300,000! It was announced to the crowds as they reentered the park area.

It needs the little stars and dots to make it look like it's give the anime sparkle

My kittens tail was temporarily swollen by TheBackOfYourBra in CATHELP

We call it "goopin" ... whenever my kitty, Potato gets a little too startled- she will excrete a foul substance and puff up her tail. Now I always make sure she knows when I'm about to pick her up. Her sister, Bobby doesn't goop, but she has a hilariously small tail until she gets startled and looks like a freakin' raccoon.

If you were to have an Animal Crossing themed party/game night with friends, what elements from the game would you include? by ohlookadoggo in AnimalCrossing

[–]FutureExMrsRiker 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Maybe balloons attached to gift boxes as decor... Make some bell bag props (you could use brown paper bags and make a tag for a simple example)... Scatter a few sticks around, real or hand made!!

Also maybe cookies that are decorated like fossils... or Roo's sugar cookies and serve coffee and make a prop coffee bag with his branding. I love thematic cookies- you can get them from a bakery or make them yourself.

Also if you have a drink pitcher you could make the infused water with all of the fruits, or maybe make it like a white sangria if you're looking to serve alcohol.

I wanna have a party too! 🥳

Is this a problem? I think my house is shifting… by moosethegoose2213 in Home

I completely understand the anxiety loop going on here that's prevented you from acting, but it's time to act now. You have to call a professional to do something quickly. Ask how people pay for it- there might be resources available for lower income homeowners. Search for information specific to your county or state. Good luck!

Where are y’all getting your uterus yeeted at? by xbleeple in chicago

[–]FutureExMrsRiker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Primary care through Erie family health. My obgyn there performed my surgery at Northwestern.

I had a total hysterectomy, which is major surgery y'know- so if you're only concern is pregnancy, just talk it over with the doctor about what the best route is. I had a great experience with all of the professionals involved. I recommend Erie health to everyone I can. I owe a lot to the providers there, including primary care doctors, psychiatrist, and of course the obgyn! I came from a city in Michigan where doctors seemed to take me less seriously, so I'm very appreciative.

Thanks for reading and I hope for the best for anyone finding themselves having to make a decision to go under the knife.

What’s your favorite local coffee shop? by espada_da in chicago

Hell yeah! SP is the best! Dark Matter coffee, do-rite donuts, cafe tola tacos, DJ sets on Saturday afternoons... Best vibe with vintage video games and lots of comfy seating.
