Ooh I've been there as well, twice actually. Nice place. The only annoying thing is when they try to sell you your pictures at the end, kinda freaked me out how aggressive they were.

No, the frog is just so fabulous on its own. She's born with it, she doesn't need Maybelline.

If the pizza man truly loves the babysitter... why is he spanking her rear?

And when you crouch down it walks around you while rubbing its head on your legs and comes back around to get more pats.

It's definitely not okay. Embarrassment won't help any kid learn, it'll just make them hate the teacher and by extension the subject.

Hahaha in Czech we also call raccoons "wash bear". And platypuses "bird mouth", or rather "bird lip/gob" would be more accurate.

Right? Oh I'm so relieved that someone agrees, I fully expected the opposite because it just seems like the kind of thing people would get offended by. Most people have kids because they want to, and that's it. I personally don't want kids, and if I wanted to raise a kid I'd choose adoption. Yet people always treat me like a total freak of nature. "What do you mean you don't want to bring a child into this utterly broken overpopulated world? Preposterous!" Any justification for having a biological kid instead of adopting is usually "because I want to, and I want it to be MY kid" which is just selfish and very confident of people to think that their genes are so great they must be spread. Now i wouldn't call for policy action in that regard because it sort of seems like a slippery slope towards eugenics, but maybe it'd be nice to see a shift in discourse, so that adoption isn't always treated like the very last resort.

That's so heartwarming.
This is definitely an unpopular opinion but tbh I find it kinda... selfish? To scoff at adoption and make a kid when there are so many kids in need of a home. Like, what makes your genes so special that they need to be spread instead of giving your home to a kid that needs it? Yes, yes, biological drive to procreate etc. but humans have been able to achieve what we've achieved only by cooperating so we might as well help people that need it, no?

I guess I'm more of a pessimist because I think one almost never has the "full story" and as a result is hardly capable of making a truly objective decision, but that's arguing philosophy, and I do strongly agree that objectivity is much more likely to be thrown out the window if it's in a matter one is emotionally involved in.
It is true that nowadays the "facts over feelings" crowd is mostly right wing, but anyone who takes time to think about what they say will realize that it's just window dressing and that their actual argumentation is just as feelings based, if not more, than left wingers'. "Two genders", "free speech but legal punishment for flag burning", "we're all about the cold hard facts but don't offend my religious sensibilities" etc. Again, not that left wingers are significantly less emotional in their arguments, but at least they don't pretend to be.

Feelings have always overruled facts, and to pretend otherwise is delusional. There is no such thing as a prelapsarian perfect world where everything was driven by facts. I like Ricky but the implication of his statement, that feelings overruling facts is a somewhat recent development and not something that existed since the dawn of mankind, is fucking mental. We all are driven by emotions, we have biases we are not even aware of, we twist facts to suit our feelings and it has never been and probably never will be the other way around. Sorry to be all doom and gloom but I'm not enough of an optimist to believe humans are capable of objective factual thinking.

I've been thinking of getting myself some blue light blocking glasses because my eyes burn when I stare into the computer screen for 8 hours a day at work. And then I come home and stare into it again bc I gotta study for my exams.

Honestly, my parents would sometimes smack me but I don't even remember it, I have much worse memories from my dad yelling at me, saying really mean shit about how useless I am and all that (he's got a very short temper). To this day I get a panic attack when someone raises their voice at me, but I don't care all that much about a kid getting a light slap for acting like an asshole.
That's in my opinion the only reason for ever slapping a kid. When they do something wrong, first you explain why it's wrong, why it might harm other people or be bad for the kid, etc. Then, inevitably, the kid will test your limits and act like an asshole anyway, that's just what they do sometimes. That's when you give them a light smack. Not a full on spanking, just a slap to remind them that they won't get away with acting like an asshole, and that actions have consequences. I see too many parents these days not doing anything when their kid is an asshole to strangers and that's imo wrong too.

Tbh trying to dodge people who don't understand social distancing while trying to get all your groceries is a workout by itself.
I mean admittedly I don't have to social distance too hard since I had covid recently and I'm immune for some time now, but still, I don't want to be that idiot who breathes down other people's necks despite having the 2m marks under my feet.
