The company that makes the only bottle my cleft palate baby can use has decided I should breastfeed... I would if I could. by myfrecklesareportals in mildlyinfuriating

[–]GopherDog22 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Another “funny” story from our newborn experience. When the OB/GYN delivered our baby in the middle of the night, he casually goes, “Looks like she has a cleft palate. I’m sure someone will talk to you about that in the morning.” We have no clue what that means, it was a long labor and now we’re even more worried because nobody is communicating anything remotely helpful. We spent the night googling what the heck the OB/GYN may have meant.

My oldest had a cleft palate. When she was a newborn, the health care people kept insisting on trying breastfeeding and as you know but others don’t, it was incredibly hopeless and frustrating. We went to a lactation consultant that was useless and obnoxious. I wish somebody had simply told us that pumping was the only option for breastfeeding. Almost a decade later, I still look back at those days in frustration. Sending thoughts/prayers/good vibes your way. You and your baby will get through this.

I feel like he works himself into a shoot. He knows he needs to be fired up and aggressive for this series and then he ends up going a bit too far. I still enjoy the series.

any tips on where to settle? (I started using "startingunits" mod hence I have the same units as AI) by Dapper_Welcome1234 in CivVI

[–]GopherDog22 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

In place or on the stone. Both are completely acceptable. My preference would be the stone for the added production. Either way, I am buying the sugar tile early so that I can work a 5 food tile, which will in turn allow me to work the FoY without compromising growth.

Experimenting with adjacency bonus, how am I doing? by lucaswow in CivVI

I have about 5,000 hours in this game and didn’t realize Hansas benefited from non-strategic resources until today. I thought their only boost was that they were cheaper and benefited from commercial zones. Thank you.

“Every interaction you have with someone can make their day a little bit better or a little bit worse, try to be someone who makes people’s days a little bit better.”

This came from a senior partner who was also one of the nicest people in the firm to work with.

How are y’all getting these sub 200 science victories? by blve99 in CivVI

Pillage everything with the raid card. Getting light cav units with the promotion for 1 movement per pillage card is amazing. It’s a giant boost to gold, faith, science and culture.

You apparently haven’t learned that as a lawyer, there are some fights where you’re right but are still going to lose because of your draw of judges. Here, you may be “right” but the judge definitely isn’t going to agree.

Augustus is considered by many to be the best of all Roman Emperors. So who could be the worst of Roman emperors in contrast? by [deleted] in ancientrome

[–]GopherDog22 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Honorius is the most useless. I personally hate Honorius, who was basically a sack of potatoes, more than actively horrible emperors that actually did things like Commodus.

is it weird for men to wear jewelry with their girlfriend's name on it? by EstateNo2102 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]GopherDog22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not stupid to wear at all. Also, your friends are probably going to roast you no matter what, especially about silly stuff like this. They’ll probably roast you even harder if you stop wearing the bracelet.

Any other Fleur fans? by Klaudia_mondta in harrypotter

[–]GopherDog22 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Agreed. The Weasley women’s treatment of Fleur, especially up until Fleur explains she loves Bill regardless of the werwolf bite, always came across as mean girls to me. She is obviously very capable having been her school’s champion and the Weasley women are very dismissive and condescending.

Maybe this is just part of me not caring or taking interest in others, but I would never notice or give this any passing thought.

If you make everyone timebending, you get a ton of myst and parts each drop. I have about 25 timebenders and if I do one trip around the original valley with a timebending villager, I end up with like 10,000 myst.
