to people who have had turtles, lol


How does she look? Cloudy eyes? Weird smell?

You got me reading statistical analysis of bullying across countries and damn this is a complicated topic. It seems like boys are the most likely perpetrators, but I wonder if it’s a difference in relational and verbal bullying vs violent bullying, and what’s perceived culturally as bullying and so on.


This idea reminds me of https://postsecret.com/ . I don’t know if it’s helpful, but it’s interesting.


I don’t know her so now this is the only thing I know about her. Yay? And I’m glad she doesn’t make her sons take her nude pictures anymore?


I watched a bunch of old twilight zone as a kid. I never watched new versions, because critics always had a lot negative to say about them, and I personally only sorta enjoyed the classics. They did stick with me, the classic ones, even when kid-me didn’t like them. They’re influential.
Honestly, if I was starting now, I’d just find a list of best episodes and watch those first, and if you are super into them, then you know you’ll probably enjoy the less notable ones. You can watch them out of order. The most famous ones are good to watch just to understand the many modern references to them.


I can see the slur, so maybe it’s lemmy.world


A City Hall spokesperson said Rosenberg did not contact the mayor directly. “Time will tell how sincere of an apology it is,” Mamdani said on Wednesday.
Yeah, though I have a guess what time will reveal.
Rosenberg has a history of incendiary remarks. He referred to tennis legend Venus Williams as an “animal” and once referred to the U.S. Women’s Olympic soccer team as “juiced-up dykes.” He also mocked singer Kylie Minogue’s breast cancer diagnosis.
Time didn’t stop him from making this new remark. And, hey, when reading that archived article linked in the original post:
He has also called female soccer players “juiced-up dykes,” claimed “faggots play tennis,” and said Palestinians were “stinking animals.”
Hm! Yeah, going to need a lot of time to believe that he means it.


I read a blog post years ago by a trans dude about how seeing how little the winner of a smallest penis contest gave a shit helped him not give a shit about his own dick situation.
so, i guess it’s nice for insecure people to see stuff like this?
I guess it depends on how much effort goes into it, but odds are it’d be an easy cash grab so i assume it’d be way worse and also inherently obnoxious.
