I don’t do Twitter. Or insta. My kids are too young and im keeping them to scratch, Minecraft and roblox and that’s it. I do worry about my daughter though she’s a social butterfly. If she behaves in HS like she does now I worry she’d be one of those FR getting invited to the Senior parties and then I’m going to have to commit a whole lot of murders of adolescent boys. I don’t want to do that so she really needs to avoid social media.

Always entertaining listening to guys trying to manage their daughter's behavior. The guy who had the very first daughter muttered to himself, after a few tries, "not a chance," and that has been the axiom ever since. But good luck.

She’s 8 so ive got time I just don’t know how she became a social butterfly so fast. I didn’t teach her that. Yes I’m generally fairly sociable and we host my friends when I’m around a bit but she’s like a sorority girl already. It’s worrisome-suppose it’s good she has a lot of friends, one slept over last night.

Keep her busy, set a curfew, be judicious with “sleep aways”. Ran into neighbors the other day and asked about their daughter. Laughed about keeping her busy in high school to limit her ability to go to the frequent town parties….. USNA grad that did well and finished high in her class. The parents were helpful when mine were coming up. Both were in the school system so they had good vision…..$.02…..

Good advice I think. My challenge is a extremely low energy and inactive wife so that means a lot more work for me on top of digging myself out of a professional hole in 2023 but I'll figure it out I always have. Worry about her a lot more than my son though and not just the dad daughter dynamic - the impetuousness, seeming habitual need for screens, lack on natural inquisitive nature, etc. Maybe that's my fault for not developing more but I assume it's her personality.

Bit of advice is to have VERY open and honest lines of communication with daughters. They need and respect it.

The other "smart" thing I did was surround my daughter with 4 brothers (all over 6' tall and ranging from 195 to 235 lbs).

Two benefits:
1) the brothers watched out for her, so did her brother's friends;
2) boys were never a mystery. I watched her friends go boy crazy in/around middle school and she never did. I think there was a lot of - "I've changed the diapers, I've seen their bathrooms, they just are not that interesting....."

She's got one older brother who's really nice and somewhat sensitive but also into Stone Cold Steve Austin, Motorhead (and the Triple H entrance) and recently said while he thinks he's going to have to play more attack this season but really going to focus on D. When I asked what the goal was he said "hurt but never injure the ballcarrier, so they are fine after the game but don't want to play in that game anymore". I think he will keep an eye on her - I hope.

I corrected him that the goal is to keep a body in front of the offensive player, protect your goalie at all costs, have your stick on them and take the ball away with respect to his answer to me about his job at Defense. He said "oh yeah, that too".

Here's a perspective on this business:

https://aaronrupar.substack.com/p/kathy ... mail=false

Certainly a perspective.

But perhaps Hochshul has a grander, non-local viewpoint or plans. And perhaps she understands that the center voters (read: the majority of voters on either side) are mostly put-off by the dug-in behavior of the extreme right and left. And let's not forget, bipartisanship has kept Biden politically alive on the national scene for what, 40+ years?

https://www.nytimes.com/2023/01/04/us/p ... nship.html

It's somewhat dishonest by the author, labeling all republicans as extremists and fascists AND saying the local issues at risk are important to the vast majority of that national center block of voters I mentioned above. Saying something is 90% accepted in a state like New York (or city like Baltimore) isn't necessarily an accurate reflection of the national view. Seems like an extremist is trying to normalize those local extreme views into a "national perspective."

Progressives have now destroyed a 63 year tradition in advertising. M&M Mars, in order to pander to the perpetually offended, is doing away with the animated candy characters in favor of a human spokeswoman. She will appeal to the woke, but not to the kids who might express a preference based on their favorite character or the humor. Prior to the cancellation they were modifying the characters, especially eliminating anything that might be slightly sexist about the "female" characters, like stiletto heels. M&M Mars should be careful. They will be coming for the chocolate soon enough.

"The spokescandies are a team of cartoon M&Ms mascots that have represented the brand in commercials and other marketing materials since 1960. Early last year, the candy brand updated the cartoons and its marketing, rebranding each mascot with a new backstory, clothing and personality to be more inclusive.

The green M&M, for example, had previously drawn criticism for being marketed as too sexy, so the company switched out her knee-high heeled boots for sneakers and put more emphasis on her feminist values. “Orange” became a mascot riddled with anxiety, and the company added a new purple M&M, which was designed to represent inclusivity."

You guessed wrongly, for whatever that's worth. Typical lefty assuming one's intelligence is based on some 4 credit college courses. "Orange" became a mascot riddled with anxiety". You mean to say consumers were clamoring for a candy associated with neuroses? Do you think for a minute their wokeness won't have an equal or greater negative impact on sales? Bed, Bath and Beyond's slide was not helped by their discontinuing their relationship with My Pillow. It seemed to happen at almost the same time, although I have to say their service sucked as well. Not a good "marketing" move to shoo away customers.

Hmm-seeing patterns in cadence and shifting tone not to mention hysterical

I’m in Greenville regularly over by Cleveland Park. Know the town quite well. Wife’s family founded Furman amongst others things this guy from a lower economic class still struggles with. Grandmother was on the board of Christ church where I was last at for wife’s uncles funeral procession, across from the Palmetto Bank mausoleum HQ now utilized by UCBI and grandfather was president of Daniels Construction then Fluor Daniels the predecessor to Fluor Corp before they moved HQ fully to San Diego.

Also spend a good bit of time up at Ceasars Head Mtn.

I know more about Greenville than I care to and trust me, the city and folks in Atlanta are unambiguously better. Even with me living in this town.

My only fixation is with thoughtless cats who refuse to actually respond normally, drive through every conversation by repeating and regurgitating Fox News/NY Post fed commentary and bug out about nothing important.
