I was playing with some kids I was babysitting in McDonald's play tubes when I was 18. I bent my ankle weird. I'm turning 30 in a couple months and there's literally not a single day without ankle pain. Sometimes it's disabling. Several times they haven't actually found anything wrong with it but last time they said it had something (can't remember) and it made a lot of bad clicking sounds when the podiatrist handled it. I've tried lots of things to help.

Anti vaccine rhetoric has an extremely high correlation to religious people. The commentor was speculating about how these people in the past would have felt about the anti vaccine people today. It's a valid question. People back then didn't have access to information or access to much real hope; it's not surprising they were religious.

Usually it means the parents opted for this. Not that anyone deserved this, I'm just clarifying what it likely means.

Oh yeah, I forgot it even had ads because we have a pi hole.

I used to think "good" kids had "good" parents and vice versa but I learned this isn't always the case. I should have realized, I was only such a "good" (quiet) kid because my parents scared me. I didn't feel safe. But some good parents raise genuinely respectful yet also self-respecting kids.

That's funny, I thought you were personally calling out my child who pronounces it avav. He also pronounces able as avel.

I keep hearing this and I wonder about how they do this. I mean how to they keep records of every shoplifter? Do the employees recognize the people every time they come in? How many shoplifters can they keep track of? Are they like "ah yeah it's shoplifter 687, put this video in his file"? Do they bother with people stealing an occasional item like basic clothing or food? Are they watching a single shoplifter over years, like what if they only steal once in a while and it's low value? I'm curious about this, I've never actually heard from anyone who was watched over a period of time and then prosecuted.

What? Why? I can't walk anywhere in my city and I certainly love the self checkout.

 

Anyone who knows about kids' movies knows how popular princess movies are, especially Disney princesses. My child is six and absolutely loves them too. My child also loves princes and kings, but I'm having a hard time finding anything that features a character as easily beloved as Elsa or Moana for example. Even worse, a lot of the times male characters are just antagonists or at least stand in the way of the princess. I'd love to see a movie with a young prince who isn't evil or dumb (as a joke) that kids can relate to. I think it also be cool if there was singing or magic or anything mystical. My kid kind of likes Shrek but I was hoping to find one about a human prince. The protagonist in the movie The Lorax is a young boy on a good mission, and we like that movie too, but we're just looking for something bigger. I'm not looking for a movie that's primarily fighting, a little is okay, but I'd really prefer if the main focus was some honorable endeavor. Am I just missing the prince movies, or are they all about princesses instead?
