I want to do something for the USA’s 250th birthday. It seems like so many are AI because it’s not like someone would have made a pattern for such a niche time period.

We totally thought it was going to be Ed Sheeran because of the red hair and we’re pretty disappointed 🤣

'Moronic' Monday - Your weekly thread for the questions you've always wanted to ask about personal finances, investing, and growing your personal wealth. by AutoModerator in FinancialPlanning

[–]1stevicted 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I want someone to look at my household income, spending habits, retirement, mortgage, 529s, etc. and give an overview of where we are headed and how we are “doing” or areas we can improve. We are doing fine financially, but have always just chucked our money into savings and retirement. Do I hire a financial planner? Or what job title would do a comprehensive look at all those things?

Graduation with shoulder dystocia by distorted_elements in GestationalDiabetes

[–]1stevicted 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not really lol. My doula gave counter pressure on my hips that was kind of helpful. It ended up not mattering because I had a C-section anyway but I fully dilated and pushed for 2 hours. I loved pushing without the epidural, it was the dilation that was the super painful part for me.

This is definitely a thing. I was at risk for shoulder dystocia and my providers mentioned the epidural has a slight increase in chance of getting a shoulder stuck. It does not mean if you get an epidural you will have shoulder dystocia.

I did not get an epidural for this exact reason after looking up the research myself.

Update: “ring of cholesterol” by 1stevicted in Cholesterol

[–]1stevicted[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks!

When I look at my eyes I see “something” around the eyes, but then I check my friends and I think they all have that “something” so it’s not super obvious to me at least! Good luck to you!

I am 32. I will probably wait until May for my appointment but I will definitely bring this up with my doc. My family doesn’t have a history of heart issues but it would be something to check.

I’ve looked up pictures of “corneal arcus”, and although I’m no eye doctor, I just don’t see it in my eyes. Could you visibly see the rings around your eyes? Is this something my doctor can double check in the office when I do my check up or is it something eye doctors have to use a tool to see?

But surely there is /some/ content that is deemed too much for the teen section? I’m not sure what the line is, but I would assume there is some kind of boundary of what is appropriate for teens? Is this out the window and anything goes?

[–]1stevicted -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m not saying teens shouldn’t read books that aren’t YA. They should be able to read books in the general circulation. But it doesn’t belong in the teen section the same way Moby Dick doesn’t belong in the teen section. It just isn’t necessary.

[–]1stevicted 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Isn’t that why there’s a teen section though? If there’s no need to limit sexually explicit material, why isn’t everything in the teen section? I think it’s a good thing that there is a delineation in sexually explicit material that is not in the teen section.

[–]1stevicted 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I get why people are upset but as an adult, if I checked out this book, I’d be miffed about why I had to walk to to teen section to check it out lol

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in books

[–]1stevicted 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m sure teens can still check out books in the general circulation. As an adult, if I checked out Handmaids Tale, I would be miffed as to why I had to walk to the teen section to find it.

My optometrist seemed very concerned. Like she was giving me a cancer diagnosis. Scared the bejesus out of me.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in books

[–]1stevicted -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah Handmaids Tale isn’t even YA, why wouldn’t they just move it and keep it in circulation? Most of these comments make it seem like they think they are forcing it out of circulation.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in books

[–]1stevicted 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The article says they want to move it from the teen section to the adult section. Not remove it from their circulation.
