‘Twould appear there are 9. It’s a regular Jerry’s apartment up in here.
That is a lot of cereals. I feel like when we get cereal they usually just sit in the cupboard forever until I decide to eat them on the weekend. I believe we have a box of Reeses Puffs up there right now.
My youngest is in 3rd grade and can't spell for shit. She does good on spelling tests but then it's like they just blank out of her brain. Considering my middle kid was just in 3rd grade 2 years ago I would think I'd have a better handle on whether this is significantly worse than where he was. It feels like it is.
I was trying to get my daughter to come have breakfast this morning, so I stuck my head in her room and called her name. I see her sitting in the corner, wearing a bathrobe with the hood pulled up so her face is somewhat hidden. And she goes, "There is no P3. Only darkness." Pretty normal and not at all creepy behavior.

Middle kid has been begging to go do an escape room for a couple months now, we had some downtime early on Saturday so we got it set up, and I might be an escape room person now. It was really fun. Kids did a pretty solid job of helping out and planning things out. They're kind of ridiculously expensive for what they are but I think maybe if you just do a walk-in they're a little cheaper?

I've done 2 of them, both as a walk-in. That was ridiculously expensive too. I agree they're really fun. I'd do them a lot more often if they were more affordable.
At this point it’s truly insane to let your kids have social media or really any internet access for more than a short time per day. Letting these kids sink into the digital world is borderline child abuse.

even the 🦍 knows AI is no good and should be stopped
But TikTok is fine right?
tiktok won’t replace jobs etc etc
I think honestly like you said to start, parents need to pay more attention. That kid was 14, you wouldn’t let him sit and watch pornos all day, know what I mean?
There should 100% be laws that put age limits on social media, AI, etc. This stuff is terrible for kids (and adults for that matter but I prefer age restrictions to bans). I know it would be harder to enforce than like, alcohol laws for example. But it needs to happen.
I understand the sentiment behind “AI is coming for our jobs,” but I just can’t get mad about it. People were up in arms about electronic tolling putting toll booth operators out of work; there was some big protest in NYC about how putting self-service buttons in elevators was gonna cut 10,000 jobs, etc. Life is objectively better because of technological advancements that at the time do have the unfortunate side effect of putting people out of work. I guess there’s a line at some point where too much automation just means there aren’t enough jobs. But I remain generally in favor of innovations that improve society. And if the next iteration of that is that the longshoremen are replaced by robots and our ports are 100x more efficient, fuck em.
