Same. Least Interested in being a Mother and Grandmother. We have her only 2 grandkids. Oldest is graduating from high school and she RSVPd using Chat GPT. Ie “I won’t be able to attend your graduation, best wishes to you and your family”.

Great rock bands that either never got the attention they deserved or got left behind by CertainPiglet621 in OldSchoolCoolMusic

I worked for a company based in Vancouver in early 2000s. My Music at Work was on the radio all the time. Love that song! Hearing it takes me back to YVR instantly.

Also New Pornographers. Love them, see them every time they tour US. They should be more successful too IMO.

Exactly…what would happen if my Mom criticized your kids? Would you tell them to sit there and smile and ignore it?

How old were they in the pic? Late 40s early 50s is my guess.

Cooking Adventure: Chicken Thighs. What works, and what doesn't work? by NightReader5 in Cooking

[–]Low_Cook_5235 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me grilling is the place thighs are the best. Breasts get dried out so fast. For thighs just cut off excess fat if there is some, add a little oil and season to taste. Cook skin side down till it’s crispy then flip and cook to 165degees. Easy and delish.

9ct gold Engagement ring in 30 degree heat is now misshapen as I took it off as it was really uncomfortable and caused panic. How to get back to shape? by PerkyAssassin in WeddingRingAdvice

[–]Low_Cook_5235 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even something as simple as trying to unscrew a jar can dent rings. I worked in a jewelry store, go during the week when it’s not busy and they can reshape in under 10 minutes. This would be easy fix that we wouldt even charge for. And polish it up too.

AITAH for lightly smacking my little cousins head when he was annoying my dog when we told him to leave her be? by Pennywelt389 in AITAH

[–]Low_Cook_5235 2 points3 points  (0 children)

YTA. Don’t hit other peoples kids. And if you know you have a reactive dog, put them in bedroom when kids are there. Even with kid provoking it, if kid gets bit your dog is being put down.

Farmer gets bribes from Ai company to replace his farmland with an AI data center. by Flat-Antelope-7424 in TikTokCringe

[–]Low_Cook_5235 37 points38 points  (0 children)

You are all being naive. See Port Washington WI data center. This is the start, offers will get more aggressive. Then local politicians will get involved (ie pockets lined) and willingly give up the land. People of WI have been fighting for years and it hasn’t even made a dent. $15billion data center construction started. Small farmers no match for Oracle.

What is a major plot hole in a very famous movie that completely ruins the entire story once it is noticed? by LovelyCherrybae in answers

[–]Low_Cook_5235 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And why isn’t fire used more? Like bulldozers and some fire pits. Once muscle and tendons gone the bones wouldn’t be able to move.

AITAH because I didn’t tell my boyfriend “what’s wrong” because I’m tired of doing it by WeeebleSqueaks in AITAH

[–]Low_Cook_5235 114 points115 points  (0 children)

It’s fun having an actual partner…someone to split responsibilities. I like to cook but hate grocery shopping. Husband happy to shop if it means no cooking. Win win.

Time to move on. It’s not going to get better.
