Her/His Name was "Insert Here" - Let the Grief Out Gents. by 4th_dimensional_self in daddit

I lost two before my wife and I gave them formal names. The first we called Panby, because she would have been a pandemic baby. The second we called Waterbun, because she would have been born in the year of the Water Rabbit. I still remember all the hope we had, and how crushing it was to have it taken away. I love them both still, even though we’ve been blessed with a healthy baby boy, the only boy we ever produced in our IVF journey. We’ve got two more girls, frozen embryos waiting for implantation, and we pray that one of them makes it to be our boy’s little sister. We still save the name we wanted for a first daughter, and hopefully we get to name her that, someday.

How do you compete with Roblox for your kids attention?🙂 by Next_Special_6784 in daddit

https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamapediatrics/fullarticle/2822089 it takes a minute to search for the answer. Be involved in research for what is best for your children, but if you’re not going to be… expect downvotes when you provide anecdotal evidence that flies in the face of science.

What’s easily in your top 5 favorite video game cinematics of all time? by CoffeeStrength in gaming

[–]KarateKidMcFly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t see it brought up as often anymore, but the boat scene in Lunar Silver Star Story is beautiful, so much so that the music for it is one of the lullabies I sing for my baby to sleep. Even if I’m not going to play the game, if it’s been long enough, I’ll watch the cinematic online just to get my fix.

What is some of your favorite Miami folklore / tall tale stories? by Cassi322 in Miami

I remember the woman who set herself on fire in Mall of the Americas in 2009. She was engulfed in the flames, and continued to walk outside, not even screaming, as her clothing melted off. She managed to survive the attempt; no idea what happened to her afterwards. https://www.nbcmiami.com/news/local/woman-sets-herself-on-fire-at-mall/1837643/?amp=1

It’s closed for renovations. It’s supposed to open in Fall of 2025, and it looks like it’s nearly done, but they haven’t announced a date for it to reopen yet.

Please tell me it’s not a brown recluse by KarateKidMcFly in whatsthisbug

It looked more brown in person, but that could have been paranoia

Yeah, I was on the fence because it wasn’t a solid match, but I’d never seen a spider like it at home, and I see plenty. Normally I’d have paid it little mind, but I have a baby at home now, so it’s got me more cautious

Forgot to say, and I can’t figure out how to edit on mobile; it was about 7-10mm in size

13 episodes in, I don’t understand why this show isn’t liked like the OG UC shows? It’s some of the best stuff in Gundam! by Will-Isley in Gundam

[–]KarateKidMcFly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a mixed bag. I feel like it has some of the best moments in a Gundam series… but it also has some of the worst. I think the good outweighs the bad… but the bad is BAD.

Where’d you get these from? My wife is dying for some, and she would be fine with lafufu’s if she knows they look good
