How old are you guys, if you don’t mind me asking? It seems that generally younger people don’t see this as an innate violation of privacy, where older people feel quite surveilled and even like they’re being viewed as untrustworthy for someone to ask this of them.

I’ve never cheated on my spouse (not even close), I’ve never felt any inclination to lie about my whereabouts. I can see the safety aspect of this, logically. I would feel offended if my spouse asked me to be a dot on his phone, as if he was asking to own me. We share a home, a child, a bank account, a car, but we don’t share location. I don’t even keep my location activated for my own use unless I’m actively navigating somewhere new.

We’ve got plenty of “normal” problems, but none of them lead me to want his location. I simply trust him enough. It feels to me like if you need your partners location on tap, you must first have other problems

Right but if my neighbor across the street has one, my house is being surveilled a lot more than is theirs.

Wait am I confused on what an inner monologue is? Is it different from a train of thought? Do I just think I have one? Do people have a non metaphorical inner monologue where they physically hear thoughts? What percent are they in control of the thoughts?

If your mind wanders, isn’t that the inner monologue?

That’s not a great take.

Children are people, don’t make them wear diapers! They can pee anywhere they want!

Children are people! Don’t limit their screen time! If you just give them plenty of toys, they will be capable of limiting their own screen time!

Children are people! They are resilient! Let them watch R-rated films and have unfettered access to the Internet!

No one is talking about putting a leash on an eight year old. We’re talking about letting a 14 month old get to experience the privilege of walking in a public place rather than being trapped on Mom’s hip or in a stroller.

A little less than a third of people voted for it. A little less than a third against it. A little more than a third didn’t vote. There was no majority here. I don’t get this “you wanted this, so duck you, enjoy the consequences” response. A third of us fought against this. Our kids don’t deserve a hell scape because boomers are gullible.

I think that’s pretty standard for public speaking. I’ve been printing stuff that large since highschool with decent eyesight. You just print as large as you can while keeping it all on one sheet
