  • Yeah. I’d say it is. a hard 06:00 wake up time/bedtime is probably going to fuck your kid up. Teens are rather more prone to sleeping in and staying late as a matter of biology. teenage circadian rhythms are shifted later than young children and adults shift back as the age. it may be necessary to wake up that early to get to school, but when there’s no school? probably not his normal.

    Also, just for the record smartphones are how teens tend to communicate with one another, as well as the outside world. Does it need guardrails? yes. but you’re not doing your kid any favors by keeping them high, only delaying the inevitable as well as forcing him to hide and go around your back for things he’s going to find anyway. And I’m just going to assume that screentime doesn’t include things like homework.




  • big floppy hats and juggalo make up is on order. (for the make up, widen or narrow the eyes, add dark lines along the jaw that create a false jawline, maybe include dots to mimic more eyes, etc,) Also wear baggy clothing because they’re not just using facial recognition. gate recognition as well as other biometrics. wear black or dark clothing.

    also it won’t matter if you have your cell phone with you. Either put it in a faraday pouch or leave it behind (maybe consider getting a cheap burner for comms, that you can prepay with cash.). If you go the faraday route, the moment you take it out, it’ll start broadcasting.

    For recording… get a camera. a camcorder is one option. Another is a body camera (cheapos start at like 30 bucks on amazon.). Also remember that Video=Evidence, so if you see people about to do something they maybe shouldn’t consider turning away, etc, as well as avoiding other protestor’s faces. (especially if you push video up on the internet later. Blur those faces out.)
