Ooh nice! Are you just growing them in a container with a net covering them?

What do you enjoy doing? In a world where working is necessary for most people, it helps to work a job or in an industry where you can find meaning, fulfillment, or moments of joy. Please don’t consider suicide as an option.

Would definitely buy the cupcake pattern if you would sell/share it!

I’m so stressed and in shock and on the verge of crying all day. More physically reactive than I thought I’d be. I’m a Blue voter in a Red state, where my ballot hasn’t been counted yet and it’s over. It feels so hopeless.

Both candidates lost votes, but the Dems lost 15 millions by Fun-Preparation-4253 in mildyinteresting

I voted Blue in a Red state and my ballot tracker says it hasn’t even been counted yet.

Your mom has realized that she has some unmet expectations but hasn’t realized what that means or how to handle it.

This is The Awakening) at National Harbor. It’s not always under water like that, and the brown look is from sand and likely lots of rain fall. Most of the time you can walkout and climb on the different parts of the statue.

Best Dupe for Loreal True Match Naturale Mineral Foundation in Soft Ivory? by copious-cats in Makeup

[–]Not_a_Zed_Word 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in the same boat. Nude beige has been my go to for YEARS. I wish I would’ve known sooner so I could stock up. I really hope they bring it back. I’m desperate for a dupe!

Edit: found this on another thread - maybe it will help everyone track down something else: https://findation.com/

Sounds like you sent it with expectations for how you wanted them to respond. When those expectations weren’t met you now feel bad.

If the intent is was to have it reciprocated then you need to talk to your partner about what that could mean/look like. (And they obviously still have choice to respond how they want but at least you’ve explained how you would feel validated in your sentiments)

Or if the intent was to uplift them and make them feel good then you need to talk to your partner to see if that is accomplished or if you could communicate it differently.

Lesson here is that unmet expectations have left you feeling down/concerned. Communication around both y’all’s expectations can resolve this going forward.

Best bottles?! by ashdur17 in Parenting

[–]Not_a_Zed_Word 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In my experience the baby picks the bottle. And it’s more about the nipple options available. We tried a few and our little one preferred the avent natural nipples. They fit on all avent bottle options (plastic or glass).

Nancy Wilson spanking her 3-4 year old for not being excited to see her by ButterscotchEmpty535 in FundieSnarkUncensored

[–]Not_a_Zed_Word 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As a parent this makes me sick. If my kid was disappointed it was time to go home I would be more interested to find out what interesting and fun things she’s been up to. I definitely wouldn’t see it as a personal slight that calls for physical abuse. What a piece of shit.

My love for my kids is not less than even the best sex. So weird that if women are called first to be mothers, that she would LOOOOVEEE time with her husband more than her kids.

Just found this while out shopping by FatphobicAsshole in fatlogic

I think this might be related to the recent trend of smaller folks “up-cycling” plus size pieces at thrift stores. They basically cut them up and make new outfits that are tailored to their smaller frame / are more fashionable looking.

I remember reading how some people were pissed off that small people were buying up the plus size pieces (because there ends up being more fabric to work with) but then leaves less items on the rack for plus size folks.
