I never sent a list out of rules for interacting with my newborn, but these all seem fine to me, honestly. I know people are taking issue with the dog one, but the newborn isn't going to act out destructively if it feels suddenly replaced in its home. A pet might.

“Jax” is her dog by the way

@GrailCavalier @Strangeland_Elf Maybe they’re worried we’ll mistake him for a spaniel
English
@Strangeland_Elf Is there even another living king named Charles?
English
He is a King and his name is Charles. Expecting Americans to know or care that this (accurate) name they are calling him is not “correct” is idiotic.
Kaiser Milo@KaiserMilo3
@Strangeland_Elf Because those are his names/styles/titles?
English
@Graculus01 @jane_whisky @Strangeland_Elf Check the quoted tweet, because this stuff that “no one” does is exactly what he’s arguing for
English
@jane_whisky @Strangeland_Elf No one refers to "his majesty" except in official documents or functions, either.
And who can resist calling him "King Chuck"
English
Why would you expect Americans to use most of those when he isn’t their king?
Benjamin Lewis@tc1415
Can we please note that it's (almost) never "King Charles". Any of the following are fine though - His Majesty the King - His Majesty - His Britannic Majesty - The King - King Charles III (the III is not optional) - Charles III (never just Charles, you need the III again) - Charles III By the Grace of God of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and His other Realms and Territories King Head of the Commonwealth Defender of the Faith (ok maybe don't use that one)

@focusfronting Or do they have drug allergies requiring uncommon prescription, and are not taking that into account

@CLE_Lauren @ChristianityOn @GambelerQuail PDD-NOS was pretty broad, it was the original Dx my cousin and I got. I’m about level one, he’s between levels 2 or 3, but had some additional factors at the time that pushed the psychiatrist towards PDD NOS
English
@ChristianityOn @GambelerQuail I’m actually curious how much “not actually autistic” discourse we’re seeing is from the PPD-NOS cohort
English
There was no “expansion” of autism, they just re-labeled Asperger’s syndrome to level 1 autism. If you don’t know that then you literally know fucking nothing please stop talking.

@echosflashbacks @north0fnorth I think the sugar is normal, it’s just in transgender remembrance packaging because penzeys does a lot of limited edition products to fundraise for progressive causes
English
@north0fnorth love the supportive parents but soooo confused about what transgender sugar means… is it just sugar that’s dyed the colors of the flag?
English
“you’re trans so your parents must hate you” actually my parents are so chill about it they just gifted me a packet of transgender sugar they found while out and about because not everyone has their brain rotted by irrational hatred for minorities

Just double checked passport is good until 2034 blessings upon my kingdom

SCOOP — The State Department is unveiling a limited-edition passport redesign for America250 featuring images of Donald Trump, the Declaration of Independence and the founding fathers. Take a look:

@madisontayt_ Sprite is ONE brand of lemonade. We are not “dumb bitches” because we know more than one brand. You would not be expected to call all these brands “Sprite.”

@shmuckula @dancemydarling @theashleyray in Akilah’s story, she inserted herself where she wasn’t qualified, was abrasive, & threatened to sue the company producing the show, tanking the deal. I haven’t seen anything illegal, just things that would negatively effect his career in an industry where talent is abundant
English
@dancemydarling @theashleyray I listened to it but don’t fully get it. People won’t hire Key because his wife is annoying?
Or he empowers her to be his manager or give notes where she’s not qualified?
Not sure what the actual accusation against her is, other than she gave stupid notes and is annoying.
English
well someone just explained this specific actor's situation yesterday
Eli@rats7
i will never know if celebrities do ads like this because they are completely broke or if they just really really love money

@PGJC7 @RobertD1017 @blounz @SkinnyTuna And sprite isn’t water either, why are you calling them a “donut” for this?

@Shlurpicle @rootbeerbog @Ahhhhh576697 @Vlasti91 @amazonmilkfrog A loaf pan is just a standard piece of bakeware, I’ve made plenty of loaves of homemade bread in this shape because it slices nicely. It’s not always about corporations cheating out, sometimes it’s just an effective shape.
English
@rootbeerbog @Ahhhhh576697 @Vlasti91 @amazonmilkfrog Yes because it's convenient which is also why it's manufactured in that shape as cheaply as possible which is also why "sandwich loaf" is good for large families, picnics, feeding the birds and nothing else
English
what is with the european hate against the sandwich loaf. like. it's not all plastic wonderbread. it's literally just regular bread in a sandwich loaf shape.
Großkhan Hank Hirntod Jr. I 🔥🏴🇲🇳🍉@darkdroogie
this isnt bread, this is a crime against grain, your soulless yankee…
English
@Zayd_al_Jazairi @amazonmilkfrog @RandomNumber758 What about the picture allows you to determine when this bread will go bad?
English
@amazonmilkfrog @RandomNumber758 Bread should go stale after 2-3 days and be rock hard

@KristyT @abike1999 I do remember my time in Pre K and kindergarten, and skills she names like reading foundations and writing my own name were heavily emphasized in Pre K as part of “kindergarten readiness”. This would have been in about 2005
English
@abike1999 There is an argument that the expectations have increased. I can't remember my time in Kinder. I distinctly remembering my mom making sure I could read before kinder.
English
A lot of the people in these comments don't seem to understand that their children will be competing *globally* for resources.
Orietta Rose 🇺🇲@0riettaRose
Teacher says students are entering kindergarten already behind & learning should start at home. Here's what's happening: A lot of parents think their only responsibility is sending their child to school & the school system itself facilitates that mindset.

@grnpointer I grew up in Des Moines and had rural relatives who thought that was scary
English
Being afraid of the closest mid-sized city is an exurban tradition. It doesn't even have to be particularly left wing. I guarantee there's Indiana guys terrified of Terre Haute
Fender Belly@fender_belly
A lot of people are clowning on this, but I live very close to Asheville and have several family members who are genuinely scared of going there. It’s absurd, but it’s also a very real fear for many evangelicals. Like this is a sentiment I’ve heard for over two decades now.

@AlisonNolan9 @BertieDog4 @midaeros That’s really interesting, it sounds like “lemonade” is being used as a category term rather than specifically referring to lemon flavored drinks
English
@elle_hen @BertieDog4 @midaeros It's all just sugar water - I don't think to the red/brown one tastes any different to the clear stuff (I never liked any of them though).
English
The funniest thing about this is the brits keep talking about americans and other europeans are chiming in being like "no, i also don't understand why your lemonade is carbonated."
English
@Pom_Bazooka @theoceanblooms Fanta and Sprite are absolutely considered children’s drinks. Colas are a little more variable due to attitudes about caffeine.
I’m sure a 7 and 7 exists, but it’s not terribly common, even in the soda+liquor category.
English
@elle_hen @theoceanblooms You guys have a drink called 7 and 7 which is whiskey and 7up (same as Sprite).
Sprite is no more a children's drink than Coke or Pepsi or Dr Pepper or Fanta are, surely.
English
sprite isn’t lemonade, it’s lemon and lime
brecht apologist@madisontayt_
you dumb bitches are talking about SPRITE and call it lemonade
English
@Saskia_1975 @NewAdvntures @wisteriasnroses I don’t find it to be very much work with a hand juicer and if the mixes are anything like what we have, it really is a completely different flavor
English
@elle_hen @NewAdvntures @wisteriasnroses It just seems like a lot of work when easier options exist. There’s powdered lemon drinks, lemon squash cordials, or you can just buy some fizzy lemonade instead of squeezing heaps of lemons.
English
calling it “American lemonade”???? The rest of the world calls it lemonade too you people are the only weirdos calling sprite lemonade
English
@Pom_Bazooka @NewAdvntures @wisteriasnroses I think most soft drinks and drink mixes are too sweet, so the diy is worth it
English
@elle_hen @NewAdvntures @wisteriasnroses Nope, not here. Why would you? It’s a lot of work compared to cordial or just a ready made soft drink - and they taste better.
