@chillywilly214 @Mid_NightCheese Kids now don’t have the same cues that we did growing up. With everyone on their phones we have lost some concepts of time.

@Her_Nonymous_D And this is why people give their kids iPad and phones because parents dont want to be judged when kids are being kids. The whole world adopted kids are to be seen and NEVER heard.!!!

@snubdogg Vague Posting has been a thing for a very long time. There was even a whole podcast show on reply all dedicated to deciphering cryptic tweets.

@austin_okere 1. Proximity. If a third space is not in walking distance it produces a level of friction that people may not be willing to overcome.

2. Competition. Social media has become the third.

3. Safety. Parents don’t feel safe sending kids to third spaces like friends houses.

@92playboi People aren’t ready to have that conversation though.

[Dr. Taurean Branch @EducatedAce]

This quarter zip trend is actually divisive and aligns with respectability politics.

In the same week you have Michelle Obama saying she knew she couldn’t have braids to get her job at the law firm, we are now debating and arguing how a quarter zip sweater is respectable?

I never heard much of Prince or MJ growing up. I did hear a lot of the Elements, Teena Marie, Pattie, and Luther.

Why?

[Dr. Taurean Branch @EducatedAce]

Amerie before Lyfe Jennings? Oh okay.

@Mappy6984 The cyclist is correct the intersection is Main and Danforth in Toronto. The far right line is for parked cars only and has now been converted into a dedicated bike line.
