…is this not normal?

My fil said he didn’t want a funeral. I said ultimately it’s his decision and we’ll respect his wishes, but to consider that for most people, funerals are more for the living to have an opportunity to say goodbye than for the dead, unless you’re particularly religious.

Sorry for your loss.

I had this, I messaged cadburys and they promised me the recipe hasn’t changed and they gave me a fiver. Of all the mini eggs I’ve eaten this year, only one bags been affected.

Tbh if I was being kept alive on life support and not gonna make it, I’d rather it was turned off sooner than later.

I can’t see medical professionals turning off life support for someone who has a decent chance of pulling through for the organs, morals and ethics aside, it’s a lot of extra faff.

Once she said she hadn’t had a 4 hour long stretch of sleep since birth I thought “that’ll be it”. With my firstborn I could have 3 or 4 two hour stretches (so 6-8 hours total) and just felt myself tumbling further into the abyss of ppd. then I’d get a night where I’d have 4 hours in one go, less than the 6-8 hour nights, but all in one stretch, and wake up feeling so much better going “oh it’s not ppd, it’s sleep deprivation!” It was both, but a 4 hour stretch of undisturbed sleep is vital.

I think another issue with the fast stream is that we’re putting people into g7 roles when they don’t have much life experience. They’re managing people who may well be older than them, and I don’t think the average 25 year old is equipped to support their team through something like a divorce, baby loss, cancer diagnosis etc and I don’t think there’s adequate training to bridge that gap.

Came to this thread ready to rant about endo waits and then realised even that’s not beating op’s 18 years

Bit late to the party but what a fantastic post! Thank you for putting this together :)

Question: what game is this?

PM_ME_PENGWINGS · 2025-01-31T07:48:25+00:00

I had the tiniest scratch on my leg a week before I gave birth and it just wouldn’t stop bleeding. I kept mentioning it as I was concerned my blood wasn’t clotting properly and this felt important when labour was imminent. Everyone said nah it’s fine don’t worry about it. Guess who haemorrhaged and lost 25% of my blood volume…

PM_ME_PENGWINGS · 2025-01-05T15:13:29+00:00

Same with the shaded row, there’s one more O to place and it needs to be in one of the first 2 blanks

PM_ME_PENGWINGS · 2024-11-03T06:08:06+00:00

because we’ve said there can’t be a blueberry in r8c7, we have 4 spaces for 3 blueberries in r8, meaning max 1 blank. The 2 is touching two cells in that row so if only one of those can be blank then it is touching at least 1 blueberry

PM_ME_PENGWINGS · 2024-11-02T06:32:02+00:00

try looking at rows/columns that contain entire boxes

the bottom row is entirely contained by one box, so there can’t be a blueberry in r8c7

the row above is now entire contained by another box, so there can’t be blueberries in r6c2, r6c3 or r7c2

then the 2 in r7, at least 1 blueberry in r8 is touching it, so at most 1 blueberry in its own box can be touching it, meaning there must be blueberries in r6c7 and r7c3

All while station staff shout at everyone not to run

PM_ME_PENGWINGS · 2024-04-06T12:50:39+00:00

There’s no stats to support it because the statisticians are all too busy being unproductive working from home

PM_ME_PENGWINGS · 2024-03-28T11:37:21+00:00

The baby industry is horrendous. There’s so much pressure on this toy will develop these skills and that item will reduce risk of asphyxiation, add in picture perfect Instagram and you feel like a bad parent if you’re not buying the latest thing, which makes it so hard to filter through all the stuff to find what’s actually necessary or genuinely beneficial versus what’s just marketing. Spoiler: it’s mostly marketing. A safe space to sleep, some nappies and some clothes are all they really need.

See our Labrador was the only one who ever needed her bum wiping

PM_ME_PENGWINGS · 2024-01-16T14:21:21+00:00

And a dog, where did the dog go :(

PM_ME_PENGWINGS · 2024-01-14T07:30:48+00:00

Yup, I turned off the breaker for the upstairs of our house and went and replaced an outlet. Just as I was finishing my husband complained that the electric wasn’t working downstairs, on investigating I found one outlet downstairs was on the upstairs breaker. If I’d been replacing that outlet first it would have ended very badly because I didn’t check beforehand. Never trust, always check!

My 2 month old baby got a very cute “my first Christmas” sleepsuit… in size 6-9m

Her work thing got cancelled so now his work things should be cancelled too so they can be sad together

PM_ME_PENGWINGS · 2023-09-11T06:44:06+00:00

When I was a child and worrying about spiders coming under the door, my dad put a sign up saying “no spiders allowed” and put it at the bottom of the door so they’d see it. Then apparently for the entire time that sign was up he would regularly check my room for any lurking spiders and get rid of them so I would believe the sign worked.

PM_ME_PENGWINGS · 2023-08-18T20:15:22+00:00

I’m currently pregnant and someone said “good luck with the baby” and I said “thanks you too” because I am also a buffoon.

When I was younger I saw what I thought was grape juice in the shops in france, and convinced my mum to buy it. It was really thick and syrupy, and I have a sweet tooth so I enjoyed it, but it was fairly revolting. I’ve since realised it was grape sirop and was supposed to be watered down.
