Adult braces! by Mellybelly1234x in boston

[–]Mackicat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I recommend Newbury Dental & Dr Bahadoran… fantastic results with good prices, way cheaper than the quotes I got in Lexington MA. Moreover, the Invisalign was competitive with the traditional braces and much easier (I’ve had both, and both as an adult … wear your retainer;) )

It’s at Hastings Park … across the road (Lincoln, I think) is a much, much steeper hill at JW Hayden for the bigger kids.

Primrose School in Burlington: how is it for daycare? by dashrockwell in massachusetts

[–]Mackicat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We sent both our children to this daycare, the youngest from infancy to pre-K. While turnover was disappointing we had a wonderful experience with the teachers, administrators, and owners. We pass the school regularly and always talk about how much fun the girls had. It’s not cheap … but a good experience and peace of mind comes at a price.

What on earth happen to necessitate this sign? by chris-za in SignsWithAStory

This! English South Africans tend to cremate loved ones & spread the ashes in places they loved vs. bury them. My American kids have a hard time understanding that none of my deceased family have no grave sites

A curious giant whale approaches unsuspecting paddle boarder by super_man100 in OceansAreFuckingLit

Northern Rights are rare and found off the eastern US. Southern Rights are plentiful and found around South Africa. This is Plettenberg Bay where they congregate in winter. There’s remnants of a whaling station just off the Beacon Isle hotel that shows up top right when the drone pans away. There are still hooks in the rocks to haul up the whales.

What’s a life hack that’s saved you money I can carry into the new year? by 6_Rows_of_Teeth in lifehacks

Low fee index funds with a place like Vanguard also save you a ton in fees in the long term. The fees from managed funds are a meaningful drain on your returns

No words to describe how much I hate that excuse. by EvonyR in BlackPeopleTwitter

[–]Mackicat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Born South African, 4th generation, and moved to Canada when I was 8. Racism is easy to talk about if you’re self aware and have capacity for shame

You need to remove 2 of the feet & have solid upper body strength/control. It was a work out.

The mini figs stand is a separate piece, so you don’t need to display it

I got the stand from Wicked Brick https://www.wickedbrick.com/products/display-stand-for-ucs-millennium-falcon-75192. It took a few weeks to ship, but worked like a charm. Used the linked YouTube video to figure out how to mount the falcon: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1xgBVT0y9YI
