  I feel like watching him come of age while rebelling against his lot/role, going on that adventure to find himself is really important, whether he’s technically a prince at the time or not.

  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are there any prince movies for kids?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I almost suggested this one too - I’d put it on when my kids were babies, since they seemed to like it well enough, and I loved the movie and soundtrack

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are there any prince movies for kids?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Absolutely! On both counts! But I feel like it does show that just because someone is a prince and perceived as “important” doesn’t mean he’s gonna do the right thing. Strive to be a good person, not just a royal.

  That’s my opinion on the two of those characters, at least. 😋

  What about The Lion King? (I’d have to recommend the 1994 animated movie, but I haven’t seen the newer one)

  Similar style, but Spock doesn’t wear his like a full-sized backpack. More of a commuter purse?

  Alright, so my husband points out that I can probably reach every part of my body - including “that spot between my shoulder blades that [he] can’t reach” with either hand, or putting my fingers flat on the floor, with my hands at a 90° angle, backwards… I’m very hyper-mobile and my body moves in ways that are not normal.

  It’s my right side upper lip for me.

  I’m glad nobody is in the room with me. I’ve gotta look ridiculous.

  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨is the ability to raise one eyebrow a thing to born with?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Full disclosure: I learned to lift my left eyebrow well because I wanted to be like Spock. The eyebrow lift seemed… logical.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨is the ability to raise one eyebrow a thing to born with?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh yeah, I forgot about my eyes. I can do that one, too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨is the ability to raise one eyebrow a thing to born with?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I can only lift my left eyebrow well; when I lift my right, it’s more like a whole-face ordeal. But I did practice both in front of a mirror, and that’s the only reason I can lift either. There was an innate ability on the left, and much practice on the right. So, yes?

  Wiggling my ears took practice, too, but the taco-tongue thing came naturally to me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I May Have Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, What Specialty Doctor Should I Consult With?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I would also suggest your primary care physician first. They can direct you to the next step and give you any referral you might need to get there. Orthopedics is probably the next step, but possibly physical/occupational therapy, or a neurologist (to determine the extent of nerve damage, probably?)

  I went through the process (in the US) for a repetitive stress injury that acted a lot like carpal tunnel issues. You might be able to just talk to your PCP (via messaging, email, tele-health appointment, etc) and get a referral to orthopedics; depending on your healthcare system / insurance situation, maybe you don’t need a referral.

  IANAD/YMMV

  Damn. Conversion is hard

  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How did Peter Piper pick pickled peppers?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Imperial or metric football? I’m not great with converting units of measure… So maybe 2?

  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How did Peter Piper pick pickled peppers?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  A peck is (was) a unit of measure, oddly. Same with a bushel. I know because my Grandma used to say “a bushel and a peck, and a squeeze around the neck!” to me when I was young. I had to ask her too.
