The fuck you would. Not much is stopping you from doing that now, just in a longer timeframe.
You’d be sat here with me and everyone else scrolling your phone for hours, before thinking “Oh yeah I was gonna do that thing…can’t be arsed now”.
This is a wildly vague question, but a snippet of advice I was given years ago by a mate with a kid a few years older than my (then) toddlers was “You don’t have to provide them with constant entertainment, you just need to do one or two activities for a short amount of time and that’s what they remember”.
It’s great advice. Kids at early ages can be a fucking nightmare, but the truth is, you take them swimming for an hour, or do some painting for a while, or go to the park for a bit, and that’s what gets imbued on their consciousness. You get the rewards when they fill in that little book at school about what they did at the weekend, and it’s a ten minute window of shit you did that was fun for them, and not the rest of the stressful admin that comes with dealing with young children.
My nearly adult kids often say to me now “you were always doing fun things with us”. Mate, I played table tennis in a shed with you for 20 minutes, or sat down with you for a bit and made a robot out of a fucking cardboard box and a bog roll.
One or two activities a day where your attention is fully on them is enough to create happy memories for them. You don’t need to helicopter about.
Now I’m no expert, but I’ve a suspicion this could be a political metaphor.
The title of the post.

Belonging to fly, or fly is?
It does have those exact single paned sash windows mind you, which rattle with every passing car.
When the kids complained years ago about how cold it was in this house, I put blankets in the living room for us all to wrap up in. We’ve since upgraded to duvets. I’m currently on the sofa under a double duvet. It’s 9pm and 22 degrees outdoors.
You’re welcome to crash in my 150 year old 2-foot thick stone wall house with fuck all insulation that’s unbearably freezing year round.
It’s one way or the other in this country. Sweaty new-builds with no air con, or ancient glorified caves that wouldn’t heat up if they were on fire.
I reckon it was a grammatical joke based on the incorrect apostrophe.
United have Arsenal, City and Chelsea within the first 5 games. Relegation battle from day one, I reckon.
I mean, Wales has a fucking dragon on it.
Yeah, if you’re Swiss, that flag is a big plus.
Yeah, there’s two seasons of about 10 episodes each, so each one is bingeable in a weekend. There’s a third season planned although in my opinion it wouldn’t have been a travesty if they didn’t, as the ending to S2 was satisfying enough for me.
It’s one of the best shows I’ve ever seen. Beautifully shot, wonderfully acted, equal parts funny, poignant and weird, it deserves to be seen by as many people as possible.
Apple TV+ offers various free trials, and worth doing for Severance alone. Absolutely superb show.
In fairness, the 10th gen Civics (in Europe at least) looked absolutely badass compared to pretty much any other family hatchback when they released. They were a lot pointier and aggressive looking than their boring counterparts.
If this works, can he also ask Man United to stop being shit please?
I’d love one of these if they do make it, not that I’d be able to afford it. I’ve had two ICE Tourans and they are the perfect family vehicle. Not enormous since they’re based on a Golf chassis, but with 7 seats and a huge amount of boot space, configuable rear seats, great MPG and bulletproof diesel engines. Hope the electric versions are as good.
I hope so. I’m using Interstellar on iOS full time now after switching to a Piefed account. It’s good, but not nearly as polished as Voyager. I’m sure it will be though, but a couple of options would be great.
That comment is badly phrased, but I can appreciate at least some of the sentiment. I’ve always felt pride if other people have found my partner attractive. It appeals to my self-esteem and vanity knowing that this person who is desired by others, chose me.
They were 7 and 10 when we separated, so late teens now.
Fair enough. Back to scrolling then, like the rest of us.
