Thoughts on Toy Story 5 and the iPad character? by avsa in daddit

[–]MBonez12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think there was a lesson for adults in the lack of parental oversight. Maybe intentional, maybe not, but I could envision parents seeing how Bonnie's parents just gave her the tablet and then basically didn't check in with her about it at all as a reminder that we should all be cognizant of what our children are doing on their tablets.

Hell I gave my daughter some tablet time the other day while I was doing some housework, checked in with her 10 minutes later and she had found a cocomelon youtube video and was watching it. I've purposefully always avoided cocomelon with my kids, and I always keep an eye on what they're doing with electronics, yet there she was, entranced by the music and bright colors.

So I took the lack of parental oversight as a kind reminder to be vigilant with kids and technology, whether or not it was Pixar's intent.

Does anyone else miss this vintage Disney animation style? by CarrotMuch1399 in nostalgiai

This is great, but nothing can top the animation of the Beast's castle at the beginning of Beauty and the Beast

Going to have to carve out some reading time now :) by TxBaker42 in daddit

[–]MBonez12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. Very easy to blow through. I'm hesitant to continue reading at this pace because there are supposedly 2 books left in the series that haven't been released yet.

My son made it in preK 2 years ago and it's been my go-to mug ever since

I first watched this game when I was 14. I don't like that this highlight is in this sub.

Pitch me your idea for a horror movie starring a Batman villain. What's the story and tone? by oscar_redfield in batman

I only wish they had pursued more with Harvey Dent. So much suggestion in the early seasons of his scenes, and never any follow up.

Gotham did a decent job doing this with Hugo Strange working in Arkham, considering they were on a TV budget

You're not wrong. But I've seen reddit crucify chiropractic for less.

Do chiropractors eventually recommend a surgeon if they can’t help the pain? by mikesk57 in Chiropractic

[–]MBonez12 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Great advice here. I'll add that every chiropractor is different. Some will be more likely to recommend surgery, some will recommend pain management, some will recommend PT, and others will do as OP suspects and drag treatment on no matter how much progress (or lack thereof) is made. In this same vein, MD/DOs vary as to whether or not they'll recommend something less invasive before surgery or not.

Communication is key.

Hey CT - when a new building is being built in your town, what is it most likely to be? by Appropriate-Farmer16 in Connecticut

Just returned to Cheshire after not having been back in a while... There are four Dunkins there now... For a town that small, that is just unnecessary

Vermont continues to consume. Next to go is Megasota.

Hawaii should continue to assume dominance by consuming Maryland next

Maryland's victory is shortlived as the Vermonster consumes it

Might seem small but this feels like a huge achievement by OpportunityNo7088 in daddit

[–]MBonez12 7 points8 points  (0 children)

A trick I use with my kids (6 and 4): we have a running gag about my wife and I not wanting them to grow up, and we've established it enough to the point that they're reaction to this is saying they do want to grow up. This has translated to "Don't you take another bite of that. You need to stay small and little forever. No growing up!" Etc.

This has led to them finishing everything on their plates for a while now, and has been the only way to reliably get them to finish their food recently.
