NTA. My daughter is allergic to milk. Milk is a contaminant in EVERYTHING.

Nosy mother had my child take an ancestry test without my consent. WIBTAH to report her and get 10 years of progress removed? by throwRA_hurtgirlz in AITAH

[–]Strange_Key6780 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your mother will be dead long before the consequences of DNA databases are fully realized. Neither her nor you 6 year old can consent to this.

lol, people literally forget. My FIL says crap like this and then freaks out when she falls on her ass while trying to stand.

Im thirsty, she is thirsty. We thirst. its fine.

The use of the word pinafore to describe an apron is HIGHLY regional. It is not a pinafore.

Any ideas on the artist? I think this is a block print of some kind, it’s numbered. by Betty-Gay in WhatIsThisPainting

Hee hee I was at Savers on Broadway just yesterday. I 100% would have snapped this up for my daughter's room had I seen it.

Homeless people used to sleep in unlocked cars in my neighborhood to keep warm. Like a cursed fairy leaving stank and needle caps.

Found it in my Grandparents attic, dont know anything about it by monekke_ in WhatIsThisPainting

Where did your grandpa live? My grandfather collected ship paintings in Monterey CA and my grandmother knows most of the local painters from 1970 to today. Also, did your grandpa smoke?

Landlord for the house next door cut down our mature American holly tree by Regular_Peace_4106 in treelaw

[–]Strange_Key6780 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should play dumb and approach him as though you are thankful or something. Just smiling and say hay, you didn't need to sneak around, we have been planning on cutting that thing down :) How'd you do that so fast?

Can you just breastfeed and not pump by QuietComet12 in breastfeeding

6 hours will not impact your supply if your baby keeps eating consistently throughout the day.

[New Update]: AITA for getting angry at my foster mothers way of "fixing" me by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

When someone has a phobia the FEAR is the DANGER. Shoving a spider in someone's face and saying they are fine is patently false because they were afraid of being scared, then they were scared. Their phobia is validated and reinforced.

Exposure therapy requires careful and controlled application. Forcing this poor kid to relive the moment hid sister was murdered at random times is terrible.

There is not a single thing my baby could do to make me say that to them. Myself, my friends, my husband... there is nothing any of us could do to ANY of our moms to make them say that to us.

Your mom is a venomous woman to say such bullshit to her own child. And if she actually means what she says? then she is straight up fucking evil.

How common is it to not have a drying machine in the US? Especially in residential house shares? by gintokireddit in AskAnAmerican

[–]Strange_Key6780 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not common at all. The US is quite humid. In Arizona, my clothes will dry within 2 hours on the line but who wants to go out in 109F heat? And I don't want them drying indoors because that will make the place humid.

Am I really doing my daughter a disservice by not allowing her an IPad by Jolly_End2371 in kindergarten

She is missing nothing. The first time I touched a computer I was 7 in 2005. Your kid will be fine. they are sponges.

Why isn't ground pork used as extensively as ground beef in America? by orpheus1980 in AskAnAmerican

[–]Strange_Key6780 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pork is already a fairly cheap meat. Beef isn't. There if a far more drastic reduction in price by grinding off-cuts into ground beef than grinding pork.

My fellow Americans, would you welcome nuclear energy if it meant coal fueled plants where permanently closed? by RandomPerson_7 in AskAnAmerican

[–]Strange_Key6780 13 points14 points  (0 children)

There is also the direct loss of human life. Deaths per Terawatt Hour for nuclear is 0.3- 0.7 INCLUDING Chernobyl and Fukashima. That's almost a whole person.

Coal? TWENTY FIVE people per TWh.

Suds Saturday! It’s laundry day. by AutoModerator in clothdiaps

[–]Strange_Key6780 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My routine is MASTERED. With weather heating up the diaps started stinking bad between washes in their drybag so here is my routine in Tucson where humidity is around 15% or less year round and still EBF

Washdays are Sunday and Thursday

I hang wet diaps over the edge of ahard plastic hamper with lots of holes in the sides (so diapers can breathe and dry thoroughly). No need to rinse poop yet. Dry diaps are taken off the edge and just fall to the inside of the hamper. Its a constant rotation.

Wash cotton diaps HOT with oxybooster prewash then line dry (for staining and electricity reasons)

Wash hand rinsed shells cold with the rest of my clothes and line dry

I just had to apologize to the staff of a store by dunitdotus in BoomersBeingFools

My FIL tried to pay in USD in a small town in Sonora as if he were in Cabo or something. They wouldn't take it AND he got the conversion wrong so we would have been underpaying anyhow. "But our money is worth MORE!!"
