why there are these tiny Toblerone bars now.
Scandinavia has lots of social support for having kids along with career and they still have really low birth rates.
>>> depression, anxiety, behavioral problems, sleep problems, body image issues, addiction, psychological problems, headaches, and other problems in children
These issues should only provided by government controlled facilities like schools or summer camps!
why social media is supposed to be more harmful than 24 hour news channels, 5 hour World of Warcraft dungeons or google with safe search off.
With "tracking" I mean recording your interests. What should be required to build a feed.
They still get to track my behavior but I stop getting the benefits of said tracking?
I assume that black Helen was added to qualify for Best Picture while the other thing was between Nolan and Ellen for old times sake.
They need to remake that Marshall Brave Starr episode so the kid dies from doomscrolling. That will set them straight!
Ruin them? How? By feeding them more of the stuff they like so real life is boring now? By showing them stuff they would earlier have gotten from goatse or rottencom? By showing them the rotten political underbelly of society that in old times would have agitated completely without their knowledge? Why is this "addiction" worse than what World of Warcraft or 24 hour news channels did?
Worst outcome: Age verification / identity verification for everyone, parents just give children their ids because all their friends are on social media, same shit but with less anonymity.
How about a species of Peter Dinklage clones for any future Snow White remakes?
Sounds like Facebook was lurking in a bush jumping at kids passing by without any initiative from the kid.
Social media has no nicotine. Social media has no tar. The whole reason social media makes "addicted" is because it serves people large amounts of stuff they find entertaining. The situation is similar to when TV offered 24h cartoon channels in the 80s or with broadband in the 2000s. And the solution is the same: Send your kids ass outside if you think they consume too much.
And yet there are traits that are tendencially more often in men than in women: Aggressiveness, willingness to take risks, thinking either purely emotional or rational, cultivation of body strength. This is both the product of biology and culture. Men spent the last hundred-thousand years as hunter, warrior and worker and it feels consequential that your body and instincts would cater to that. Reckless driving and drinking might be arguably seen as expressions some of these traits but since they provide no real value for their risk they fall out of fashion. I think the reconsideration of what is regarded as "manly" is mostly driven by the recognition that most traditionally male values are deemed not useful anymore in a world without war, hunt or risky expeditions so men are expected to fit in whatever role civilization has in store for them.
And while men did indeed invent romanticism women can have it too and they both tend to set different emphasis.
To get something done, a committee should consist of no more than three persons, two of them absent.
