#responsibility level of a kid

[party-gilmore]

I’m sorry but if you don’t want your kid to be on a fucking [electronic] all day… maybe don’t give your kid their own [electronic]?

#maybe it’s just the Grew Up Poor in me but like #your kid shouldn’t have their own computer until they need one for school. The Family Computer out in the Common Area is perfectly fine. #your kid shouldn’t have their own gaming system/tablet/smartphone until they can get a job and pay for it themselves. #sharing the Family Console/Devices promotes time management/limitation and sharing and internet safety/security on public #’networks’ (in this case… public DEVICES but… same core concept) #and a text/call only phone is all they really need and is MUCH cheaper especially given the average dexterity situational awareness and #responsibility level of a kid #and if you’ve done your job right they shouldn’t feel uncomfortable looking up anything they need to/are worried about on a shared device #since you should’ve been establishing honest and open and trusting communication from the beginning #but hey shit happens and if you weren’t able to lay that foundation that’s fine that’s what LIBRARY TIME is for #I’m serious start a routine take your kid to the library at least once a week and give them free reign I mean FREE reign #(as long as their behavior is appropriate) #and they can have some time to access whatever info they’re not comfortable asking you about

Finally listened to Dylan Mulvaney's song and?? I don't get the negative hype about it, it was frankly a cute song. Also the "playin' catch-up 'cause we missed the pre-game" made me laugh, it was a good line. Dylan, you've done it again!

#trans #transgender #lgbt #lgbtq #it just sounds like... a normal pop song. the only problem is the auto tune. i'm not against auto tune but whoever mixed it... #...did not make it seamless. i'm bad at recognizing auto tune but i could hear it #the thing that sucks is auto tune is now like... industry standard but nobody who is responsible for doing it seems to do it right #to me it's justa cute song about learning to appreciate and admire life and the women who helped. like it's pretty normal #i don't even follow dylan i just think she's. a relatively normal person as far as being a former theater kid can get you #if you were in theater or band your normal rating goes down at *least* a tier level. often more than one. ask me how i know. #anyway. listen to the song i think it's cute as hell. i'm always a sucker for songs about appreciation and gratitude

I still think it's insane that Carol was 18 when she had Vic. Carol Dallon had Victoria when she was 1 year older than Brian Laborn. Age of finale canon Taylor. No wonder she was like that.

#carol dallon #it doesn't excuse how she “raised” her kids but like. goddamn #that's an insane level of responsibility for An Eight Teen Year Old #and she was in law school too. LAW SCHOOL. #wormblr #carol dallon's personally constructed torment nexus a la magrias derglass

today someone asked which fantasy high character i relate to the most and it was just me staring in 'quiet mixed kid raised in all white household who did all 3 years of middle school at once and loves taking things apart to tinker with them' like who do you think

#to be fair the person asking is only on freshman year #and i relate to a lot of other bad kids on some level #(queer. social chameleon finding my own identity. always the responsible one in a group. etc) #but really gorgug is just so me. esp this season #i think before this i might have related to riz the most but everything gorgug is dealing w in fhjy is something i dealt w #even w the teachers hindering academic acceleration! #i had to actively fight the whole school district to get enrolled in high school early #i had to take a trial class at the ap level and do iq tests for them to let me take standard freshman classes after i finished 8th grade #and even after that we had to argue with the district superintendent #anyways!! don't mind me dumping life events in the tags lol #fhjy #d20 #gorgug thistlespring

Oh. OH. Very interesting...

Speedsters getting pulled into Flash Time™ when other speedsters are around/using their powers isn't exactly a new thing. Their brains pick up on speedforce activity when it's in a close enough proximity and they instinctively match the speed.

But being unable to slow down? That's interesting.

That suggests to me that this tower thing is emitting high levels of speedforce energy. The speedsters are unwillingly absorbing it like flowers on a sunny day. They couldn't stop even if they wanted to.

I'm willing to bet that this energy emission is on purpose. It powers all of their tech out in the field. Their ships, their weapons, their men, everything. It's actually genius, they broadcast energy like they're a radio channel and only their guys are capable of picking up the signal. They probably had no clue that Earth was populated with organic receivers fully able to tune in.

I mean, look at Jai. He was up to speed with the rest of his family. That's not really something he is capable of doing on his own. Jai was hooked up to a triple dose of speedforce energy like the rest of his family. Jai froze when he grabbed that tree to shield everyone. He channeled all of his power into his super strength. He still is channeling all of his power into his super strength.

#i would say that maybe their subconscious fear response won't let them slow down #but then Jai would still be fast as well #its a power level thing. jai redirected his and the others didn't #which is very neat and again goes quite nicely with my theory that the tower is their energy source #and if you take the tower down they all go down #dc #dc comics #the flash #kid flash #wally west #impulse #bart allen #speedsters #ace west #linda park #irey west #jai west #one minute war

Potentially the only good thing about the SCOTUS affirmative action decision is that now whenever white moms are being delusional and accusing us of not admitting her kid because we’re “discriminating against him for being a straight white male,” I get to say “actually due to the scotus decision (that you’ve been so excited about for years) all racial and ethnic identifiers are blocked out from applications so we literally are physically incapable of seeing them when evaluating so this was based on your child’s academic skills which I gotta say. Not great”

#she doesn’t have a response to that!!! #eat shit karen #scotus #affirmative action #us politics #also this for dual enrollment in high school!!! if ur kid is already struggling in high school courses don’t stress them out #by making them do college level classes while also doing all of their high school work #which she is holding him back from graduating from high school #so he can continue to do dual enrollment after he’s technically eligible

I request a governess polin au, hell we can add kathony too.

So let's say that in this au, Kate never went to London and Penelope never had London debut. To help with the family finances Kate set out to become a nurse/governess (I am aware they are two different positions, but just roll with me.) After discovering Lord Featheringtons debts Portia only had enough money to debut one more daughter. After debating she decided to place her bets on Felicity. Neither ever met the Bridgertons.

Somehow Penelope ended up as a sort of apprentice/partner to Kate and the two found a good job within the house of the Duke and Duchess of Hastings. With two of them they are able to take care of the children, Auggie, and Amelia, when they are younger and later teach them as well as any other children the Duke and Duchess may have.

The two get along well with their employers and they have each other so the loneliness that usually comes with their kind of position isn't as bad.

Then comes 1816 aka the year without summer. Things were wet and cold, some of the ton had decided to forgo that season and stay in their country homes. One of those families was the Bassets, who decided to invite the family to Clyvedon for the rest of the season, with possibly taking some time to go to Aubrey Hall.

Of course Kate and Penelope are also at Clyvedon, helping take care of the young lord and ladies.

"Oh Kate, Penelope," Daphne greeted as she walked into the nursery. "You two can take a break for a little while. Just bring the children down to the drawing room, my family will be here soon and I'm sure they'll want to see the babies."

"Yes your grace," Kate and Penelope bowed.

"Thank you-," Daphne cut herself off with a yawn. "Oh forgive me on that."

"It is alright your grace," Kate said.

Daphne fought another yawn as she walked out of the nursery.

Kate and Penelope looked at each other before letting out soft giggles.

"I suppose we'll have another little one soon enough," Kate said as she held onto Auggie's leading strings in one hand and held Belinda in another.

"Good for us, it keeps us employed longer," Penelope joked. She gently bounces Caroline, while her other hand holds Amelia's leading strings. "Looks like you won't be the baby for long young miss."

Kate grinned. "That it does."

The two lead the children down to the family drawing room where Simon was waiting. After that they were temporarily free for probably most of the afternoon if this was like the other visits from the duchess' family. Not that Kate and Penelope haven't really had any more than brief glimpses at the infamous Bridgertons.

After that Kate went to take a walk while Penelope went down to the kitchen for some leftovers cook left since she missed breakfast.

Enter Anthony and Colin.

Anthony had ridden separate from his family as he had to make a stop on the way for business. Unfortunately this also meant that Anthony had gotten caught in the rain on his way. Colin had gotten back just in time for them to leave and had not yet had a chance to change out of his traveling clothes nor a chance to really eat anything. Suffice to say they did not really look like sons of a high bred family.

Kate just happened to be passing by when Anthony rode up to Clyvedon.

Kate had to stop herself from raising an eyebrow at the soaked man who was foolish to ride out into the rain. If she had to guess he may have been one of the tenets. Just as they always did during the first day of guest arriving, the duke and duchess gave strict orders that they are not to be disturbed.

"Excuse me," the man said. "You could you direct me to where Simon and Daphne are?"

Kate was taken aback. She has never heard of a tenet being so informal. "I'm sorry sir, but their graces are not seeing to any business today. The duchess' family had arrived today."

The tenet looked annoyed. "I assure you they are expecting me."

"Sir," Kare sighed, then yelled when he pushed past her. "Sir!"

That's when Kate heard the bell designated for the nurses and governesses. Well fine, she'll just let her employers handle the tenet.

Meanwhile Colin had sneaked down to the kitchen. He was a growing boy after all, and he hadn't eaten all day.

He was surprised to see a cute red down there happily eating an eclair.

"Is there anymore?" Colin asked her.

Penelope jumped, just barely catching the custard that fell. Turning towards Colin she did in fact raise an eyebrow. She has not seen this man before. Penelope could place almost all the servants at Clyvedon by face and she has seen this one. Plus his clothing does not look like anything any of the servants would be wearing. Nor is he looking at her food like anyone else she has met before.

"I'm sorry sir, but this was the only one Cook had set aside. The rest are being served to her grace's family," Penelope said.

The man's eyes lit up at the mere mention of more food. "Really? Oh must show me where they are!"

What was this man? Some kind of interloper? Penelope would rather not show him where the duke and duchess are, but blast. It looks like she might not have a choice. That was the bell to summon her and Kate. Well hopefully if he does follow the duke will take care of it.

Kate and Penelope met at the entrance of the drawing room both of them looking at their partner with a questioning look at the strange man following.

Before Kate or Penelope could stop them the tenet and the interloper both walk into the drawing room.

"Anthony!"

"Colin!"

Oh fuck, Kate and Penelope knew those names. Those were the names of the duchess' brothers, the Viscount Bridgerton and the third Bridgerton. And now among the rest of their siblings Kate and Penelope could see the resemblance.

#anthony and colin: pretty lady😍😍 #daphne: QUIT TRYING TO SEDUCE MY STAFF #so in general a governess was a daughter to a middle or upper class family that generally fell on hard times #it was not an enviable position since they were basically outcasts among the staff #generally born too high and too educated for the rest of the staff but also not on equal level to their employers #the one they more than likely worked the most with was the nanny since they both were responsible for the raising and education of the kids #I would've done the saphne kids older but i thought 1816 would fit better due to how cold it was that year and indoor bound others would be #bridgerton #kathony #polin #governess au #kate sharma #kate sheffield #penelope featherington #anthony bridgeton #colin brigerton

I watched hitting the apex and I’m beginning to think Jorge Lorenzo was the only one with at least semi normal parents in the way of how they viewed his injuries and racing like his dad wanted him to stop because of a crash he had just before he started in the championship.

Compared to Vale’s father who views his son has something he can brag about that seems more normal to me. I’m not sure about Marc and Alex parents but at least Marc had Alex cause I can’t believe he was gonna race in Indonesia in 2022 after that warm up crash and the only thing that stopped him was Alex told him not to race.

okay first of all jorge has maybe the LEASTTTTT normal relationship with his parents it is actually insane. i encourage you to google it because JEEZ. second of all like. i appreciate there is maybe some nuance to the situation here, but we don’t know if marc’s parents asked him not to race/told him he shouldn’t! i can’t speak too much from when he was a teenager, but he was 29 years old in 2022. and had been holding the responsibility of the family’s finances on his back for nearly a decade. AND he’s been very successful racing with injures in the past…. like it’s a complex relationship! and i have no doubt some people told him not to race (they didn’t remove all of the tires from his personal bikes when he was rehabbing his arm for NOTHING. they did it because he had probably IGNORED THEM in the past. that’s not something you just DO) but i think it’s incredibly notable that alex was the one that he LISTENED TO. that didn’t fold when the full force of marc marquez’s freakish force of will pointed itself at him. it literally HAD to be alex

#also as a kid whose parents got them involved in extreme/dangerous sports. there is an element of doing it because your parents want you to #but at least for me! they often also let you quit if you don’t like to do it. which happened to LOTS of my friends #my brother quit kayaking before me! picked it back up at like 20… it’s more complicated than that but he’s doing it because he wants to… #motogp #callie speaks #asks #marc marquez #more complex thoughts on how hard they should’ve pushed and that level of responsibility but i don’t WANNA type that. #live with your own conclusions

[worstloki]

it's actually ridiculous that all 3 special grade sorcerers were teenagers at the same point in time. two of them were in the same class and the other was often overseas... were they just sending Geto and/or Gojo on any dangerous mission that would come up the entire time???

#frankly i'm surprised Gojo didn't ditch them when Geto did #responsibility to save lives aside that sounds like horrendous working conditions #like 'sorry but you two kids are the only ones who can handle the threat level. try not to burnout' #????????????? #jjk #how did they not leverage that against jujutsu society to ask for a vacation every now and then how did it get this bad

[acrobattack]

i don’t know if this is a hot take or not but the rr/b skew more neutral than evil to me

#at least when they’re just on their own and not actively following the orders of grown-ass lunatics #they could objectively be doing worse #but the way they’re written they’re just really obviously kids with no actual guidance trying to have fun #the most actively evil thing they’ve done is pay lip service to destroying the power/puff girls sometimes #and then just never really. attempt it? #and i’m comparing this to the ppnkg who actually Are evil #arguably Also because of the way they’re raised but still #their actions lean more actively dangerously malicious than an annoying child with powers spiting you because you happened to buy a soda #all of this to say i just don’t buy when people refer to them as irredeemable or naturally immoral or anything #i think they’re naturally *mischevious* but as far as them maturing/the possibility of being rehabilitated #realistically they could truly go either way #this isn’t really a response to any particular takes i’ve seen though i’m just rambling #bubble journal #i know a lot of people don’t like that about them and want them to be more threatening #i personally like it a lot though i mean it’s definitely how I would’ve written characters like them i think #and i think making them shittier would just turn them into full ppnkg clones #and it would also make less sense for the girls to even let them keep living if they were full-on horrible constantly #like . kill them!?!?!!?!?!? are you nuts!!!?!!!!!!?!? #that’s like an av3ngers level threat you’re letting run around town

What’s Nebarra’s opinion of Kash?

…. Is team LDB really so desperate for people they’ll bring in an actual child? Is probably one of his first thoughts on the matter.

I think as he gets to know her he’ll find some of her traits rather admirable. Her self reliance for one would be something he’d back handedly praise, probably with something to the tune of “I can’t believe a child is more competent than most of you”. I could also see him quietly admiring her independence in not really caring about what her argonian bretheren may be up to.

Fundamentally speaking though, I think he disagrees with the idea of bringing her with the team. And thinks her whole “refuse me and I’ll just keep adventuring” stubbornness is a display of reckless stupidity only found within the youth, something that’ll probably get her killed someday.

Children are oftentimes more a hinderance in a survival or combat scenario than a help. If Nebarra was to get dropped by an enemy in a dungeon (purely hypothetical obviously), what hope could he possibly have that Khash would be able to drag his armoured, fully grown body of at least 140 pounds out of danger? It just wouldn’t happen. He’d be toast. Same goes with difficult to traverse terrain and the like, he couldn’t possibly expect Khash to ever be able to help him at the age and size she is. It’s just not practical. And this will likely be what he would explain to the LDB as his reason for disapproval if they asked.

There is a small amount of his concern that is less settled on practical matters though. With how often he is tormented by his past, he would hate to see Khash get a head start on that kind of torment at such a young age solely because she was too stubborn to leave it till she was older. Or maybe never pick it up adventuring at all.

Tl;dr he thinks some of her traits are admirable, but she can be stupid and reckless in the way only kids can be. Doesn’t treat her poorly. Or more so than he treats anybody else, anyway.

#I’m working with 2022 level knowledge here if I’m wrong I’ promise you #it’ll hurt me a lot more than it hurts you #also also in terms of less practical matters #I think part of him would be thinkin about like. if this kid dies we are gonna have to bury her and that blood will be on our hands #ldb rlly wants that responsibility??? are they nuts???

[riphimopen]

#my art #beavis and butthead #she was neglectful to hell and back yes and she could get bitter and mean when she drank but damn if she didnt try #like. butthead hates marnie straight up because marnie was deeply depressed and unable to do much and routinely verbally abused the kids #shirley on the other hand was. yknow she was the strict mom and she was very particular about keeping up appearances and she definitely wasn #t a good mom. but she kept food on the table and generally kept her contempt for the kids to herself. bc on a level she knew beavis wasnt #responsible for his being there but she still resented him for it #and of course she was taking care of marnie at the same time and having to deal with a kid that wasnt even hers #lays facedown in a ditch. shirley. #that part in do the universe really unnerved me like i was genuinely sad abt that. and you wouldnt believe what she did once she blew throug #h the settlement money #shirley beavis

[dyketrickfoot]

the pcs who went through their stories as children being the ones to give up their humanity in the trials is so fucked up i need to kill someone over that.

#rosamund gave up true love mother goose gave up a page of his book (tbd) pib gave up his story. AND THE KIDS WILL NEVER BE HUMAN AGAIN!!!!; #none of them did anything wrong. none of them should have to bear that level of responsibility. but they have to #gerard was a kid when he got cursed. what could a little boy have done so wrong that he deserved that. #pinocchio started off having to earn his humanity and to do that he had to balance being a perfect son. no one is perfect. #ylfa was just a little girl who lost her grandma all she had left of her were her memories. #who her grandma made her to be who she wanted to be. and she gave that up to be what the world needed her to be #just. i'm gonna lose it dude #neverafter spoilers
