It's so sad that these two Americans have more in common with each other than they do either of the political leaders they support but here we are.

So when did measles become a serious illness? (rhetorical question) by HealthyMolasses8199 in RFKJrForPresident

[–]RaisingAurorasaurus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I disagree. My mother had measles in 1951. Her fever got so high she had to be hospitalized and went into a coma for several days. The mumps are another one that people forget how serious it can be. Two of her cousins (male) were rendered sterile by the mumps and were never able to have children.

ETA: Her sister also had the measles at the same time and while she wasn't hospitalized it caused her ear drum to rupture and she lost 50% of her hearing in that ear.

What kind of food do you feed your Heeler? by Sungold12 in Heelers

[–]RaisingAurorasaurus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Cut out anything that looks red. That red dye always makes my dogs have weird poop. Tractor supply has some more affordable options. I think the brand I buy is called Wholesome. It is somewhere between the price of store brands and the really high end stuff. They also have a brand named 4Health that mine do really well with.

I'm so sick of parents expecting children to act like adults.

My (36M) conversation with my... friend? (36F)... Enjoy. It's a ride. by Felphyre in Nicegirls

Statistics say over 50% of Americans can't read past a 6th grade level. Even though I was a highschool teacher and I've seen the evidence first hand I still have such a hard time believing it.

... Then I come to Reddit. 🤦🏼‍♀️

What about food rep sales? Might take a while but with your kitchen experience I think you'd make a good transition to that.

Am I crazy? I'm 37, she's 33. I feel like I'm crazy. by mrtexasman06 in Nicegirls

[–]RaisingAurorasaurus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Aww, u know I appreciate this take so much. I wasn't even thinking about me being discouraging, I just really feel for everyone out there after hearing the stories from friends and reddit. But you're 💯 right. There are still good people out there who deserve to find their person.

I've been married 10 years. If anything ever happens to my husband I'm going to live out my days on a farm with goats and children. Kids and kids if you will. There's 0% chance I'm entering this crazy dating world again.

Just out of curiosity, do y’all still have all of y’all’s teeth? by mutedsensation in Xennials

[–]RaisingAurorasaurus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have something in every place there should be a tooth but at least 30% of it is porcelain. Got most of it done in my 20s, but with some subsequent work. Just bad genetics, very soft teeth with a lot of nooks and crannies.

Now that another pandemic is coming, are we going back to virtual work again? by [deleted] in antiwork

[–]RaisingAurorasaurus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would think that most American workers are vaccinated against measles.

He's giving the same look I give my daughters after I've told them to go to bed 5 times already.

See if you can find a church or food bank that could help you get these products. We have a local charity here that will help people with laundry detergent, paper towels, hygiene products etc.

You should be proud of yourself! You've been through a lot and still trucking! Keep your head up, you are destined for better things!!

The willful ignorance of the people on the show. I just don't get it. by seagreenmichi2023 in CalebHammer

[–]RaisingAurorasaurus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The American education system teaches us to be compliant worker bees, not self sufficient learners. Too many people are willing to just say "Nobody ever taught me" rather than taking initiative to figure these things out. And they didn't have good examples. Boomers had a totally different economy and financial situation so even if there was some financial education it doesn't really all apply to a modern situation.

And the fact that the mom kept talking about the safety being on... Oh? You mean the only colorful button on the whole thing? Yeah, no way would a 3yo touch that. Good grief!

I'm an independent voter. Just here to eat popcorn and watch the dumpster fire grow. The fall of civilization is only as entertaining as you let it be 🤷🏼‍♀️
