@aakashgupta That’s a lot of words for midlife crisis.

@wil_da_beast630 I know a few friend groups that are like that with white guys, but they all died of drugs, suicides, and motorcycles.

@LowStudies @cirnosad That’s great and I’m happy for you. Would you tell your younger self to not get married and have kids?

[Smithers @Smithersfor]

@LowStudies @cirnosad Why would you think I meant children when I said toys, instead of actual adult toys like vehicles and hobbies?

@MurderMittens9 @LilaGraceRose You can break all sorts of laws that aren’t enforced. What country are you living in?

Why cant men stop thinking about Ancient Rome?

Well, it was the world's most powerful empire for 500 years...

It boasted of roads, public baths, & much else that was miraculous for the rest of the planet

Then came the Great Fall

What happened has lessons for the world TODAY👇🏻

RAN (1985). My son was in the mood for a samurai film. He also loves big epics, so watching this masterpiece -- which I hadn't seen in nearly 20 years -- was a no-brainer. What most struck me my prior watch were the colors & compositions. This time, it was the depth of despair.

A thread🧵

*Save this post and never run out of conversation starters with your kids*

Getting to know our kids is one of the most important things we can do as parents

But surprisingly, a lot of parents I talk to don't know where to start

The answer is simple, we just need to get in the habit of talking to our kids

And one of the best ways to do that is by asking questions and getting their opinions

So I hope this list is helpful for you all, providing you with an endless supply of conversation starters

As a dad, I treat this like a dialogue. I'll ask my oldest a question from the list, then he'll ask me one, and we take turns answering

Because as important as it is for us to get to know our kids, it's equally important that they get to know US.

@NadasBubblegum @drose_2k @greentexts_bot Yeah but you said that because you didn’t know a water fast is literally drinking water and not eating food. Your remarkable ignorance has gotten 10x the likes as the actual truth of what a water fast is

[Smithers @Smithersfor]

@NadasBubblegum @drose_2k @greentexts_bot Lol you’re a perfect example of a lie making it across the world before the truth can put its pants on
