  • I am posting this comment before checking myself because I’m worried I’ll forget what I was doing and not make the post.

    Isn’t that tick bite indicative of Lyme’s disease? (The bullseye welt.) Most tick bites end up looking like amped up mosquito bites, or a small wasp sting from my personal experience (small/medium welt with puncture in center, inflamed red circle radiating outward, no white ring)

    Also, what is the bug in the tick image? Doesn’t look like a tick. And the bed bug silhouette looks like a stink bug.

    Idk man. I am shoving respect into my son’s head at all times, I show respect and love to my wife/his mom all the time, and he is misogynistic AF. I don’t get it. I am trying so hard to raise him to be respectful towards women and he just doesn’t accept it.

    He’s 7, ADHD, Autistic, etc. But I really don’t know if that even has anything to do with it because I am, too.

    I wouldn’t say it’s been debunked. Probably improbable, but in no way debunked





  • Dead Cells is amazing. It’s a side scrolling, action-adventure, RPG-ish Rogue-like game. I’ve spent so much time playing this game.

    The player takes the role of an amorphous creature called the Prisoner. As the Prisoner, the player must fight their way out of a diseased island in order to slay the island’s King. The player gains weapons, treasure and other tools through exploration of the procedurally-generated levels. Dead Cells features a permadeath system, causing the player to lose all items and other abilities upon dying. A currency called Cells can be collected from defeated enemies, allowing the player to purchase permanent upgrades.

    I personally played it on my phone with a controller, but it’s available on all major consoles iirc


  • I get what you’re saying, but it’s not a black and white situation. Drugs and porn are not the same category. One will have life-changing effects, the other usually won’t.

    Plus, parents have the ability to mostly control a child’s access to inappropriate content, as well as tobacco shops.

    It applies in the real world and the Internet on a case by case basis depending on the inherent dangers of the content.




  • Responsibility for access to adult content needs to fall to the parents of minors, not the companies. I’m so exhausted seeing parents responsibilities being shirked and placed onto other entities/people.

    My son, 7, gets so upset with me and my wife because we are so unfair, because we don’t let him do/watch/play things his friends do. He’s 7, he doesn’t need to be playing Call of Duty, he doesn’t need to be watching inappropriate content, he doesn’t need access to TikTok, and so on. I’m forcing my kid to be alienated from his friends because the other parents are allowing children to access things they should not be accessing.

    I’m getting all worked up on my soap box, sorry. That wasn’t necessary.
