  I am a very progressive parent. I was harassed by my parents for spending too much time on the computer and I make 6 figures working in tech now and spend 8 hours a day minimum on the computer. When I say I’m progressive I’m not exaggerating. Robotics are the future of humanity. Understanding tech is the future 6 figure job my kid will have. First and foremost I pay for YT premium to avoid the constant barrage of unreviewed ads. Secondly I take a night every week to go through her watch history and remove some videos that are questionable for the algorithm. I also block channels in the suggested area and block watched makers if they are slop or … bad…

  I also tell her she is allowed to watch shorts but ONLY if she is able to watch longer form content above all. I do not believe in tik tok and that started way before trumps cronies owned it. I believe tik tok type consumption is one of those things that will come in a fad and ease out of fad.

  I also watch sometimes with her to identify Ai slop and I show her videos if I ever fall for Ai. I got really excited about a fox video the other day that turned out to be ai and I showed her and she recognized the Ai tells before I did.

  This allows a kid to explore technology without pressure or fear but avoids the Ai stuff. I also have her lookup facts if I know them to be wrong. We watch a lot of dar man because its child friendly but boy fact checking those videos are a riot.

  She is very smart so I rarely have to do anything now but she started yt back when those creepy vilent Elsa videos were popular. So I have been using this method for 6 years. She is a tech wiz, she is smart, made high honor roll, her focus is still intact and she does well at school.

  This was also important to me. I also noticed some channels which were satire of middle schoolers would influence her behavior, so we talk about it. Then if the behavior continues ues I block the channel. Later she can watch again if she feels she is strong minded enough. Some weird pov YouTube rs were cut off for a year but have been allowed back as she is not pliable in those ways anymore.

  Anyways thats the most serious and in depth answer. I hate to pay for YouTube but its the best way to keep her on a single platform with the most visibility and I can adjust the algorithm through her history

  Mine isn’t on here. Two pairs of pants, a hoodie, and possibly a hat. I like to be burning hot at night and I am scared of heated blankets. (Cause they sometimes catch on fire)

  There are shocker different types of humans. I’m not disputing they are mainly pack animals only that it’s not “the only” thing they can be. Welcome to the diverse beautiful world we live in

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It is only half greentext, though amusing⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Autistic people aren’t pack animals.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It is only half greentext, though amusing⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Some people aren’t pack animals - isn’t it wild how diverse the human species is! Lol it’s on you if you’re guilty of thinking these people are a problem.

  I have no sexual attraction to the many gamers I watch stream. I love John Wolfe and his gaming is just so entertaining. I will listen in the background and watch off and on. I get to experience games I have no time or energy to play still engage in the storylines and also have some background noise. It’s a win win win. It’s not always about bewbs.

  Lol well I’ve tried a bit of everything thinking. Perhaps it was just the (lover/style/gender) that was making it “good but not stellar” like I can name a lot of other things I’d rather do. Id not be opposed to it if I had a partner who wanted to do this and I had time…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon hires a goth chick⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I was 27 when i did the deed for the first time. It was very overrated. I’m almost 40 now. Ive been married, tried a few partners, it just didn’t matter. But before 27 I thought I must be missing out and got sad over it. Nah man it’s really nbd.

  I liked my Samsung fold phone, having the bigger screen was awesome. In the end I went back to sultra series from Samsung because the foldable was too heavy and caused my hands to cramp.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My mom tells me I should cut dad off for cheating on her, am I a bad person for not wanting to do so?⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Between an immoral piece of sh and a person who was dedicated and believed they weren’t yes there are sides.

  Father isn’t just committing an act of betrayal, which he does to the person he loves, so op will definitely also be fair game for betrayal, father is also abusing his seat of power over his very young employee which is called coertion or quid pro quo and is UNACCEPTABLE. The fact OP could look into the eyes of a man who would betray him without a second thought is just cope.

  Eventually it will sink in how horrific this was and op I am sure being moral themselves hopefully will take moms side.

  Normal to go through a period of shock or denial before it sinks in.

  I have a few but my absolute favorite was when he said " Imagine there’s a woman, maybe she is homeless or on drugs, and she shouts at you as you walk by across the street. She says you look like a cockroach. What would you do? " “Probably laugh” “Exactly, think of your parent as that woman. They have no effect on your life but noise” I’m paraphrasing but I liked the idea of my negative thoughts ingrained by generations of trauma being like a random shouting on the street.
