There he is

The glorious thing about IE is that we all have a common goal, even though we really are _diverse_ in the sense that religion, politics, and that sort of stuff is all over the spectrum within the org. As Admin said, some topics just lead down a road that are distracting from the common goal and better left to discussing elsewhere.

I feel like these discussions are okay if you keep it civil and people who might be offended can opt out, so reviving that might work. Ultimately though, I doubt anyone will change their religious beliefs based on a discord chat and it might just be counter-productive

Sorry guys, i thought that as long as it did not get heated we were good... but it was a good reminder. I appreciate you reminding me of rule 3. We are all in this together, i consider you guys all family

You're all good, brother. Thank you for understanding @Grayson. Much respect

@TMatthews They are, thing is, all it takes is one person to come along with an inappropriate remark and then we're cleaning up a big mess. Easier to just not have it here.

I personally think such topics are fascinating, so if you wanna discuss, bug @JohnStrasser for invites.

How about that sports ball gents

*lel*

@MrDefault I changed my AVI! sheesh!

Rofl

I really like how number 3 runs the sports ball

School is cancelled for the rest of the week here due to the hurricane coming, and ya my 2 oldest daughters decided to fight over who got to sleep downstairs tonight and watch movies on the big tv instead of the one in their room. It was a big mess there for a few minutes.

@Phillip Wiglesworth - FL, a moderator both on and off the server.

lol kids! so i was in Ocala FL over the weekend... i flew out of Tampa late last night and it was raining like heck

I unplugged the tv in the living room and sent them to their room...to watch movies together. @sigruna14

Ocala FL; horse capital of the world !!

i wanted to see alligators but all i saw was horses.

@Phillip Wiglesworth - FL Very nice.

They _will_ learn to love each other

How old are they?

give them a book

The Fourth Political Theory would make excellent bedtime reading

@TMatthews 9 and 8

My sister and I got along well at that age, but I doubt that would have been the case if we shared a room

For kids, if you plan to have 3+, you need at least three bedrooms (parents, boys, girls), and that's IF you nursery in the parental room (rough). So that's four if a separate nursery?

Let me know if I'm off-base.

Ideally, they'd at least get their own room as teenagers, but we shouldn't let not being able to afford a mansion stop us from having large families

Yeah my little brother would not sleep in a separate room from me until he was around 8. Kids do not need their own room until they are teens.

@TMatthews ya, those 2 share a room currently. They begged to when we moved to this house, but that was 5 years ago and they're now growing into the age that they want time away from each other. Fighting is not the way to earn it, so we're teaching them to either compromise politely, or we choose for them.

@Phillip Wiglesworth - FL That's smart. At least they're close in age. I have a teenage cousin who's 8-10 years older than her sisters and she can barely stand sharing the house with them

"You're the meanest daddy in the world!"
_Ya, you won't say that later when you figure out you can take turns tonight, tomorrow, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday._

> tfw only child and has no clue what sharing is 😳

I'd hate to be an only child

Soooo...now I'm waiting for them to come down and tell me they figured out they can take turns, (I can hear them upstairs discussing it right now 😂 😂 ) and ask me to plug the TV back in.

DEFEND THE ROCKIES

My sisters were six years apart and shared a room for three years. Luckily though my mom was clever and set up dividers and furniture that smartly bisected the room as much as possible (older still had to walk through part of youngers' to get to her zone.)

Oh yeah, dm me if you want an invite, I'm actually probably gonna give control of that server to someone else. Baby on the way and work is crazy.
