Aye. Anyone who idolizes Rorschach is the same person who idolizes Tyler Durden — they’ve missed the entire point of the character in the story.
Ooooo honey, how much?
You absolutely don’t have to! Parenthood is not always an instant connection. I loved my child, sure, but they were more like a needy roommate to start off. I developed the bond as we went. It eventually clicked after some months.
And remember: you always love your child– but it’s okay to have times where you just sometimes don’t like them. Especially good to remember during the toddler stage!
Yeah, babies are ugly. Don’t think I’ve ever seen a baby I would consider “cute”. Grody little misshapen potato humans.
Yeah, it’s true.
Honestly, I didn’t even like mine, to begin with. But they grew on me. The hormones had me tolerating all the craziness that small creature put me through.
Love 'em to bits now that they’ve grown past that stage!
As someone who has a child and is also a survivor of abuse: it’s in very poor taste to compare babies to abusers.
Herps herps herps!!
Yeah, he’s a silkback. Less of a “morph” and more of a genetic nightmare. Definitely would never recommend to anyone who doesn’t have a ton of time & money to spend caring for them, + extensive experience with bearded dragon care. A leatherback is the best option of you’re looking for a bit of a smoother dragon!
Revy is adorable!! What breed & morph is she?
You’re correct! But he has a genetic defect, so he looks pretty different from a standard healthy dragon.
He’s a bearded dragon with a genetic defect that caused him to be born without proper scales or spikes.
Because of that, he’s a “special needs” animal, so he needs lots of extra care to keep him healthy.
I’d definitely recommend (fully scaled) bearded dragons as pets! Mine is an excellent cuddle-buddy and constantly makes me smile with his dumb goofy antics and curiosity.
I think I’d buy some bugs for my lizard. Maybe some hornworms? They’re very good for hydration and basically every reptile that eats bugs goes absolutely crazy for them!
If my buddy is happy, then I’m happy, too.
Here’s a picture of my ugly boy, Pączki.
Please don’t horrify me with such things when I’m having such a nice day.
Peak t-shirt slogan humor, I’m sure. Very ironic. 👍
I honestly don’t mind it, as my kid and I also bond and joke over quoting homestarrunner & other online media.
I think it’s only an issue if the kids can’t “turn it off” or have no other interests or hobbies other than doing things online.
Plus, it’s middle school. These kids don’t really have themselves figured out yet, so constantly parroting popular memes can gain them some acceptance from their peers.
You’re right, my apologies. Been a good while since I’ve cracked open the book.
Either way, good wholesome biblical tales for the whole family!
My kid is in middle school, and the current thing is calling out to “chat” out loud if something interesting happens.
“Chat, is this real?”
“Chat, did you see that?”
“Chat, do you know the answer?”
Etc.
Some kids are already “terminally online”.
That was the daughters of Noah. You’re mixing up your Bible lore a bit.
I was wrong! My bad on that.
“Helping people is gay”
I second Michigan! I live here, and the middle-state cities here are typically full of left-leaning young folks.
The farther north you go, though, the political leanings get worse. Definitely recommend mid & lower Michigan, though.
