We got the kids tablets for long car rides too. We let them use them as a reward. PBS Kids games and Epic (books) are good compromises.

the desert to the east of San Francisco.

Lol what the fuck? I assume you are taking about California Forever but desert is a weird word to describe the Sacramento River delta. It is one of the largest estuaries in north america.

Is it refering to people in their first year of university? If so in the US they are referred to as freshmen.

Its almost like rich idiots are running everything. Like they got their positions not from competency but from nepotism. That can't be true though.

HOLY SHIT IS THAT A HEADPHONE JACK?!

Seriously this ticks boxes Ive given up on. I never thought Id see a phone with all three: waterproof, removable battery, headphone jack. It even has wireless charging which isnt really one of my boxes but is a little extra if you use it.

You want other opinions on Lemmy but don't want to start a debate? That is a truly stupid position.

If you want to explore the nuances of pro/anti ai, go for it. I'm here with you. The person above made a point that the genie is out of the bottle.

"There are only two genders"

"Yeah, and there are only 3 states of matter! These woke scientists with their DEI alphabet soup of mattet B-E Condensates, and QSL, and DEGERATE MATTER! Its sick I tell you"

So my sister in law just got back from Finland and gave my youngest an oversized Stinky Tshirt. She loves it and wore it all day.

Ive heard good things about that comic, less so about the TV series.

A dark comedy take is Creamerie. Definitely recommend.

aka how not to be an asshole.
