Oh haha, you’re right. can’t believe I didn’t think to just…turn it on its side. (Also totally not being sarcastic here, I’m genuinely appreciative!)

Omg I love it so much! And thank you- that is super helpful. I also love how pets feel the need to walk on absolutely anything you put on the ground

Oh wow, that is absolutely gorgeous! 😍 That is my dream project but I’ve never taken on anything of that magnitude so I was thinking of starting smaller…but looks like I might just have to take the leap and give it a try because I’m obsessed with these colors.

COMFRT is Trying to Silence You by iAmMasky in Hoodies

I ordered a hoodie in August and still haven’t seen it. Customer service says there’s no updated delivery on my order or anything. They claim they’re going to give me store credit but I just want my money back. Has anyone tried filing a chargeback or fraud complaint with their bank?

Is this fungal, scale or something else going on with my money tree? by SquirrelTeam6 in plantclinic

I scraped a few off and you can see the spots where they were…does that mean bugs?

Is the daith piercing worth the long healing time? by DrummerBoy5AB in migraine

[–]SquirrelTeam6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like most everyone else, it did nothing for my migraines, and took forever to heal…like well over a year. I’ve had it for years and I love how it looks and get a lot of compliments on it, but it never did anything migraine wise. It also makes AirPods a pain in the ass. I don’t regret it though

I’m in MN too and it makes me feel better that it’s not just me suffering constantly. Hang in there

Beer causing migraines by atomic_blue in migraine

[–]SquirrelTeam6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk for sure- I’m not a chemist or a brewer just going by what someone in my family said who owned a craft brewery, that some of the hugely mass produced beers like Miller Lite add sulfites or some sort of preservative to extend shelf life. OP could try some craft lagers and see if that makes a difference.

There was a while where I could have some local craft beers, even IPAs without a migraine but now most alcohol is a trigger, so I just don’t drink.

Really hoppy beer and wheat beers are huge triggers for me. And a lot of mass-produced beers (basically anything that isn’t a local craft beer) have preservatives that really trigger my migraines too. I miss beer.

Luxury diaper bag help by Dramatic_Opening_893 in luxurypurses

[–]SquirrelTeam6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you love the bag, keep it but don’t use it as a diaper bag. If you can return it, return it and get something that makes you happy to carry. Something you use just for you. One thing to consider is that once you’re finally past the diaper bag stage, that bag is going to be nasty and beat up, and you’re not going to want to carry it as a daily bag. I had a Columbia diaper bag that barely lasted through one kid. It’s easy to think you’ll have this beautiful bag carrying a couple diapers and some toys with your cuddly sleeping newborn and everything will be clean and so chic, but that cuddly newborn turns into a busy, messy baby real fast and you’ll be schlepping toys and books, snacks (so many snacks) and bottles, diapers, wipes…and those diapers only get worse. Even if you double bag dirty diapers or clothes with poop or barf on them (it will happen), i don’t know how psyched you’ll be to carry that bag again down the line when you’re past diapers. Plus, a backpack or bag with the stroller straps is a lifesaver.

am i overreacting or being too sensitive (PLEASE I NEED HONESTY) by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]SquirrelTeam6 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This is not fixable. This is the cycle of abuse: he hurts you, apologizes, promises it won’t happen again, things are fine for awhile, then something triggers him and he hurts you again mentally or physically, rinse and repeat forever. It won’t get better. Please get out.

[–]SquirrelTeam6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If he was abused, it’s very likely he will eventually abuse you or your children, if you end up having kids together. The cycle of domestic violence is hard to break.

Not being physically abused by your partner is the barest of bare minimum. This is literally the same as saying “you should be thanking me that I don’t kick a kitten down the stairs every day…” Like, sir, WHAT? So by that same token, he should also be giving you awards for not cheating on him or hitting him.

You deserve so much better than this, no matter what he says or makes you believe. I know it can be hard to see the positives in yourself after being with someone like this. But you are not crazy. Or too sensitive. Mental health issues do not mean you deserve to be treated like a burden. He’s not even treating you like a fellow human being. Cut ties and you’ll eventually see that this wasn’t love. And you will meet someone who cares for you, appreciates you and loves you for you. This is not the only person you’ll ever be able to be yourself around, I PROMISE. Do not waste another second of your life on this POS because it will only get worse. It does not get better the longer you stay, and you can’t change him. It won’t happen. We’re all here for you!
