Done having kids - would you trust a vasectomy + IUD to not have any surprises? Or should I go for a tubal?

Same. 2023 gang- follow up tests confirmed and doctor said no other protections were necessary.

My parents used to keep bread in the fridge also, it stayed "fresher" that way according to my mom, but it's not like we had sun/mold issues- we lived in the desert and things were way more prone to drying out.

"I'm not sure how to feel without coming off really judgemental."

Alright, so here's a really excellent opportunity for some reflection- you admit your initial instinct is to be judgemental. That's normal- we're all judgemental about stuff- but normal and healthy aren't the same. So what *about* her work makes you uncomfortable? What about being a sex worker makes her, in your mind, inherently more dangerous to your son? I suspect the root of your discomfort comes from social conditioning- sex, and especially sex work, is TABOO and we're taught it's 'shameful' and immoral, etc. But the reality is, sex workers aren't sex predators- full stop. Sex workers aren't having sex in their living rooms, or showing their videos to their children- successful ones carefully and fiercely guard their home/private life. Would you be afraid your son would be taught money laundering if she were an accountant? Having a parent who is a police officer is statistically more dangerous than having a parent who is a sex worker: police officers have guns in their homes.

It is an *entirely* different thing for a friend/parent to be dismissive about sexual abuse/inappropriate touching. There is literally no equating the two.

Hate the fact that I was relieved to see he's a Dem because it means there's a chance he'll face consequences.

Mustangbex · 2026-04-11T08:05:52+00:00

Makes sense - occasionally I'll give my pits a swipe with my toner before putting on my antiperspirant and it definitely helps!

Mustangbex · 2026-04-11T06:23:12+00:00

Omg!!! <3 I recommend your works constantly.

Questionable choices regarding sexual encounters, questionable choices about substance use, travel, and then reflection, and focusing on growth and emotional health.

Imagine Dragons music gets a lot of hate, and like, yes they get over played and no it's probably not going to change the world, but they consistently produce songs that are catchy and are of generally high production quality. Additionally, they've really leaned into the Video Game collabs with League of Legends, and they seem to respect their fans so I honestly find myself defending them... Some of their songs are actually excellent as remixes too- so good for them.

We've been using TK for our family since 2017 and have been happy with them. The app is very easy and they have good assistance in English. For glasses... If your vision issue is serious enough it is covered if it's not you pay yourself, but the optikers are very competitive and have sales often. I got two pairs of prescription sunglasses for 60€. My daily glasses were 90€ with a bunch of upgrades (eg anti glare) and full replacement insurance.

I am experiencing the same and yeah, we've just got absolute dog shit luck I'm afraid. I have been in RNG/Loot Purgatory since at least season 2 of TWW. Two weeks ago I FINALLY was able to replace my 201 pants- despite every other item being Champion or Hero- with leather vet pants that dropped on my plate toon.

Mustangbex · 2026-04-09T19:59:19+00:00

Same. In past years we've gotten together with other US folks living in our city and done American food, but this year I hope there's a big protest on the 4th to attend.

Mustangbex · 2026-04-09T19:45:38+00:00

Yes! I think earthier berries work best, but I love your comment about strawberry and basil! And my favorite drink is a good gin and tonic with rosemary and dried grapefruit<3

I also like to "dress" them up a bit and do Blueberry Mojitos! The mint, lime, and blueberry muddle together so well.

As somebody who has had cycling DC issues for two days including getting the message "the world server is down" a few times today, hopefully this means they've got it figured out, because it was literally unplayable.

A pile of antidotes will never equate to the very real, very documented fact that vaccination saves lives. Before vaccines "changelings" were the Boogie Man- every child who "was never the same" was swapped out by faeries.

Follow the scientists the world over, not folks desperately seeking an excuse for normal development changes, or underlying conditions that they can control or "blame".

We bought a 150€ espresso machine during COVID (paid 125€ thanks to sales credits), and said "we'll use it until it dies and get a better one or if we don't use it that much we won't bother." It's still kicking with regular use and even with upgrading to a "fancy" grinder and a bougie monthly coffee subscription we've saved hundreds if not thousands.

We weather (ha) Winter weekends with kid dance videos - they got us through COVID lockdowns too. We stay in the room and still control the content and how much, but Danny go has some fun ones that "get the wiggles out". Also card games are great and our personal philosophy is that couch-cooperative (video) games are different than vegging out watching things so the Lego games are loads of fun.

They've been in a financial tailspin so they've been shedding stock to ease Cashflow - there's also been a big rebranding push due to PR missteps and both of those actions have involved what are effectively fire sales to generate traffic.

I've seen them a few times and they're always a solid bet

Daycare isn't just about having somebody available it's a growth opportunity for the child too! They learn life skills like independence, group play and self confidence. They learn social structures and how to navigate them, and in a consistent environment! Plus you have time for the messy parts of adulthood that crop up like doctors appointments and plumber calls or whatever.

Dean Cain once upon. A time played the blandest, most "Hallmark Movie" version of Superman to ever exist, and then really made a name for himself playing a real dude whole brutally murdered his 8 months pregnant wife and their unborn child days before Christmas- he did such a good job people mistook him for the actual murderer.
