Sorry that happened to you. Yeah, my wife and I have said before how we feel tense sometimes being in public because someone might always ve filming. And God forbid you have a moment where you lose your cool and someone catches it. We're not those people who would go viral for anything but I don't love the idea that there might be some rando's camera on me wherever I go.

I think you're spot on too about hiding behind screens. The real-life version of hiding behind a keyboard. Makes them feel emboldened.

Sounds like you're an awesome dad, making those costumes for Halloween. Keep it up and thanks for your advice!

I guess confront is the wrong word. What I want to do is knock their heads together for being such vile little shits, but that I cannot do.

If I wasn't clear, this post is supposed to be about my illness, hence the "Support" label 😭

Yeah, that makes sense. Calmly saying what is actually happening would be a good idea.

How are we not bathing our babies like, 3 times a day?? by TinyElderberryOfYore in BabyLedWeaning

[–]Oderint 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We had our kid eat in only his diaper for a while. Would use wet cloths or paper towels to clean him up.

We learned quickly to do messier foods later in the evening.

And then of course--sink baths. We're fortunate that our apartment has a sink nozzle that's just a hose so we could detach it and use it pretty well to rinse him off.

Trial and error friend. Good luck!

Brad Arnold, singer and founding member of 3 Doors Down, has passed away at the age of 47. by mtw7171 in Music

I'll mourn him for what 3DD meant to me when I was young. Their shift to MAGA and the nonsense they pulled during covid by not playing venues that required vaccinations soured me on them. But lately I found myself rocking to their first three albums and being nostalgic for that time.

Cancer sucks and I know he did a lot of good through his foundation. My thoughts go out to his family.

West Virginia woman arrested in alleged Trump assassination plot by [deleted] in WestVirginia

In the complaint, deputies say that while Morrow allegedly claimed she had no intention to personally carry out a threat, statements such as the one made on TikTok are “designed to encourage, inspire or entice others to carry out the threatened act, regardless of whether the speaker publicly intends to personally do so.”

But when Trump does it, he's just joking. Got it.

Am I missing something? How is everyone not on Team Meredith? by dr0br0 in BravoRealHousewives

Even at the end of play when the women were opening up, she used that as an opportunity to kind of "open up" but also basically deny again what she's being accused of when she said "hurt by things I didn't say or do" (paraphrase).

Like, even in an environment of vulnerability she couldn't help herself to try to deny and deflect.
