Those “teach girls its okay to hate/not like kids” needs to die. Not wanting kids is cool. Not wanting to be a mom, 100% okay. Hating kids simply for being kids makes you an asshole. If you think hating/disliking kids is okay then unfollow and block me. This hating kid culture somehow weaved into liberalism is so gross.

"Should parents read their daughter's texts or monitor her online activity for bad language and inappropriate content?"

Earlier today, I served as the “young woman’s voice” in a panel of local experts at a Girl Scouts speaking event. One question for the panel was something to the effect of, “Should parents read their daughter’s texts or monitor her online activity for bad language and inappropriate content?”

I was surprised when the first panelist answered the question as if it were about cyberbullying. The adult audience nodded sagely as she spoke about the importance of protecting children online.

I reached for the microphone next. I said, “As far as reading your child’s texts or logging into their social media profiles, I would say 99.9% of the time, do not do that.”

Looks of total shock answered me. I actually saw heads jerk back in surprise. Even some of my fellow panelists blinked.

Everyone stared as I explained that going behind a child’s back in such a way severs the bond of trust with the parent. When I said, “This is the most effective way to ensure that your child never tells you anything,” it was like I’d delivered a revelation.

It’s easy to talk about the disconnect between the old and the young, but I don’t think I’d ever been so slapped in the face by the reality of it. It was clear that for most of the parents I spoke to, the idea of such actions as a violation had never occurred to them at all.

It alarms me how quickly adults forget that children are people.

Dear Kpop fans

I don’t know if some of you realize the fact that Seungri’s scandal wasn’t about something simple this isn’t about weed or copying someone’s song or driving under influence this is about someone who raped or lead the way for others and allowed human trafficking inside his own club plus there a lot of people including politicians and police officers and other idols involved in this .

11 victims have been confirmed by the police there are videos as evidence and group chats that got leaked talking about rape and leaking videos of others .

And after all of these things seeing some of you supporting these type of men by calling them OPPAs hun I’m still mad at myself for stanning such a monster  and you are here saying he is innocent what else do you want .

Stop defending idols because you think they are who they show on TV stop supporting them blindly loving their songs buying their stuffs is so different from supporting these kinds of actions imagine if something like this happens to any of us how would you feel seeing people supporting the person that done you wrong how would you feel people attacking while you are the victim wake up none of are kids you are all either teenagers or adults you know that these things are wrong stop supporting idols blindly #StopSupportingCriminals

Listen, time’s running out. Will do something about it?

Y'all don’t GET how much I want you to win for yourself. Every time I write my posts, I have one (1) thing on my mind: please let this help someone snap out of their BS and allow them to go win.

Staying in a negative environment has made me realize that you have to take care of urself. No one’s coming to help u “get ur shit together”, you have to do this for yourself because you realise you deserve so much more than the shit you’re experiencing now.

People ask me why I’m ‘motivated’ and it’s really funny to me. You’ll be motivated too if you knew what being unmotivated feels like. What it feels to be numb and hate your life. What it feels to be feel you’re worthless, incapable, out of control and unhappy. What it’s like to be dead inside, look back on your life and want to cry, because you haven’t done anything for yourself, you just existed and forgot to live.

Please don’t do this to yourself. Y'all don’t know how painful it is to live worthlessly. It’s a numbing experience, when you drift aimlessly, voicelessly, but on the inside, you’re screaming because!!! this ain’t it, chief!!!!!

If you’re experiencing what I’ve experienced, listen. Take ONE step today. Do something about this thing called life! Make your bed today before you leave it. Write next day’s to-do before sleeping tonight. Read a self-help book, and this time around, TRY the things the author tells you to. Try out everything—art, sketching, acting, baking, writing—to find what truly brings you joy. No tips or articles or videos you watch will help unless you so something with the shit you consume.

So in short, fuck existing, try living.

Please look after your happiness. Please. Protect it! Don’t let yourself die this way, it hurts I KNOW, but you’ve GOT TO do something about it. And you’ve got to start soon, for time is running out.

Try something different today. Fix yourself. Heal yourself.

Try. Go make your bed.

polyglot-studyblr’s guide to French numbers for English speakers:

I have recently found myself teaching French numbers a lot, so I thought I should make a wee text post with what I hope is a straightforward explanation of how French numbers work. Remember I’m not a native speaker of French, but I’ve been studying and teaching it for a long time. 

Numbers 1 - 20

there’s nothing too fancy about these, it’s just a case of learning them unfortunately! These are the basic numbers…

1 - un 

2 - deux

3 - trois

4 - quatre 

5 - cinq

6 - six

7 - sept

8 - huit

9 - neuf

10 - dix 

11 - onze 

12 - douze 

13 - treize

14 - quatorze

15- quinze

16 - seize

17 - dix-sept

18 - dix-huit

19 - dix-neuf

20 - vingt 

Numbers 20-70

notice how from 17 onwards the number takes a new form? For example, 17 is written as 10-7. This is the structure that French numbers use above 20. So for example:  21 - vingt-et-un 22 - vingt-deux 23 - vingt-trois etc…  take note that the word for 21 uses the French word ‘and’, making the number 20-and-1, but no other variant uses that. So for 22, we just say 20-2. and so on and so forth:  30 - trente  31 - trente-et-un 35 - trente-cinq 40 - quarante 41 - quarante-et-un 45 - quarante-cinq 50 - cinquante  51 - cinquante-et-un 55 - cinquante-cinq 60 - soixante 61 - soixante-et-un 65 - soixante-cinq

STOP! This is where it gets intense… Numbers 70 - 79 

Unfortunately this is the point where French numbers decide that it’s time to test out your mathematics skills. Good luck with this!  70 - soixante-dix  as you can see, the number for 70 is literally 60-10. This applies to all the numbers in the ‘70′ bracket. For example: 

72 - soixante-douze  60 + 12 78 - soixante-dix-huit 60 + 10 + 8

Numbers 80-89

Do you think you’re following it? Time to change it up again! How are your multiplication skills?  80 - quatre-vingt The number for 80 is literally 4-20. So you may want to think of 80 as being ‘4 x 20′. For your numbers in between, just add on the extra numbers!

82 - quatre-vingt-deux 4 x 20 + 2 88 - quatre-vingt-huit 4 x 20 + 8

Numbers 90-99

Lucky for you, these numbers work very similarly to the 70s…. 90 - quatre-vingt-dix Here we are adding 10 to our number for 80. So 90 = 4 x 20 +10. And so on and so forth! 

92 - quatre-vingt-douze or literally, 4 x 20 + 12 98 - quatre-vingt-dix-huit or literally, 4 x 20 + 10 + 8

100s, 1 000s, and 1 000 000s! 

Here are the words for some of the larger numbers… 100 - cent (hundred) 1 000 - mille (thousand) 1 000 000 - million (million) 1 000 000 000 -  milliard (billion)  all of these are simply added on to the start of your number! Here are some examples…  130 - cent-trente  100 + 30 450 - quatre-cent-cinquante 4 x 100 + 50 1975 - mille-neuf-cent-soixante-quinze  1000 + (9x100) + 60 + 15 2015 - deux-mille-quinze (2 x 1000) + 15

I hope that this has been able to help some of you who have been struggling with French numbers. Feel free to drop me a message if you still do not understand, or if you think I have made a mistake somewhere! Good luck!

A little something for my fellow LGBTQ+ Jojo fans. Next time someone tells you there is nothing “gay” about Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure, you can show them this. Page 59 of Hirohiko Araki’s Manga in Theory and Practice book.

“Obviously ‘bihet’ offends a lot of bisexuals, so we need to come up with a better term for bisexuals in m/f relationships.”

How about… and hear me out… this may sound crazy…. but you… continue to call us bisexual… because (and I realize this gets confusing for you people so read this next part slowly) it turns out we continue to be bisexual regardless of who we’re dating.

This is the smallest wildcat in existence. The rusty-spotted cat. If you aren’t blown away by how small it is, those are LEAVES that it’s crawling under and around.

If the last chapter was screaming, now i have no voice right now!!!!

Again, the little giant has a resemblance in Kenma’s eyes, and now the name looks (?) or maybe i’m overthinking

rewatching haikyuu!! is so brutal. the first episode literally is just both kageyama and hinata being so alone in entirely opposite ways.

i honestly can’t comprehend how someone could watch the first episode of haikyuu and want the manga to end with a kageyama v hinata showdown. like i can’t imagine how furudate could put more evidence that kageyama and hinata both work better and can be happier together

[syagoofs]

i don’t even know what to say at this point…. just…..
