[@GBLtheMOTH]

It doesn't sound that bad. I've seen worse pregnancy cravings (my mom knows a woman who had DETERGENT as a pregnancy craving and the baby came out fine). You can eat banana with a lot of foods.

[@Cuddly-Cactus]

@GBLtheMOTH 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.

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.

[@damiancrowley569]

​@@DSoSJohnHI completely agree, and those bag lunches they gave that was two slices of bread with a piece of cheese. Fucking awful. I think they should be fined far more for the neglect as a facility that's supposed to be dedicated to the well being and education of children. The fuck even is this world

[@Redbeardian]

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.

[@Sam_on_YouTube]

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. We've got plenty of problems with our political system, but it's still WAY better living in a blue state.

[@damiancrowley569]

@Sam_on_KZbin I absolutely believe that, if this shit red state didn't keep us so broke we couldn't do anything about it, I'd absolutely move somewhere blue. I just wish I was more into politics and stuff earlier in life, like I'd always known red states were different, but I didn't really understand until I had people who rely on me and who's future I have to consider

[@HitchcockJohn]

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 mentioned this because we recently got some Edwardian Era (1901-1910) books donated that were full of sheet music. You could literally just go and buy books of sheet music of the most popular songs at the time, kinda like buying one of those "Top Hits" CDs back in the early 00's. To answer Robin's question, yes you would have to go hear it performed, but it was easy to buy the sheet music, you really just needed to find and pay someone talented enough to play it properly (not an easy task with Moonlight Sonata).

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.

22:18 isn’t the reason why medical professionals ask about when the last menstrual period is that some of the medications, and diagnostics could lead to birth defects or a miscarriage, so they have to make sure the patient isn’t pregnant before proceeding.

I'm sorry, but whether or not I'm pregnant shouldn't matter when I have multiple broken limbs. Give me fn morphine.

[@rabbitmassani3687]

That's the legitimate intention for it, yeah. Unfortunately, most doctors use that question as an excuse to brush off a woman's symptoms by blaming their issues on their menstrual cycles and NOT do any tests. So, it's a valid medical question. It's just used the wrong way on purpose by a lot of ignorant doctors.

[@jake8748]

They'll often do pregnancy tests if thats a concern. There is a few but not really many commonly prescribed medications. Im pretty sure they ask that because of how often they use a period as a reason to explain away issues. Its why endometriosis has like a 5+ year diagnosis time from first seeing a dr for help.

That and many of its other disability-focused uses that get ignored when people like this just blanket disapprove of things 'cause "I don't need it." I'm glad you don't, I hope you never have to end up in a place where you need it, and if you ever are, I hope more thoughtful minds than yours have prevailed in making such things available, because even if you don't think anyone should have a thing that you don't need, you are still a human and I hope you would be treated with the compassion and empathy you should show others. Anyway, sorry for the rant, I honestly do enjoy your content and narration style, but that's just one point that keeps popping up in the videos you narrate, and since this won't really get seen by anyone, it's mostly just me venting a recurring frustration in vane.

Their people even poor people, were able to hear pieces of music. Generally not a whole sonnet, but pieces to know whether or not they like the song.

From what I hear, it depends on what faction of Amish they are, but the jist of their ideology is that that technology gives a person too much freetime or makes things too easy, which promotes laziness and sin, they don't necessarily refuse to use technology so much as they choose not to use technology which would make things too easy.

22:01 Tbh, there will always be someone who experiences something for the first time, no matter how old it is. If people always had to watch out that they don't spoiler anything, no one would be able to talk about anything ever.

3:10 Dude, my elementary school closed down back in 2022 and I got to visit it one last time on its last day open. The gymnasium *still* had the same "got milk?" poster up after 20 years.

"Who wouldn't think someone is the one if they see them going to town on a rotisserie chicken?" I feel more validated by this than you could possibly comprehend.

20:00 Nuh-no no no, I'm on Scotty's side here. If I'm going to the beach, I want that natural seaside ambience, public space or not. If you want music, either save it for the car drive, or wait until sunset to light a bonfire and pull out an acoustic guitar LIKE A CIVILIZED PERSON 🙄🙄

[@nikitatavernitilitvynova]

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.

19:31 Really guys, an AI generated image. I thought you where better than that. (Mind you, if they chose AI-gen as a way to represent this specific cursed moment in time, then I'm slightly inclined to be lenient)

[@Zulf85]

I don't get why they used an AI image

[@Mar-zw3eu]

There was no reason for that image to be there in the first place

When I cark it, I want the doors chained shut, the rabbi to put in some earplugs, and Tom Lehrer's "We Will All Go Together When We Go" played as a timer counts down.

Im so happy that someone I highly look up to read house of leaves aswell!!! Way too many people I know (everyone pretty much) haven't read it, and I crave to talk with someone about it 🙏😭

Warrior Cats is still some of my favorite books to this day. I own the first series, and will try and get the rest.

[@saxman112]

Nice! I missed the boat on the Warriors/Warrior Cats series originally but have been reading it for 2 years now and in my 30s Even though they’re meant mainly for older children, at the same time, I think adults can quite enjoy them as well!

The roundabout one reminded me of a story I heard on a podcast of someone driving their buddy home late at night, and then just going through the roundabout over and over. Don’t think they said how long they did it, though.

3:37 I read warriors a few years ago, but not really ever in order. I got most of the books I was missing for Christmas and I’m currently reading the main arcs in order. I think I’m on Power of Three book 4(Eclipse) Got excited when I saw warriors mentioned lol

[@saxman112]

Oh nice! I just started reading Warrior Cats just a few years ago myself, and now I’m about halfway through the fifth arc (the prequel one in Dawn of the Clans) and I have been loving it 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 So yeah, sounds like I will definitely not be running out of books to read for a while because I am absolutely hooked on this here series!

[@Aimz360]

I scoffed at the movie at 7am until I remembered one time at uni I was drinking with my mid-week anime club friends. It was last orders in our fave pub and one guy wanted to stay out more so I joined him and so did another lass. We went 30 secs to another place and were there till 1pm or something. We went back to his, played Silent hill, then watched the movie. My friend and I left after the sun rose and it was 7am. We hadn't slept in 24hrs and she had a lecture in 2 hrs.

[@ribbonduckling1314]

3:37 house in the cerulean sea is a adult book that is written like a children's book with all the wimsy to go with it. Very good. Would highly recommend

[@DeviantCinnamonfur]

You don't have to "go back" and read Warrior Cats, Robin, they're still releasing books for some reason and for some reason I keep reading them :)))

I imagine 1800-era media piracy being like, a moderately skilled pianist from a wealthier family that attends the newest concerts regularly, who then goes out and plays these new tunes by ear for cheap.

[@catsaint9614]

3:27 Kinda random but if you're looking for a "whimsical" magic book check out Cradle by Will Wight, easily my favorite book. It's an underdog story of a boy born with a "magic deficiency" as he some how survives with a lot of luck. That's a very brief summary meant to avoid spoilers, check it out.

19:32 Why the AI image?????

Likely unable to detect it, or a mistake

As a former employee at a taco bell their advertisements look just like this so I can see why the mistake was made

@6:00 yeah man, those teenage years... At the dinner table (this was before smart phones and tablets), i'd be relaying to my parents what went down at school or with my friends. 5 minutes into the story, my dad would be like, "Who's Dave again?" My mom and I would both roll our eyes and go, "Dave's the [lawyer's kid/theatre kid/guy dating Mindy/whatever trait that is unique about Dave]." Sometimes, my dad would ask, "Isn't that Josh?" To which both my mom and I would roll our eyes again and go, "No, Josh is the [insert identifiable trait of Josh]." Sometimes, there's a lightbulb moment and dad would confirm by providing additional details about the kid. More often than not, dad would just go, "uh huh," nod, and go back to his food, but we can tell he still haven't got a clue who Dave or Josh or Mindy was.

Is "Das wolken volk" The cloud people? my german isn't very good I knew das and volk but didn't know wolken so I had to google it. It has a cute title 😊

3:35 kid's books - whimsy, fun Y.A books - more real, but still fun and whimsical adult books - very grounded, but it's for a grounded audience _adult_ books - 99% of the time [even in the good ones] it's just the author's desires/fetishes {this is speaking as an outsider, i've never read any}

I'll admit it -- in a perfect utopia world, where self-driving cars were ACTUALLY good and flawless and didn't have all the shitty problems they have today? I _would_ be 10000% interested in self-driving cars. Why? I always have to beat back panic attacks any time I drive; I just physically CANNOT stand driving, it terrifies me so much. My therapist said that my fear response doesn't _quite_ meet the level required for it to be a phobia, but god _damn_ is it close. But I have things I need to do, a job to go to, college classes to attend, and so on. I cannot rely on family/friends to drive me everywhere, and paying for a taxi/Uber would actually cost me more than I earn, so I can't do that either. So I _have_ to drive. I _have_ to suffer multiple panic attacks to go about my day-to-day life. And I _hate_ it; I _hate_ not being able to exist like a normal goddamn person. I hate how, after being properly medicated and having gone through more than a decade of therapy, I'm still _like this._ But you know what I absolutely _despise,_ more than _any_ of that? _Today's self-driving cars._ I would literally rather poke my not-quite-a-phobia of driving in the face daily than put my life in Musty Wusty's hands. I cannot fathom how people trust that dude _or_ his gilded deathtraps.
