I think you're missing something big. I actually thought that they made it too obvious (which probably means I'm wrong). This is just my opinion, but I'm pretty sure I'm right, so don't click on this unless you're willing to (possibly) rob yourself of what will be a big reveal.

This season is going to be a mind fuck. I'm confused, but I think we're supposed to be.

Advice for non musical parent
I echo what everyone is saying. I played an instrument through college and my wife was an accomplished pianist who taught privately for years, so we've been in a different position than you. Even so, private lessons for my daughter (violin), were super important and helpful. Newsflash- kids don't like to learn from their parents. My son wasn't quite as interested, so school class was sufficient. If she's in a school program, and you end up getting private lessons, I wouldn't worry about addressing theory separately. That'll come. Beyond that, I encourage you (well everyone), to have multiple instruments in the house- accessible and even on display if possible. They don't need to be high end, and you shouldn't attach any expectations to them- just have them there. The musically curious will gravitate to them. For us that meant guitars, ukuleles, trombone, keyboard, violin, and some percussive instruments. Now deeper in high school, my kids have each shifted to the choir from their primary instruments, but it's not unusual at all to hear a guitar being played in a room by my daughter, or seeing my son banging keys figuring out a popular song.

Trump’s America
Don't call me a child!!!!!11111 Not clutching pearls, not losing sleep, and I said nothing of the tone, just context. The tone was brilliant. The Trans, trans, trans shot was brilliant. She could have called her "the gentlewoman from South Carolina" while dripping just as much contempt in her para-language as she did saying child. Jared Moskowitz is a master at playing dirty while looking nice. Jesus, I posted the damn clip to make fun of Nancy, with the tiniest of qualifiers regarding Crockett. Focus.

The innie will remember what happened when they were transported to the real world, but nothing more about it. The outie, as Ted said, will not remember anything that transpired while the innie was there. We see all of this when Dylan was sent to overtime. When he was pulled back he remembers what happened in the closet, but his outie had to ask if Milchick got what he wanted.

17 year-olds, Dude.
It's pronoun is "It". That's the proper pronoun for a "fire tornado". Eric used it, and you affirmed it. What am I missing here?

Trump’s America
Oh, I don't know, "Somebody’s campaign coffers are struggling right now so she’s going to keep saying trans trans trans.. Child listen" is pretty fucking direct" Whatever, Mace is Crazy, and Trump's America will spawn more and more of this. Carry on.

Trump’s America
Oh bless your heart. Why are you talking about the general neutrality of a word when we happen to know the the exact context in which It was used here. In this case, it was meant antagonize and diminish. Just like my use of the otherwise innocuous "bless your heart" was meant to trigger an emotional response from you (it worked, didn't it). I apologize. it was only meant to further my point. As for the whether formal settings like Congress and Court should accept new vernacular as a substitute for more formal language, we just disagree- that's cool. And with that I yield the rest of my time to the dude from D-town.

Trump’s America
Well thank you for that lesson in Southern Speak. Of course it was slang, but come the fuck on. It was meant to belittle and antagonize and it worked. Don't directly refer to fellow congresspeople as child, buddy, boy, girl, and pal. Surely we can acknowledge that without forfeiting the right to ridicule Nancy's gloriously over the top, non-proportional response.

If you're referring to Nancy's alleged injury by a "pro trans man", it was very much in the news. He shook her hand "aggressively", causing great pain and injury. https://thehill.com/homenews/house/5035804-nancy-mace-handshake-dispute-arrest/

Trump’s America
She's not nearly as stupid as Bobo or MTG, but she's been out crazying the shit out of both of them for the better part of a year. At the levels these 3 women (and of course many of the men) are at, crazy vs stupid becomes a distinction without much difference.

Trump’s America
OK, don't refer to grown-ups (even batshit crazy ones) as children. Still, got to love Nancy growing with... Of course, she only meant to, you know, discuss policy some more.

Beer 2025: Merry Christmas Everyone, Including the Haters and Losers
Ha, though I remember fondly the days of chasing whales and trading across country with the likes of you and @patrickdrinksbeer. I couldn't imagine having the desire or ambition to do any of that shit now. Some of the seasonally released beers that I used to camp out and shop around to find now sit on the shelves for months. I still enjoy a good brew, and look forward to a couple readily available seasonals, but these days I pretty much stick to a couple locals and call it good.

2nd season reviews are out, and predictably amazing (100% on Rotten Tomatoes). One theme I picked up reading them though is that the show assumes you remember everything, so a re-watch is indeed advisable. At least watch a couple of high quality recaps on YouTube (I've linked a good one above.- America's Foreign Policy & Other Shit Going On Around the World thread
Fucking sold!- Trump’s America
Marge's involvement notwithstanding, it's actually not a bad test balloon to see which republicans in the house are prepared to stand down on these types of insignificant Trump musings. Because there will be a lot of dipshittery.- Trump’s America
She's got the millennium right. Close enough.- Trump’s America
I posted a video from election night in which he was just fine. Old, for sure, but walking, hugging, shaking hands, and actively monitoring the room. - Severance (Apple TV)
