  • Train your children properly and you shouldn’t need to use parental controls to control their screen time.

    Exactly! I’ve always thought that kids should be taught to exercise healthy limits on their own, because after all, some day they are going to be adults and won’t have anyone but themselves preventing them from eating nothing but ice cream, running into traffic, and playing Minecraft for 14 hours.













  • One thing I love here is how I can disagree with someone and still have a civil discussion. It feels weirldy amazing to reach a consensus instead of just getting stuck in a cycle of unrelated personal insults. Sure, shitheads like that do still exist here, but I don’t remember ever having a civil disagreement/argument on Reddit.

    I also feel that I’ve embraced the practice of blocking & moving on a lot more after I moved here, and tried my best to be more constructive.






  • Use only textiles made of cotton, wool or linen (I recommend linen in summer and wool in winter, since cotton isn’t very good at conserving your body heat), look for a bamboo toothbrush, avoid foods in plastic packaging (this can sadly be difficult) and only put them in ceramic, metal or glass containers.

    I assume your goal is to minimise the amount of microplastics inside your body, so the materials that touch your food are a priority. The amount of microplastics in your food or drink also depends on how long they are in contact with plastic. For example, if you have juice in a plastic bottle, drinking it right away or putting it in a plasticless container would probably result in less microplastics than storing it in the said bottle.

    If you are more concerned about nature, try shopping at second-hand stores.
