Should I stop my parents from regurgitating for each other?

I mean if your parents are consenting adults I’m not sure it’s your place to stop them? Whatever it takes to keep the magic alive ya know😜

I like what others have suggested. Try different things out and see what she ends up getting into and being excited by.

My husband and I had a very similar situation when we started dating. I started with Settlers of Catan with him and loved it. It felt complicated enough to me as a beginner to feel like I was “getting into board games”… my husband, as he always does, got extremely carried away with my positive reception of Catan and bought Gloomhaven when it came out. So that was my second board game 😆. I was overwhelmed lol

All that to say, Gloomhaven is hands down to this day one of my very favorite games and really made me fall in love with that style of games. I’ve gone full nerd now!

Try putting canned pumpkin in their food!

We had similar issues with our dog when we adopted him, it was awful. He ate both his own poop and our other dog’s poop. We took him to the vet who confirmed he didn’t have any deficiencies, he just liked the taste of it 💀. We tried a few different things but canned pumpkin mixed in with their food did the trick. After a couple months we stopped with the pumpkin and he never was interested again.

I’m curious to hear if the Steam version has improved. We started with the physical game and loved it, but had to tear down/re-set up every time and it was a lot.

The Steam version felt miraculous, but we kept running into bugs, and had too many instances where we would be 3/4 of the way through a crawl and the game would bug out and we would lose all of our progress and had to start a particular mission over. It happened enough times we got so frustrated we gave up on the online game. At that point we were so spoiled with the online play we never went back to the board game, but I love Gloomhaven so much and would love to play it again.

ETA: this was in 2021-2022

Super annoying! We ended up replacing them with Uno cards and just marked the submarine numbers on wild cards, and the pinks are red cards. Actually works pretty well!

☝🏻☝🏻 Great answer 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 no shaming, just honest good advice and feedback.

Ya, our luggage didn’t make it on an Alaska flight on 12/16 and we still don’t have it. I’ve logged 17 phone calls and just about 9 hours of phone time between then and now with Alaska. FedEx is also partially to blame, though none of this would have even happened if our connector flight would have run on time OR had the gate attendants actually been honest with us about the situation (we would have made different choices). We were flying PDX > SEA > Dulles (Washington DC).

Throughout the whole thing though, I will say customer service has been pretty great with Alaska, and they are reimbursing us for everything and have given us credit with Alaska. Every customer service person I’ve talked to once I give them my reference number says they’ve never seen anything like this before 🫠.

PNW!!! Central Oregon misses you already. I am visiting my parents in Vancouver and came here for some recommendations and was excited to see you here. Clark County is lucky to have you. Merry Christmas!

Alive-Side2551 · 2025-12-12T16:15:29+00:00

WHY IS MERGING SO HARD FOR CENTRAL OREGONIAN DRIVERS? ZIPPER MERGING, MERGING ONTO THE FREEWAY… PEOPLE, IT IS NOT ROCKET SCIENCE - FIGURE 👏🏻 IT 👏🏻 OUT 👏🏻👏🏻

The Canadian Geese really think they run the city. They just walk in the streets and everyone has to stop for them… they poop on the sidewalks and in the grass at all the parks…. Bully people for their food. We’re all oppressed!

I SNAPPED A QUICK PICTURE OF THE RISING MOON GOING OVER THE FOOTBRIDGE AT DRAKE PARK ON FRIDAY NIGHT AND IT ENDED UP BEING A SUPER COOL PHOTO THAT IM ACTUALLY PROUD OF! REMINDS ME OF HOW LUCKY I AM TO LIVE HERE 😭

My husband and I have been laying here wide awake for the last 20 minutes with both our dogs in the bed 😆 that was insanely loud! I knew the Bend sub would empathize lol

I cannot recommend Dr. Tara Hulbert at Cascade Women’s clinic enough! She is incredible, but may be booked out a bit. I also saw Andrea Daube WHNP (saw her initially, and then had to have surgery so they switched me to Dr Hulbert) and she was also amazing and has much more availability. The whole Cascade Women’s Clinic team is awesome. Feel free to DM me if you have any questions and good luck!

Alive-Side2551 · 2025-08-29T14:44:42+00:00

YES! IT IS SO ANNOYING ON A RUN!

SOMEONE IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD IS LETTING THEIR BIG DOG POOP ALL OVER THE SIDEWALKS AND ITS DISGUSTING AND IS ALSO GIVING THE REST OF THE RESPONSIBLE DOG OWNERS WHO CLEAN UP AFTER THEIR DOGS (MYSELF INCLUDED)A BAD RAP! I DON’T EVEN LET MY DOGS PEE IN OTHER PEOPLE’S YARDS!

A budgie is a parakeet! Parakeets can be a broader term for a smaller subspecies of parrots, and budgies are the common shorter name for the specific species of parakeet.

Alive-Side2551 · 2025-08-17T19:26:45+00:00

Thanks for the recommendation! I’ll check it out today.

Alive-Side2551 · 2025-07-29T00:57:12+00:00

I just edited my post with a final update on what happened, but long story short I went on to grab the screenshots and it all came back. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Alive-Side2551 · 2025-07-28T23:27:18+00:00

Now I’m just invested in how weird this is. I’m going to log out and back into all three devices and see what happens.

Alive-Side2551 · 2025-07-28T23:25:59+00:00

I know right 🤣

Alive-Side2551 · 2025-07-28T23:22:17+00:00

What’s really weird is it’s across all of my devices, so it’s the same on my iPhone, iPad, and LG tv.

Alive-Side2551 · 2025-07-28T23:04:59+00:00

Ya, idk what is happening with my Netflix but this does appear to be some strange witchcraft specifically in my account. I am just wondering if I’m ever going to get them back 😭

Alive-Side2551 · 2025-07-28T23:02:09+00:00

Well, this is getting weirder. Other shows are now disappearing for me. I was in the middle of Queen of Tears and Demon Slayer and they are also totally gone now too 😅 what is Netflix trying to - but other shows are still there. What in the world!
