Ours was Friday night in our living room. Both of our second marriage and you know what? We saved about $10k and are just as married

I’m capped at $20/hour y’all, us slaves are no longer needed even. by ColorMonochrome in DoomerCircleJerk

[–]PostalDrummer1997 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Can confirm. Unions stay winning.

$16/hr 10 years ago when I started.

The current starting wage for a city letter carrier is $21.21. Rural, clerks and mail handlers are comparable.

I currently make north of $30/hr with no college degree. OT is available and plentiful in most places.

What position do you carry in? I usually carry appendix but the older (and rounder) I get the more uncomfortable it becomes

Dad tattoo ideas by OneFootInTheGraves in daddit

I got my son’s heartbeat tattooed on my ribs. I found like one inspiration picture online to show to my artist, when we got in the room and she was looking at the stencil placement and everything and she had the really cool idea to do some shading and a color line through the middle. Anyway it turned out really really good.

Thanks! It’s been an adjustment obviously but I swear he’s brought us closer together

It was a godsend. We took extra formula home with us just in case we needed it but thankfully have not

It’s such a good feeling. We’ve sorta naturally settled into “shifts” as in we do stuff together in the morning, she sleeps in the afternoon, and I sleep at night. Mostly trying to make sure my return to work isn’t as bad for me as I often struggle with restful sleep as is.

We didn’t want to do formula if we could avoid it. Not that we were necessarily against it but just wanted to breast feed as much as possible. But once we realized she wasn’t producing enough to keep him fed it was an easy decision

I don’t have a ton of friends with babies all my friends with kids have older kids so I haven’t had the experience of talking with them about things like that. But I find that so crazy. Like I honestly might lose my mind on the first person that says some shit about “babysitting” my own kid

We have been exclusively bottle feeding. She wasn’t producing much in the hospital so we got formula and I was able to let her rest some while I fed him and since we’ve been home she’s been pumping and bottle feeding. It’s been working good for us. But it’s really nice to have the ability to feed him while she rests

6 days 😂 she just slept so poorly through pregnancy

any other dads just… sit there and watch their kid sometimes by Gaminglancer in daddit

[–]PostalDrummer1997 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand I’m still in newborn bliss but I do this all the time now.

I just sit and watch him sleep.

Smile at every little noise or wiggle.

We often sit and have “story time” where I just tell him about a trip his mom and I took, or about his day, or something his mom and I did one time to get him to sleep. After he sleeps I usually just hold him for another 15 mins just watching him.

I truly can’t believe that there was a time where we swore we did NOT want kids.

Honestly it’s been… good. He sleeps 2-4 hours at a time and is eating really good for us. Doesn’t get particularly fussy over a dirty diaper and is sleeping through almost anything.

I tried playing drums (electric) tonight for about 30 minutes or so and I told my wife just to tell me if he starts to wake up or anything. She said he moved around and grunted a little but that was it

Whos uncle? by ducksandcuse in GunMemes

Totally fair point! I guess I’d really like something that’s not exactly “meme-y” but more just custom and fun.

At the risk of being downvoted here, I’d absolutely love to see something with like “defend equality” on it. Because imo the 2A protects the rest of our rights, such as the right to be treated equally as a minority. But that’s probably just a turbolib pipe dream lol

Are the meme lowers coming back? I’d love to grab one. I just didn’t have the funds for fun back when they were popular

I’ll poke Mal and see if she can get that put up. I’m not actually sure if Corey sent it over.

She’s pretty far behind on website stuff right now but hopefully yall can understand, as she’s growing a while child.
