raises a glass Parenting is far from easy.
I agree wholeheartedly.
The only instinct a child has to get attention is to be disruptive. Eventually they learn patience, better verbiage, and how to time their interactions with others. Time isn’t really a concept yet and things are almost an “on/off” switch.
Hunger doesn’t exist during playtime until Hunger is activated, in which case, Hunger is all that exists. Hunger can only be eliminated with help as the cookies remain furiously out of reach. HELP!
“Attention-seeking behavior” is “hey I need help with something” in their first language. It’s up to the adults to figure out what’s going on. Finding out why they are being disruptive helps, a lot. If they feel they’re being ignored, work out spending time with them as reassurance… when convenient. If they’re hungry, take a moment to procure a proper snack, and then they’ll be satisfied. They might not even know what they need - do any of us really - and that’s where listening can be helpful.
Again, time not being easily explained such an on/off age.
I am not a child therapist. I’ve just worked with too many “difficult” kids.
Reminiscent of goatse
Anthropology major I think part of the argument was that since all primates share a common ancestor, when does it stop being functional for reproductive purposes? Is Tuvok sterile like a mule?
Seriously this is why I stopped watching these things with this person. It’s like watching a war movie with a veteran.
I feel like a lot of it is “translated” to match human emotions. That person wouldn’t actually be considered attractive, but the movie makes them attractive in a weird way so humans can relate. Green lipstick on a Vulcan would be EXTREMELY off putting to a human, in literal stark contrast. To make a Vulcan “attractive” it would be on human terms with our sexy red lipstick or… it may have the wrong effect and not tune emotions in properly to the scene. It’s a huge reason why I hated watching Star Trek with a particular individual I know. “THOSE TWO SPECIES COULDN’T BE BREEDING! THE HORMONES ARE ALL WRONG AND THEY DIDN’T DEVELOP IN THE SAME…” and on and on.
The blushing thing absolutely should be green, but I get why it wasn’t characterized as such. Friggin apes.
Teddy Bear King, making his subjects make subjects
Please generate image of a whimsical workshop filled with teddy bears engaged in an endless cycle of life and death has been created. In this scene, old teddy bears are being taken apart and their pieces used to make new teddy bears, all under the maniacal eye of the crowned teddy bear king from his high throne.

If I can do minor tweaks that would be very helpful! Thanks!
“Private iDetective” starring ai-Rick Rossum and Veronica Lake.
I tried oh-so hard to get it with text, but I haven’t secured a contract with that particular demon yet… curses Midjourney
"Private iDetective" film poster starring veronica lake, and a robot sidekick. in the style of sci-fi noir, graffiti-inspired illustrations, film noir, golden age, retro-futuristic, 1940s-1950s, medium shot, balanced, three-point lighting, high-key lighting --ar 24:36
I added my own quick title just for fun afterwards
Knew a guy who insisted he wasn’t addicted, but he can’t go a day without attending an AA meeting. 40 years, non stop. Even when in other countries for work, he finds them. Left his own daughters wedding dinner to make it to one.
He runs his own chapter where he lives. He’s had people follow the steps, sure, but some don’t. No matter how successful the latter are, he tears them apart for “not doing it right” and has turned his back on them for not following how he did it.
My take on it: trying to tell a barbarian they hit the edge of the map, physical character limit [Bing]

Joker the Eldian Titan vs Nothing Moves the Blobman
You totally only live once
*You know I’m dark, I’m Bat, you know it
(Bat, Bat, really really Bat)
You know I’m the Bat, you know, woo
(Bat, Bat, really really Bat)
You know I’m the Bat, the Bat, you know it, you know
(Bat, Bat, really really Bat)
And the whole world knows I’m dark and I’m round
Just tell me once again who’s THE BAT*
I also tried the Joker. Bing cycled through three different ones [Leto, Phoenix, and Nicholson].
While Midjourney was squarely team Ledger even through a few tweaks…
But this one is my favorite in terms of sheer wtf-age
