Decided to grab a closer look at Alex turning Kurt into a knife block. And it is quite correct that she offed him with his own boy toy knife. Well, at least he got his final hug from Alex; bear hugs are still hugs. Kurt should've called Paco for some melee practice prior, my man, idk.
The lounge is empty, by the way; no other NPC models are there.
john and his niece going for a walk, arm-in-arm, so gemma can confide in him about her ghost problem without worrying her mum......i'm severely unwell about them.
Honestly what i want MOST right fucking now is an infinite earths/multiverse style event where there's some dimensional crossover type thing but not like huge just like
Just Brucie.
Just dear darling Brucie Wayne plopped right into the middle of Battinson's Gotham. Right in the manor. Right on the spray painted hardwood floors. Right in front of the poor little meow meow himself.
vote in your penis poll? no need. i've already quite perfectly envisioned the results. a shaft length of about 70%... the remainder split between two balls, the left teste just minutely smaller than its mirror twin... quite exquisite. if you'll excuse me, i've more posts to see in my mind's eye.
i know i should probably just wishfully think my way into believing that that little girl who gets triggered by the word 'no' is ok now, but...
... do you have an update on her? is it good news? if not, do you have any good news for me?
I do, actually, and it is good news! She's basically my bonus child, and we (husband and I) had several good discussions with her parents (now good friends) about spanking and discipline.
Side note: We didn't go into it as a lecture of "we're right you're wrong, here's how to parent your child". It came up naturally one day when said little girl hit her mom, and mom 'swatted her butt' about it and told her "no hitting," and my husband who was right there automatically went, "But remember, when grown ups hit it's okay." And that made the mom stop and think. We're lucky she's a blunt person to begin with and openly appreciates others also being straightforward. Cue a long discussion about the research behind spanking, especially for kids of a young age, and alternative discipline methods.
Not just because of that, but the overall result is that they actually spank way, way less now, if ever. (For which I'm very grateful!!) She's still rather... averse to confrontation or situations where she thinks she's in trouble, but she doesn't have the panic response anymore. She also doesn't default to thinking she's going to get spanked, and she can handle a simple no in a normal way now. There are some times when she gets a bit tense about us correcting her or asking her not to do something, but it's not as frequent or as visceral now, and I can confidently say that when this change started was directly correlated to when her parents started spanking less (and going to family therapy for unrelated reasons, but it helped communication in all aspects, so here's my obligatory plug for therapy even if you're not mentally ill).
In fact, she's come such a long way that once a few months ago, she pushed our soap dispenser off the counter and it shattered. Instead of hiding, bursting into tears, or otherwise having an "Oh crap it's my fault and I'm so scared" moment, she openly admitted to us that she had pushed it on purpose because it was in her way. She was sorry it broke, but she didn't panic thinking we were going to be mad at her. (And we weren't; we explained that we don't knock things over on purpose even if they're in the way, that's when we ask for help, and she apologized and that was that.)
So yes, good news! She's a fun, happy little girl, my daughter's best friend, and in most ways your average preschooler.
And a fun, unrelated anecdote from her: She can't say the "k" sound yet and replaces it with a "t." This is fine, and quite normal for a lot of kids. But her favorite show, which she talks about and reenacts all the time, is called Super Kitties. It's deeply hilarious, and I have to work hard to keep a straight face when she's telling me all about those there Super Titties, which are, of course Titties, but they're Titties that are superheroes. Her favorite Titty is the pink Titty. She sure loves those Titties.
Kids are a never ending source of entertainment, y'all.
