@StasisGame It seems that almost every paragraph repeats itself. I have suspicion it's AI written.

@TheCourierGuy_ It seems your change to use any locker for Pudo has not propagated to all lockers. I made a booking this morning and received a pin. When I used the pin at my closest locker it said "Cannot find Pin".

@JoeBaguley What if the cat goes in rear-end first and then picks up the mouse outside before pulling himself in? Hope the AI can detect that 😀

It’s exciting to watch my vet student daughter use LLMs and AI (like Perplexity) as part of her studies, but the most anticipated use of AI in our house is the catflap we’ve ordered that detects things in our cat’s mouth and locks the catflap…

@ianotooletweets Strangely, when I first saw the artwork it felt "OK. 😄" As I read the books and studied the artwork I started loving it and can see why you took this approach.

"My children didn't choose to be born. I chose to have children. They owe me nothing. I owe them everything."
- Elon Musk (with one of the greatest quotes about fatherhood you'll ever read)
When you become a dad, your life is no longer yours. Your life is now shared. And part of you will always belong to them
This makes a lot of men uncomfortable. They think it means they have to be 100% selfless and sacrificing for the rest of their lives
But they're thinking about it wrong. Owing your children everything doesn't mean you have to sacrifice your health and goals and ideals
It means the exact opposite, actually. It means you now have an undeniable mandate to make yourself as good as you can possibly be
It's more than protecting. It's more than providing. It's more than preparing. It's all of those at once. And the whole is greater than the sum of its parts
To improve on those areas requires selfish dedication. It requires selfish protection of your time. You can't help others with their oxygen masks if you're struggling to breathe yourself
It's that selfish time working on yourself makes you a better dad. Which means it's actually the most selfless thing you can do

Amazing image below
A core parenting belief of mine:
One of the most important things we can do for our kids is help them learn the power of their imaginations
But you have to contend with the constant onslaught of overstimulating screens
Here's 2 ways we beat screens:
First: reading, every day, no exceptions
In addition to the obvious benefits of being a strong reader, stories in books help open up the imagination and broaden our kids' worlds.
They expand their ideas of what's possible. My advice is start the reading habit as early as possible, and let your kids see you reading as often as you can
Second: audio stories
As an alternative to screens, we listen to audio stories (I even create one for 3-8 year olds that I'll link in a follow-up post). We listen to them together with our oldest son. You can SEE him engaging with the audio in a way he never does with screens. You can see his brain working. You can see him filling in the blanks in his mind.
Whereas if he was just watching a screen, there are no blanks to fill in. No imagining, no envisioning. Just consuming.
"Imagination rules the world"
- Napoleon Bonaparte
This quote is more powerful than people realize
It's impossible to build anything if you can't first imagine it
Everything ever created by man first existed in someone's imagination
Imagination is a muscle. And too much screen time just atrophies it.
