@ghosttyped absolutely. Plus whoever’s making cocomelon has done a very good job figuring out how to get the child to keep looking, which (imo) is by guaranteeing a scene cut before anyone’s attention span runs out.
It’s so very confusing that most parents, and many early childhood researchers, use the phrase “screen time” to mean “watching videos.”
Good creative tools really get thrown out when people demonize the “screen”
My daughter is constantly creating– her passions include making art, writing fiction, coding interactive games, and composing music. Some might say my husband & I are terrible parents… because she does all these things on screens 1/
@arash_tehran The easiest strategic solution for Israel to pursue is a final solution. Way easier than 2 states. Way easier than one secular state. Way easier to sustain into the future than one religious state.
In that context, shouting THIS IS TERRIBLE is the right & moral thing to do!
@jasoncoxnc@constans@Noahpinion Coates said that killing 2% of a population is wrong on its own, regardless of what those people’s leaders did.
Are you equating that with saying Hamas is ok?
@constans@Noahpinion I don’t even understand Azizi’s post.
What is the benefit to mentally separating “moral exigency” from “materialist analysis & strategic thinking?”
Is “materialist analysis & strategic thinking” the analysis that says to go bomb?
@baym Well, I do have acquaintances in SF who’ve done those last 3 things (sex selection, genetic selection, surrogates cos they just want to). The middle 2 are common.
This signull guy probably thinks “from scratch” is mostly used for emphasis (like “literally”)
@constans@Ilozue716@agraybee we can hold those things at the same time, right? bus bombings: bad. shooting a friendly photographer point-blank: bad. t shirts celebrating a bombing: bad. forcing people to move or die based on ethnicity/religion: bad. bombing whole buildings to off a few targets: bad.
