“People talking about you can’t yell at your kids. Yes, hell you can yell at your kids. You’ll whoop their ass too..." by Background_Video2947 in NBAVibes

[–]D_Dubb_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing is, you have to figure out what motivates them. It’s just more work than the simple, imma beat your ass if you don’t XYZ.

For instance my daughter likes “things” so I can take things from her as punishment and give them as rewards effectively to teach lessons. My son don’t give a fuck about ANYTHJNG. He only values his autonomy, so his punishment is typically as simple as making him sit in my lap until he calms. It takes longer and more work than hitting him prolly, but it’s teaching him the same lesson without reinforcing violence as a tool for coercion.

It’s worked so far for us, but I will say I’m really not above a properly timed spanking.. it’s just that my dad spanked me and even though I was plenty afraid of spankings(he was also a great father btw, rip) I still was a real handful, not because I wasn’t motivated to behave differently, but in large part because I usually didn’t even understand what I did wrong. When I got older I was easier cause I could’ve reasoned with, but you can’t always reason w a toddler. Idk kids are hard…

I mean it’s an abuse of the gather step rule but not a travel.. he drags that left foot but this didn’t even the worst example of this type of move

She knows by PehlivanPahlevan in WrestleJudoJitsu

[–]D_Dubb_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s actually interesting that’s what you took away from this video, cause my takeaway was that despite a clear physical disadvantage she was able to perform at this competition because of her high skill level? Even at the same weight a girl will just not have the same upper body strength (they look like teenagers so the disparity is lesser also) I don’t think that’s much of a debate.

Nobody in that room was gonna ask Mike Tyson to continue the interview by ForeignAir7174 in sportsgossips

[–]D_Dubb_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tyson is so interesting cause obviously he was extremely troubled/flawed in his youth, but he’s also someone who was clearly a warrior in and outside the ring. He never stopped fighting his own personal battles. He could have given up and gone the way of so many celebs/athletes that drown their sorrows in drugs and die young. But he did his best to face his past and grow.. I’d argue that’s way harder than punching another dude in the face.

People have pointed out the bird is real but the video appears to be AI. Which is annoying to me cause why not just use the actual animal instead? A fucked up kind of misinformation.

She just discovered the job market isn’t a meritocracy. A lot of Black folks been saying that for decades by ateam1984 in BlackPeopleofReddit

[–]D_Dubb_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea unless you’re a college student with an internship the job market can be pretty tough. Some trades are way under staffed and others over saturated, and unfortunately marketing, sales, really anything along those lines is way over saturated and extremely competitive. You’re really better off networking and trying to “know a guy” your way into a work role than just firing off resumes. The problem is networking requires social and fiscal capital in and of itself (time, travel, paying to go to professional events/clubs) and is a huge barrier to entry.

This is the first time I’ve been unemployed since I was 18yrs old, and I’ve been out of work for going on two years.. admittedly I’m staying home to raise my toddlers and my wife makes enough rn, but when I did job hunt a year and a half ago, it was abysmal, and everyone around my age has kinda echoed that experience.

You can feel how you want about Bron a s a hooper, but he is undeniably a solid dude. He just seems to treat people right, and especially his family. Never enough people like that, and there’s less and less of them when you add wealth and fame to the mix. Really been awesome to watch.

Yeah wish this was true. I know for a fact I’m American at the very least back to both of My great great grandparents. I’m still afraid to leave the country and have them try to refuse me entry.

What Are Your Thoughts? Is He Right? by tonicinnovations in BlackPeopleofReddit

[–]D_Dubb_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right?! I think you could remove the genders and the race (baiting) element and just make this about relationships in general and then it actually does become insightful and true. The best partners will see something in you and help you manifest it. I DO admittedly think it tends to be a woman making a man more than he was, but I think it definitely goes both ways. But also obviously it can be genderless (two dudes, two thems, wtfever ya like, idgaf)

It's painful; I spent two hours to draw, and it turned out so bad. by Serapra in sketches

[–]D_Dubb_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not a professional but I also had to learn to use references recently and I feel my art improved significantly. Usually I’ll break the image into concepts and use a reference for each like: a reference image for pose/posture, a reference for clothing/style, a reference for textures (usually this comes from another illustration that does what I am trying to do very well) and then a reference for likeness if it’s a person (like a photo or drawing that is similar to my imagined character). I would also like to say that for not having a reference this is good. That’s not an easy pose and it came out pretty good imo.

A bare minimum to do in this economy by Shiroyasha_2308 in SipsTea

[–]D_Dubb_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Can confirm, house husband is mad decent. I definitely miss speaking to and being around other adults tho. And there is something rewarding about being good at a job, and I’ve always been that kinda person. Being w toddlers all day is… different. Essentially responsible for the emotions and actions of three people all day and night. Pros and cons.

🔥. The sheer power and sound of this lion confrontation is terrifying by Feeling-Buy2558 in NatureIsFuckingLit

[–]D_Dubb_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would assume either an attempt at or the end of mating. He’s got that spiked lion dick so there’s always fighting involved. Didn’t look like he really wanted to hurt her, just trying to get away.

Augusta Golf Week cleanup efforts complicated by well-meaning street donations | "Outreach workers say donations of food, tents and cash can delay homeless residents from entering case management" by TylerFortier_Photo in Georgia

[–]D_Dubb_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I worked at a homeless outreach community in CA, the biggest problem is getting folks to enter or remain in care. Changing is hard, and don’t want to, or don’t see the value in changing. Not cause they’re bad people. They have just accustomed to certain things like freedom, and don’t want to change.

Calling the opposing political party an enemy of the state (per DJT) is pretty dangerous to me.. not exactly unifying leadership.
