You cannot verify someone is over 18 without collecting data, and you cannot block specific types of imagery without monitoring private communications.
These claims make no sense.

how to go from friends to close friends:
(big part of adulting is practicing this!!)
tips:
> put yourself out there and hang 1:1, even if it's out of the ordinary for your relationship
> make new memories together - don't just be 'catch up' friends. you need to create opportunities for new memories together
> create depth. vulnerability is key. open up about your REAL life - something you want advice on. people bond through depth
> find unexpected overlaps - same hometown, a shared hobby, a same set of values - it's more likely to make the connection stick
> follow-up on what's meaningful to them - check-in about their stressors, how the project went. BE there for them
> experience something new - go on a road trip, an adventure, a concert, etc
> naturally, living close to each other helps with this process
> recurring, recurring, recurring - you need repeat interactions to build depth
> unpack the qualities in common with people you're already close friends with & find ways to get closer with more of those people
> let it happen naturally - not every friend is going to turn into a close friend. there are different seasons, reasons for our friends and that's OKAY! don't force what isn't meant to be there
don’t be disappointed if this process fails with someone. there’s a lot of factors that have to go RIGHT to make a close friend: both available, both looking to expand their circle, etc. it's usually never personal & it's always worth putting yourself out there.
the right people will match your energy!!!
i'm proud of you!!!
go make those new close friends!!!

Friendly reminder for Twitch viewers 🖤
Please do not make a streamer feel bad about running ads. Comments like:
“DAMN so many ads.”
“UGH hold on ads.”
“OMG how many ads?”
can make things awkward for the streamer, especially when ads help support the stream.
A more respectful way to say it could be:
• “Hold on, I am in ads.”
• “BRB, ads.”
• “Okay, I am back from ads.”
Happy Anniversary, The Sims 3!! 🎉💚
The Sims 3 turns 17 today, and to celebrate I wanted to create a cover of its iconic theme song.
Recording the guitars for this one was sooo much fun!! I also got to utilize my newest orchestral plugin.
