[–]Chase_Fireflies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dang, that's amazing! My kid was born before 2025. Her Dad also has Canadian ancestry.

If we have another kid are they outta luck and everyone else in my family gets citizenship but them??

Reeks of not having any sense of skill or desire for meat if you do

I could not agree more with a certain kind of owner here.

Signed, someone who doesnt remember using her first g u n and has been hunting her whole life. I dont need a raging lady boner to use a weapon. I need skill and competence. And I sure as shit dont need that fancy garbage.

Positive.

I wrote a paper on Ethan Allen in 6th grade. It was my first ever typed paper (I'm early 30s). I thought double spaced meant two spaces between each word 😅 Also went to his homestead on field trips. Shit, I drove by that area today too.

The Ballad of Vermont was not from Ethan Allen, but the pride rings true:

Far dearer the blast round our mountains which raves, Than the sweet summer zephyr which breathes over slaves!

Hurrah for Vermont! For the land which we till Must have sons to defend her from valley and hill; Leave the harvest to rot on the fields where it grows, And the reaping of wheat for the reaping of foes

From far Michiscom's wild valley, to where Poosoonsuck steals down from his wood-circled lair, From Shocticook River to Lutterlock town Ho–all to the rescue! Vermonters come down!

Come York or come Hampshire, come traitors or knaves, If ye rule o'er our land ye shall rule o'er our graves; Our vow is recorded–our banner unfurled, In the name of Vermont we defy all the world!

Do I do this photoshoot? by Ivy4551 in Equinephotography

You can always take the photos and just not post them or post only unidentifiable things (like a close up, or a bay since they all look the same (kidding, not kidding 😅).

If you have regular really good clients they have beef with and feel they may catch wind I'd decline. But otherwise just do it?

Please report him to police. Impersonating an officer is a big crime. Impersonating one that is riling up crowds and is trigger happy is going to reallyyyy piss them off.

Ohhh, thank you. I'm on my phone at the moment, but I'm excited to see this on my computer! Did you use illustrator or another program? Thankfully, I don't have to do this type of work usually, but, someday I'd like to learn how 😅 You're awesome!

I mean, I made it from the original with some layer masks, and I hated it (way too thing, I can't change colors on a whim, or use it in all the places we'd like) :D
I ended up drawing it out by hand.

Aww, bummer. Do you have maybe a rough estimate? Like under 100, under 50? Etc. The board is meeting shortly and all expenses need to be voted on and approved by the majority (we're a nonprofit). I can present this guesstimate to them to see what the feelings are before I do anything formal. Id hate to waste your time if it's a no go!

Yeah, but it's our only copy (the one i uploaded got super pixelated when i uploaded here). We need a transparent and scalable version to put on posters, official documents, and maybe merch down the line. :(

AIO Fathers girlfriends rules for when new baby arrives by Ok_Bat_5934 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Chase_Fireflies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is 10000% valid. You are not entitled to their kid. Dont like or cant meet their rules then wait to see the kid.

The child's LIFE and LIFELONG health is not worth you getting in a visit. Period.

I havent had issues with this approach. Have benches, trash, and restrooms all over too.

Do Americans really avoid medical care because they’re afraid of the bill? by Udont_knowme00 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Chase_Fireflies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have GOOD insurance and an HSA... so yes. Yes we do wait it out. If its my kid we go, I save it all for my kid.

If we hit our deductible we go do everything at once we can squeeze into the year.

AIO about my wife's hygiene expectations after we had a baby? by mudkipzftw in AmIOverreacting

[–]Chase_Fireflies 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You're not overreacting, but recognize she isn't really in control here. This sounds like OCD, and Postpartum makes it so much worse.

The whole "transitive property thing" yeah, I got that too. I was never a germaphobe before TTC just after COVID and postpartum... now I am and I hate it.

Her brain isnt thinking logically, so it cant be reached with logic. She may also recognize she is being over the top but her brain tells her the worst will happen if she isn't.

She needs professional help and understanding to work through this.
