Brighter than ever, thanks to Steam Deck and Microsoft's general idiocy.

If parents have pedagogic experience in teaching, understand the possible downsides and how to mitigate them, then I can understand homeschooling. Otherwise I’d recommend normal schooling.

And here in Finland this guy is all ears when he hears that Iran needs a new Ayatollah.

Well, it wasn’t intended for kids but I watched it regardless.

Basically many movies from the 90s Disney Renaissance era: Hercules Aladdin Pocahontas Tarzan Mulan And of course the Pixar movies from that era: Toy Story A Bug’s Life James Bond flicks: GoldenEye Tomorrow Never Dies The World is Not Enough Die Another Day Other movies: The Mask Home Alone 1 & 2 Ace Ventura Spirited Away The first Pokemon movie The Matrix 1–3 Kummeli Kultakuume Pahat Pojat South Park: Bigger, Longer, Uncut

I don’t think libertarianism works, it relies naively on how the free market is omnipotent, how freedom is everything and how having a small government is somehow good. There are no countries that are entirely libertarian, that also tells a lot about the ideology’s applicability in practice. A brilliant book about why libertarianism doesn’t work is a book “A Libertarian Walks into a Bear”. In the book, a group of libertarians decides to take over the small town of Grafton in New Hampshire en masse as part of their “Free Town Project”. Of course this group cares neither about the town’s original inhabitants nor their rights. What’s the result? They hollow out pretty much everything from the library, to the school, the fire department and the police. No regard is given to any laws on hunting or food disposal, and that lures in bears, who turn so aggressive that they invade people’s homes. In addition to bears, sex offenders and all kinds of criminals are also lured into Grafton. It’s pretty entertaining book, I recommend it.
