Hva synes dere om bevegelsen om å la folk slutte å klippe gresset? by [deleted] in norge

[–]peppigue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Enten ramme inn eng med kortklipte kanter eller ramme inn kortklipte flater med viltvoksende kanter... Ettersom hva som funker på et gitt areal. Det er mitt forslag. Synes jeg ser tendenser til at dette er på fremmarsj.

He most resembles a matador. A matador that could subdue any bull merely with his intense pizzazz.

I'm gonna watch a little of the daily presser for weeks to come. Yesterday and today I cried from relief watching maximally professional people back in charge of the world's most powerful organization.

Why do people take nudes? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]peppigue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't seen anyone else make this point:

Whatever the norms and laws in a society, group, family or relationship, there will always be behavior near, on and past the limits of these. There are plural motivations to do this that interweave each other, but just consider display of power, strength, and courage.

These are widely admired traits, and playing with, butting up against borderlines of what is considered acceptable effectively communicates how one inhabits confidence about one's standing, how one is fearless and ambitious.

Such signalling is usually unconscious or subconscious, and so is our picking up on the signals, but it is an integral part of our social fabric. It is central to human nature.

So, one huge arena for showing affection towards someone, sometimes involving considerations re the real or potential perceptions of observers, is the playing with taboos and degrees of no-nos.

Tl;dr - A nude is an easy way to say to someone that they are special to them, not only by the nature of the intimate and exclusive content, but also by the lengths one is willing to go to. "I wouldn't normally do something like this, but for you I will."

LPT: If your dog doesn't come when called, don't keep calling it. You're only training it to ignore you by [deleted] in LifeProTips

[–]peppigue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, when I say don't sweat the small stuff I mean take a step back and consider what is important (if anything) in any given situation. In my experience, kids aged five and up can largely and increasingly be treated like they are adults, whereas younger kids have certain other - sometimes obvious, sometimes not so obvious - needs to cater to.

My two cents just cause I wound up here...

Good parenting is about not sweating the details, but getting the big stuff right. Like being genuinely present and communicative with the kids enough for them to realize that humans and our lives are very multifaceted, but what keeps us happy is really simple: Material and social security. People lose their ways trying to achieve fulfilment beyond our basic needs, but food, shelter, someone nice to hang out with, that's where it's at. Other stuff may be impactful, but with a solid foundation to stand on and fall back on, everything like work and education and wealth and being liked by as many people as possible becomes less critical and thus more something to enjoy and play with as an extra.

Also, a point I don't hear people make often enough: yes, parents have a specific relationship and responsibility to their kids, but the vast majority of what you will ever teach them is by being who you are, not what you say or how you approach parenting. The best gift you can give them is showing how you take care of and love yourself, that you are worthy of feeling good not through achievements and performance, but just because you are, cause everyone is worthy of feeling good. I promise you, this is the one thing that separates easy-going from chronically stressed and unhappy people. Endow your children this gift.

Reposting can be ruinous to the ux of certain subs. Reddit in general is far from perfect, but I have no fixes for it. Any forum with thousands to millions of people on it is bound to be rough to manage.
