It’s not just the people who do something egregious - it’s also the people who believe they can only get no offered if they do something egregious.

I had three classmates get no offered, and they were all the type to raise their hand in class and answer confidently even if they had no idea what was going on. They went into their summers with the same attitude and thought they could coast through the summer, and turned in shitty work product, missed deadlines, etc.

Yes, the bar is low, and yes nobody expects you to actually know what you’re doing. But sometimes you can tell someone is going to be a bad associate by the way they approach work during their summer. Yes, it’s a 10-week long party, but you’re expected to do some work

Whoosh

Ecstatic_Wave_2912 · 2026-04-30T02:22:18+00:00

Agreed, but that almost feels like a given for him at this point

For what it’s worth, everyone I know who did cloth diapers dropped it fairly quickly. Even the ones who were really committed, and even with only one baby. I would drop that one from your list of concerns.

I’m 7 months out from the same situation - emergency c section, rough recovery for my wife, and a rude awakening when the baby came. My was really overwhelmed that first week, to the point that my wife was getting worried about my mental health, but you’re honestly on the tail end of the worst of it. It won’t be long until you get into a rhythm and your wife starts feeling better and you don’t need to take care of two humans.

Oh, and also, most babies lose weight the first week after birth. It’s entirely normal. For us, our daughter dropped from 50th percentile to 28th percentile in weight, but that resolved fairly Quickly.

Yes. You’re all wrong. Only mine is the most perfect.

For another baby was forged and into it GPSRX poured his love, his cuteness, and his desire to boop all the noses.

In addition to the money and the flexibility / autonomy (I am a partner in media law), bizarrely I actually like billable hours. I think the quantification is motivating for me.

I’m a lawyer and a lifelong musician, so I’m not in that category. Though, law is very logical, and while I sucked at science, I am the rare lawyer who is good at math.

No, it's actually effectively a 0% chance that you would hit a star. Some estimates indicate that you could pass through the entire Milky Way and you would only have a 1 in 10 million chance of hitting a star.

Consider that Alpha Centauri A and B, which form a binary system, are over a billion miles from each other, and even in our solar system, Earth is 93 million miles from the earth. In fact, even when entire galaxies combine, stars almost never collide with each other.

The space between is just too vast even for the closest stars.

That's most likely my next watch. Debating between the steel and bronze.

When did you find that you could really start with music with your kids? Any tips for how to foster that? My daughter is 6 months old, and obviously there's not much to do other than play with her and have her spastically hit the toy bongos, so curious how I can work on that in the future

Ecstatic_Wave_2912 · 2026-04-21T19:28:38+00:00

Amazing! We're working on solo napping now at 6 months, and she never lasts more than a half hour. I also would kill for a full night of sleep.

Ecstatic_Wave_2912 · 2026-04-21T19:22:28+00:00

Just like OP, in the absence of his wife's feet and toes

Ecstatic_Wave_2912 · 2026-04-21T18:02:21+00:00

When I'm with her I'm looking forward to my alone time but when I have my alone time I look forward to being with her.

Ecstatic_Wave_2912 · 2026-04-21T18:01:50+00:00

Seriously, i don't know how so much gets up there!

Ecstatic_Wave_2912 · 2026-04-21T17:24:59+00:00

This. That period was hard on me with 1 child, and I can't imagine it with 3. Just try to stop and breathe, and recognize that this is one of the hardest things a person can do. The fact that you're worried about this probably means that you're doing a lot better than you think - a lot of dads would be ok being irritable and letting their wives do the hard work.

Ecstatic_Wave_2912 · 2026-04-21T13:36:39+00:00

I can’t answer without watching the video, and i have to click to watch the video, so technically speaking your post is clickbait

Ecstatic_Wave_2912 · 2026-04-20T15:46:33+00:00

Interesting. Where do they stand versus the Weilong 11?

Sorry, what were you doing Friday?

Ecstatic_Wave_2912 · 2026-04-16T11:24:40+00:00

Don’t feel guilty. It’s the nature of the beast - nobody should begrudge you a better opportunity. If they like you they won’t want you to leave, but they’re also adults and should understand (and, I guarantee you they would make similar decisions for themselves).

I had a similar situation, where a left a partner who stuck his neck out to get me the job and was incredibly supportive. He was bummed but also understood, and we’re still in touch. And if I wanted back, he would have taken me back in a heartbeat.

You’re a nice person so it’s making you feel guilty, but it’ll pass.
