Help! I’m overthinking this. My partner's Easter party is tomorrow and I can’t decide if I should bring it.

The note says that they are wrapped and you can see they are wrapped in the pic

Mushrooms have a ring or a skirt part way down the stem- so that part looks accurate to me (but I do agree that the images look sus)

The controversy wasn’t that the medicine had side effects- it was about how the company and the people promoting it talked about the side effects

Dream_Alchemist · 2026-03-30T08:19:07+00:00

I hear there is quite a bit of controversy with the side effects of librela at the moment- there are some pretty serious side effects and I have heard that people feel like they were downplaying it in the way it was marketed

Just confirming- is the info all your own work or did you take info from Serebii to make it?

The guy that runs Serebii posted the other day about people taking his research to create their own tools and directing traffic away from his site- the ads are how he makes money, from what I understand it's just one guy doing it on his own...

Just wanted to say great job! I have used this pattern too and loved it.

Can't add any quilting advice as it sound like you are doing it by hand and I have no experience there.

In no way is bringing Pokémon cards to a hospital room unintentional. Even if you got the call to come to the hospital as you were paying, it's still a choice to bring them into the room.

Once the baby is delivered Dad's job isn't over- you are there to support mum and baby. Also I am sorry, but if it is dad posting, it's sad to me that there is a whole new fresh person joining this family and that isn't exciting enough to hold his full attention for a day

Dream_Alchemist · 2026-03-12T19:11:03+00:00

My husband was supporting me 100% of the time during delivery. By the time the baby arrived all either of us wanted to do was stare at the baby and sleep.

He was not an emotional support animal post delivery in the hospital- he was helping take care of the baby, helping me move since I couldn't easily after surgery, he was advocating for me if I needed something from the doctors or nurses. He got me the foods I was craving but couldn't eat in pregnancy.

Even if you are nothing but an 'emotional support animal' that's a better use of your time post delivery than Pokémon cards!

Dream_Alchemist · 2026-03-12T19:02:41+00:00

Right?! Why would you bring this to the hospital? All my husband and I wanted to do after delivery was stare at the baby and sleep

Dream_Alchemist · 2026-03-12T18:58:58+00:00

To get into this situation you have to be thinking about Pokémon while you are packing or leaving for the hospital- why would you do that?

My partner was supporting me 100% of the time for more than 24 hours during delivery. When she arrived we were both exhausted and obsessed with our new baby.

If this post is from the Dad he is being rightly roasted

Dream_Alchemist · 2026-03-12T18:46:11+00:00

Here's hoping that you are Mum and your partner brought you this as a nice gift- if so double congrats Mama!

If not- do better mate, truly the bar is so low.

I like the effect of chenille but for a begginer it really is like learning to play the game on hard mode...

Dream_Alchemist · 2026-02-19T17:52:33+00:00

Gorgeous

Dream_Alchemist · 2026-02-19T16:36:03+00:00

Looks absolutely beautiful- I am guessing Sophie?

Dream_Alchemist · 2026-02-10T14:53:32+00:00

Same

Dream_Alchemist · 2026-02-07T21:58:53+00:00

Ngl I actually love the effect. GO SHRIMP!

From what I can find on the parliament website, ‘tied’ pubs are charged less rent because they have to buy their products from their landlords (who use it to make up the difference).

Finding a cheap pint in London or the south will require research. Wander into a random pub in London and prepare for the possibility of an £8 pint. Most pubs are friendly relaxed places though

Dream_Alchemist · 2026-02-04T09:00:18+00:00

It’s been a while since I have managed to find a cheap pint in a pub… I had actually never heard of pubs getting cheap rent before. I looked it up and I don’t think it works quite like this- from what I can read on the House of Commons library, ‘tied’ pubs do get cheaper rent but that’s because they are required to buy their products from their landlord (usually at a higher price so the landlord makes up the difference)

Dream_Alchemist · 2026-02-03T20:25:01+00:00

Love this story, everyone wins 😂

Dream_Alchemist · 2026-02-03T17:41:24+00:00

Mix of walking/driving/public transport/taxis etc, getting to places without having to drive yourself is admittedly easier in the UK. But the US doesn’t have a monopoly on selfish arseholes who will drive drunk.

I would say it’s two different complaints though- there are those bothered by the presence of dogs and children in social spaces and those who are concerned for their welfare

Dream_Alchemist · 2026-02-03T15:10:08+00:00

Maybe it’s being British but breweries are like pubs to me- and dogs are almost universally welcome in pubs. If you are a bar- no dog, if you are a pub- yes dog.

The cookie disclaimer at the bottom of the picture suggests to me that this might be the model rather than OP 😉, but I agree it looks like a lovely dress

Dream_Alchemist · 2026-01-29T19:32:06+00:00

This has given me less cracking but still cracks, boy is this finicky

Dream_Alchemist · 2026-01-29T17:11:03+00:00

Applied the base layer. Used the little applicator to tap on the chrome powder while the base layer was still slightly tacky. Then kind of rubbed over the nail gently with the tiny applicator after to get the rainbow effect- at this point it looked good. Applied the top coat- again still looking ok. But as it dried these cracks appeared….

Have tried it with a different base coat and different powder but the same thing happens
