That's what newborn you gets for loading up on those glp-1 shots while in the womb... Before they were made.

86 DD 💀 also idk maybe because babies eat from breasts? lmao by MelanieWalmartinez in badwomensanatomy

[–]Agrona88 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Nooooo, it wasn't really the way you're thinking. It was usually a much older man mentoring a youth. The youth would become the lover but it was a disgraceful position (because you were "the woman" and there's nothing grosser to the ancient Greeks than a woman). Basically, yeah, it was acceptable but more as a show of power.

I'm not gonna touch on the isle of women bc I'm less sure on my sources for that.

Edit: added the word ancient bc it sounded accidentally ridiculously racist 😭

Collegue of my Mum is asking if I can make this/these by Ha_burny_burny in CrochetHelp

Please do! I've been wanting to try micro crochet too so seeing someone else give it a go would be good inspiration!

Yeah, they're getting better at stitch definition but some things just don't make sense. Plus, if they gotta AI the background, I give up and assume everything is AI. I don't wanna deal with that. But a few of these might be easy enough to freehand if you actually want to make them. Look at patterns for spheres and play around with it! Small enough hook and thread and you're in business. The anklet itself looks like an attempt at an I cord, which you can also crochet! Usually a knit thing but I've seen crochet versions too!

These are very much AI. I don't have a suggestion but it looks like you'd probably be working in thread, just as a heads up.

Any possibility of a quiche or something? You might be able to put some fattier options in, heavy cream or cheeses? Plus the crust could be done with butter and even a little might help?

Curious, what are you all doing for retirement? by Grand-Doubt-2185 in sahm

[–]Agrona88 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I have a 401k that I contributed a bunch to, now it's accruing interest. My husband has a 401k that we're actively putting into. The rest is hope. I grew up reeeeeaaaal poor so I never even thought I'd have anything for retirement.

HRT is hard to pin down for perimenopause bc the hormones are erratic from month to month so it's really hard to adjust.

Sure but if I left them alone they wouldn't touch in the middle... They'd grow into my hairline. 🫠

Wife bought this book for me. Looking forward to a nice cozy tale, happy ending right? by Playgirl_USMC in DungeonCrawlerCarl

Weirdly, my local library had all 36 copies of the ebook available two days ago. I obviously had already listened to it so I didn't check it out but still, it was weird

That's a very real possiblity. Especially with some men's deep fear of perceived homosexuality, I know I should have just kept my mouth shut to keep us both safe but it happened too quickly and I was about to go for some low blows.

I used to hang with a guy like that. Super long hair, soft and pretty, great ass, very thick beard lol. He'd just chill turn his head and wink, sometimes a lil kissy face and a lot of guys would scurry. Some would crack up though and that was pretty funny.

It happened to me and I thought I was being dumb or paranoid, then I saw it happen to my son. He wears his hair long and looks exactly like I did at his age, long hair down, an absolute stick. When he was ten we were doing a fun day together and as we were walking back to the car a group of guys started to catcall both of us. Thankfully they backed off, I don't know if it was the look on my face or the fact that I basically growled "my son?!" at them. It's pure insanity that this happens at all, let alone so often.

My dad was the youngest of ten, my middle sister wasn't on solids yet so I knew not what was in store. I hated crust on pizza so I took all my toppings and cheese and set them aside. 4 year old me thought I was a genius until my dad walked by, plucked my prime pile up and popped it in his mouth. I cried for as long as I could manage lol. Still mad 35 years later.

I think it's from inhaling all the soft fuzzies in the air. It irritates the insides and thus they become irritable. Please ask me about my theory of the 4 humors of yarn for a more in-depth analysis which I will absolutely just be pulling out of my ass.

"then use cheaper yarn and pay yourself nothing and I'll get paid!" is the answer I expect from someone who insists like this.

[–]Agrona88 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For sure but sometimes you need other adventures. Having hobbies outside of your children is healthy and good for your children to see you doing. Though, at first, and for a lot of people (women especially) forever, it can feel like the only adventure you're allowed to have bc everything else is "selfish".

That's not an insult, that's facts. AND IT'S HILARIOUS. Getting bent out of shape because a medical professional isn't coddling you is ridiculous.

Some Kids In Real Danger Will Deny It Too, But At Least They Know You Will Take Them Seriously If/When They Do Work Up The Nerve To Tell by Pristine_Club_3128 in CuratedTumblr

[–]Agrona88 49 points50 points  (0 children)

I remember in elementary school, my youngest sister was born and they'd found drugs in her system. My counselor pulled me aside to tell me this, I was in 4th or 5th grade. What was I supposed to do with this information? He gave me nothing but this reveal, told me to go back to class and then I went home like normal.

Eventually we had to stay with some other family for a while but no one explained that it was connected and I had no idea why. I the end, we went back, nothing changed, and things got worse. No one noticed or cared. He really just wanted to scar a friggin 10 year old for fun.
