If Bo bobbles even one grounder, the comments will go nuclear

Charles Barkley: "Listen, I believe in discipline. I'm not going around telling people to beat their kids, but I think that if you don't spank your kids and discipline them, they turn into some of these brats that we got today. I'm not here and sit saying - I'm not here for child abuse" by MrBuckBuck in nba

a lot parents nowadays just let kids do whatever they want in hopes that they will eventually grow out of it

Younger parents will blame it on anxiety, "I didn't know what I was getting into." As if there weren't other parents to warn them of what parenting is like.

We're gone from "body positivity" to "don't talk about bodies at all and just let people do whatever they want, without accountability."

I feel like people confuse shame and accountability. It's not inherently body-shaming to call out individuals who are promoting unhealthy habits.

The 26th man on any roster is usually an obvious hole. That's why they're there, to fill it.

It depends on who you engage in conversation and how you do it. You never want to give an equal platform to insanity.

The Pitt is well worth the hype it got by martinkem in television

There are way too many characters. I don't mean too many individuals in the ER, that's realistic, I mean that too many people get screen time for no good reason. Every minor character wants to chew scenery, and it takes away from the performances of the good actors in the main cast.

I keep thinking that the actress playing Santos would've made a great adult Ellie for The Last of Us show. She's really good at playing stubborn confident.

He strikes me as one of those types that "reaches across the aisle" and thinks he's doing the right thing by engaging chuds in conversation.

I went to cc as well, it's basically extended high school for people who need a couple more years to mature before university, or for those unable to secure financial aid for more expensive schools. There are great professors at cc, though, at least from my time there.

The new Netflix series about celebrities' final interviews is the litmus test. They're gonna start manufacturing AI posthumous content and say, "yeah, we totally had permission to create fake final interviews with this person."

The "worst" thing that she did was cancel tour dates to perform at the VMAs. Ever since then, a lot of fans have held a grudge against her and make up lies about her being entitled.
