K-On!
I was raised bilingual, and speaking from my own experiences I’d say that it’s a good idea to consider the following questions if you want to maximize the child’s ability in either language:
I’m not sure if it’s a good idea to share my own story because it gets pretty melodramatic at points, but yeah, language skills need to be built and maintained over the course of one’s entire life, so you need to be able to adapt to changing circumstances. But as a whole I think that what you’re planning for your own kid sounds like it will work well, or at least decently well — the only way to know for sure is to get a time machine and go forwards 20 years, and until then I think it’s best to have faith in your competence as a parent. There’s no-one who knows a family better than itself.
And beyond that, one should also ask oneself… Well, what types of language skills does one want to see in one’s child, and what happens if the child ultimately does not reach the goals one has set? I’d say that I have sort of a nuanced or over-complicated relationship to so-called “bad grammar” because of my position.
I watch basically any channel with 100,000+ subscribers through Piped so that my views or retention or engagement don’t get counted by YouTube.
“Have these gentlemen ever SEEN a” yadda yadda
I only just realized that “ETA” in Internet comments stands for “edited to add”
Please don’t think that I’m necessarily agreeing with your stances and attitudes and so forth, but do think that I find ShimmeringKoi to be kind of embarrassing right now.
I’m just gonna be honest, you’re being cringe right now. “No it’s not my fault I mistook this person’s nationality, it’s their fault for coming across to me as the wrong nationality” — no, just own up to your mistake, for God’s sake, it’s not hard. Preferably you wouldn’t have made the mistake in the first place — you might’ve even been able to avoid it if you’d just read more carefully, given it even a second longer of thought, and weren’t so quick to make assumptions.
*exasperated sigh*
Wasn’t it obvious from the literal start that that person was Irish‽
och jag är faktiskt 15.
For en tilfeldighet! Jeg kan respektere ærligheten, i det minste. Jeg virkelig burde slutte å tenke at alle på Internett er like gamle som meg.
Jeg virkelig ville anbefalt å lære mer om Marx og Engels sine idéer, for eksempel Engels skrev “Om autoritet” (svensk oversettelse her — veldig kort!)
Du høres ut som meg når jeg var 15. Har du faktisk lest Marx og disse “andre teoretikerne”?
I could say that bourgeois ownership of media and academia and the state means that those institutions will represent the biases and interests of the bourgeoisie, and so people in first-world capitalist countries end up living in a sort of self-propagating anti-communist media bubble; but the thing about propaganda is that people are rarely ever truly “tricked” by it, propaganda is always most effective when it reinforces something that someone already believes on some level.
This is why the second part to building anti-communist sentiment has to do with super-exploitation, imperialism, and the labor aristocracy. This is to say, workers in first-world capitalist countries are materially invested in capitalism, through various perks and “treats” that workers of “poorer” countries are deprived of. By being materially invested in capitalism, workers of the first world are primed to take on a sort of “bourgeois mindset”, as it were.
There’s more that can be said, too, I’d strongly recommend listening to this speech by the leader of Revolutionary Grenada, Maurice Bishop, but I think that’s a good start…
As your home instance is Lemmygrad, I shall tell you how to add your pronouns on that instance.
Go to your account settings, and under “display name” type the name you wish to be known as, followed by your pronouns in brackets or parentheses. There is a character limit for display names, however, so if you use many different pronoun sets, you may need to choose just one or two for your display name, and include the rest in your bio.
On my own main instance, Hexbear, there is a separate field for pronouns in the settings, a drop-down menu above the display name. This feature seems to be unique to Hexbear, however.
“Now, no one — certainly not me — is discounting the power of markets,” Sullivan noted at the time. “But in the name of oversimplified market efficiency, a large non-market economy had been integrated into the international economic order in a way that posed considerable challenges.”
“Despite the best that has been done by everyone […] the war situation has developed not necessarily to Japan’s advantage,”
It is now only a few days until my laptop gets a new charger, which means that it is now only a few days until I install Linux Mint for realsies for the first time and go absolutely got dang crazy customizing it into the most absolutely horrendous and ridiculous mix of 2000s nostalgia and weeb shit and communism and eclectic personal creativity and whatever else that I can think of. It’s going to be glorious.
Container housing? What is this, Nunavut? Haw haw haw haw!
There are two YouTube channels I like about American Indian / Native American history. One is called Indigenous History Now (Invidious mirror) and the other is called Ancient Americas (Invidious mirror). Both of these focus on more long-form content.
I feel like there’s no age where dressing up and knocking on doors becomes inappropriate. It’s fun, it can increase social cohesion in a community, there’s no reason for adults not to be a little silly, yadda yadda. Already now it’s perfectly acceptable for an adult attending trick-or-treating children to dress up as well, but I think adults alone or in adult groups should be allowed to dress up as well.
But then there’s the “asking for candy” part… Now I don’t think there’s any age where people should stop eating candy, either — but when you have the ability to easily buy (or even make) your own candy, then maybe it’d be a better idea to start giving out your candy to the houses you knock on, if you still want to go out in costume.
I dunno, just a thought. I wouldn’t tell your sister to stop, though. We’re all a little weird at the end of the day.
