criticizing childrens media is important and absolutely necessary but when i say i dont want discourse about kids shows im not saying ‘dont call out the racism in thia show, its for kids, it doesnt matter’ what im saying is no i dont want to see essays on why catra from she ra is an irredeemable abuser written by a 26 year old who doesnt go outside

You don’t always need to talk…or speak…like its good to shut the fuck up sometimes…i love not talking
more things i’ve discovered after 2 years of raising garden snails:
- they will wiggle their eye stalks in excitement
- they have favorite places to sleep and favorite friends to sleep with
- they’re good for your skin so let them run around on ur face!!!
- they can feel their shells, which means they can feel u pet them (pet gently!!)
- u can help a snail with a broken shell by giving it eggshells or cuttlebones to scrape (the calcium helps them patch up!)
- they like a change of scenery and will explore all day if u change something
- absolute cuddle bugs. love to snuggle with u, with friends, with dirt
- u can hear them chew!! listen closely when u feed them….. asmr
- as distinct as snowflakes, every single one is different!! i can tell all of my snails apart easily
- babies. absolute baby children
- speaking of babies, baby garden snails are no bigger than raindrops and translucent… delicate!! keep in a separate enclosure until they’re bigger!! baby jail!!!
- some snails are shy……… kiss them. they are important
no one wants to hear it but love is earned after the initial infatuation. commitment is something u both mutually agree to and then from there it’s work. it’s not work like it’s a chore it’s jus work like it takes effort. to get good at these things takes practice. it takes practice to learn to communicate better and it takes practice to learn to love each other in the ways u need to be loved.

20 year old beginner: one year of learning flute and butterfly knife skillz :)
Fun fact: Adults actually learn those “You need to practice!” skills better than children do.
Kids tend to want to do literally anything aside from learning this skill my parent is forcing me to learn.
Adults actually can sit down and practice things for hours on end. Adults WANT to practice to get their skills better. Adults deliberately set aside time every day to practice. Even if it’s just 20 minutes, it’s productive growth and not wiggling in your chair mournfully watching birds out the window.
Anything from Drawing to Weaving to Violin to fuckin flipping bufferfly knives like a pro - choose a skill and LEARN, dammit! None of that ‘Children’s brains are more malleable’ bullshit. Brain squish is not the end-all of learning!
