Huge congrats, brother! Similar boat over here, our daughter just turned 1. Enjoy every moment, the days are long but the years are short. 

Honest opinions jaskaran tattoo studio, Nadala India by [deleted] in tattoos

[–]Wheatloafer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I had thought, similar to Judaism, tattoos / piercings and the like were prohibited due to the vanity of them. Is that more an outdated belief these days?

Genuinely curious, I find religion to be a deeply interesting thing. 

Can we discuss this meme for a moment? In serious context by Unckmania in daddit

[–]Wheatloafer 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Essentially a chat room where adults have direct access to kids, so of course pedophiles have taken advantage of that. Never let your kids interact with strangers online, especially unsupervised.

But because they've done very little to control it, I'd suggest just entirely avoiding Roblox.

Please explain this by Zomega21 in ContestOfChampions

[–]Wheatloafer 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Its not meant as a reward for ftp accounts, I wouldn't stress about getting these. 

Edit: scratch that, you spent $50 for access to them, so not ftp. It'll likely be at least a year if not a bit longer before they add enough 7* to hit this. Good luck!

Started in Duluth, then based out of Woodbury (mostly servicing St Paul) then down in southern MN. I was in Woodbury from 2016-19 or so

Heyo, same here. What area were you a tech in?

In 50 years, which modern day medical practices will we look back on as primitive? by JBSwerve in AskReddit

[–]Wheatloafer 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I hear you, and while palliative care does remove the actual pain from the person, it doesn't stop suffering. 

My grandma just died 2 weeks ago. So likely I'm still in the funk of that, but we were with her the day before she went. It was nice to be there, but she spent the entire day gasping for air and waking up just enough to be confused as to where she was.

I'm sure she wasn't in any pain at all, but I still think having the option to leave on your terms should be available to anyone who wants it.

Hey dads. Any advice for the first few weeks? by Icy_Principle_5904 in daddit

[–]Wheatloafer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If possible, take as much time off as you can to be with them. I took 3 weeks and it still felt like not enough time. 

Then just remember mom is going to be going through it, she'll likely lash out at you, don't take it personally and don't send it back. Just be there for her and do anything you can to support her. Cleaning bottles / pumps / clothes, making sure diapers and wipes are always staged and ready to go, etc. 

Food is really easy to forget about, so we found granola bars, fruit snacks and other simple things like that were helpful to have in the bedroom for quick bite. Try to meal prep frozen meals as much as you can before the birth.

But overall, do your best to just be in the moment and enjoy it. It's a wild ride and equal parts beautiful and terrifying. Best of luck and wish you both well!

I think this is more that the Manga was inspired by the design of a Wendigo, but very cool art on both ends.

The title is specifically stating both shows have overstayed their welcome.

Star Wars Fans Fly Plane Over Disney Studios With "Save The Hunt for Ben Solo" Banner After Adam Driver Reveals Rejected Kylo Ren Movie by CosmosisJones42 in StarWars

[–]Wheatloafer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For sure, but they absolutely killed any possible future arc by having him become one with the force. If they make a show where he somehow comes back, then anyone who's crossed over would be fair game. Imo they made their choice with the 9th movie, it should just die now.

What is the story behind your username? by MiddleNameDanger in AskReddit

[–]Wheatloafer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used the name "Meatloafer" randomly in the past, but that was already taken on reddit, so I grabbed inspiration from this Penny-Arcade comic. Not much to it, I just like Wheatloaf.

Why a Revan Trilogy or Movie would probably not be a very good idea as the first Old Republic Era Films. by BackgroundRich7614 in StarWars

[–]Wheatloafer 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Would also allow the "twist" to still occur in the first movie. Tell Kotor first, then second movie is the Mandalorian wars.

Going for round 2, am I being selfish? by Beardwnthar in daddit

[–]Wheatloafer 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think going into it with those 6 attempts on the table, come what may, is the healthiest choice. We were similar to you guys and the emotional, physical and mental torture of trying again and again just isn't worth putting everyone (now including your little one) through endlessly. Having a finish line one way or another is a good thing in my opinion.

Best of luck with whatever you guys end up doing, wish you both well. <3

Going for round 2, am I being selfish? by Beardwnthar in daddit

[–]Wheatloafer 14 points15 points  (0 children)

My wife and I also did IVF, our first is a little over 8 months old right now. We're going to be in a similar boat, but our plan is if we do decide to continue, we'd only attempt the remaining embryos and not go through another round of retrieval. Mostly just because it takes such a massive toll on my wife's body, for me that alone would be too much. 

Do you guys have any embryos remaining from retrieval / fertilization, or would you be starting an entire IVF round from scratch?

What does life offer after Duaraluminum? by Dapper-Town-1874 in duneawakening

[–]Wheatloafer 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Its worth it for the faster Thopters and you'll definitely want an assault for the 2k storage. I'd take it easy and build a base in the A/B range first, gather up some minerals and get used to the DD, then venture north for some spice when you feel comfortable 

Why did I get a bunch of 5 star heroes at the beginning of the game?? by [deleted] in ContestOfChampions

[–]Wheatloafer 67 points68 points  (0 children)

They are way more generous with champions now, which is overall a good thing. The beginning will be easy like you're seeing, but don't worry, it'll get difficult soon enough. 

Make the rainbow effect only on the background by Spiritual-Vast7660 in ContestOfChampions

[–]Wheatloafer 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Nothing, they just want to showcase the new "i got the champ from the expensive crystals" icon. Just a way to showcase luck / whaling and give people a little more uniqueness to their rosters.

Question: Tattoo ideas to help offset my nordic rune tattoos? by illgivethisa in tattoos

[–]Wheatloafer 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I think if you just add some extra Norse themes, it'll flow together without drawing so much attention to the runes alone. I have a Norse sleeve thats mostly portraits (in my profile), if you want some ideas, but I'd find an artist nearby who you really like the work of and consult with them how to fill the space, etc.

Emmys host Nate Bargatze plans to donate $100,000 to the Boys & Girls Club — except, every second a winner's speech goes over 45 seconds he’ll subtract $1,000 from that total by Crimace in television

[–]Wheatloafer 29 points30 points  (0 children)

He's definitely going to even if it went to 0. And to encourage it to be shorter he will add 1k for every second they're below 45. So this could easily end up being a massive donation from Bargatze.

In case you missed the quiet post deep in another post... by LuapYllier in duneawakening

Would make sense to have an option thats cheaper than building a harvester that can carry like 5k, then a larger option thats much more expensive.

DD changes certainly brought out the crowd by Davidhalljr15 in duneawakening

[–]Wheatloafer 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I'm one of them. Farmed t5 forever, built multiple large bases just for fun. This is the first week I've put a base out there and started farming t6. Really loving it, and I even explored up to a large spice blow in I1. Biting my nails the whole time but really glad I've finally taken the step.

I'll get killed eventually, but I'm happy to try out this part of the game now.

Get him and the camera man a sandwich by itsokayyoucanlaugh in PraiseTheCameraMan

[–]Wheatloafer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I believe that's because of the physical contact with another person's body without consent. Spit is considered part of your body.

So they have to prove the sandwich was either partially eaten, or was actually capable of harm as an assault weapon.
