Idk i kind of get it. I don't want the government regulating how I raise my kids. I don't want them to enforce that i follow rfk jrs recommendations. I don't want them saying I legally have to educate my kids according to turning point's curriculum.

It's a slippery slope and I don't trust the government as far as I can throw it to set what is considered scientific consensus.

Hard agree these parents should be found criminally negligent, but how will that be possible when their own government is telling them not to trust vaccines?

We went one year where it rained. We got pretty wet, but the lines all disappeared. It was amazing.

I don't know why no one has said it, but get rid of social media as we know it. That's the actual only solution. The harms of social media applies to all ages. It's the capitalist side of social media that is the danger. Put limits on advertising and suddenly the algorithms to keep you engaged/ angry/ addicted are pointless, and suddenly social media isn't as harmful.

I have these! Plus I've got a bony lump on the roof of my mouth. Like half a small golf ball or half a large marble at the back of my hard palate, right before my soft palate. I always thought everyone had it, but a few years ago I learned it's rare. More common in certain genotypes, most people in my family have it.

My husband bought me chocolate this month (as he does every month with the groceries) but this month rationed it into little valentine bags.

I wrote out 102 reasons I love him on colorful scraps of paper and rolled them up into jars.

I think it's so narrow minded to say you don't celebrate valentines because it's too capitalistic. Aren't you looking for any excuse to shower your partner with love? Plus valentines can be so grade school and still so sweet! It's an excuse to let out your inner child and make a craft or hand drawn card/ love letter. I baked heart shaped cookies and dyed some frosting pink!

Neither of us shelled out big money, but you can bet I wore pink and red a couple times this week. It's fun to like stuff! It's the best part of being human!

You said

Perfect argument that they are too immature to be on the road.

In response to a comment saying doors may not automatically close on self driving cars to protect children. It seems like you're saying children are too immature to be on the road.

No one thinks children are incapable of closing doors, people think self closing doors may cut off children's fingers.

I'm sorry, are you saying children are too immature to be passengers in cars?

I was a pixel user since pixel 1, always buying A year or two behind whenever mine would crap out. My last 2 gave up awfully quickly both with bloated fat batteries. Google was supposed to replace the battery for free but I couldn't figure out how to bring it anywhere local. On the second one, it stopped turning on when the battery got fat, and no way in hell was i sending in my phone without wiping it. I'm never doing pixel again. They're unreliable.

When you look at the damage French protests cause vs the violence they incite in cops, it's relatively safe compared to the violence us cops perpetrate in retribution to completely peaceful protests in the us, or even just violence top bystanders in the US. Add in that French protests actually accomplish something and the risk benefit calculations are so totally different.

I mean believing Mr. Grab 'em by the pussy measures genital tightness with a finger isn't quite the stretch that adrenachrome is, but I take your point.

 

I'm pregnant again and I guess I'm looking to vent and maybe for some affirmation.

This is my second baby, but it's my fourth time doing the first trimester. We've suffered two losses.

I'm only 7w5d and I'm already so tired of being pregnant. I'm awfully sick all day every day and I'm crazy tired no matter how much sleep I manage to get. I'm doing my best to meet my toddler's needs.

I just hate this and because of my losses I feel so guilty hating every minute of it. There's nothing beautiful about this. I just feel nausea all day long, I throw up every morning, I cry at every stupid thing, and I'm dog tired. Every smell is overwhelming to me and most food disgusts me and I'm too tired to make myself anything to eat, so I'm always hungry.

I wish I could tell everyone I come into contact with as an excuse for my exhaustion and low effort, but I know how much I won't want to talk about it if anything should happen so I'm pretty stuck there.

I just hate it and I wish more often the media would be honest about how doggone awful it is. Nothing is working to relieve my nausea. The thought of ginger makes me puke from trying that for my morning sickness so much last time.

I guess that's all. Ain't being a woman grand.

 

Is anyone else having the issue where you're 30 comments deep into a post, you reply to a comment and when you submit it refreshes the whole post making you lose your spot in the comments?

Is there anything I can do to prevent this?

I'm on a Google Pixel if that's relevant.
