  • i didn’t really care for the story, but the gameplay was incredibly fun. i liked that it was more focused on exploration and research rather than combat, with the sneaking mechanic allowing you to capture pokemon without having to fight them.

    i also had a really good time with new pokemon snap, but it’s pretty slow paced so it might not be for everyone.










  • Norwegian children draw pee and poop, while Danish children don’t (NRK)

    A drawing of a family can made by children anywhere. But if pee and poop are involved, then it’s probably not drawn by a Danish child, research shows.

    Big news on the pigpoop front

    – Pee, poop and butt. Norwegian children find it incredibly funny. Exactly what is so funny about it, we don’t know, says Kirsten Flaten.

    . . . The researchers’ findings are nevertheless clear. These motifs appeared in 20 percent of the Norwegian drawings. The difference in motifs is clearly based on nationality and not gender.

    . . . In the small office in Sogndal, the researcher now sits with a new binder full of drawings, from Lithuania. Sheets upon sheets of colorful doodles and clear motifs. Each drawing has a patch where the children have explained what they have drawn, so that it is clear to the researchers. The new drawings show the same tendency. Family, albeit on a slightly smaller scale, and no kids having fun with pee and poop. Colorful drawings from Denmark and Lithuania, while the Norwegian ones are a little less advanced and paler.

    – What we see is that the environment affects young children. Norwegian children are more out in the woods, and have less time to perfect their drawing skills, says Flaten.

    While 4-year-olds in countries like Denmark and Lithuania often use bright colors and draw other things, Norwegian 4-year-olds are often peeing, pooping, and farting. Here, a Norwegian 4-year-old draws poop.
