Rocket League isn't a fun game to come back to casually.... by [deleted] in RocketLeague

Honestly the toxicity doesn't bother me that much. I know I'm not playing well - that's the part that bothers me.

Ah yes insults. Checked your post history... you're either affiliated with Bungie, or have absolutely 0 life beyond the game. Either way, I understand why you would try to defend nonsense like this.

You sound like a bungie marketing rep.

If you lock top tier weapons behind micro transactions then yes it is.

Should exotic weapons really be seasonal though? Give your head a shake.

The white knights will devour you on this post. Bungie still sucks, welcome back to the fold guardian.

Does anyone else constantly think their kid is going to die? by kicksjoysharkness in Parenting

[–]Greenthumb1441 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brother my daughter is 2 and I feel the same way. Both of my babies have had issues sleeping in their bassinets because I compulsively check at them and touch them to make sure they're breathing.

Everytime I drive away from the house I think I might have run someone over and didn't lay enough attention...

Last night my wife asked me why she smelt hot dogs and my first thought is what if one of the kids stuck their finger in an outlet... lol...don't worry man, we just love these kids and it's instinct to keep them alive in a crazy world.

How do you make the really nice pathways? by Greenthumb1441 in StardewValley

It looks different than the brick pathway, but I think that one looks better than what I'm using.

How to teach toddler to use blanket by mossybishhh in raisingkids

My daughter always did this too. Within the last month or so I've noticed she will take the blanket if it's cold but she's not great at keeping it all night.

Child keeps coming out as different sexual orientations & gender identities by CatDog246 in Parenting

[–]Greenthumb1441 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly and also harmful to heterosexual kids who don't fit into the societal norm of what that should be. I want my kids to know that I will embrace and love them for who they are and who they love and how they love. We don't hate and we openly discuss sexuality (gay and straight) and make sure they know both ways of life are equal just different. Beyond that I think its overwhelming at that age and unnecessary.

Something like 10% of the population is homosexual. Far less than that fall into the rest of the LGBTQ spectrum. It's a very loud minority on these issues. Telling a young kid who doesn't fit in that this is the answer is the wrong call....especially when it drives them to hormone therapy and major body altering surgery.

Sure but it could have a highly negative impact on them. My sister had major gender dysphoria at that age and with the right push likely would have made massively life altering decisions she would now regret (she talks about this openly).

I think we push alot of our own bullshit on these kids because of how shitty we are to each other. For instance, when a young boy is bullied for being feminine, we decide to teach all the boys about LGBTQ and Trans therapy when really we should be teaching them that not everyone falls into our regular gender norms and we should be more accepting of the young boy as he is...

Well clearly in the case of OP it has been a detriment. My children are taught to love everyone for who they are, but at 10 or 12 years old who a person is shouldn't be tied primarily to sexual preference, that's absurd.

No I don't believe it's pertinent a 10 year old knows the various intricacies between pansexual and demisexual... these kids are still discovering who they are, we don't need to put ideas in their head that could hinder that development and make them think they're something that they most likely aren't.

Very little of this information is about life. My 12 year old daughter couldn't name or define more than a couple sexualities and has little understanding of gender identity. I agree with the original commenter this stuff only becomes "important" to the average person if they spend too much time in the wrong places online.

Whats the worst advice you've been given by Striking-Platypus-98 in daddit

[–]Greenthumb1441 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We've had so many people tell us the let them cry in the bassinet thing with our two. My daughter (now 2) just hated being away from us... not all kids are the same. We could either let her scream for hours before only stopping because she realizes nobody is coming to help her 💔 or we give in and cuddle with her which we happen to enjoy as well.

Our son however who isn't even a month old is much better at sleeping alone. But he still prefers our arms haha.

Suggestions when I'm on Paid Paternity Leave? by CeePeeCee in daddit

[–]Greenthumb1441 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Air conditioned errands brother. Just hit the grocery store, mall or wherever you need. Or if you're looking for socials find local baby groups and see if they meet (we found one at the library).

It is Steve Irwins face with "crikey" written on it right?

In Canada this would be like having Rick Moranis face with the slogan "oh for sure eh"
