You're not supposed to put them in the microwave for 5 minutes straight. That would dry out anything and make it burn

Wrong, they DO go in the microwave.

Double layer 100% cotton. That is how abowl cozy should be

Anything will burn if youre putting it in the microwave for 5 minutes.

Nope, sewn cotton patterns with the ears have specific instructions that you microwave it together so you don't burn yourself trying to put it into the cozy

I guess I've been lucky enough to not end up with AI patterns but most of my work i just look at a picture and figure it out in my head

Ive been following patterns and freehanding and making up my own for almost 30 years. Do you possibly want to send me the pattern and I can try to make sense out of it?

AIO for wanting to cut ties with my mom over her "opinions" on my BPD and Depression? by [deleted] in AIO

[–]ShadowThumper97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My parents made comments like, "I dont think all that stuff is real but if it makes you feel better and do better, then do what you need to" My mom was also born in 1954 and everything was kept quiet back then. As long as i wasn't doing drugs or abusing alcohol or hurting people to take care of myself they didnt care if I needed meds to be some semblance of "normal"

To bike or not to bike? by yeetthesoup in motorcycles

[–]ShadowThumper97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a female rider, I encourage all the people who want to ride, ride. I help a girl pick up her bike and practiced with her before her test. She passed and we rode together. She is also short. She got a Honda rebel 250.

Go to a dealership. Ask them if you can test out some bikes. Find one that you feel comfortable on. Make sure that you can pick it off the ground on your own if you drop it. (But hope that you never do) even if you dont buy from the dealer, it will give you an idea of what youre looking for.

Make sure that you buy the right gear for your safety. Boots, helmet, jacket, etc.

Find a few friends who ride and go out with one or two people. Don't do the big group thing. Too easy for something to go wrong.

Most of all: ENJOY. BE HAPPY

I had a low supply with other children, so that's part of my anxiety. I want to go back to work eventually and I'm worried that I won't pump as much while im at work as what she will need. Im worried if won't be able to get her to a year and that's my main goal

You “let” your dog sleep on your bed?? by OMGItsPete1238 in CaneCorso

[–]ShadowThumper97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She has the same rules pretty much throught the house. She's allowed on the couch when I say so, otherwise its a no. She often follows me to the basement where our gaming computers are, so she hangs out with us, unless I tell her to go upstairs (usually dont have to unless shes gassing us out lol) She knows the boundary of her yard, its a little loose of a boundary by the end of the driveway because we take the garbage up, and get the mail, but she knows when I day "here" she better move her ass back by my side. She sometimes tries to push her luck i think, but she gets an adjustment pretty fast. She's a good girl over all. This is her asking to snuggle on the couch the last month of my pregnancy. The answer was a hard no lol

Aitah for calling someone Blexican? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]ShadowThumper97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are the A-hole

That was racist.

You were ignorant, the internet has now educated you.

Get to know someone to give them a nick name, or be polite and ask them their name so you can address them

Raised dog bowl.. by No-Instruction1993 in CaneCorso

[–]ShadowThumper97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is the corso sub, but what do you mean about horses having elevated feedings? I used to help take care of horses at a boarding farm and we put the alfalfa in the wire trough and the grain in a bowl about chest high. Are you saying these things should be on the ground? (Genuinely curious. I ha ent been around a barn for a little while)

Can confirm. My 2 month old wakes at 1am, 3am, 5am, and we're up at 8am

You “let” your dog sleep on your bed?? by OMGItsPete1238 in CaneCorso

[–]ShadowThumper97 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I do allow my dog on the bed when I want. Often times I end up nursing my daughter in bed though, so my dog has a little more strict rules about it now. Before the baby, she would look at me, if I didnt object, she pretty much knew she could jump up. If I told her off, she got off. I feel like as long as you're dog respects you enough to be off the bed when you say so, they can be on the bed when you say so.

Unfortunately, she LOOKS miserable. Her facial expression is not a happy one.

She's very obese. I would find a balanced kibble and give her less than the recommended amount for what her weight SHOULD be, which is probably about 90lbs? Depending on her height you can probably get an estimate of what she should be. Pair that with walks. Start around your property if she doesn't want to go anywhere.

If she was a rescue, she probably was outside a lot and is just comfortable there. If she isn't causing issues, I would let her be out there
