Every person I’ve ever lived near with a dog would leave and let the dog bark for hours while they were gone. Current neighbor’s dog does this as well. Are people with dogs just ALL oblivious to this, or do they just not give a fuck about other people and their dog’s behavior?
Also, why do so many people find this desirable to have in their lives? Can you tell I am not a dog person?
Now they have come home but the dog is still barking continuously. Which confirms that the answer is the second one.
Don’t 👏 get 👏 a dog 👏 if you can’t 👏 train it 👏

I wish people in general knew how to use the cues people use in restaurants, when walking in crowded areas. Stuff like shouting “corner” and “behind” and “sharp” on the off chance they’re carrying something pointy, and staying to the right side of the sidewalk or whatever.
I found when serving in a crowded space that the diners don’t really understand anything, let alone cues staff use on each other. Even if I yelled a sentence like “coming around the corner with a tray of food/drinks!” they were completely oblivious unless security yelled “MOVE!”
I think people get dumber when they’re standing around in a crowded environment that’s supposed to be fun. It’s like they know they’re being served so they just drop all comprehension of the world around them because they expect to have that done for them as well.
I’ve noticed the whole pandemic this weird thing where I’ll be walking down the street and someone will lock eyes with me and suddenly walk straight towards me then change course right before they collide with me, almost like a glitchy NPC.
I don’t know why people do it but it’s scary! Has anyone else experienced this in cities or otherwise? It’s like they’ll be walking straight not towards you but opposite direction adjacent you then see you, make intense eye contact and jerk into a path directly towards you... 😟
I’m in NYC. Is this some kind of intimidation thing that young people are doing? Like remember when there was that thing online where women were walking at men to see if they’d move if they didn’t move for them and were colliding with strangers on the street because of it
Parents homeschooling will make parents smarter. I saw a news segment where a mom said “I have to teach it to myself then teach them, it’s too much!”. Parents are brainwashed to think this is bad, but this constant state of learning is what keeps our minds from aging!
There’s this misconception that teachers have to be these geniuses that have all the info at the ready in their heads at all times. This is not true usually. They go off materials and they teach the same specific stuff over and over. A parent only has to learn and teach it once.
Imagine your child is learning science. Not only do you get to brush up on the science you were hazy on in school, with your now more able adult mind, you get to explain it to your child in a way that will actually interest THEM because you know them better than anyone. Win, win.
Ok I’m sorry for being so mean to wrestling. That was uncalled for. 😇 However, I’m not sorry for being so mean to public schools. That was very called for. 😎
The wrestling thing was PMS combined with pandemic fatigue and the fact that wrestling will always have lulls and go through boring phases and that’s ok it’s still great.
The public schools thing was based on the reality that public schools are just a means to totalitarian control over the minds and behavior of the masses no matter what side controls them and how now they’re controlled by communist minded radicals.
You know how bad parents just give their kids screens to get them to shut up and be distracted while they get real shit done? That’s elites with the masses.
And you know how bad parents give their kids shitty plastic versions of everything to play with instead of doing enriching activities with them with real things they could break? That’s the elites with the masses.
A thing all parents realize, good and bad, is that kids of all ages think they know everything and want to do it all, even when they know very little. Give them a plastic saw and hammer and plastic food and a plastic kitchen and a tv and a phone, and they think they’re involved.
