Personally I’m more on the [Charles E. Caouette ]specialist side. Kids are not good or bad, they’re asshole because they don’t know better.

I’ve read a really interesting treaty of anthropology on kid a while back. It was written like a « how to parent book ». TL;DR there’s two opposing-ish view to parenting kid 1- kids are inerrantly good, because they come from god and blah blah blah (most westerners countries) 2- kids are inerrantly evil (devil pawn) and parent have to make them learn restraint (IIRC middle eastern countries)

On a purely pedagogic note a Canadian specialist have said : L’enfant n’est pas là pour faire notre affaire, il est là pour solliciter notre intervention en vue de l’aider à être et à devenir ce qu’il veut être. [Kids are not there to do our biding, they’re here to solicit our intervention to help them become what they want to be]

That’s good advice. I’ll tried to remember the saying

A Mom’s friend of mine had a saying which was (translated) : we eat shit according to our appetite

Gaming is not the answer

You cannot be the one to do the job for two persons in a relationship

Also I suggest that you take an appointment with a shrink

Because Devs will have the managers on their ass from now on.

Does the guy (at Wired ?) that bought a Trump Phone got his phone finally ?

Yes

I remember a low key production (maybe mexicain) where the protagonist is a Drone Pilot called : Dream_Something_

Which is the title of the movie but I cannot remember what it is

That’s not defusing time. Karen is an entitle pos.

I’ll say Pink Floyd fan (or antifa). Facist love to dog whistle, in my experience if he was, there will be more sign on him

Ask Israel that

When I was a kid : no, nothing that I remembered

However I’ve worked in school, working with kid at diner time, etc. One day my « manager » come see me and say « hey, tribble, it’s seems that you don’t clean behind yourself when you use a room » (which wasn’t true but turn out that a teacher was angry at me because I’ve cut some paper at his chair). Fine I’ll be careful, etc, etc. Months later a teacher confiscated a toy to one of my group’s kid and locked it in his desk (the toy was one of mine and come from my budget), the teacher acted outside of his hours. I go asked the toy back, not to give it to the kid but to put it back where it go, teacher say « I’ll do it when I’m finished » ok no problem, bye good night.

Weeks later my manager ask me to see her in her office « Tribbles we have complaint about you … yada yada yada »

There’s 3 or 4 pages of complaints on me, first time I heard most of them but there’s the paper one blow out of proportion at the point that’s is laughable and the toy’s story where the professor alleged that I nearly menaced her. That was so unbelievable, they were so enfantine about it.

The toy was a finger skate 🛹

America were always (at least since Carter, 2nd world war ? Not American I probably forgot my president) colonialist in their exterior politics… now they’re facist about it.

Dumbest timeline

I live somewhere where French is prevalent but there’s also an important English community.

When people are speaking in English on break there’s normally no problem … but ! If you speak Arab, Spanish or even Creole on your break you’ll probably lived exactly the same thing you experienced.

My point is … racism, pernicious racism and control

If he do it on his own time, without FBI equipment, and you can prove that’s your device I’m pretty sure that is okay

I think YouTube is actively trying to force user to use its app. Sometimes YouTube show me an error message that I cannot have a full screen on my IPad and the next day I have no problem being in full screen.

I’ve seen a scientific calculator

No. People respond the way you talk to them. If you support someone that was never civil it bleed on you and you’re not entitled to the same respect as an anonymous stranger on the internet.
