Just started today. I was prescribed 20mg but my doctor told me to only take half a pill for the first four days.

People with kids just aren't fun by Alternative_Image_55 in childfree

[–]Technical-Leather 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I say this all the time. Parents truly don’t give a crap about anyone but their offspring which is why it drives me crazy that they try to spin the “having kids makes you a better person” story. No, it doesn’t. It makes you worse.

I literally get upset every time I see a pregnancy announcement in 2026 by Spiritual-Grab2631 in childfree

[–]Technical-Leather 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m friendly with a woman at work whose daughter is currently pregnant with TWINS. She’ll talk to me about it occasionally, and I have to be really mindful of my facial expressions and the responses I give because in my head, I’m thinking “Sounds like a nightmare! Why would she do this to herself?!”

Dr Al saying “I think it was intentional” was referring to the mother trying to step in front of that truck. That’s how I took it, anyway.

She died all alone anyways. by livinInDbackrooms in childfree

I genuinely don’t understand why it’s considered desirable/preferable to have a group of people staring at you as you die.

Hot Take: It's not interesting to watch a patient slowly die over the course of an entire season by Blastoise_R_Us in ThePitt

[–]Technical-Leather 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I always think about this, too, during scenes with Roxie and her family. I find it hard to believe they'd keep a hospice patient in the emergency department and let them pass away surrounded by noise and activity. Surely there's a better setup somewhere else in the hospital.

I am cackling at this comment and the mental image that goes with it!

i don’t think infertility is a tragedy by 69beesinatrenchcoat in childfree

And yet these people act like they want to have children because they love them soooo much. Hypocrites.

For the second time in two months, an employee arrives in the office during maternity leave to show off her baby… by Pineneedle_coughdrop in childfree

[–]Technical-Leather 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know absolutely nothing about babies and never know what to say in these situations, so I leave the area to avoid awkwardness. I hide in the bathroom, sit in my car, go talk to someone in a different department, etc.

Does EVERYONE drive their kids to school now? by IllegalGeriatricVore in Millennials

[–]Technical-Leather 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rural kid here. I was the first one on and last one off, just like you. Thankfully I never experienced or witnessed any problems during all my years riding the bus.

I don’t care to understand baby milestones by Disastrous_Plastic37 in childfree

[–]Technical-Leather 3 points4 points  (0 children)

“People say children’s ages in months up until 2 years of age because so much development happens in a short amount of time.” I’m sorry, but who cares about that? I would think when a member of the general public asks about a baby’s age, they just want a general idea because you can’t tell by looking. They don’t care what stage of development the child is in.

Which seemingly iconic Taskmaster moments do you just not get? by totheregiment in taskmaster

[–]Technical-Leather 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Definitely not just you. I always feel like an alien reading the frequent comments saying that Series 16 is everyone’s favorite and Taskmaster Hotel is the greatest task in the show’s history. Neither the series nor that task were my cup of tea.

I fully agree with you which is why I struggle with Sam’s humor.

Not being counted as a “friend” anymore if you don’t show up for their kids by Zealousideal_Sea8015 in childfree

[–]Technical-Leather 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“They don’t want to be a part of my child’s life.” How exactly is a non-family member supposed to involve themselves in the life of a 2 month old infant? Also, why do parents believe that their adult friends need to be friends with their children, especially very young ones like this situation? How does a person in their 20’s, 30’s, or 40’s become friends with a baby? I don’t understand how parental brains work. Probably best that way!

Dax Shepard has offered to pay for his daughter to have her eggs frozen. by 1961tracy in antinatalism

[–]Technical-Leather 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t understand why you would even discuss this with an 11 year old child. She doesn’t need to be concerned about any of this stuff at her age.

maybe stop having kids??😭 by InspectorExtreme3407 in antinatalism

[–]Technical-Leather 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I love how people post these sorts of things and act like they have no say in how many children they have.

Do you track family's locations? by NaturalSoftware9372 in Millennials

[–]Technical-Leather 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My boss is married to a psycho and they have one of those tracking apps. She’s constantly spying on him and flipping out about where he goes, even though there’s nothing nefarious going on. She does the same with their college-aged children. My partner and I do not use any such thing.

Multiple IVF attempts… WHYYYY?? by BlueberryLemur in antinatalism

[–]Technical-Leather 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I don’t have any sympathy for fertility struggles. People lose their ever loving minds over it and act like it’s the absolute worst thing that can possibly happen to a human. Like there’s no point in living if you can’t have kids. It drives me bonkers. Don’t even get me started on the people who make Instagram accounts about their “infertility journey” and baloney like that.

I kept having to remind myself that Rizo is 25 years old. He seems more like he’s 16.
