this reads like a conservative trying to wokepost. gotta use keyphrases (even if incorrectly) to make the youth feel bad about making empirically correct decisions about having children to get the birth rate up!
Gen Z is generally very into eugenics when it comes to birth: they seem to believe children should only be born to parents with perfect mental health and finances, not too old (under 25) or old (over 35), with exactly one other sibling but that sibling should never be disabled…
@RightsRobins people use the term "eugenics" way too broadly now. i don't care about the circumference of my future child's skull. i do, however, care about them being happy, healthy, and having the best possible outcome.
@RightsRobins you can be neurodivergent and have children, healthily too. and it is irresponsible to have kids when the man is above [x] age. also, yeah, i don't think it's right to bring a child in the world if necessities are scarce.
don't get why it's bad to want the best for your child.
@yurilover99 i feel like hybe realizes they made money off of people reacting negatively to gnarly and have just kinda run with that. no hate to idols under the label specifically, but every gg release from them is just a worse gnarly.
@icutmyownhairs you're in the right. harsh in your phrasing (which isn't inherently wrong), but in the right.
they're dealing with vulnerable populations. if they cannot manage the requirements of that they're doing more harm than good as a therapist.
@jbillinson i've only been a tourist in new york but i go pretty frequently. manhattan little italy is just 50 of the same gift shop and some good spots for food/drink (a good chunk are not italian). cannot speak for other boroughs, but i feel pretending it's an enclave modern day is insane.
@chester_sus i say this as an autist with unemotive eyes when posing for a photo. i can't speak for him, but i'm just reading it within the lense of what people have said about photos of me doing similar shit when posing.
@chester_sus i honestly just think he has really unemotive eyes and that throws any kind of photo off. he looks like this in music videos and interviews too. pair that with not taking it as seriously as a cosplayer and it just doesn't quite work.
do respect him having fun with it tho.
one thing i dont get with the whole mitch mcconnell discussion is people saying "oh if he was dead, standard protocol is to do X"
he was a major politician. i would put money on the majority of americans at least knowing of him. they would not be following standard protocol.
@sissythatpatch yeah idk how people have this idea on alcohol vs weed. i get giggly and social when drinking, i go into the worst anxiety/borderline psychosis every time i smoke. i am NOT laughing or chilling after weed.
@hannikomunis nobody is saying min heejin dreamed of the newjeans concept as though it was purely beamed down from god. but illit literally was formed off the newjeans blueprint. what are we doing? what's going on?
@hannikomunis gllits in the replies here are making me chuckle bc like. yes. every piece of art/creative concept comes from multiple points of inspiration/experience. the issue with illit is that newjeans was the singular direct inspo. and internal memos make it clear that was the point.
@kary0t it's the jaw/chin+midface definition. these look like white teenage boys in wigs. i think a lot of the issue here is that there's little to no highlighting/fat in the cheeks. the only one i would say looks girlish is no. 1, and that's bc she looks kinda like anne hathaway.
@Cstorm1166 it's not as simple as "give your kid food and if they don't eat, they don't eat". and that isn't the medical guidline for dealing with this. it needs to be kid-lead if you don't want your kid to be weird about food forever.
@Cstorm1166 i am an adult with this condition. that does not work. it is a *disorder*, not picky eating. i do better with it now/have more safe foods (as an example, my no. 1 is a very specific modified cheesy gordita crunch). but if a safe food is unavailable, i just won't eat.
