i will tell you that the #1 thing 10 year old kids think is hilarious is using the browser inspector to replace markiplier youtube titles with "markiplier sniffs a butt" and I think i got two kids into programming with that trick.

as my friends start having kids ive been increasingly appreciating how certain things in my life would straight up not be happening with kids around quiet glass of scotch with partner at 6pm? nope decide to take day off, sleep till 11? lol sunset run in the forest? no you're supposed to pick up jimmy from soccer!!!

i mean if you're having kids with the expectation that its easy and will make your life cushier then yeah no that is a flawed expectation

yeah, i think it is perfectly valid to appreciate the freedoms of not having kids, while appreciating that some people having kids is both necessary and hard weighty work. we can all lol at the kind of people who have no kids and have still managed to make their life equally hectic and constrained by unnecessarily investing heavily in a supposed career.

KOTEX GOD OF BLOOD posted:as my friends start having kids ive been increasingly appreciating how certain things in my life would straight up not be happening with kids around There's some truth to that for sure, also there are benefits though. A heart can hold as much love as you allow. My kid means everything to me, and I'm OK with putting aside my own desires for him to grow up happy. There are no words that describe how I felt when he took his first steps, when he fed himself for the first time, when he said his first word. If he comes running over in a great mood, it brightens my day every time. You can also re-live a whole swath of things. Sledding down a hill, playing on a playground, mud puddles, fruit snacks, naptime. I get to see babyman explore them, and I can be a part of it. Also my parents and sister are my friends for life. More than friends - blood is thicker than water. I want that, and I want more of it. When I'm old and gray, I want to have grandkids in my life. Family can help ensure that you won't die old and alone. Parenting is a shitload of work, and I'm still only at the beginning of the journey. But so far it's been worth it for me 100% Poopernickel fucked around with this message at 23:29 on Feb 16, 2021 |

mostly what you can't really do as a parent anymore is play video games that require large blocks of undivided attention or have a multiplayer component or like go out with your partner to the movies or barhopping or to parties or whatever but really you'll be too tired to do any of that stuff anyway lol

Well the good news for me is I can't do any of that stuff right now anyway because of covid, but I 100% can drink once everyone else is in bed and I will eventually finish Cyberpunk (I've actually been at the end for like a month but just pissing around "solving" crimes)

Stringent posted:my little one is about to turn 6 and i keep telling myself, just one more year, just one more year. at least until teenage years i reckon it just keeps getting better. conversations are more interesting, watching them get their own personalities and tastes. also more independence and can do more things for themselves. it’s good the one universal recommendation is get your kids doing chores early. they won’t begrudge it so much if it’s just normal and sets them up for adult life. me? i’m loving useless
