The typhus outbreak in LA is a prime example of that
Unfortunately, it can't always be avoided. Even in a place as white as Montana, your neighbors might catch something on a trip to Disneyland or something
@TMatthews what about kids with the mTHFR mutation? My wife claims this increases risk of adverse reaction to the heavy metals in vaccines.
Do you guys do Santa? I’m not keen on lying to the kids but Santa is trad.
@Prestor John Saint Nicholas was a real person, it would be weird to make St. Nick the main focus of the entirety of Christmas, but the real Saint Nicholas has had a role in winter holiday celebrations for over a thousand years at this point. It's not as flash-bang as Coca-Cola Santa but the more real version St. Nick is not totally alien or weird to the culture either. http://www.ncregister.com/daily-news/st.-nicholas-reveals-the-true-spirit-of-giving http://www.stnicholascenter.org/pages/gift-giving/
I will not tell my future children that Santa is real. I still have a chip on my shoulder about being lied to as a kid about that and other things.
@Tanner - SC I felt that way too before red pilling. There is something about tradition that is now appealing. I plan to answer questions with questions. Dad is Santa coming to our house? I don’t know son what do you think? I won’t squash dreams or fantasies but I will not lie or pass my authority to a coke a cola ad. I think @ThisIsChris ‘s Suggestion of Telling the story of ST nick is going to fit in as well.
Most of tradition does not involve lying to children. They place a tremendous trust in parents to tell them the truth because that’s all they have to go on. I won’t take advantage of that power disparity.
@Tanner - SC see i disagree about that, but maybe because ur parent came out and said he wasnt real when u were young? I dont know. But for me we were raised beliveing in Santa and it was great. Eventually we figured it out and it didnt effect us me or my sister
And as we got older we would still put from santa on present s to our parents now and then.
Guess it was kinda fun to keep playing along.
Same here @SuperTomPerry -RI We still continue to put from Santa on certain presents & the kids all know this and are also carrying on the tradition.
It also just meant that we knew that present was extra special in its own way too.
Has anyone had experience with Freedom Project Academy for home schooling?
What are your Thoughts on Thomas the Train Engine: Consumerist BS or Trad hierarchy lesson?
Before or after the refugee trains?
I grew up on Thomas! Always loved it, hate how they’re trying to shoe horn multi culti trains into it as of late. Having the old school wooden tracks that can be put together really made me interested in machines and construction as a little boy, so that can be a positive take away if anything
@Prestor John As @Grossly Incandescent said, I was a huge fan of Thomas the Tank Engine as a kid. That being said, there is clearly a full-on infiltration campaign going on at any PBS and PBS-like show. While ideally kids wouldn't need characters, realistically speaking I know that's such a thing (I don't know if it's biological or not) but what I'll be doing is eskewing any 19th-21st century characters from Western countries. So for our kids it's going to be a combination of things like Aesop's fables, plus possible East Asian based characters like Mario. East Asian countries are likely to resist the homosexual-industrial complex better than Western ones.
I’ve not seen any ethnic trains except the mechanic. Maybe we only have the old ones.
There’s is are dope and the boy loves them. I’m building a train table for Christmas.
Few things capture ye olde "faustian spirit" better than a steam engine hollaring its way through an impassable cliff face in the mountains with a thousand tons of cargo in tow.
@Prestor John ethnic trains:
My friend's sister is very pregnant right now and is bored and asking for podcasts
Is there anything that promotes our ideas a bit that would be appealing to a fairly apolitical soon to be mother?
Dan Carlin's hardcore history. Select Myth of the 20th Century Episodes.

I watched this twice in a row in summer school because I was very bad at studying for math

Donald Duck in mathamagic land.
such a great video
We had it on VCR
I have a question, stepdaughter is having hard time with potty training 1 of her boys,my grandson. Any suggestions? He won't go 2 in the toilet.
Sticker chart, small prizes, candy, etc
They have tried that,still having trouble. The other boy was no problem & younger. But her older 1,he just is being difficult.
She has even gone on a mommies facebook potty group with no luck.
He had to have suppository before and don't want to have to resort to that obviously.
Consistency and finding motivators is my suggestion.
That's what i was telling her,guess they need to just find the right 1. So will work on,just trying to see if others knew of something they had dealt with that might help.
Thanks though!
Good luck!
