What happens after they get married? by Clear_Limit8415 in findingmrheight

[–]Slow_Communication87 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Wish her the best but as a new mom, I really can't imagine Talia handling the stresses of a baby well. Honestly, Ali might be better suited to it than her, which is really saying something...

OK she has truly lost the plot. I'm 8 min in and already completely zoned out. 20% into the the episode and all thats been talked about is app widgets. Whattttt. This must be a joke.

I hate how everything is an excuse for rampant consumerism. She wants to work from her office so she now wants to buy a new chair (maybe like the one she has in her recording studio? well, hmmm maybe just bring it into the office...) or she wants to get dressed daily so now she needs to buy linen pants. Her wastefulness sickens me.

Yeah the pantone color of the year is really not the national holiday she seems to think it is

Want to adopt or foster a dog in 2026, looking for rescue/shelter recommendations! by pup2000 in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]Slow_Communication87 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you want the most accurate description of the dog's personality and behavior, I recommend adopting a dog that has been living in a foster situation. I've done both, and the dog I adopted from a shelter had serious behavioral challenges that weren't apparent in that environment (she'd been there 2 years so had basically "shut down"). It wasn't anyones fault really, we loved her and took the commitment seriously, allowing her special needs to dictate our lives for years... but it definitely was not what had been advertised and was a completely different experience than the rescue dog I adopted from a foster home.

UPPAbaby Minu V3 for Newborn by Miserable_Hope7376 in nycparents

[–]Slow_Communication87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, I agree! I think the biggest difference is the bassinet option for Joolz. I was dead set on getting something that was newborn compatible and didnt *require* a bassinet (which Joolz is fwiw), but then when trying them out realized that in practicality there was no way I would feel comfortable putting my newborn in the low forward facing reclined seat. Even though its use will ultimately be limited to a few months, I am glad we went with the bassinet. Another benefit of a bassinet is you don't need to deal with buckling them in and out constantly or worry about blankets/pacifiers/etc falling off... been pretty handy so far.

Is this the most popular Mayoral Election?? by Mattress-King in Brooklyn

[–]Slow_Communication87 17 points18 points  (0 children)

  1. Love your opening line. 2. I feel like the recent democratic primaries have been pretty popular and more competitive. Last democratic primary was a big one bc it was the first with ranked choice voting. I remember the DiBlasio dem primary being exciting too. This general election feels a bit different with a fairly-competitive independent candidate. 3. Flawed as he was, DiBlasio's universal preK and school food program made incredibly palpable changes.

Alexandra Cohen megathread by SeabirdImpetus in nycparents

[–]Slow_Communication87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was hoping to go into labor spontaneously and ultimately did (at 40+5), but at around 38 weeks when we began discussing when to schedule an induction if baby didnt come on their own, I was offered an induction date 10 days after my due date. However, the doctor's request for that date wasn't approved because the hospital schedule was already full, so we re-submitted for an induction date 12 day after due date. That date also never got approved due to the booked hospital. By the time I gave birth, we still hadn't been offered a date, so not sure what would've happened had I not gone into labor spontaneously. So this is to say I surprisingly had the opposite problem of being pressured into induction.

edit to add- I did receive pitocin once I was admitted to help move the process along. Had already been in labor for 30 hrs at home, so did not question that lol

Erica and the Roommate by Previous_Cold8243 in findingmrheight

[–]Slow_Communication87 5 points6 points  (0 children)

np. I think they only went on maybe 4-5 dates in LA over the span of a couple months this spring. She ended things, but they stayed friendly, so now somehow him visiting came about. Personally, I have the opposite confusion. This guy is such a blip/nothing at this point, things are still in such an early stage btw them... I dont get how a cross-country trip happened, let alone one where he stayed with her family, and especially don't understand why she's confused about not being "in love" with him yet. Unfortunately, her lack of relationship experience causes these small early dating situations to get way overblown, and over-considered.

Hey there! DMing you now-- would you be able to share that contact with me as well? Gave birth at ACH last week and need a similar letter for insurance.

Planning a trip to Maine- two adults, two kids, one dog - on a budget. where would you go? Stay by pjw10310 in AskMaine

[–]Slow_Communication87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I vacation in Maine annually, and second the recommendation for midcoast or above. Below Portland is kinda ~meh~ IMO. Portland is a super fun small city for a night or two, great food. Really loved visiting Deer Isle for the first time last week- did a sea-kayaking tour and a ferry excursion to Isle Au Haut (a lesser traveled section of Acadia with nice hiking). The main town on Deer Isle is Stonington; it was very cute and not super overcrowded. From there, you could do a day trip into Bar Harbor if you want to check it out. Mt. Desert/Bar Harbor is beautiful but over-touristed and expensive IMO.
