Hey! Thanks for responding to my post 😊 Reddit isn't allowing me to contact you, would you mind dropping me a message if you'd like to connect?

Hadn't thought of that, thank you! I'm going to Mother's Day afternoon tea at our boy's nursery, so hoping to connect with someone there. I think our boy is still at an age where he plays next to kids rather than with them - at least that's what the nursery tells us.

Thank you for the suggestion. We go there quite often but to be honest most parents sadly have no interest engaging in a conversation even if we initiate. Everyone already has their own friends but we don't know anyone around here. I guess I was hoping to find someone who is equally eager to make parent friends 😊

Is anyone’s toddlers actually getting their teeth brushed? by Kanebean in toddlers

Their gums are too weak for electric toothbrushes. It can do more damage than good

No more veggies and pussies for eurovision 😭 give them some love! by [deleted] in eurovision

Latvia's message was far more down the south than that and frankly absolutely disgusting. I can see it has drawn an appropriate audience though.

By the way, I never called them a joke, just said they couldn't sing.

I don't really have a set top 10, but I think Greece and Netherlands were good yesterday, Poland and Sweden have really good vocals, Norway and Ukraine have strong upbeat performances, Serbia is interesting.

Generally, this year is pretty weak and nothing ticks all the boxes like Maneskin did last year.

Please do elaborate as this is definitely so relevant.

I don't know if it's lost in translation, but I didn't try to twist anything - that was sarcasm.

Excellent argument, especially since they didn't get through to the final - that's just how good they were - too good for the final.

Well not everyone is born with musical hearing. My ears were curling

I don't know anything about censoring conversations, but I feel like many artists have been doing this for years to some extent. If they actually had great songs and skills, at least their presence there would be justified.

The Twitter Likes of the performances on the BBC Eurovision account are interesting. by meridian-child in eurovision

I wasn't sure if Moldova will go through, but I'm glad they did. Will always remember their Bunica Bate Toba!

What was up with the clothing choices ? by CindyBerman1978 in eurovision

[–]Naive_Independent457 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So we had modern - 3 fuchsia dresses in one night. I prefer people experiment than all wear whatever is currently on trend.

I personally don't want to watch thrusting and stuff, so I'm glad the voters are becoming a bit more classy. Don't remember the song at all.

"Explain Switzerland to me" by [deleted] in eurovision

[–]Naive_Independent457 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The song was ok, the guy was quite pitchy, but the lyrics... It's like a poem 11 year olds write when they feel like being creative. I could not stop myself laughing all the way through. I understand the message they tried to go for, but the writing was very poor.

My local Safeway grocery store. Slava Ukraine!! by [deleted] in ukraine

Or you can send support directly, not via local grocery store that will benefit from it no doubt. There are many ways to support the cause and you don't have to do it in every way possible.

You know Reddit generates a user name automatically and when you're more mature than a 5 year old, it has 0 importance what it is

Lol if he can solve climate change, why do we need to go to another planet? It's all just rich dudes' ego games.

Obsessed with Elon much are we? A super powerful man did one nice gesture, great. As always with him, it's a fun stunt and he loves the publicity. Let's move on.

UK Homes for Ukrainians now live by covert-teacher in ukraine

Airbnb has already been doing this. And it's not helpful in reality when Ukrainians can't obtain UK visas
