/abdl/ - Adult Baby - Diaper Lover★

I will legit watch Blues Clues and Kipper. If I could get a king size set of Digimon sheets I totally would.

>>37376 (OP)

Is liking cartoons past childhood an Asperger's thing? Because I'm watching Futurama right now and literally everyone I know watches Rick and Morty.

>>37395

Only if it's rated y or y7

>>37395

I don't think so, plenty of cartoons deliberately aimed at kids feature humour that's funny even for adults. Spongebob springs to mind, Simpsons and Futurama as well.

I can't get into this stuff. I just feel like an asshole.The regress thing works for me in stories, but IRL I just feel like a stupid asshole. Guess it's just not my thing.

>>37400

I hear ya. You just gotta let go & not give a crap.

What helps me is usually being high or tired and just wanting to chill, watch a cartoon, and maybe wear a diaper or drink from a sippy cup or color.

It's also easier if you have a little friend whether IRL or online or a partner. But that's not always easy to find.

Some people also are into public humiliation to act young and have others treat them as such or as if they're "disabled/autistic". Legit, I know a guy who baby-talks everywhere, he did it at school and still does at stores.

>>37400

Me neither, but this thread got my thinking about my early childhood, and it was a lot of either playing with my older siblings toys and their friends, or Looking after my Younger siblings while our parents worked.

So even when I think about being the kid, I end up in the caretaker roll. Sort of funny that way.

>>37395

He said "kids cartoons", Futurama and Rick and Morty don't fall in that category. I'm not even sure watching legit kids cartoons is really a sign though.

>>37455

Completely unrelated, holy shit, where did you get the logoless version of that image? I asked dcrisisbeta, the artist for it, and he wouldn't give it to me at all.

>>37483

I edited it myself.

I actually have a way to automatically remove dA watermarks, but I haven't yet updated it to work with the latest watermark design so I just did it by hand. If you're interested I can extract the new watermark (I just need to upload two reference images to dA) and give you the script to use.

>>37489

Damn. You do good work. I will definitely remember if I find some other images that need to be de-watermarked.

My old hot wheels make up most of the toys I've kept from my childhood, and they're also my favourite. I gotta get deep in little space before I can actually have fun playing with them, but baby toys are a non-starter. I'll take Lego blocks over letterblocks any day. As for cartoons, I took German in high school, and a little over a year ago, I started downloading pre-K level shows (paw patrol, daniel tiger, backyardigans, to name a few). The odd words I could pick out were a way to emulate a toddler-level vocab, I guess. It started as just an ageplay thing, but turned into sincere appreciation, as well as a useful tool to aid learning the language. But the english versions are far too mundane and simple to listen to, even in little space.

>>37432

I can identify with you. In my little space I don't feel like a baby, or even a toddler. Kindergarten at the very least.

>>37455

Not same anon, but yes to all of those. I think because as a kid, I wanted to be babied, so my little space is a kid being babied. Do you like the idea of a highchair with restraints and being spoonfed? That's a big one for me.

>>37506

>A big one for me is everything to do with potty training

Same! Or how about not being trusted to wipe yourself? Skid marks found in the back of my pull-ups, and then I'm not allowed to wipe myself, and get my hand slapped when I reach for the wipes. When huggies came out with "fade when wet" designs back in 2000 or so, I always fantasized about either having my "big boy stars" checked, or being told to make sure I still have them, especially with friends around. It's a shame the AB diaper companies don't make training pants, as far as i know.

>I used to fantasize a lot about having a secret stash of baby stuff out in the forest and going there to have accidents in my diapers/pants.

Awe, thats a cute idea. I was an indoor kid, but I always wanted my own treehouse, where I could play baby without my parents catching me.

As for cartoons, Treehouse TV has youtube channels, in many different languages. I've embeded the backyardigans pilot from their Japan channel. That selection of episodes is slim, but it's a good place to start. offliberty is a useful tool for downloading, just copy youtube URL and they'll generate a download link. Another trick I found for language barriers in internet searches is to look up the wiki page of a show, switch languages and then you have the show title in that language. Sesame street might also be a good start, I've come across a russian version (not a dub), so if they have one in Japan, you can have a lot of fun watching that.

>>37531

>Or how about not being trusted to wipe yourself?

I like it!

Thanks for the video, by the way. That's exactly the sort of thing I'm looking for. There are a bunch of pre-K shows which have been dubbed into Japanese, but the main problem is actually finding places to download them. None of the normal anime torrent sites have them because very few people want to watch them.

>>37600

yeah, I've been relegated to serienjunkies for german content. Searching foreign language terms is a bitch, but it's a high payoff. I can't read Japanese so the only tip I can offer is looking up local children's channels in Japan on youtube, they may host a handful of series to get you started. It's iffy, Kinder Kanal was the only TV station I found so generous.

Sesame street and Arthur aside, why is most of PBS so incredibly shit tier? I get that most toddler shows are edutainment, but PBS is pretty soulless compared to nickjr

>>37799

If you can post some preferences on setting, characters, mechanism or maybe a better idea of what kind of humiliation you like, I'll whip up a custom story for you.

>>37801

Well male victim. Stuff like childish clothes, help going to the potty, help wiping, skidmarks and chastising. Slowly acting like a child subconsciously, like sucking your thumb or picking your nose and stuff. I also really like punishment. Spanking, corner time, that kind of stuff. Also doctor/medical stuff, like rectal thermometers and stuff.

>>37802

alright, i just have a few questions to help customize it.

any prefered relation and gender of regressor? (eg parent, girlfriend, wife, stranger)

your favourite sports as a kid, if any? (either playing or watching)

hobbies you had as a kid, that you practice no longer or very little?

any particular diminutive/juvenile nicknames your parents had for you? (scamp, slugger, honey bunny, etc)

your favourite show as a preschooler or small child?

What did you get in trouble for the most as a child?

Any attachment objects you had? (stuffed animals and the like)

>>37803

Maybe a stranger turning into a mother figure?

Soccer pretty much. I didn't play sports much. I was more into cartoons and video games.

Lego's, video games, cartoons, playing outdoors.

Honey, sweety, people called me bubba a lot too.

When I was really young I liked blues clues and barney.

Breaking stuff, throwing fits and temper tantrums, ect.

I had (and still have) a blanket my grandmother made for me.

>>37803

high hopes

>>37801

>>37803

So any word on the story?

>>37808

sorry for the wait. I was expecting something short and sweet, but your answers gave me a fun idea that I can really work with. Not finished, but I've posted most of what I've written over at

>>37922

I'll post more there as I go. Thank you so much, this broke my writer's block on a much longer project. And thank you for saying soccer, I've been dying to drop a Messi pun in an AR story for quite some time.

>>37808

by playing outdoors, do you mean in a yard.ayground or in the woods/wild? How about a water park? Please say water park.

>>37934

Well yeah water park lol. Pretty much every place you mentioned. I loved exploring the woods as a kid! And HOLY FUCK you delivered like times 1000 man, I can't wait to read all of this! (It's 2 AM and I need bed so it'll have to wait till tomorrow lol)

>>37938

good night, lil Bubba :)

>>37939

I LOVE IT. I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE MORE! IT PUSHES SOOOOOOO MANY BUTTONS.

>>37968

That's good to hear! Trying to sqlit it into character limit is a bit cumbersome, so I'll be posting the rest on ello. Here's a link to the portion I put in the story thread

https://ello.co/pillowbottom/post/qhd6ofygvw7unm1v09ming

>>37979

as well as to find my page, of course

>>37979

Please post here when you add more.

>>37985

posted parts 5 to 8 just now

I figure I can ask this here as it's somewhat related.

Does anyone know where I can find cute summer pajamas? I've got footie pajamas but they're fleece and it's too hot now to wear them, but I still want to wear something cute to bed.

>>38002

Second this, god damn, they are sleeping on the market for these. I resorted to unstitch one of my sleepers and cut the pieces into lighter fabric.

>>37991

It's really good. I don't usually enjoy adult->baby age regression stories, but you're a talented writer. Looking forward to future chapters, especially if there's more infantile bondage and potty training stuff.

>>37991

God I'm loving this story soooooo much. Can't believe you went through so much effort just for my request. I'm LOVING IT! Can't wait to see more!

>>38016

Awe, you flatter me. There certaintly will be more of that. Martin isn't quite done with being a big boy.

>>38019

That's so good to hear. I'd been writing and scrapping stories since I was a teen. It would have been a shame to disappoint the anon who got me to finally upload a story

>>37455

Aww, thank you. ^^ I appreciate the interest there. If you wanna read more about my OC, I have his abridged bio right here: http://shaneysqueeboy.deviantart.com/art/Shaney-s-Bio-Profile-Abridged-575949346

He isn't necessarily submissive, though. He's not a remotely sexual persona, just the manifestation of my inner child, so to say. That aside, ABDL is a half-fetish for me, which means the other half is purely a lifestyle choice, one that's somewhat therapeutic. My OC/littlesona isn't involved in my fetish side of my ABDL identity.

That being said, I'm all for humiliation. That's fucking hot, man. I'm sure my OC has had plenty of embarrassing diaper checks before, but he's too big for strollers, and he prefers to wear diapers more openly when in the comfort and security of his own house, so restrictive clothing isn't necessarily his thing. Not like it would do much good in getting him to the potty, though, considering he won't even touch a potty, and hasn't since he was 4.

>>37499

Same, fam. Even when I'm regressing, I just feel a little too mentally advanced to be a baby or toddler. I value my intelligence a little too much for that. Kids have greater intellectual capacity than we give them credit for, anyway, especially in the creativity department.

>>38036

same. stupifying is hot in ageplay, but not little space. I like thinking too much

>>37979

>protagonist not completely oblivious

>protagonist not completely aware

>a given reason for humiliating protagonist

>antagonists not complete psychopaths

mother of god. is this a new day dawning? has winter finally ended for AR?

>>38045

See >>38033

>>38045

awe baby. you got a diaper fetish. these are who they'll rope you in with. it's okay to accept yourself.

>>38019

Finished it off, here's posts 9 to epilogue. Enjoy

https://ello.co/pillowbottom/post/zd4wzjs4loj_by0ys5w3ya

>>38043

I don't know about that. There are a few stories like that… None come to mind, but they're out there.

>>38149

I LOVED IT! I almost didn't want it to end, but it was perfect! Please tell me you're gonna write more, I love your work!

>>37506

I've always liked the idea of having to "practice" but never actually being allowed to move on to potty training. I still have to go through all the steps, the potty dance, announcing to mommy/daddy i gotta go, being led to the potty chair (placement of which for maximum embarrassment, like in the middle of the living room with company), then still have to sit down on top of it and use my diapers. Being changed… sometime later.

I've been really tempted to buy a potty chair that lights up and shouts encouragement; just giving up the big kid toilet as much as i can.

>>38175

Glad you enjoyed it. I definitely will, I wanted to keep going but I thought I'd save some ideas for another story.

>>37432

Yeah, I'm kinda the same way, except I'm just a bedwetter instead of needing diapers all the time. During the day I have cute tightie-whities I like to wear.

>>38190

Oooo any hints about the next one? When do you think it'll be out? You still open to requests and stuff?

>>38002

>>38004

What exactly are summer pajamas? Anything that I'd qualify as pajamas would be too hot to wear when it's warm. I usually just sleep in a t-shirt and underwear or diaper

>>38249

Just some pajamas that aren't fleece or footie. Like a two piece set with some shorts or something with a cute print. I found some I like from Cuddlz.

http://www.cuddlz.com/yellow-toy-pattern-cotton-adult-pyjamas-abdl/

>>38244

Tighty-whities are pretty cute, anon. I used to actually wear them when I was a kid, and I have a few pairs that I occasionally wear when they're not in the dirty laundry. They're comfier than I remember them being compared to my usual boxer-briefs.

I was a precocious child, so I don't really do the whole little/ageplay thing well. I mean, I guess I could play with legos, but plenty of adults play with those. Like, shit, I still have my robotics set.

>>38392

http://www.childrensplace.com/shop/us/search/boys-clothing/boys-tops-and-boys-shirts-graphic-tees

There is a size conversion chart somewhere for what a children size equals in adult size. I'm a petite guy I can wear a size 14 kids. The shirt is short around me and reveals a lot of the diaper… just like being a kid.

Funny thing is, I bought these online and a month later received a letter with details on how to care for an obese child. lol.

>>37799

This. Anyone got some stories involving stuff like this? Maybe another writefag could try their hand. It's crazy how few do shit like it.

>>38247

still open to requests. I was away for Canada day and didn't get privacy to write. Still brainstorming so no hints to drop yet.

>>38249

I used a really thin cotton weave that was very breathable and cut it into a short sleeve/leg clone of my fleece sleeper. So it's less footies, more romper. As it happens, it's my only pyjamas that I can wear this time of year

>>38394

God bless America and you for sharing this

>>38422

I'd love to see more along the lines of the last story. Kiddie stuff involving potty training, parental hygiene checking and stuff, childish behavior (really love the gross stuff you had him do that regular toddlers would do). Loved the stuff with the skidmarks and wiping. Maybe more stuff with gas? I liked the teasing and the silly stuff around farting. School would be a neat setting to explore, along with maybe doctors clinics and stuff.

If any of you adult kids like silly songs, Stevie Q finally uploaded his album Wonder Why on Youtube. Simlish versions of the title track and Cow Bay came with Sims 3: Generations, but lyrics were nonsense. This album is really joyful so far.

>>38467

>really love the gross stuff you had him do that regular toddlers would do

>toddlers

Sheesh, I guess being a gross child finally had a perk: writing about turning into a toddler. Could you elaborate on what you like about a medical setting? I'd like to include a clinic or hospital in a sequel to Stinky Street, but they aren't strong fetish scenarios for me.

>>38774

Like getting a check-up! Stuff like rectal thermometer, getting a shot on your butt-cheek, stuff like that. Maybe the doctor commenting on your hygiene? Like your skidmarks and how well you wipe? Maybe they can instruct you on proper wiping or have your mother wipe for you.

>>38774

I really hope you do more. I loved you last story!

>>39052

This

>>38861

it seems to fall under masochism as an interim between potty trained and incontinent, rather than scat. Though interchange is not inconceivable. If you subscribe to the hypothesis that fetishization is a coping mechanism for humiliation, it explains why some ab/dls, myself included, fetishize poor hygeine from when they were children. Or it could just be a subfetish under the subfetish of potty training. Either way, it's fun to read and write about in an AR story.

>>38860

>>39052

>>39136

I've had some free time to write. If all goes well, i'll have the first chunk up friday or saturday. As for hints, it involves camping, bedwetting, and a couple trips to the ER

>>39141

I can't wait!

>>39141

So what time do ya think it'll be posted?

>>39243

just now, nothing too exciting yet, just building it up, I suppose.

>>39265

Love it so far! Can't wait t see where it goes!

>>39265

oh man this gonna be good!

>>39265

Any eta on the next part? How many you think there's gonna be?

>>39265

This is fucking perfect

>>39290

Up now. Hard to say the length. I was thinking three, but judging by my pacing, there may very well be five or six. It's a crapshoot. I haven't been plotting these stories out, just writing what the characters do. I still have a few curveballs I want to throw at them.

>>39339

Thank you. Can you elaborate? I'm still new at this.

>>39406

It's just a perfect balance of believable, relatable, and wish fulfillment.

>>39406

Please do more public humiliation with Elliot where he poops his pants or diaper infront of a waitress or cashier. Thanks!

>>39426

>waitress or cashier

Thanks! You gave me a fun idea. I'll do one and a half of those.

>>39473

More when?

>>39631

next hour or two. gunna do an edit

>>39631

up now.

for those who don't want to scroll: ello.co/pillowbottom

>>39408

this.sad to see this thread go off topic, but it's great it got you to write stories. not enough AR writers can do all three at once. are you going to join ararchive? can you do a female AR story next? can you focus more on someone stuck as a baby and there mind slips? maybe a followup on that cliffhanger?

>>39645

It's not really my area of interest, but I'll give it a whirl. I'll consider the archive, but from a decade of lurking, the users and admin are always complaining about bugs.

>>39636

Oh god more plz

>>39785

This

>>39785

>>39889

settle down kids, I'll have the next part up in the next few days

>>38052

Yeah but tbh shaney has been known to the community as a mega autist, just sayin the moment you hit criticism it's not always "haters". I would upload your autistic pictures but that requires me having your pics on my PC. Also did you delete your "diaper nation" or "diaper flag" image or what ever it was called? lastly before you say you are merely trolling, no one has the dedication to keep this up for years just for a joke

>>39895

But I want it nooooooooooow. *pouts*

>>39907

Awe, don't be sad, next portion's up

>>40051

Why? Then you'll just get fat unattractive neckbeards slobbering and spreading their disgusting fat, dumb diseases all over the place.

It would end up looking like it was made with Down syndrome retards.

>>39898

Shaney here. Inquiries duly noted, but from the way you word them, I don't think you know me very well at all. Just 5 minutes of lurking my DA page would answer every one of your questions.

I'm not as thin-skinned regarding criticism as you might think. I'll flag comments if their purpose is entirely inflammatory, sure, but they aren't critical to begin with, just antagonistic, and a general nuisance. Don't need crap like that shitting up my comment sections. I actually welcome constructive criticism in the descriptions of practically every single artwork I ever post to DA. So far as I've seen, the biggest pointers seem to be the following:

>shading

>proportions

>those freakishly huge anime eyes

>smoothness of linework

I've been trying my best to improve on all these, and from extensive practice, I seem to be getting better at some of these more than others. I genuinely do want to improve as an artist.

I don't personally delete my art unless I have a very good reason for it, such as disassociation with a certain person I made a request or art trade for, as an example. The only art of mine that's ever been deleted besides for that type of reason has been deleted by the draconian admins of DA as a result of mass-flagging. Speaking of which, I'm not sure which artwork you're referring to that involves the ABDL Pride flag, but both of those had to do with what I will definitely admit was a hardcore, radioactively autistic idea: an ABDL Revolution. The first time, it was merely a dream, one that stemmed from confused adolescent developmental misconceptions and a misguided oppression complex rooted mostly in feels over reals. The second time, it was… oh God… a fucking disaster. Just look in my journal history. I still regret it to this day.

The simplest answer is no, I'm not trolling. Though hopefully, you'd have probably guessed that by now.

Any further questions?

>>40055

>It would end up looking like it was made with Down syndrome retards.

as far as getting adult playgrounds built, you may be on to something there.

>>40078

If you want to improve your art you need to start using construction lines to build up complex objects (eg. faces) from very simple lines and circles.

These are a very good set of video tutorials which take you from drawing basic shaded cubes through to whole human heads. http://www.proko.com/library/

>>39930

Love it!!!!!!

>>40098

That is a LOT of tutorial videos… Not that I'm shying away from the opportunity, though. I very much appreciate the help, anon! Many thanks! :D

Can the drawfags start their own thread?

>>40160

You don't need to watch them all. Watch one or two, then get some paper and start practicing.

Also, even if you have a tablet I'd recommend sticking to pencil and paper for the initial sketches. You can scan in the ones you like (or use a camera) and digitally ink them later.

>>40182

One or two? That makes it a LOT easier. XD Thank God for that. Which ones would you suggest I watch specifically?

>>40195

What I mean is that you watch one or two videos, then spend a bit of time practicing the techniques described in those videos. Once you're comfortable, move on to some more advanced videos and repeat. The most important thing is to keep practicing, finding flaws in your own art, and learning how to correct them. The videos are just a resource to help with that.

Start with the "Drawing Basics" section. Anything from "The Basic Elements -- Shape, Value, Color, Edge" onwards is probably useful, so take your pick. If it seems too simple, move on to later videos.

I've only watched a small number of his videos myself, but I can recommend http://www.proko.com/how-to-draw-the-head-from-any-angle/ as very good.

>>40163

Yeah, sorry, we should probably move any further discussion over to another thread. This will be my last post here. If anyone wants to discuss art technique, they can make a new thread.

>>39930

More please?

>>40226

This

>>40226

Be patient

>>40342

Sorry, I've been displaced by forest fires, haven't had a a lot of writing space this week. The story is close to an ending. It might be up this weekend.

http://www.baby-pants.com/training_Pants.php

Tykables is also working on making these, too

>>40390

Sweet

>>40401

Don't know your size, but little girl style panties go up to size 165cm on Amazon. Just check children underwear and filter by size.

>>40511

Isn't that 65 inches? Sounds kinda big, even for adult underwear. What does the measurement come from? I can't imagine that would be waist size.

>>40513

Height obviously.

>>40390

Still no word?

>>40691

This

>>40699

No they are just underwear.

>>40804

you could wear pull ups under them and close your eyes?

>>40703

ending up now. I'll be working on a story around the idea in >>39645 but i make no promise on timeliness until autumn comes

>>41031

If you just want a big box of assorted random legos you could go on ebay or craigslist. People sell off tubs full of random lego pieces for dirt cheap.

Lego has been about sets for quite a while now. Like since the 90s i believe.

>>41031

>Why is this allowed?

expecting a company who's job it's to fleece kids out of money to have morals

>>41031

the "creator" line is what you want. usually animals, vehicles, and buildings, and many (all?) of the sets are 3-in-1 which is dope. i got a boat/helicopter/jet set and enjoyed the hell out of it

>>40070

yeah I think that most parents are actually OK with adults playing with their kids. As long as they can see them all the time and you genuinely are just innocently playing with them and all. I had an engineering project that involved building a playground, and as part of that I actually took pictures (with parents permission) of several groups of kids playing, and the parents didnt mind at all.

>>41086

You looked young and you had a good justification. >>40070 was already with a group of children.

I suspect things would be very different if a lone guy walked into a playground and just started playing with kids. Then again, my country is in full-blown pedo-hysteria mode these days.

>>41090

>my country is in full-blown pedo-hysteria mode these days.

Where is this?

>>41772

The UK, probably.

>>40890

Austin, your ello is disturbingly inactive. are you dead or just busy? any word on the next story?

>>42708

no, just a mundane case of writer's block, and I've fallen into a bit of a vortex with Sunny Paws. Maybe in the next couple weeks. Waiting to hear from heidegger about joining ararchive

>>37376 (OP)

Apparently Toys R Us is going out of business

>>43025

not sure about that but sad if true

>mfw I used to go to the babies r us section and enviously stare at the huge walls of diapers as a kid

>>43025

end of an era. though i heard they were just closing a good number of stores. Still, they're hurting hard if that's the case.

>>43360

>mfw same

>>43025

strong brand name; could definitely find a buyer. still lots of stores would close

>>43369

You're not wrong, but there's some funny irony there. The problem IS that they had a buyer.

Here's the backstory: Someone bought the company back in 2005, taking out a ludicrous amount of loans to do so, then putting toys r us itself up for collateral. In effect, all the loans were transferred to toys r us itself. The company has been coasting by, waiting for their loans to expire, in the meantime. Which is fine, since toys are OBVIOUSLY a timeless product and toys r us is OBVIOUSLY too big to fall.

>then smartphones became a thing

>then amazon became a thing

Toys R Us can't pay its debts.

>>40226

updating here because I miss this thread. I've moved to FTT (though i'll repost to Ello later) and writing Stinky Street (and Triage) as a continuous story. Currently focusing on a female AR right now, though it switches back and forth to Martin's and Elliot's after-the-fact stories. The thread is found here: https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/foxtalestimes/stinky-street-t803.html

as for an adult-kid talking point, we could share suggestions on mobile games. Puzzle games are fun for me regardless of mental state, Flow is a good one, though old-news I'm sure. Plus, there's plenty of rehashes of Rush Hour out there, for those that remember it. Does anyone have suggestions on kid-specific, or even just kid-friendly games?

>>41031

>minecraft themed legos.

That is the most redundant shit ever.

>>46598

>lego based on Lego Simulator 2011

just what we needed?

>>47033

ah that puts it into perspective. themed shit was sacred as a kid, cant say id buy it as an adult though

>>47033

Aw damn, rock raiders was the best. Do you remember insectoids?

>>47096

I believe it goes without saying, but Bionicle was not only the best lego line, but maybe the best toy line ever. What other toy line has its own creation story, lore, and universe? I know there's MLP, but that's all from the TV show. Bionicle had the story basis established from the start and had comics, video games, and web games that were actually really good to develop the story. Looking at modern LEGO is even worse when you remember that they once created a world with a story that's on par or better than those of the themed set they make.

I also want to recognize RoboRiders and Throwbots.

I watch old 90s baby shows and wet myself.

I don't know if I ever properly regress, I can't switch my brain off, I think about how they deliberately make the kids on Barney as diverse as possible, I think about what values the show taught kids back then and whether explains the state of millennials today etc.

>>47096

Well, there's a budding trend of Lego as an artitic medium. Nostalgia notwithstanding, the organic kits are rife with possibilities, with the individual pieces themselves. However, I'm no artist, and with nostalgia in mind, your assessment of the sweetspot is on point, yet time goes on.

>>47150

I think it more reflected the parenting zeitgeist, or at least how they viewed kids back then. I'd like to think television wasn't the only or even major influence on kids, but there's still some info to parse from it. Then again, I stopped watching before I started school, and I don't plan to start now. So who the fuck knows?

>>47154

>Ithink it more reflected the parenting zeitgeist, or at least how they viewed kids back then.

I've read some interesting stuff about how Barney really focussed on being happy all the time and didn't teach kids how to adequately deal with negative feelings.

But anyway mainly my point was just that I don't know how to switch off. I think about what messages Barney told kids who watched it, wonder if it affected me etc. sometimes I just compare how I would've thought as a child to what I'm thinking now when they have bits a kid is supposed to interact with. I don't know if that's normal or not, when I hear people talking about regressing or "little space" I don't think I achieve that

>>47158

oh god that is not surprising. I feel bad for any kids whose parents who thought a television show could do that for them.

I know what you mean about little space. What is regression, or rather, ageplaying like for you in your head? The most joy ive ever gotten is from nostalgia, but any regression always has active and conscious deliberateness to it.

>>47160

Well this one time I sat on the floor in a diaper and just for an instant I remembered being a toddler in nursery and I just want to recapture that feeling when I regress. But mostly as I said I just can't stop thinking like an adult, and if I let it go on too long it just brings me out of it. I'm okay if I try to ignore adult thoughts, I don't lose interest at least, but I still have the thoughts.

I had a short term boyfriend who I could regress around and that went quite well, I found myself talking more childishly without doing it deliberately. But I could only really play around maybe 4 to 7 because of his preferences so it's hard to compare it to wanting to go baby mode

>>47163

while i'm not full new-agey, i did get sucked into the vortex of spirituality years and years ago. meditation specifically helped me with regressive hypnosis, and though the files help, my mind is still going. Though one thing i learned springs to mind. I couldn't find the video so here's the summary

>listener: I know i can stop talking by closing my mouth and just not. but how do i stop my inner monologue

>guru: just like that. just say stop. and if the thoughts keep coming, like someone demanding your attention and not shutting up, just relax and listen, and let them pass.

its… not as practical as it felt, but sometimes, for a few seconds, i can silence my brain, and run only on intuition, but not for long. It takes practice, and it's just one tool to add to your repertoire for getting into baby mode. However, even getting into a little space at 4 to 7 is plenty rewarding for me, but it's nice when you can dip lower if only for a moment.

Any advice on how to buy baby toys online discreetly, without being tracked by places like Amazon?

>>48766

How would amazon ship without tracking you?

>>48775

That's my point, I don't want to use Amazon, or any big business that has a habit of storing info on you for use in advertisement etc.

>>48777

Order over TOR, maybe even tails. Failing that go with the Disconnect plugin. Don't use an email connected to your identity. Start a new one. Protonmail has an onion site. Use a prepaid credit card, paid for in cash. Have it shipped to a mail-drop, more legitimately called a private mail receiving company, under an alias. If they need a phone number, get a prepaid or disposable mobile. Don't buy a networked model. Just a simple talk-and-text.

>>48778

Well I'm hardly ordering something illegal, I was just looking for recommendations of places that aren't big enough or don't give a shit enough to sell and spread info on their customers. Like Amazon buys and sells info with it's partner companies.

>>48779

its about protecting your information, not contraband. doesn't matter if they don't sell your information if someone is selling theirs. and they may decide to sell your information one day. It depends on how optimistic you are about the future, or how paranoid you are of the present.

I tried watching Dora but I just couldn't get into it because it constantly commits the cardinal sin of insulting the viewer's intelligence. (Can you see the object that is quite obviously in front of me?)

There are many ways to teach kids things without talking down to them.

A shame too as Dora is really babyish with all it's designs and plots.

Plus they used to have awesome Dora and Diego designs with dinosaurs and stars on the previous incarnation of easy-ups (which had WAY stretchier sides that actually fit me too. REEEEEEEEEEEE)

Maybe it's actually just TOO babyish for me? :/

They also ruined the show with all the princess shit in the later seasons. Way to alienate half the audience for a show that was completely unisex, which I could respect.

On a better note, I just found Dragon Tales.

It's really funny and charming and it totally repects the intelligence of young minds.

I can see why it has such a sizable fanbase (even without all the porn because dragons)

Also, anyone know if The Lion Guard is good? The playsets look really cool.

Ps. WTF DID THEY DO TO BOB THE BUILDER

He now looks like someone you wouldn't trust within 5 miles of a school.

>>49511

Little Bear is cosy as fuck. I Adventure Time, Spongebob, and Pokemon are as grown up as I'll go. The first season of SU is pretty cosy too, even if the fanbase are SJW faggots

>>49511

I think condescension is inevitable with any baby show you have to understand they're literally only beginning to associate objects with words, half the kid watching Dora literally aren't able to realise that the name being said is the word to describe the object.

I find Barney is aimed for a really weird age demographic, because all of the kids are clearly no younger than about 7 but then in the show I think it's implied they're about 4, and many of the episodes are aimed at kids who aren't old enough for school yet. Like they're literally teaching kids to count to 10 in some episodes.

I like it though, I can vaguely remember watching Barney as a baby so watching ild 90s Barney is great.

I also watch UK shit like the Tweenies which is harder to find. That definitely seems to be aimed at maybe 4 to 5 year olds. It's odd to think about who i relate to on the show now I'm older, I never liked Milo because he was always clearly the black one (purple skin, weird hair), I think I liked Jake as a kid for whatever reason, but now I think being honest I;'m more like Bella though I'd rather be Fizz.

I don't watch kid shows in my native language for vocab acquisition, so its hard to insult my intelligence when I can only understand half of it, but Dora the Explorer managed to be one of the exceptions. Jake and the Neverland Pirates takes that faux interactivity from Dora, yet still delights me. Now, I've never seen it in English, but as far as I can tell it's a wonderful show.

Lion Guard is great, it has a similar aesthetic to the original movie, with animation modernized.

Here's a list of shows I like from least-understandable to fluent, which may help you decide how stupid you like your shows. There's others I'm forgetting. I find a lot of these terrible in english, but that's just me. Maybe you'll find something you like.

>Naruto

>Yokai Watch

>Pokemon

>Tabaluga

>Marsupilami

>Geronimo Stilton

>Ben 10

>Horrid Henry

>Pj Masks

>The Lion Guard

>Wir Kinder aus dem Moewenweg (don't think there's an english version yet, but it's okay)

>The Backyardigans

>Paw Patrol

>Jake and the Neverland Pirates

>Bob the Builder

>Bali (add "Planet Nemo" to aid search results)

>Max and Ruby (Most recently fluent)

>Mickey Mouse's Clubhouse (the aesthetic takes some getting used to)

>Harry's Bucket of Dinosaurs (Don't know the english title)

>Daniel Tiger's Neighbourhood

>Curious George (not the movie)

>Pocoyo (it's awful once you can understand)

>Sesame Street (Episodes are all over the god damn place, as far as vocab goes. Since it's on pampers, I'll guess dumbest)

>Dora the explorer (Don't know where it is on this list, stopped watching after 5 minutes)

>>49550

That's a pretty good idea watching shows not in your native language. I'm sure that makes it more fun at times. Do you watch all of these shows in a different language or just a few?

>Micky Mouse's Clubhouse

God those songs get so annoying after the 20th+ time of hearing them. Seems like it's only a few episodes that keep getting replayed over and over too.

"Hot dog hot dog hot diggity dog~"

I did kind of like the one where Donald becomes a genie and also the one where Goofy gets turned into a baby…for obvious reasons.

>>49556

List is based on German since that's my best second language, and I found a site for downloading most anything. I try to find what I can in other languages, but never so much luck. It makes them way easier to digest if you have trouble feeling little and don't get off on it. It was quite a disillusionment to catch a glimpse of Paw Patrol on the television and see just how fucking stupid it is in English, even though it's the fucking best in any other language. And Mickey Mouse, sometimes having the catchy tune to hum helps me feel little, but they get old quick, so I always have to watch an episode of something else afterwards.

>the one where Goofy gets turned into a baby…for obvious reasons.

That was a very special episode

>>49559

>I suppose that's not surprising since the intersection of "people learning Japanese", "people tech savvy enough to create a torrent", and "people who enjoy sitting through multiple episodes of Dora" must be pretty tiny.

Yeah, I've found that venn diagram has a very narrow overlap with any language. Knowing the written form of things like "download" and "television" in the target language helps search engines, but you need to look over a lot of bad apples. If you didn't see, I recommended the japanese channel of Treehouse Direct to an anon earlier in the thread, or perhaps it was you, for starters (doesn't have Dora, sadly). But I haven't had any luck for japanese outside of it. I love syllabaries but the glyph system fucks me up.

>>49566

youtube channel, that is

>>49566

>If you didn't see, I recommended the japanese channel of Treehouse Direct to an anon earlier in the thread

Yeah, I saw that thanks. It's a good find.

I guess I'll just have to keep searching for Japanese Dora, or maybe even find somewhere to buy it and create the torrent myself.

>>49550

I've always wanted a partner who's fluent in a language I know nothing about, so they could take me to a foreign country and have to handle all the interactions for me. They would order my food, talk about me without me understanding, and I'd have to stay close at all times because I wouldn't understand signs or be able to ask a stranger for help

>>49585

Saaaame. It would be great to have someone only talk to me in their language so I would have to try to learn their language through repeating things I hear, but I settled for the next best thing. Before I used it for language acquisition, I started watching foreign cartoons as a way to emulate toddler-level vocab. A compromise for the ages eras.

>>49572

Can't speak for your locale, but the cracker aisle is a good place to start. One recommendation I got from PBS (i think it was one of those segments after an arthur episode), was apple slices with peanut budder as a dip or even a spread on the apple. Other favourites of mine are fruit salad, mac and cheese, and bologna and cheese crackers

>>49572

Pudding and Jello cuips

>>49597

>>49667

No no no, specifically the shit that was linked. It was like peak soy. Have you ever seen that creepy YouTube channel "Queer Kids Stuff"? It felt like that. The girl in particular looked like she has a Tumblr. And the the cringey rap was the most pathetically American thing I have seen. It should not be shown to children, I am positive any child shown this short of shit at an early age will develop severe retardation and likely enjoy a soy diet

>>49671

You think she really has a tumblr? I'd follow or tweet at her if I had any of those social medias.

Are the people who cry "soyboy" the same people who think a secret government is putting symbols all over the place to brainwash the "sheep" masses?

>>49673

>>49671

I'm still not entirely sure what "soy" means in this context.

It's true that most kids TV, especially most modern stuff, is severely retarded and harmful to children's mental development. Then again, most parents are too stupid to give their kids a good enough preschool education to prevent them from being retarded. In a sense the problem isn't the TV itself - the problem is the shit the parents should be doing with their kids instead of sitting them in front of the idiot box.

>>49675

I think the thing about soy is that it's supposed to contain some kind of psuedoestrogen, and people use it as an insult in conjunction with stereotypes about low testosterone and social justice advocates. Because apparently there's a lot of cross over between low testosterone, social justice men and soy based diets.

Basically it's the new cuck.

>>49678

I take that kind of pseudoscience with a big pinch of salt. I've seen too much unscientific junk posted about testosterone (mainly by nofappers) already.

>>49671

Your post is a bit abstract. I have not seen that channel, nor does use of tumblr concern me, especially for an actor who doesn't do it on-screen on a kid's program. My generation and the following survived television shows on par with this. The adult fear for the next generation over a television program not targeted to adults has become too common, unfounded and kind of tedious. Is soy supposed to be jargon of those who have drank the kool-aid taken the redpill? What does it mean?

>>49675

processed soy apparently decreases testosterone, which is terrifying because diets are all or none when it comes to soy(?)

>>49678

Well that answers my earlier question, thanks

>>49679

fuck nofappers, i actually had my doctor recommend I continue masturbating because my blood turned into steroids. Though I do feel a lot better having cut masturbating from Horny Teenager to a few times a week, even with that unfortunate detour through nofap

How could I forget the tweenies Lmfao. When I was a kid I always wanted a episode where the girly-girl one (Fizz?) would wet herself…or better yet that she was still in nappies while the rest of her friends were potty trained. How could I forget that weird as show.

>>49728

>reporting on medical tests and scientific studies is invalid if i dislike the source reporting on them

You're gonna go far in life kid.

>>49733

both sources are literally clickbait entertainment sites. Read things from actual medical professionals if you want an informed opinion.

>>49733

To be fair, I can't count the number of clickbait articles I've seen which claim to report on scientific research but totally misunderstand everything about the original paper. If you want a quick summary of research, that's what the abstract of the paper is for.

You're legitimately retarded if you think the modern diet, water supply, chemical exposure, and lack of physical exertion isn't leading to low T levels in men and generally fucking up the endocrine system of every modern human to some extent. This science isn't even that hard to understand. The conetntion had with hormonal science isn't that it's hard it's that the outcomes are different for everybody. If one man starts drinking soy milk regularly he might start growing tits as has happened, while another man might not notice anything different. But when you're talking about entire populations who live in an environment that that can have a very negative outcome on a single person's hormones it's safe to say that in general it has a negative outcome for the population as a whole. When you're talking about children who are very sensitive to their environment and what they consume these things have a very strong impact on them during development. You see them as adults will all sorts of fucked up behavior and physical attributes because of this, obviously some more than others, hence "soyboy". You can compare the behavior and physical attributes of both men and women from just 50 years ago and see a dramatic difference, more so the farther back you go. Whether this truly is a negative thing, or done intentionally, or whatever, that's up for debate. But to deny that it is happening is just denying reality, it's stupid.

Honestly at this point as soon as I see someone start ranting about "low T" or "pussification of the west", I mentally categorize them next to the advocates of crystal healing therapy. The complete lack of anything resembling a scientific source isn't helping to change my mind.

>>49766

absolutely euphoric

>>49743

Yes, that is all very tedious, indeed

/pol/ took trap infographics seriously, and thus we have more idiots believing phytoestrogen is the same as estrogen.

>>49788

It doesn't have to be identical, phytoestrogens perform a similar function to estrogen, this is undeniable. The scientific debate is as to whether this affects testosterone production or not. You will see that sources arguing testosterone is not affected never claim that phytoestrogens don't behave like estrogens, soy products are literally recommended to menopausal women.

>>49788

>/pol/ took trap infographics seriously

I bet you're the same kind of moron who thinks going to the gym has no value. Only idiots who have never actually taken the time to work on their body think that their lifestyle doesn't effect them. Go fucking lift and then post pics of yourself in a nice thick diaper you dumb faggot.

>>49800

A similar function in plants, not humans. Phytoestrogens have no discernable effect of humans. We want traps to be vegan to make their seen taste better.

Repressed factors from /pol/ took this seriously and freaked out when they realized soy is used as a filler in everything because it's cheap. Much like corn syrup is a sweetener in everything because it's cheap.

>>49818

>Phytoestrogens have no discernable effect of humans.

just keep repeating it i'm sure it will come true soon enough

>>49821

<says the guy getting his biology education from tranny memes

>>49818

>Phytoestrogens have no discernable effect of humans

Just shut the fuck up. Here's a fucking published medical study:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4270274/

>Phytoestrogens are present in certain edible plants being most abundant in soy; they are structurally and functionally analogous to the estrogens. Phytoestrogens have been applied for compensation of hormone deficiency in the menopause.

Here's another:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3074428/

>Phytoestrogens are plant derived compounds found in a wide variety of foods, most notably soy. A litany of health benefits including a lowered risk of osteoporosis, heart disease, breast cancer, and menopausal symptoms, are frequently attributed to phytoestrogens but many are also considered endocrine disruptors, indicating that they have the potential to cause adverse health effects as well.

Never again in your life try to talk about topics you are uneducated on, thanks.

>>49826

Oh and it should also be noted, the health benefits listed in the 2nd quite, all of those diseases phytoestrogens would help reduce the risk of, are most commonly found in post menopausal women, ie low estrogen levels.

>>49825

>projection

>>49871

i guess because kids usually love animals and boys usually love big powerful things like tanks and airplanes. So it's like hitting those two aspects for them?

>>49826

>Never again in your life try to talk about topics you are uneducated on, thanks.

Maybe take your own advice.

>Here's a fucking published medical study:

Except, that's not a medical study at all. It's a "letter to the editor". There was no original research done. There wasn't even any peer-review.

>Here's another:

That's not a study either. That's a review. (Though that's not a bad thing.) But do try to actually understand what is written.

>many [phytoestrogens] are also considered endocrine disruptors, indicating that they have the potential to cause adverse health effects as well.

>considered

>potential

A whole lot of "maybe". Which is all you'll ever get. That, and "more research is necessary". Because phytoestrogens do behave very differently from estrogen and it is not at all clear which effects it might or might not have. Also, here's another quote form that review:

<For a typical consumer, alarm over soy products is likely unnecessary but so is the belief that a soy-rich diet will alleviate all ills.

>>49868

I never understood the popularity of Dinosaurs with little kids either. I think what >>49878 is right, it's the combination of animals and big things. Little kids stuff frequently has other big things like construction equipment. I don't recall having any dinosaur stuff, or really much printed stuff at all for that matter, except this pull up or training pant with trains on it that I liked wearing beyond the time I needed it.

haven't actually got anything yet, i've mostly just been watching painting tutorials so far. Gonna start off simple with the revive rx78-2 and the hg barbatos.

I know what you mean. I've got 2 really nice MG kits and I haven't even opened the boxes because i'm paranoid of ruining them. Especially my Ver.Ka Thunderbolt. The Zaku i was mostly experimenting with because i got it for like $35 which is less than i paid for my Unicorn.

Though I already have two MGs that are half done in their boxes for different reasons. One I tried to paint and got discouraged and the other is the fucking F91 Mg that is just a terrible kit that i got discouraged with. I like working with grunt kits because fucking them up usually just adds effect. But you do one of these immaculate gundams like teh Justice and i don't even know what to do with it.

Markers are a meme. The only ones you need are the colored metalic ones for eyes and the little green/pink pieces so you don't need to use stickers. Just get the grey/black panel liner. Not the marker panel liner, the actual Tamiya accent colors. It's super easy to use. The problem with the liner markers is that they bleed when you use top coat.
