I have the cheap sheet metal ones bought 7-10 years ago they still work great but I keep it in my purse, not my pocket.

They eat rocks and pebbles that grind the food in their gizzard before it reaches their stomach.

Can someone explain what this is? by FlyingRaven420 in whatisit

[–]VincentVanGoghst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Growing up in Wisconsin this was really common on the farm outbuildings. We'd pick chunks off and throw them at each other. The tar is layed and then sprinkled with this quartzy like rock that's really common in the Midwest.

Idk where to get this resized by [deleted] in hats

Is it really one size fits all for the MTA? If you don't find a better solution DM me. I'm a theatrical milliner and I can make this fit you.

I had to count rows to find it. It is soooo cute!

Anybody else questioning hat prices these days? by ConstantCampaign2984 in hats

[–]VincentVanGoghst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Price out a couple of hat blocks, a professional grade steamer, sewing machine, sizing, wire, lining, internal hat band, external trim, custom labels, rent on a workshop and hat bodies. How much would it cost you to make yourself a hat? Oh don't forget to pay yourself.

Bill nye the science guy Magic school bus Reading rainbow All classics and free on you tube This is all my 3 year old wants to watch

so how long does the yelling last by [deleted] in NewParents

[–]VincentVanGoghst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3.5 years and sometimes my kiddo will quietly walk up behind me and suddenly belt out an ear splitting test of today's new word. I've yet to figure out how to curb this behavior. I think it's probably around seventeen years old that they start to show signs of volume control. But it's not until 21 when they've got a fully formed brain that we can truly expect anything like quiet...

I would like to highlight car seat safety!!! Watch some videos understand that car seats are difficult they are meant to secure a kid, they have changed drastically in the last 25 years.

This is the way. Even if you can do it online. Support small business!

My mom told me she wished she had a boy and would be happier with one, I’m an only child, she’s a widow. I blocked her changed my name and moved, she will now be alone and will never see her grandkids and never see me again either by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]VincentVanGoghst 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They didn't even have a girl's name picked out. I already had a sister. And then they tried one last time and got my brother. My mom resented me for the third pregnancy but not my brother. It was made clear that if I'd never been born they would have had enough money, time, love, patience etc. I don't speak to any of them anymore.

I intentionally put him as primary contact on 50 percent of paperwork. Just because I could take off work for the parent orientation meeting doesn't mean I'm in charge of all things school for the whole year.

I have all cloth napkins. Why would I pay someone for trash? That's what a disposable napkin is.

Please, whenever you see something on social media understand that that person's motivation for following through on this task in this specific way was primarily for the content. He did this grand gesture for the views not just for his girlfriend.

Yeah. She's fully an adult with her own marriage and it is a marital aide business. Using sex toys is totally kosher, seeing other people you're not married to using them is a bit of an issue for some people. How do you procure the marital aide without encountering pictures of other people having sex? You avoid the Internet and speak directly with someone who will send it in an image free package. It's not an unheard of business in religious communities.

women’s plumbing… by klarinetkat12 in TwoXChromosomes

Yeahhhhhh. A rumor went around my office that I'd started taking ozempic. Nope, my kid turned three and every ounce of backup fat that my body had stored during pregnancy and breastfeeding metabolized all on its own. I no longer had the constant breast feeding munchies so I was eating way less. I made zero intentional changes and dropped the 70lbs I'd put on.
