- Comment on Roblox, Discord sued after 15-year-old boy was allegedly groomed online before he died by suicide 2 days ago:
Yeah, I think there’s more that platforms can do to help but I don’t think age verification or reading messages is it either.
What really annoys me is how people will go… Parents should parent… But then nobody is helping them figure out the best way to parent a child on apps. How are they supposed to know what to do? They’re probably not on Roblox themselves, don’t know anyone who is, don’t understand it, don’t know how best to talk about it with their kid, etc. Parental controls are great but not enough, parents need help to do the best thing. They aren’t all knowing and this shit is changing all the time.
I think it’s the responsibility of parents to parent but it’s also the duty of the company to help them understand their product and how best to help their kid and it’s the duty of us all to look out for the most vulnerable in society.

"Roblox allowed Ethan to turn off the parental controls "
If true, this is very damning for Roblox.
Parents can’t be everywhere all the time checking what they already set up, that’s unrealistic.

I could give you great stories about the benefits of working from home too.
I agree we are social animals but we are also in varying life stages, we have different needs and wants, we are diverse as a species. Flexibility is the answer, not one size fits all now and forever.
- Comment on Microsoft mandates a return to office, 3 days per week 6 days ago:
It’s about what you support rather than what you currently are comfortable with. Do you support flexibility and future proofing your job against your personal life circumstances? Probably yes. Then you support flexibility of workplace.

It could be legit and a peaceful way to go but so far that’s not how this administration has operated. So it still could be legit but what a massive risk that is to take.

- Comment on Imagine if the only thing limiting your dreams was a livable income 2 weeks ago:
Good employees should be recognised by employers to boost morale and encourage other. Keeping good employees who know the place and all the history is good for business. That’s what’s in it for the employee. Other than just being nice to someone who’s been in your life for so long.
I agree that attendance isn’t necessarily good and shouldn’t be rewarded. He likely came in sick and employees without a healthy work/leisure balance are less productive so it’s not a good example to set either.

Seatbelts are uncomfortable for me. Most of then don’t adjust for height so I am always having to move it away from my neck. I still always wear a seatbelt but legit uncomfortable.

Curious if this works where a woman is trying to stop a man touching her.

That’s good. I haven’t had anything though, hopefully saved by the EU.

Anyone know if this is happening outside the US and if it is whether it’s happening inside the EU?

All of my community groups are on there, including the school parents one. My choice is to not participate in the community or have Whatsapp… Or worse, Facebook.

Looks like it’s just trying to be controversial. The Irish are fine, they have nothing to be ashamed of and lots to be proud of. Most of the world either doesn’t know who they are or loves them.

I think you’re underestimating the normalcy bias and overestimating how much the average person outside the US understands about what’s going on there.

I get it, but if you pitched this to a movie studio they’d say it was far fetched, so the average person can be forgiven, I think.
