@futurebird Adult child of spankings here and I concur! I've raised 3 kids without spankings and they all turned out great and are successful young adults. There was nothing a spanking ever did for me besides make me feel scared and unloved. Spanking humiliates children. It makes them feel vulnerable to adult anger.
Spanking is abuse perpetrated on a smaller, weaker person by a bigger, stronger person who has lost control of themself and run out of better ideas to modify a child's behavior.
I recently turned down a project for a carbon credit company. I know the folks involved and they are all really good people with the best intentions, but I don't think this is what we should be selling. We need real change immediately, not band aids to cover the boo boos we've inflicted on our planet.
This is an issue that I would love to see fixed, so when on mobile I could click an X or swipe and remove the alt text view. Long descriptions obliterate the image they’re meant to describe. I can read the cartoon description, but I can’t really see it.
To be clear, I add alt text routinely. This isn’t a complaint about alt text, just how it renders on a smaller mobile screen.
I'm dealing with my dying mother's financials. After years of giving her money every month for food and utilities, I've just discovered she's been donating thousands of dollars each year to a few viable charities and even more GOP PACs that she believed were charities helping veterans and young people in need. She's a Democrat. She had no idea what she was giving her money to and now I'm having to undo all of those automated debits. Check on your elder parents. Someone is probably scamming them.
