    I’ll agree with you there, I shot myself in the arm when I was only 3 with a pellet gun. My dad realized his mistake and kept all guns away from me, until age 10, when he took me out to shoot some bottles and cans, and teach me proper gun safety.

    Yes that might have been an earlier childhood lesson than many parents might agree to, but he was proper about what and when he taught me. Like, aside from the obvious of keep the gun on safety and never point it at anyone or anything unless you intend to use it, who thinks of things like, don’t lean on a rifle with the barrel in the dirt? The dirt can and will clog the barrel and cause the gun to explode!

    Anyways, back on point of AI…

    Most parents aren’t just up and giving their kids guns, but major corporations are shoving this AI shit up everyone’s asses, as much as they can anyways, knowing good and well that one AI model says 1+2+3=15 and another AI model is suggesting people suffering pain to use heroin…

    So what’s the answer, avoid AI? Well fuck Google then…

    Meh, I was playing with magnets in kindergarten. Supervised of course though, both at home and in school, but even if I wasn’t supervised, I never felt the urge to eat them (or eat Lego or other random non-edible stuff for that matter).

    Magnets are a strange wonder that tends to perk our natural human curiosity. While I totally agree that kids shouldn’t handle magnets unsupervised, still the kid was 13?! I’ll never understand it, but there is the condition called Pica, basically the urge to eat random non-food items…

    I have no idea really, but bigger questions come to mind, like does the kid already have a history of eating stupid things, why did they eat so many, how did the kid order them from Temu, did the parent(s) approve the order, how did they get into New Zealand where they’re apparently banned…?

    🤷

    At least the kid is still alive. 👍

    The 5mm x 2mm magnets had attached and aligned in 4 distinct rows, in different areas of the intestines, and the rows had attached to each other between the different areas of the intestines, causing some intestinal necrosis which had to be removed as well.

    I’m pretty sure they weren’t magnets within toys, but rather just the plain magnets by themselves. Neodymium magnets no less, the powerful modern ones.

    Kinda helps to read the article yo, but yeah the kid did a real dumdum there, almost like they were looking for the most excruciating Darwin Award.
