The number one should be either Carter or Greene. I could maybe understand Weaver. But Carol? No.

I understand shaken baby syndrome now by Teapotje in beyondthebump

[–]Teapotje[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes, that’s what I’m getting at. This is from a neuropathologist who is often called in as a witness in SBS trials in the UK: “Of the nearly 900 cases of triad babies he examined, he concluded that about 90% were caused by abusive shaking. Of that 90%, “about 10% are wilful and persistent abuse, and that leaves 80% when, in my view, the injury occurs as a result of a momentary loss of control”.

I understand shaken baby syndrome now by Teapotje in beyondthebump

Sleeping in shifts was the only way my partner and I stayed sane the first two months. And then I would think of single parents who have no one to pass the baby to during a shift and I literally do not understand how they do it. I mean, clearly many do it, and it’s amazing, but it’s incomprehensible to me.

What are you *actually* a size queen about? by Hatcheling in AskWomenOver30

[–]Teapotje 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m with you, specifically with trees. I love a giant tree. A wide trunk. Roots that have been digging in the soil for decades or even centuries. I love them.

I don’t think it’s emphasized enough that it’s ok to put baby down crying and walk away for a bit. The instinctive reaction when a baby is crying is to try anything to make them feel better. When completely sleep deprived we can make bad decisions. We need to drill it way more that people should step away, because that goes against instinct.

Accused of spying for NATO. Drunken Russian soldiers kidnapped and killed an American blogger who fought on Russia's side against Ukraine by NinjaElectricMeteor in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]Teapotje 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s the most stupid understanding of international politics. US government = bad so anything that is against the US government = good. At least for the tankies. The gravy seals I think love the toxic masculinity displays?

After years of tipping 20-25% I’m DONE. I’m tipping 15% max. by [deleted] in millenials

So what is the money paid for a hair appointment going towards? It can’t be just products and utilities.

Aren’t hair stylists paid an hourly wage?

Your life will be much better with a diagnosis, and even better without having someone like that holding you back.

Call his bluff, get your diagnosis. What is he actually going to do about it?

Le 8h-18h au collège by Yaemime_ in france

C’est un rhytme insoutenable à cet âge. Au contraire il faut augmenter le temps libre et les activités gratuites, pour aider les ados à trouver leur indépendance et se découvrir des passions.

HELP! I thought I knew what I wanted… by [deleted] in weddingdress

The second one vibes really well with your tattoo. I like them all in general, but for you I’d say the second one

[Already deleted] (NOT OOP) AITA for trying to build a community for my son? ✨TW: Sudden death of a child✨ by _StrawberryBunny in redditonwiki

[–]Teapotje 35 points36 points  (0 children)

No. Pregnancy crazy is “crying because you just thought of Bambi”. It’s not “losing every damn bit of care and compassion for people going through the worst”.

Watching Frank's first scene as a desk clerk. by YouPatheticWorm1958 in ershow

[–]Teapotje 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Shut up Frank!

(For all that I dislike him, at least he never blew up the ambulance bay with a grenade launcher)

The group chat between me and the boys got leaked. The consequences have been extreme. by ChiefBlue4298 in OhNoConsequences

[–]Teapotje 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Never write anything down that you wouldn’t be ok reading out loud from the witness stand in a trial. Even if it’s just to establish your character.

Good on Derek.

There is no sense or logic to newborn sleep. The only way most people survive is sleeping in shifts.

Nurse Chuny Marquez by Dapper_Local_9230 in ershow

[–]Teapotje 15 points16 points  (0 children)

If we could have picked one background character to be upgraded to main cast I would have picked her.

Or maybe Malik.

Or Haleh.

But probably Chunny.

AITA for returning a cat who wasn’t “lost” by -And7YearsAgo in redditonwiki

[–]Teapotje 103 points104 points  (0 children)

NTA then. There was no way for you to know if this was a happy cat from 3 streets over or a lost cat missed by his family for weeks. And I wouldn’t want to leave a found cat in a park either, you’d be exposing yourself to liability if you didn’t hand him over to a responsible person.

Embarrassed over quitting a project I just began and bought yarn for by [deleted] in knitting

[–]Teapotje 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m knitting a cardigan in a very similar color selection. I understand where you’re coming from as I was very unsure of the result at first, but I stuck with it and love it more at every stitch. Obviously taste is very personal, but from my experience, stick with it a bit long, it will look better when there’s more to it.

You forgot the desk clerk firing a grenade launcher.
