    In italy you pay for lunch too in advance unless you're extra poor. I remember hearing a case of a child who wasn't given lunch because the family was behind on payments and the teachers scraped food to not let him go hungry and the parents argued it's incredibly disgusting to not feed a child because he's behind on paying for lunches. It wasn't even that the parents didn't care. They were struggling with money.

    • @DSoSJohnH

      Sht like that should be illegal everywhere. I think if a child goes without food in school, whether they have money or not, should be reported as child abuse and child neglect against the school and the school should be fined 10,000x the cost of what it would have been for that $2.00 lunch... per child that goes without food.
      I say this from someone who went hungry for a day because I wasn't informed by the lunch staff that I had ran out of money in my account the prior day. A third grader, an 8 year old. I went home not only with an empty stomach but a severe migraine because I had no food. My family was not happy about that, nor was I for having a migraine.

      Out of anything, tax payers shouldn't be against a single meal per kid being part of education budget. Not only the basic humanity of it, but it benefits everybody when people get good educations and having high energy and nutrition helps kids stay alert, concentrate, and better brain function in general.

      That no longer happens in Massachusetts. Lunch is provided regardless of lunch debt and there are no longer any consequences if you cannot pay your lunch debt. If you can pay, pay, so they can fund those who can't. That was the federal policy in 2021 during Covid, but it was popular in Massachusetts, so the state raised taxes on the wealthy to pay for it. And my kids go to a public school that's as good as the great private school I went to as a kid despite living in a middle class town.

      @pennyforyourthots 3 дня назад

      It depends. There are different communities of Amish that have varying levels of acceptance.
      The strictest groups don't allow any form of modern technology and tend to be the most isolationist, but many groups will allow somewhat modern technology so long as it's seen as beneficial for the community. So you can't have an individual cell phone, but some might have a communal pay phone (although I find that this is only becoming more common relatively recently). This tends to mean that relatively modern farm equipment is allowed, stand mixers, modern ovens, etc.

    In the 90s, my recently divorced father and I, a preteen, were bacheloring it up. One holiday, my dad went to work and left me with $5 to get some McD's down the street for lunch. I found out, at lunch time, that the McD's was closed for the holiday. The only other restaurant open around our apartment complex was a Rafferty's, I think. Anyway, a mid-level, sit-down style restaurant. I went in and asked the hostess what I could get for $5. Those absolute legend young ladies were so sweet, got me a burger and fries to go, and sent me on my way, food in hand and $5 in my pocket. That was over 30 years ago and I still get choked up thinking of their kindness, feeding a hungry kid a $15 lunch who had but $5 to his name.

      That sounds exactly like an old TV commercial for Gain laundry detergent. Only the wife never actually consumed the detergent, instead the husband drove to the store to get the bottle of detergent to bring home for his wife just so she could smell it. "My wife had a pregnancy craving for the scent of Gain laundry detergent," was a line in that commercial.
      Also, having cravings for inedible items is known as Pica and gets it's name from a bird species, the Eurasian magpie (the formal Latin name for that species is Pica pica). This bird has a reputation for eating unusual objects.
      And this disorder is seen in people that have iron deficiency, certain mental disorders and people that are pregnant.

  • @HitchcockJohn
    @HitchcockJohn 15 дней назад +144

    I feel like we need to get rid of the mentality that you can’t like something because “it’s for babies.” I had so much of feeling that as a kid to the point where it sometimes made me feel shame for liking things or having liked things in the past. And getting shamed for watching or even enjoying something because “it’s for babies”- often based on an arbitrary standard by people who don’t know what they’re talking about. I remember getting picked on in Grade 4 by classmates who were convinced I was too old to enjoy the Muppets.
    My thought now if someone were to say “it’s for babies” is to say something like “what’s your point?” So what if you’re not the intended demographic for a show or a book or whatever? If it’s well-made that shouldn’t matter. If anything, a show/book managing to unexpectedly find an audience outside it’s intended demographic just means its really good.
    And hey, a well-made kids show can be great for de-stressing. Think about it, they’re usually short, have stories that are easy to follow, and even if there’s a large cast overall, the core group of characters is usually pretty small and easy to keep track of. It’s a nice change in an era where nearly every non-kids show is trying to be the next Game of Thrones.

    I was a local in the area.
    The Australian Prime Minister who famously went missing was *_Harold Holt_* . He disappeared on *_December 17, 1967_* , while swimming at Cheviot Beach near Portsea, Victoria. Holt was a strong swimmer, but rough conditions and powerful ocean currents were present that day.
    Despite an extensive search involving police, navy divers, and helicopters, his body was never found. His disappearance sparked numerous conspiracy theories, including speculation about a possible defection to China or abduction by a submarine, but the most widely accepted explanation is that he drowned.
    Holt’s disappearance remains one of Australia's most intriguing political mysteries.

And many people don't know this so if you tell them, "hey I know I'm going to be charged for the bottle of this so can you please go ahead and give it to me to take home."

So have a lovely day, keep making great videos, and just consider that a world of others' needs exists beyond your own.

It's more expensive but in over ten years of purchases from the grocery store across the street from me I've yet to get a bad piece of fruit. Melon, pineapple, strawberries, watermelon, blueberries, mango, raspberries, and more I'm probably forgetting. Whoever does it seems to have high quality control standards.

    Robin, being on the top floor of a building as it collapses tends to be a lot less bad for your health than being in the floors below it.
    Also, you fall asleep more easily at certain times of the day because that's how your circadian rhythm is wired. Supposedly things like fasting can help reset your sleep schedule, but those kinds of things don't tend to work for 100% of people, so it's a dice roll.

At list among the aristocrats, young unmarried woman, who don't know how to play any instruments or at list sing, would not be considered as good of a option for marriage.
      And a lot of man learned to play instruments as well.

    1:14 basically, you'd buy the sheet music and play it on the piano, if you had one. Rich folks usually had a piano, and sometimes farmers pooled their money to acquire a piano for the community. Sometimes pubs or ale houses had them. You could pay a fee like a subscription service so that a printing company would send you sheet music from either the most recent big artists, or you could mail in requests for specific songs if you knew them.
    Don't know WHY i know that, but it's how ordering music and listening to it at home used to work. Pretty convoluted. Imagine not knowing anyone who could play, or getting the wrong music? Or being a servant to a fancy lady who played the piano and was nice enough to let you listen, but you have different taste in music? You prefer Beethoven but she likes Schubert but you find his arrangement too fanciful and inane. Oh, old timey problems.

      I didn’t buy the first two arcs myself because I didn’t know if I was going to actually fully enjoyed or not, but turns out I have so I have all the arcs after that now in Power of Three, Omen of the Stars, Dawn of the Clans, A Vision of Shadows, The Broken Code, A Starless Clan, and now book 1 of the newest arc (Changing Skies), The Elders’ Quest

    In Denmark, there's actually a law saying that you can only do a full trip around a roundabout before you have to take the exit you actually had to take. It's not particularly enforced, but it's there just in case someone wants to try doing hundreds or thousands of trips in a roundabout. There's nothing legally stopping you from just ping-ponging between two adjacent roundabouts for days on end, such as near a highway, if that's what you want, though.

    You reminded me of our old tradition when we were a family (parents divorced nothing scary happened). But on Sundays we used to go to the mall or ikea or the airport as a family outing. Then before 2011 when the place got flooded and just shut down permanently, on our way back my parents would go rent a movie and we had movie afternoon. Dad would hand the movie back later before dinner. This place was totally automated too. It wasn't a blockbuster because we're Italians but it was such a fun time. Sometimes they'd pick movies for all of us and sometimes movies that were more mature. Like action films type mature. I know the biggest library in town has movie rentals but god I wish this could come back as a thing. We might go with mom and see how it works as I believe it's not managed by the library system in my city but self managed.
