Here. I have lots of energy since the patriarchy can't fuck me without being gay. Sadly it's empty

Yeah. I was worried about the fighting against it thing. So far he seems to like speaking English, but just limited. I try to make it really cool that he speaks two languages. We also have a thing where he teaches me the local language and I teach him English, which is true since I'm not native in the local language.
Basically trying to balance pushing and being careful of being overbearing.
Yeah. I've tried to press that sometimes I don't understand when he speaks the local language. It's true because I used to not understand children in the local language, but I do now 🫣.
Honestly I think I need more non native friends with children.
Yeah. I did this unconsciously just to verify I understood since he's a toddler. It did seem to help with comprehension. I just can't get him to speak English 😅
Yeah I've been trying to do this. He definitely had this because he gets excited and surprised when people speak to him in English.
Yeah, I'll do it in like a week
I'm going to introduce a bill that makes it so kids float if they fall off buildings.
Let's see who's physics defying politics wins first.
My experience is completely anecdotal, so may not apply. Your toddler is like 2.5 years. I found it hard around that age, but after calmly setting boundaries, explaining why and being open to negotiation, at around 3 it became super easy.
Tantrums for my kid are 99% of the time just because he's hungry. I just explain this to him during and after the tantrum. Like "so you were really sad before, but after eating you're happy now right? Do you think that would help next time you are sad?" Now he will sometimes tell me he's just super hungry when he's upset.
Other than playing with him which I enjoy, he's like 70% in auto pilot.
Are you from one of those socialisms that I was told about growing up? I'm so glad you managed to find enough food to survive to adulthood.
Why? This is a perfect opportunity to burn more of the forest without worrying about rain!
We will soon succeed in the extermination of one of the most destructive and violent species to exist on earth!
Simple physics demands that this use less energy.
E = mv^2/2.
Say cars are 10x the weight and drive 2x the speed of an electric bike. That's 40x energy.
Additionally, bikes are more likely to have less erratic go/stop behavior, so even more efficient. For example, I'm much more careful to coast on a bike than a car because it's my energy.
