Mold is the WORST. We had a similar issue before we had kids. Landlord really dragged their feet doing anything and we had a giant hole in the wall with a fan on 24/7 in our basement for like a whole year, basically until we moved out. Hopefully you’re able to get it sorted quicker than us.
Stuff happens though. It’s tough to get in quality kid time some weekends, especially when we only have so many days to not be working. Zoo’s not going anywhere, and I’m sure your kiddo will be just as excited to go another time. :)
Edit: considering the circumstances of a couple of the deaths I feel like my joke may have been in poor taste
Wild that there have been this many this close though. Generally they want you the fuck off their property if you’re going to kick the bucket so headlines like this don’t happen.
Steam also is, like most US-based social platforms, a vector for alt-right reactionary content to spread. The content moderation guidelines in Steam are guided by how far Steam knows it can take it and again, are not so different to any other tech corporation.
People rightfully complain that Twitter and Facebook are cesspools but oh my god, any time I come across anything Steam Community it is worse than most things I see on there. I’m sure Discord also has some nasty stuff but you don’t see it come up in a barely related google search because you largely have to get an invite. Almost all Steam Community stuff is public to my knowledge. I cringe when I have a technical problem with a game and the only solution I can find is in a Steam post.
“iPhone keep getting lost in your purse?” sad trombone “Can’t fit the pro in your pocket?” loud buzzer noise “Well all NEW from Apple! It’s the iPhone Sock!” cool kids with sunglasses look into the camera WOOOOAAAAHHHH
“That’s right! It’s a sock! AND a bag! AND a holder for your cool new iPhone 17 X Pro Air! Comes in these 9 wacky colors!” sparkle noise “Wear it around your arm, your shoulder , your wrist, you can even put it around your neck like a cool necklace! Go get yours today!”
It’s a pretty rare condition tbh, I think that’s why the slur took off. Gonna add more info about it in my original comment in a bit. I wonder if we could add it to the slur filter/moderate for it? I guess this is the place to ask.
Also didn’t know bog dweller lol. I’m so far behind on the latest in Terf Island name calling!
I’d actually push back on smooth brain not being ableist. It is actually a medial condition (even though that’s not the medical term for it), and I knew a kid that had it. It gave them a ton of medical complications, and it was hard watching them and their family struggle. Probably not the best thing to compare to online racists or what have you.
That being said, I do love the rest of these lol. What’s the context behind dirt person?
The prognosis for children with lissencephaly varies depending on the malformation and severity of the syndrome. Many individuals remain at a 3–5 month developmental level. Life expectancy is short and many children with lissencephaly will die before the age of 10. Some children with lissencephaly will be able to roll over, sit, reach for objects, and smile socially. Aspiration and respiratory disease are the most common causes of illness or death.[27] In the past, life expectancy was said to be around two years of age. However, with advances in seizure control, and treatments for respiratory illness, most children affected can live well beyond that age. With other advances in therapy and the broader availability of services and equipment, some children with lissencephaly are able to walk with varying degrees of assistance and to perform other functions once thought too advanced.
