Whether people like his videos or not is irrelevant. He has done a lot for lots of causes and he genuinely appears to wish everyone the best. It isn't a stunt. Over the years he's put his actions where his words are to prove that he cares.

I don't watch him as much as I used to, but whenever I do or hear something about him, that much hasn't changed.

Some people in the comments are missing the point. You didn't want something. You told your parents you and your partner didn't want it. You were given and pressured into it regardless.

Do not feel awful for not appreciating it. It doesn't matter why you don't. Your parents have ignored you completely. Not just you on the cruise, but your wishes in the first place. It doesn't matter how nice Cozumel is. If you are stressed out from the cruise experience to start with, you won't be in the mind space to enjoy something else you might have if you were visiting it normally.

OP, this is not your fault. You have every right to feel angry. You were left out in many ways and guilted into feeling bad about yourself for not enjoying something you upfront said you didn't want.

I hope this gives you the ability to stand your ground in the future. Sure, it can be nice to experience new things and find out you like something you never thought you would. But that's up to you to decide. Whether its about a cruise or something else, only you and your partner should make that decision for yourselves. I hope you call your parents out on this, but if you don't, I hope you can always say "no" without buckling in the future.

As uncertain as I am about the technology, people already steal voices from voice actors, singers, and celebrities. At this point I’m just glad these artists gave their permission.

Unfortunately it's only painful for the rest of us.

All those medical professionals who have said it is best not to do anything but sleep/have sex in your bedroom must be screaming right now. As well as everyone who doesn't want to live in the office.

I couldn't sleep with someone sitting right there (making whatever noise). I couldn't work with someone sleeping under me either.

However, while I hate it for the work environment, it's a space saver for those who live in small apartments. Like all those room set ups in IKEA.

Lemons were only good for lemonade when I was a child. Now they make the best cakes and cookies too.

Charles Barkley should have been the hero of Space Jam.

Love Quaker parrots. Stories about animals warning humans who aren't paying attention also warm my heart.

The article itself? "Todler" and "bagan" all within the first two paragraphs? How does that get on a news site? The article isn't even that long! The title got "toddler" right!

Science is rather slow on some obvious stuff, huh?

Oh, I'm sorry. My brain passed over the "often". My bad.

I haven't turned it off at all yet.

They can also be posts from communities you've already blocked while curating your kbin experience, which is a downer.
