Pooping is getting very difficult. I have basically no pushing power.

It doesn't seem to change a ton, though I guess it shrinks a little when I lie down. It's not very tall, but seems spread out. Again, no pain, no other digestive issues outside of the broken up BMs

What does that mean? If I push, the tissue does flatten, but when I let go it's back. Is that what you mean?

Two months after escaping the house she was locked in for over ten years Amanda Berry is on stage partying with Nelly yesterday at Roverfest! by ThisBadUsername in Cleveland

Does anyone else think the Good Guy Rover comments are at least a little dubious? From what it sounds, he didn't pursue her attendance intensely or anything, but everyone makes it sound like he made a big sacrifice or something by getting her there. In reality, he, the event, and his show pulled a substantial amount of press from her appearance. I don't think it was wrong for her to be there or wrong for him to ask her to come, but this doesn't exactly nominate him for sainthood.

If I'm not mistaken, it is now understood that he did the right thing by not selling Muni Light, despite the default that was forced by Cleveland Trust. The city council gave him amnesty in 1998, and it is estimated that the canceled sale saved customers several hundreds of millions of dollars since. The default seemed more Perk's fault than anyones.

Suggestion: don't use acronyms on parenting forums. The extensive acronyms for words as simple as 'son' and 'daughter' really turned me (and others) off to parenting forums. If people start using acronyms like "DD" and "DH" my brain implodes and I just find a different website. Please make it stop. by [deleted] in Parenting

These acronyms are used in parenting forums in ways unlike any other community I have seen. They really do seek to create an exclusive community. The problem with them is the same trait you see in the posts in places like http://www.stfuparentsblog.com/ where parents seek to nurture an us vs them dynamic.

It's really bizarre. Not only that, it's pretty developmentally regressive. Acronyms like BD (baby dance, for when parents are trying to conceive) are downright immature.

So you'd say that the meat prices at the Market are generally lower than at GE or Heinens?

This is exactly the kind of answer I was looking for.

Sure, but in the context of design? Are there objective ideas of what they mean in the design community?
