Conversations I didn't expect to have as a parent no. 356: explaining what S&M safe words are to my 12 year old by replacing S&M with 'tickling fight' She occasionally sits in while I watch these streams either live or later on VoD and, most of the time, it's not a problem as I'm not worried about swearing - she hears it all in school anyway - and the team keep things to a level that would be acceptable pre-watershed on UK TV. Again, she'll generally hear worse in school anyway! I wasn't quite expecting Jackbox to throw up S&M references in a casual party game though and after a moment's hesitation, I was pretty proud of how I managed to quickly come up with the tickling fight analogy and using a safe word to when you really, really want a sibling or friend to stop tickling you! :-) Another one to add to the 'teach kids consent in an age appropriate way from the very start' toolbox! Incidentally, I've already discussed, with her and her older sister, using adapted forms of safety tools from tabletop gaming like X cards and arms crossed the chest during both play fights, sibling and sibling/parent arguments, and family discussions. We're a neurodivergent family, emotions can be complicated, hard to express, and it's easy for anyone of us to become quickly overwhelmed and no longer be able to speak. Knowing we have these tools and actually remembering to use them isn't at all easy by any means but we have to start somewhere!

There’s actually a type of ice cream called Bum Bum here in Germany! I think it’s supposed to look like a tennis racket with a bright red, sugary coating - taste-wise it’s a mix of vanilla and strawberry, and the stick is made of chewing gum. It’s really nostalgic for most people my age, aaand now I kinda want one, even though it’s really never quite as good as it was when I was a kid. Anyway, this was a great video, perfect after the stressful day I’ve had, though I’m a little sad I could not see it live. Maybe next time 😊

I'm sure someone mentioned this already but Fahrvergnügen was an advertising buzzword for Volkswagen in the early 90s (possibly only here in the States?). All I remember is that at the end of the commercials someone would say "Fahrvergnügen" and then someone else would sing, "Say the word!" for some reason. It was a very weird time.

[@triangulan]

On Knifefight Island: There was a sandbar/small island somewhere in the Old West which was literally just a place where people went to have duels and knife fights, including one where Davey Crockett killed a man (I think).
