my 7 year old blows me away consistently with her Minecraft builds. it’s a genuinely good way of getting kids in a creative space while knowing they aren’t in online cesspools like fortnite and Roblox.
- Comment on New York Times 1924, Hitler leaves prison 2 weeks ago:
gonna jump in here to say you have a point. i was raised by Christian extremists and they basically worship martyrs. i was raised as a CHILD to prepare to be martyred for god. it is a noble, righteous thing. Trump being killed would have only fueled things further and created more fanatic activity imo

Stretches of the Mississippi River within the park corridor exceed water quality standards for mercury, bacteria, sediment, PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyl), and nutrients. Unfortunately, these “impairments” can make the water unsuitable for fishing, swimming, and drinking. Mar 6, 2023

genuinely asking… how do you ever find relevant results on duckduckgo? I’ve tried switching to it many times over the years but i just get too frustrated by its lack of intuitiveness.
- Comment on NCSoft president: "The games industry's evolution towards acceptance and diversity is ongoing" 1 month ago:
please elaborate. because from what I’m seeing, people are outraged over just having more character creation options or more variety of characters. i can’t see how that’s exclusion.

- Comment on Adopting a stray cat 2 months ago:
i could throw in my own anecdotal experience of being raised owning dozens of cats over my life, that the outdoors is very dangerous to tame cats. my dad counted it as a win if a couple kittens from each litter of our tamed barn cats would make it a year. even out in the country we had “traffic” kill a decent amount, and the wild animals did the rest. not to mention eating partially rotted dead animals and getting sick, etc.
but I prefer data, which shouldn’t be that hard to find. :)
