Simple fix, just make the car even taller so children harmlessly fit underneath it. Then as long as they avoid the tires they're fine.

I uh, what? I mean...children grow! At some point they’ll be tall enough to be seen, but that they’re too short for that until then is inevitable? I mean I know what thread this is but am I missing something here?

Uh, I think you're still missing it. For example his children could be crossing the street and someone else driving the car could hit them because they literally couldn't see that there was anyone crossing in front of them.

american streets are designed pretty poorly and american drivers generally display a barely concealed disdain for anyone on foot or a bicycle surprising nobody, america has really bad stats when it comes to pedestrian and cyclist deaths when it comes to children specifically, one leading cause of injury is people backing over their own kids in their driveway, and this is the secret real reason why most new cars are mandated to have rear cameras which show the driver this blind spot

Zulily Zoetrope posted:Cultural appropriation is inherently negative. This is when you misuse an element of cultural significance, like a Native American head dress or a Scottish clan tartan or Pacific Islander face tattoos. Anything that contains personal or tribal history as part of its expression. Things that would be a crime if the appropriated party had any ability to enforce it, like how stolen valor or even copying the Burberry pattern without a license is very illegal. The weird thing about Clan Tartans is that's it's cultural appropriation in it's entirety. They simply didn't exist before the 19th Century and were invented for the burgeoning tourist industry in Scotland. Writers like Walter Scott invented a lot of the 'history' of Scotland. Your Clan Whatever tartan was invented to sell to tourists. As Billy Connolly once said, Scotland is the only country in the world where people buy their own tourist tat.

Why do I have to specifically remember to say "no ice" when I never asked for ice in the first place? So you're upset they put water in your water?

High bed heights are so loving terrible for actually loading/unloading poo poo from. I like to pull my old Ranger up next to all the bro trucks at the hardware store, and load 1000lbs of lumber and concrete in the bed, while the dude next to me clambers up his rear bu per and throws a stick of PVC pipe and a 2x4 into his quad-cab dually RAM 3500 with less usable bed space.

Your Clan Whatever tartan was invented to sell to tourists. Tartans are one of the best examples of negative cultural appropriation. Scots did make and wear tartans maybe even going back to before Roman times, and different patterns may have had different regional associations which may have been starting to turn to clan/military associations during the 18th century. Then the English passed a law banning tartan (and other Gaelic customs) as a way to suppress Scottish independence during the Jacobite rebellions.Then forty years later after the Jacobites imploded, the law was repealed after a bunch of rich fucks in London lobbied for it, leading to it becoming a fashionable craze with spawned the whole false history with clan tartans and all that stuff. So the Scots had a product of their culture, the tartan, banned by the English as a direct attack on their cultural identity as Scots. Then when the threat of Scottish rebellions was gone, the English brought Tartans back and invented a whole fanciful history for them that flattered the English image of highland Scots and their culture.
