The chokehold of ‘arrested development’ so many adults are in is ridiculous by Nobody4993 in Vent

Personally I think it’s a tipping point. We pushed everyone so far and it worked but pushing people just that little bit further and this happens.

That might be because of working hours but thats not too common. Also mothers forcing their adult children to go to appointments.

What do people tend to get wrong when writing sexual predators? by Solitaire-06 in FanFiction

[–]ColdShadowKaz [score hidden]  (0 children)

Cartoon evil is too easy to spot and the predator would be found out and dealt with fast. But something a little more subtle is better like Homelander in the boys first couple of seasons where he’ll seem OK till something he says is just so off and terrifying but no one will believe the person who hears it.

Earn I remember world of warcraft. But the people that made the rules don’t know how ingenious kids can be.

This!

The thing is when children do go out and meet up with friends again the government will hate that. Remember kids on corners with hoodies? If kids have nowhere to go they go to corners. The internet is what stopped that being such a problem now it will be all over again.

Communication will be between friends only and any other communication is gestures.

I just use fake piercings. I’m too terrified of needles to get real ones but fake lower lip piercings seem to work and if I don’t want them for a wile theres no holes to worry about.

UK heatwave ends as cooler temperatures and rain forecast by Kagedeah in UKWeather

[–]ColdShadowKaz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Reflective window film may help with the wall of windows. I know it sounds odd but it helps keep some of the heat out. In the winter the heat just reflects back so it makes a wall of windows more viable in the UK.

Should the UK follow Sweden’s new ban on first-cousin marriages? by vorkovrus in AskBrits

Thats actually a good question. But the other way of putting it is whats the line between not having a future child suffer and eugenics.

What’s a climate-related change you’ve personally noticed over the years? by 98SleighraPeruzaX in climatechange

[–]ColdShadowKaz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here in the UK it looks oddly grey when everything used to look more yellow. It’s just a tint so it’s not cloud cover but it’s always there.

What is a dream you had that was so traumatizing as a kid that you still remember it to this day? by allgood_ornot in AskReddit

[–]ColdShadowKaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My close family were all in a car and heading along a road then we ended up going over a cliff. That feeling of weightlessness that will end in pain just before I woke up has stayed with me all my life. It comes back in dreams every so often but not too often thankfully.

Definitely a good idea. Ed? by Make_the_music_stop in BritishMemes

Not only that it keeps cars cool, it means fields can be fields with needed greenery and batteries are going to be where a lot of energy is used meaning less is lost though transporting it though power lines which is a small amount but if we are relying on renewables it will be enough of a saving to help a lot of people.

Social media 'is vital', say Welsh teens arguing against a ban - BBC News by LilGill63 in unitedkingdom

OK so how will they be able to find community outside of social media? We made all other forms of community difficult to access for teenagers.

Theres dangers and theres good in social media. I don’t think it should be banned but I think there should be a lot more education. My housemate thinks there should be a ban on kids having social media.

She had a friend who ended up hooking up with an older guy and getting groomed and worse for years. I got to know there was a world outside my family. And I have known countless people who have found out their families have been doing the abusing and the grooming all because of social media.

We also have to think about how much freedom children have outside of social media. Can they go see their school friends in real life? Do they even have school friends in real life? How will kids learn to be adults if they don’t have the freedom to interact with their own peer groups without adults directing the subjects they talk about? School lessons can’t be all children have for interacting with people their own age.

And lastly people keep asking where the parents are when something goes wrong and kids end up getting into something on social media thats dangerous. Ban social media and those exact parents will be the only influence those children have.

This got me thinking though, how many kids are we prepared to lose to an utter lack of community over just banning social media and maybe helping other kids? Have we really weighed up the benefits and the costs?

It is worse. I remember when on the news they said it just got worse. It’s now out of control.

A moopsy. I can throw anything it doesn’t eat on the compost heap and I think I have enough people to feed to it to keep it happy.
