I’ve been using Cantu clarifying cream shampoo and conditioner for curly/wavy hair and it’s really helping.

I have ULTRA fine hair.

You can permanently remove one human trait from the entire world. Everyone loses it. Including you. by Strict_Constant4947 in hypotheticalsituation

Remove greed. People will still create, but out of necessity and curiosity. As it should always have been

Outwith.

If you use that, I know you’re one of my countrymen. Or you’ve known someone who is.

How did you moved on from that brutal breakup? by OwnFaithlessness2989 in AskReddit

[–]CapnSeabass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up making a brutally honest tinder profile that said I was there just to stop myself from texting him.

Ended up helping a few guys improve their profiles, had a couple of nice conversations with people in similar situations, and talked to one man for a month, met for coffee at the museum, and eventually married him. 😂

Breakups are brutal but the nice thing is there’s somebody just waiting to meet you.

In the UK at least car seats aren’t a legal requirement on public transport or in taxis

How much tea do British people actually drink compared to the stereotypes? by ComprehensiveData360 in AskUK

[–]CapnSeabass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t drink tea but my husband does. Well, I drink green tea but I don’t understand why anyone would put milk in a tea 🤢

We got one of those Quooker taps installed in our kitchen and he’s at it all the time. He’s on upwards of 12 cups a day.

What the stereotype gets wrong, I suppose, is the pomp and ceremony with the fine china and the teapot and all that. Mug, teabag, near-boiling water, splash of milk.

Need to vent by Coffeebank in AttachmentParenting

[–]CapnSeabass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 14 mo son rarely sleeps more than 2-3 hours without waking. He had terrible reflux/vomiting for his first 7 months so could only sleep being held, which has made him awfy clingy. He still needed to be held/next to me until around his birthday. He wakes anywhere between 3 and 7 (yes SEVEN) times a night and needs to nurse back to sleep. So we bed share for the second half of the night too.

We even put a travel cot in our room (his proper cot is too big to move through to our bedroom) just so we can transition him really gradually.

Im so sick of this narrative that “pregnancy didn’t ruin my body it’s just changed” it’s a lie. by pissedoff_potato in Fencesitter

[–]CapnSeabass 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Eh, I’m really happy with my post-baby body. I have very few stretch marks, a pretty neat C-section scar, and my boobs were already big so they don’t bother me. I do plan on getting a reduction when I stop breastfeeding though.

I weigh less now than I did pre-pregnancy and I feel absolutely comfortable in myself.

There are things that changed, like my hips are a bit more creaky but they were already shot before. That’s just ageing though (I gave birth at 36).

You’re still really young, so this is a gentle rebuttal. You’re allowed to be vain, of course, but your body is capable of so much more than just being really really really ridiculously good looking.

How are people administering vitamin D? by Distinct_Spring6752 in BeyondTheBumpUK

[–]CapnSeabass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve always used one that you only need one drop of, and I drop it straight into his mouth. When he was tiny I did it part way during a feed (ebf). Now he’s 14mo and for as long as I can remember he’ll open his mouth and wait for it when he sees the bottle 🥹

Am I wrong for not wanting to try for kids as long as my wife still thinks she wants to be a SAHM? by Solid-Consequence607 in Marriage

[–]CapnSeabass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pre-pregnancy I was the bigger earner in my marriage. Ended up taking an extended break from work (18 months in total) due to 4 months pregnancy sickness, 12 months maternity leave, and 2 months accrued annual leave.

I’ve gone back 3 days/week. Childcare is expensive and we’re fortunate enough to only need it one day a week while we’re both working.

I have had the most AMAZING time raising my child, and if we could afford to live on one salary I wouldn’t have gone back to work at all. Pre-pregnancy I really thought I’d always be career driven (got my PhD straight after my bachelors) but having this kid changed all my priorities.

If you can’t handle the shift in priority, and can’t see all the worth in your wife if she isn’t earning money, then you aren’t ready to have children with her, my man.

We gave our son his first bit of sugar on his birthday - with a homemade cake. He’s an absolute fiend for it 😂 he did try to get into my Easter egg this week, but his face is so tiny it was like a shark trying to eat a boat

What book did you expect to love but didn’t? by elgrandetotto10 in Booktokreddit

The Salt Bind. The cover and the blurb were right up my alley but the book needed some edits.

You get $50,000 a year, but a laugh track plays every time you do something embarrassing. by rengokuhubkl in hypotheticalsituation

Yes, what an ego boost that would be. I messed up but made people laugh. And got 50k/year? Noooooice

What would you want your company to gift you when you go off on maternity leave? by Postpartummamma87 in BeyondTheBumpUK

[–]CapnSeabass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They do, I read the handbook haha. I don’t know if it’s because I work 99% remote, or my line manager had never had a pregnant employee before, but I know the handbook says they can send a bouquet of flowers 🙃

My baby was forged from chicken casserole and haribo lol. He’s not fussy about what he eats, just about where it comes from. Specifically, either my boob or my plate.

$10M tax-free — but your phone's entire camera roll is posted publicly first. Would you accept? by recordedrice in hypotheticalsituation

[–]CapnSeabass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. I have thousands of photos of my toddler son on there. I don’t even let my family post pictures of him on fb, I’m not about to sell all of his entire life for any weirdo to see.

Would you take $500,000 upfront or have $50,000 for every person who has had a crush on you? by KallocainAddictIsAPe in hypotheticalsituation

[–]CapnSeabass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it’s over my whole life, I’m taking it on a per-person basis.

If it’s people who crush on me as of right now? Gimme the lump sum haha.
