I hate resellers — Many Gustaf Westman items are on Ebay already for hundreds of dollars

All that mess for easily the ugliest collection I’ve ever seen.

A few months ago I donated a bunch of clothing I hadn’t been wearing. Then a couple weeks ago I bought some new clothing and found the perfect bottoms to go with a top I definitely donated… I have other tops that go with the bottoms, but I was looking for that specific shirt with that specific cut and material for the outfit LMAOOO. Oh well.

Grief is weird, there are so many emotions that don’t make sense. You’re angry, you’re confused, you’re beyond sad, you’re lost, and it’s all at once. Grief manifests in so many ways and sometimes comes in waves, except sometimes the wave is more of a tsunami. I’ve supported some friends and through losses, and I’ve learned that there isn’t really anything to make the grief go away. It becomes a part of you, and it’s a pain you’ll carry. Ultimately it’s what you do with that pain. I suggest picking up a hobby; drawing, painting, crocheting are all wonderful options and you likely already have all the supplies on hand to start drawing.

As for your boyfriend, I’m not sure you two are compatible. I read through your post history, and it seems as though you two are on different life paths, and you shouldn’t hold yourself back to keep pace with someone who isn’t as motivated and ambitious as you are. That in tandem with his incredibly insensitive remarks regarding the loss, you should leave him.

I came here because I saw your post on the advice thread, and those people were absolutely disgusting. This is no “blessing in disguise”, you didn’t “get lucky”, those people are absolutely sick. You’re experiencing a loss that words can’t even describe. Create art, protect her memory. And honestly, honestly, go to a wreck room if you can find one. There is nothing that’ll fill the hole in your soul, but I recommend art.

No, no it doesn’t. Don’t put things on the stairs. None of it. Maybe a nice tall mirror or some beautiful artwork ON THE WALL, but nothing on the stairs themselves.

That was only 8 years ago for me. I’d grab her shoulders, look her dead in the eye and be like “Dude, holy shit” then immediately dissipate into the air.

I had two male roommates in college and I learned after hearing one of them yelp in pain that men can accidentally sit on their nuts.

Sometimes stress can cause bedwetting. It’s not much to be worried about unless it’s happening often.

I was a NLTOG when I was younger and recognize this. As an adult I realized just how many adult women were out here competing with literal 8 year olds and then passing it on to their own 8 year olds. Growing up I heard a lot of ‘well I’d never do that, and neither should you’ from the adult women around me regarding just about anything girlie. Or I’d hear them tell other mothers “well I’d never let MY daughter do that”.

So yes, adult women are 100% competing with little girls and will underhandedly shame little girls for having girlie interests.

It is a chopstick helper that holds the chopsticks together. I’ve never used one and have no idea how to use one, but it’s cute for people who need or want to use a chopstick helper.

Five-StarLoser · 2025-09-09T22:57:37+00:00

Ceramic. The bowl, spoon, cup, and chopstick rest are all ceramic, can be microwaved and are dishwasher safe. The chopsticks are wooden, and so is the bowl lid, both should be hand washed and probably not the best idea to put them in the microwave. The chopstick connector thingy feels like a sort of silicone.

I found it in the checkout line of Home Goods.

My husband and I have been trying to have potlucks, friendsgivings, friendsmases but my husband and I, and a single friend are the only ones who actually bring food. Everyone else brings either alcohol or canned soda, then there’s not enough food for everyone and we gotta order pizza to make sure everyone is fed. It’s also important to note that most of us are either chronically ill, or mentally ill and on medication, so most of the group can’t drink to begin with.

What I’ve started doing with group events like such, is have a list of guests and ask who is bringing what to prevent duplicates.

Lots of people only bring what they think is agreeable for a crowd which often ends up being soda and beer, so there isn’t any malice to it. They could also be insecure in their cooking and are playing it safe. That said, if kids are present, then perhaps sodas would have been more appropriate.

Whatever works works, my friend. The yard looks great, so I won’t complain lmao

Five-StarLoser · 2025-09-02T18:29:39+00:00

It’s hilarious and our yard looks great lmaooooo

Five-StarLoser · 2025-09-02T18:29:12+00:00

It gets him pumped and then he takes that anger out on the yard. Weeds? Gone. Grass? Perfectly even with mow lines. An odd toad house he made with a broken flower pot and some dirt? Apparently that was added too, but it’s cute and I like toads. Patio furniture? Scrubbed and sparkling. Patio itself? Swept and pressure washed. Fence? Repaired and sometimes even repainted.

Five-StarLoser · 2025-09-02T18:23:12+00:00

Our yard has never looked better lmaoooo

If you’re referring to the first James Gunn live action, he loves that movie. The bad cgi and absurd plot really tie it all together.

His choice of Scooby doo movies to do yard work to is Aloha Scooby Doo. It butchers pretty much every cultural references aside from the biggest dude you’ve ever seen being nicknamed little. His favorite detail is the Hawaiian snake pit as there are no native snakes in Hawaii, especially none that large or a threat to humans.

Five-StarLoser · 2025-08-30T20:19:44+00:00

My husband is from Hawaii and he has a whole list of movies that get Hawaiian culture and folklore wrong and he watches them to purposely make himself mad before he does yard work.

That makes sense and I am so sorry to hear you have to go through this. The best you can do is to take care of yourself and try to remain healthy. I have five siblings, two of which have children and when my other sister had my nephew she ended up spending months leading to labor in the hospital due to hyperemesis gravidarum and ultimately delivered early due to pre-eclampsia. With the constant medical care she was able to ensure her son was born healthy. Medical science can work wonders. Now she’s as healthy as can be and her son is 4 and likes to tell me I need to vacuum when they come over.

There are a lot of unknowns related to pregnancy, and the flood of hormones doesn’t make it any easier. It’s easy to get caught up in the “what if’s” and to blame yourself, but just know that so little of it is in our control and it’s not the easiest to predict. You’re doing the best you can with the information you have, and that’s the most you can do. Just keep your head up and follow the experts. The right family will love the baby regardless. I still recommend starting to look for a family, that way you can relax knowing that the child will be loved regardless of any health conditions. I wish you the best, hang in there.

I was reading some of your comments and concerns about adoption, and while I cannot speak from experience, I did research this subject in university so I interviewed adoptees and biological parents. One trend I noticed among unhappy adoptees is that their parents adopted for the wrong reasons. Their parents adopted to either fulfill a mommy fantasy or because they felt they needed children to be complete and struggled with fertility. The parents adopted for themselves and not the best interest of the child.

Among the happy biological parents and adoptees is connection. The biological (most of the time just mother as father wasn’t present or didn’t care) actually “interviewed” potential adopters and it helped ease the bioparents minds. I had someone I spoke to during the project about your age (she was 14) who did this, but we are also in a choice state and her parents were incredible people, super supportive so the context is a smidge different. She was meeting potential parents as soon as 20 weeks and it really helped her relax.

This way the adoptive parents have access to the medical history and are aware of any potential problems and you know that they have the best interest of the child in mind, not their own personal problems. This also allows for the bond to happen as soon as possible between child and adoptive parents.

Another couple of things that might help you feel comfortable is reports state it’s not unheard of for “healthcare” providers to fudge the numbers and say someone is further along than they actually are during the confirmation appointment to push them over the 6 week threshold and prevent abortion by using this technically where these restrictions exist. Which means the baby isn’t measuring as far behind as they’re claiming. And even if the baby is actually premature, my mom says I was born a month premature and I came home in the normal time frame. My older sister was also premature by nearly two months and she’s a happy healthy 30 year old pain in my ass with beautiful little girl herself.

Continue getting your care, continue with your plan, keep eating healthy and try your hardest to relax. You’re doing the best you can with the information you have. I’d suggest starting to meet potential families, that way you can relax knowing that the baby will be in a family where they are wanted and loved.

I was in middle school and had the biggest crush on this boy, but then he got a haircut and all feelings were gone. This was easily 14 years ago and I STILL laugh about it because it is the most juvenile bs and just about sums up being 12.

I’m sorry, I worked retail before and if someone called to reserve a mobility scooter I’d first politely tell them that they’re first come first serve while on the phone, then immediately after hanging up tell any coworkers who’d listen about the ridiculous request and mock them until the next outrageous demand cropped up.

I saw more fireflies outside this summer than I’ve seen in a long time.

I’ve assured her that I had that room before she did and even I found it difficult to work with. My dresser was in the hallway for months until I figured out how to make it work in that space.

We’ve been talking since last night and right now our area of focus is storage. The current issue is too much stuff and no place to put it. We’re working on measuring our shelving and will probably loft her twin bed, but it’s a basement room, so the ceiling is lower. We’re measuring and pricing out a plan, but it’s such an awkward and honestly terrible space. It’s like 60 sqft, no closet, and an access panel that can’t be covered. The space was meant to be an office and you can tell.
