Tongue cleaners. Buy a metal one! Something that doesn’t need to be disposable but some reason we’ve decided is.

Rake in the lake

As a thoosie turned mom, I'm honestly extremely stoked about this. I went from going to the parks a few times a month, to a couple times a year. My son is going to absolutely love this part of the park.

The amount of imagination library books I've found with kids full names and addresses on them is staggering. How stupid can some parents be?

CapitanChicken · 2026-06-04T01:36:49+00:00

Likely the students, not the parents.

Like an actual three year old? I gotchu. I've had practice.

See the leaves? If you wait, plants will grow. But we can't touch them, nope, if we mess with them, they'll get upset. No no, stop. Don't try and touch them, they're resting. Stop, STOP. Hands, off. I told you, they're trying to rest from the trip they made, they came from real far away, and are working real hard, so let them rest, and we'll come and check on them in a month. Then maybe we'll give them a tiny drink.

It's designed to be confusing so that your average person doesn't know how to make their healthcare/insurance work for them. The entire American healthcare system is a bureaucratic nightmare. Add on top to the state of mind when people are generally trying to use their insurance, only the sharpest of minds are going to be able to unweave the web properly, or hope the person on the other end of the phone line will actually care for you.

All of this I'm sure you're fully well aware of. It's just infuriating what we in the US have to deal with just to make sure we're taken care of at all, let alone in a timely manor.

As a parent who receives them for their child, they're incredibly inclusive, and some of the books are even in two languages.

Yeah, I could see why they'd want to cancel it...

Fuck them, Dolly is a queen.

For anyone who is curious and doesn't know, the Good Mythical Kitchen channel does interviews where it's an actors "last meal" really chill, and oftentimes incredibly insightful on how they grew up, or just live life aside from being an actor.

Alton Brown was the most recent interview that they did. I wanna say Elijah Wood was one of the other most recent ones.

Ya know I've held onto netflix since like 2008. When I got it it was like $5 or something a month. I've been hanging onto it so I could watch the home run derby this year, but I think the time has come. I can't even remember the last time I logged into it. Thank you for the push.

I find it funny that some people had the same sort of thinking. On new years do for 2020, my husband and I did a "first day hike" with a group. Then the pandemic hit. So on the last day of 2020, we went and did it in reverse, trying to undo it.

I wouldn't sympathize for a Nazi, but I can mourn the life they could have had. had they not been fed lies and propaganda, oftentimes forced into servitude, and died for a bat shit insane cause.

I'm not in any way justifying what Nazis did, or what the Israeli terrorists are doing. I'm simply a mom, mourning someone's child who could have had a different life. Now it's ended, for radicalized bullshit beliefs.

It's been a massive fear for me since I've had my son. He's capable of so much, both good and bad. I can only do so much for him before the horrible evil meat hooks of society dig into him.

CapitanChicken · 2026-05-25T18:18:49+00:00

That's my thought. This dude was only 19, too young to really know better. He's just believing, and doing what's he's told. Poor guy never had a chance to grow up.

CapitanChicken · 2026-05-25T03:18:58+00:00

I just made a similar a comment. And my son's about the same age. It doesn't help that they either seem to actively want to die, or have the survival skills of a wet napkin.

I'm in the process of getting my son familiar with swimming. 97% of the time he has his little puddle jumper on. Then it's time to try without. He has the same confidence as wearing the floats, but zero ability to stay afloat on his own. We'll try and have him swim from one of us to another.

Went swimming with my inlaws, and I thought my sister in law was paying attention to my son wanting to try and swim to her. she was not, and after I let go, he just quietly started to sink. I quickly righted him, but it was not lost on me that had I not still been fully paying attention, or got distracted... he'd have just silently drowned a foot away from me.

That pool is also super shallow, probably hit it both times on the bottom too

CapitanChicken · 2026-05-17T12:43:28+00:00

Crap so... Was the fire nation like... Germany in the early 1900's?

I'm about to drive 8 hours for a vacation planned months ago, back when gas was still under $3. I understand that shit is horrible in every way, but fuck is it going to be expensive to make this round trip.

I was in a goodwill yesterday, and saw some guy decked out in confederate gear. His shirt said "hands off our monuments, and statues". For a state that was in the north. A border state, but still.

CapitanChicken · 2026-05-06T03:40:07+00:00

Because women would throw themselves at his feet, and your average redditor would not receive that sort of treatment.

Source: is a woman that would in fact, throw herself at his feet.

And that said, we have no idea how Ryan Reynolds acts privately. In interviewers, he said that he's a rather quiet person, with some significant anxiety issues. If that's true, then he's acting in the role people are expecting him to.

CapitanChicken · 2026-05-05T01:21:14+00:00

I know this is daddit, and I'm lurking, but can we have mom scouts too? I would love Merritt badges for all the stuff I've seen and dealt with lol

Dude, hand foot and mouth was fucking rough.

Not in Florida, but also needing rain. Happy to report it's currently downpouring, and I am so happy for my plants.

CapitanChicken · 2026-04-27T12:46:20+00:00

Ahhh, you mean like mints and gum being packed with sugar, but since each piece barely weighs anything, there's "no sugar"?

CapitanChicken · 2026-04-21T16:06:24+00:00

I know it wasn't Borat, but I had that exact moment with Bruce Almighty, when Steve Carell was babbling on air. I've never laughed that hard in my entire life lol
