My kids are just winding down a 'first week of school party' at our house. I'm not sure how many teens we peaked at... Around 12 14-17 yr olds. This is a semi constant around here, roughly 1-2x a month for most of the year. I'm sure at some point it'll happen without us here.
This assumes you have cell access. Not everywhere in the world does.
If you haven't seen these charts, they're a bit scary. The global surface temperature of the oceans continues to break records every couple of days. And is heading nowhere but up, up, up.
So true. And yet... I'm also not surprised.
We were/are always just honest with our kids. No, we don't think there's a god/goddess/whatever. When we/grandma/grandpa/whoever dies, they're just gone. Nobody knows where the universe/world comes from. As far as anyone knows it's several billion years old. Explain the big bang as best as we know it. Etc.
There's no 'right' way for so many things when it comes to kids. Ours know that many people believe in a god. We don't. That's ok.
The 'litter boxes in the bathrooms' continues to come up, like clockwork every few months. It's absurd. As fucking if anyone has ever actually put a litter box in a bathroom in a gods damned school.
The level of overall 'civic engagement ' on Lemmy has been pretty great.
Yeah, the growth of world, ml, beehaw, and Lemmy in general over the last month is pretty incredible. I'm on five instances. And they've all grown incredibly.
I have accounts on 5 instances.. you kinda need multiple accounts IMHO.
Connect was ok. Give liftoff and/or summit a try.
Kinks mean the process is working.
I'm currently rotating between liftoff and summit. Slide is what I can't wait for. I was an avid slide for reddit user for years.
Give the Lemmy app devs another week or so. And for now, keep testing.
Eh, I wound up with a YouTube premium subscription years ago when I subscribed to Google play music, way back when it was YouTube Red. I cannot imagine going without at this point. It became YouTube music at some point, and... Yeah.
Right? After years of feeling like the only pro-firefox person left on the planet, the pro Firefox sentiment lately is a breath of fresh air, to say the least.
That's either July 8, or August 7th. Depending on... Well. What whoever was writing it meant 😁
Now you just have to be patient while you wait for them to ripen...
So what we all need to be doing now, is figuring out how to grow things without massive quantities of artificial fertilizer use. By simply using manure and compost as has been done for millennium.
I'm trying connect now. Jerboa keeps crashing like madness on me...
