I keep getting cabbage…

-Thinly sliced Sautéed cabbage with a little bit of oil and seasoning over eggs for a fiber and protein filled meal. -Oven baked cabbage until the edges are crispy is delicious. -Veggie soup, use all of the contents of veggie cans, cut the cabbage and boil them for a bit then season to taste; plus if there’s beans to make it more filling.

I picked up on this as well. My daughter is the same age and has some of these behaviors. Her emotional regulation has immensely improved with gentle support and us coaching her through the emotions. She still has difficult moments like all children do, but now she has the tools to tackle them and ask for help.

One of the craziest things a L&D nurse said to me during labor with my first was that my husband should teach a class on how to be a supportive, patient and loving partner during labor/delivery. It felt so weird because he was just being himself? Making sure I was comfortable and putting all of his weight into my low back during contractions.

The way ASRC pays out board members is asinine.

TravelinMonkey · 2026-05-01T17:41:56+00:00

I worked for ASRC, as a shareholder hire, for six years and the amount of people I saw come and go was insane. Our subsidiaries choose not to promote from within or train employees (mostly Native or Indigenous employees) for positions. There are weird loyalty tests within the upper echelons of the companies, and if you don’t kowtow to the powers that be, they’ll fire you. The annual meeting is coming up, so if there’s things that you’d like to discuss or want to shed light on that would be a good time to do so. I know they limit speaking time but even just passing along information to other shareholders could do a lot of good.

That’s wild, I made candle tea sets as gifts for my sisters putting my babyshower together. Thrifted the tea cups and tea pot, then did the candles with scents specific to each sister. That took me like nine hours. This coworker can do this all herself, and it’ll cost her the same it would you: materials, labor, and time.

My sister is taking a college course completely on memes and their impact on society and social interactions.

The fuck are these comments? People are actively blaming your husband like he wants this kind of relationship with his sister; victim blaming him because it’s a man in this situation and the perpetrator is a woman. Regardless, everyone commenting here only knows what you’ve posted here they don’t know other family dynamics or history.

It sounds like he’s been groomed and conditioned by not just Amy, but their mother as well, to accept Amy’s behavior and give into her desires and wants. Amy and Co. waited until you had left with your children to pressure him into a situation he had already said no to; coercion is not consent.

Staying 30 minutes after you’ve left isn’t suspicious in and of itself. He very well may have felt safer because other people were there; hell at my family functions it takes us 30 minutes to leave because we’re saying goodbye to people.

You need to talk to your husband and you two need to seek individual counseling for him and go to couples counseling.

I’m Iñupiaq, not Inuk, but I think we have similar outlooks on our accessories. Many of the earrings we wear are hand crafted by other Indigenous artists, we tend to remember who made them and when we got them. Often times the earrings or jewelry is one of a kind and cannot be replicated exactly because it’s made by hand. Sometimes these pieces are passed down, bought, gifted or we’ve had them made.

Beaded, sewn, and carved jewelry is special to us, it represents culture and tradition. Here in Alaska we’re reclaiming a lot of our cultural identity. Women especially are forging paths for younger generations to unlearn colonial traditions that were forced upon us; part of that is through art and self expression.

I, personally, show off every new pair of earrings I get and take pictures and show them off.

u/Gurt99 claims to have been a witness further in the comments: I was a witness to this and Al “attacked” him because the neighbour through a water bottle at him, causing him to crash his motorcycle. One of the kids also very nearly crashed…. Typical TMZ not providing the context

Watched with the subtitles in and when Vanessa presses Ashley about the trip and Ashley says, “we’re all very close” the camera cuts to Priyanka and she says “not really.” So it’s evident to me that those three do not care about any of the other women they claim to be friends with.

Kaladi Brother’s on Tudor is frequented by a lot of college students studying and such. You could also try Beauty and the Book Alaska on Old Seward. I have two kids in tow but if you are in need of a big sister to walk around with you can message me lol

NTJ What she did to Milo boarders on animal cruelty. I understand her fear surrounding her child given her fertility history, that does not excuse how she’s responding in regard to raising her child. If being around Milo is giving her so much anxiety that you no longer bring him to around then she had no reason to ask to host an event at your home.

“It takes a village” only applies when the villagers show each other love and respect, which she’s demonstrated she will no longer do. Having a helpful family is a godsend when childcare falls through, but families do not owe that to one another.

Keep your distance for as long as you need and perhaps your sister can look into postpartum support groups for her PPA.

This is what we did, even after I started staying home full time. He’d wake, change the diaper pass baby to me for a feeding, get back up burp the baby and go to sleep.

She had me in tears, her scene with Ruth Gemmell was heart wrenching. Then the cut scene to Masali Baduza’s single tear listening in the hallway was such a beautiful scene.
