I know it can be difficult, but soft voices and calming shushes do wonders for little ones. Mine was a big fan of the bouncy knee when he was upset. Also as someone from an abusive home, violence never teaches anything except fear. As they get older, explain the consequences of what they do, like if it will cause them to get hurt, or if fighting bath time will lead to less time for books at bedtime for example (time management). The key to gentle parenting is teaching consequences rather than punishment. They should always be tied to the action to be a consequence, I.e. if you do or don’t do A, then we can’t do B. Taking away D will only cause confusion and anger.

Other than that, have patience with yourself. It’s hard being a parent and as long as you do your best, and show them love, that will be enough.

I don’t have too major of a collection as far as quality, but I have been holding on to all my old Nintendo games and consoles since I first got them back with the OG game boy and NES, and I occasionally expand it when I find other old games I like when I have the money and can find them out in the wild. I have most of the consoles except for the more obscure old handhelds. (Still working on getting an original game boy advance to fill out the collection, but they are fairly expensive considering the costs of the later SP variant, which I have floating around.

Sorry, didn’t see the sub name.

The top three ••• on the top right is where the report button is, (at least on the Memmy app)

From my grandma, Est la Fromage, such is cheese, sometimes it’s sweet, sometimes it’s bitter, sometimes it stinks like Limburger.

Growing up, I would drive by a restaurant that was called the good view restaurant, it had a single small rectangular window at ceiling height on one side only and maybe three parking spaces that were always empty.

I agree with you, context for the act is important as is the nature of who is doing the act. In this specific context an Iraqi man burning his holy book as a sign of protest against a corrupt theocracy is perfectly acceptable. However if a white christen who is not from that region were to burn another religion’s sacred text for example, then this could easily be considered a hate crime as they have no ties to that faith and would, rightly so be seen as an act of hate.

Sorry if I rambled a bit.

Just found this instance, fellow autistic signing in.

Fair enough, just found you by searching after I got to lemmy.

Norse Pagan here, this tracks, most myths revolve around Loki getting bored or being forced to clean up his or the other gods messes.

Thanks for the heads up, I am new to lemmy, and didn’t know you could even view the mods for a. Instance. Doyou have a recommendation for a better dinosaur instance I could join?

I’m having intense flashbacks as each rpg I have played has either tpkd or close two at level one thanks to wolves. Entire group gets nervous when they show up.

I am a dragon who hoards random things from the internet and thought to share with others.

There is also a good bit of overlap where said alphabet mafia members release that chaos in a D&d game. My current group in the midst of saving the world, made it their mission to travel to the moon in a fantasy setting in order to open a bakery there.
