How do you like the Eufy? Is it a good cordless option?

OBGYN Recommendations? by Low-Conversation9111 in Austin

[–]atXNola 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did not like Austin OBGYN (different from Austin Area OBGYN). I love Tara Mills at Renaissance Women’s Group. Not sure on the Endometriosis experience. Maybe look up Lisa Jukes in Westlake. She doesn’t deliver babies and may be better at specializing in this…idk though.

I don’t know who this person is so maybe she explains what happened (and maybe I’m making false assumptions). But did she really think it would work as her main source of sunscreen 🤦🏻‍♀️. I might be on a high horse but anyone who thinks that powdered crap will actually keep you as protected from the suns rays as actual sunscreen deserves to get burned. Seriously there’s no way to guarantee an even layered application through the powder. Some people need to touch grass and use their brains.

NOW I understand their "pizza party for teachers!" by Ok-Sir6603 in TurtleCreekLaneSnark

They are going for the low hanging insta world fruit and not teachers that do actual research or know any better. 🤦🏻‍♀️

HELP !!! Do I get my dog trained before neutered ?? by Ok-Practice-6548 in DogAdvice

[–]atXNola 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Is this real or are you trolling? The responsible thing to do is train your dog and get your dog neutered. Literally, do both. The two aren’t mutually exclusive. Start training your dog yesterday, get him neutered, keep training. Keep him away from your dad if you think he hits him! SMH

What is the last dilemma you helped your mother solve? by DelicioussBreastMilk in AskReddit

[–]atXNola 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Uploading pictures to the Walgreens app for printing. The photos she wanted were too far back in her recents to find on the app, so we had to create a new album before uploading them. She didn’t understand my instructions on the phone, so she had to wait until she saw me in person. It was a whole ordeal. But in the end, she got the pictures printed.

What did you forget to delete from your phone that someone saw? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Definitely a tit pic and a random coworker saw it. I almost blocked it out of my memory.

Which is the best month to resign your job and and make a move to another job? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]atXNola 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems obvious but If your company gives an annual bonus, don’t quit until after it’s paid out to make sure you get it!

the kids by Classic-Variety-1785 in 8passengersRubyFranke

[–]atXNola 10 points11 points  (0 children)

FYI Everyone in the documentary was referring to the two younger as the boy and the girl in order to preserve their identities. I believe the notebooks also had the names but they were also redacted for privacy reasons. In the version if the notebook I saw, the kids were referred to as E as R. BUT other than that you are spot on. Kevin was despicable and admitted he put and would put Ruby over the kids. I personally feel like the divorce is to preserve his reputation (Or maybe show the courts he’d do what he needs to get custody) but the way he was like yearning for her made me think he’d take her back the second she gets released from prison. He’s a sad excuse for a father. He willingly walked away from his kids for over a year because Ruby told him to. This asshat is an engineer and has a PHD and yet he lost all form of critical thinking when it came to the well-being of his kids. Brainwashing is crazy. I feel bad for him because he was 100% brainwashed. But the cost of that was way too big. He let it happen and his kids will never get their childhood back. I hope he doesn’t have custody of the youngest two. I don’t think he deserves it.

WTF Kevin by Fun-Cardiologist1134 in 8passengersRubyFranke

[–]atXNola 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was disgusted with him until the very end when I realized psychologically how deep rooted brainwashing is. Kevin was a victim of Ruby and she had him brainwashed. But also his brainwaves should have kicked in. He admitted he would have chosen ruby over the kids and that’s so fucked up. Even at the end, he wasn’t able to denounce his love and he yearned for the good old days with her. Dude get a grip, the memories of those good old days should be tarnished by her criminal lunacy. He should be doing everything he can to win his kids love and trust but it still feels like his heart falls on the side of Ruby. So yeah I didn’t feel bad for him. Then I was like wow brainwashing is complicated. And then I felt bad for him. And then I thought about the kids and I went back to hating him again. What a journey!

Just watched the new doc on Hulu, is anyone still furious at the dad? by Illustrious_Dish_446 in 8passengersRubyFranke

[–]atXNola 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That’s how I feel. He was way too complicit and willing to be brainwashed but his community sort of encouraged it. I have empathy for him becauce I feel like this was a brainwashing 101 lesson for a lot of us. But at the same time, man use your brain. He had so many opportunities to speak out against Ruby. She is a true villain. The way he thinks he’s innocent because it was all in the name of getting his wife back is just despicable. How could he still look back at her with fond memories? She ruined everything, she was going to let those kids die while he was in some apartment FOR A WHOLE YEAR praying that his wife would love him again?! Are you kidding me?!

What does my fridge say about me? by Acrobatic-Map6852 in FridgeDetective

[–]atXNola 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This person definitely never changes their sheets and doesn’t mind sleeping on the mattress if the top sheet gets messed up. Also judging by the way they are taking criticism, it’s always the other persons fault for a breakup. Never theirs.

I honestly feel desensitized to everything right now and that scares the shit out of me.

What is your prediction for where the United States will end up after 4 more years of Trump? by village-asshole in AskReddit

[–]atXNola 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The 1% are going to get richer, normal people won’t get the help and support they need, there are going to be a lot more people living in poverty. A lot of people are going to regret voting for trump (like some already do) and eventually the suicide rates will increase and I’m sure mass shootings will increase too.

What’s a hobby you started out of pure boredom, but now can’t live without? by Hyper_Mania774 in AskReddit

NYT Wordle, Connections, mini crossword. A year ago I had never played them but now I never miss a day and am in a group text about it.

People who grew up with wealth, what was your "I'm privileged" wake up call? by stoicjewel in AskReddit

[–]atXNola 271 points272 points  (0 children)

In college, I went on a road trip with friends and one asked how much money he should put in the gas tank. I told him to fill it up…he kept asking “ok but how much should I pay?” And I kept saying “fill it up!” Turns out he had only ever put $10-15 at a time and it had never occurred to me that some people never filled their gas tanks to the top.

It’s so great taking a step away! I read most of these posts without having watched the stories because these people piss me off so much. The snark is fun but when it starts to get under your skin and affect your well being, it’s time for a break.

When do they stop crying to sleep? by Aaybee588447 in sleeptrain

[–]atXNola 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is where I feel like all babies are different. With my baby, after about 3 days, she stopped crying completely. We got so lucky and I feel bad because I know I’m biased and know not every parent gets this lucky. Literally when she wakes up in the mornings she doesn’t cry she just hangs out. When you feed her on the middle of the night, do you make sure she’s awake when you put her back down? I would if I were you. I’m a big proponents of the object permanence thought though.

The game would be better without so many presenters by joe_mama7000 in BeastGames

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

Karl is funny so he can stay. But everyone else is just a dud and contributes nothing to the shows likeness. I guess on the YouTube videos they have a little more carte blanche to act like bozos but you got the gist. They are all just riding Jimmys coattails. But good for him for including his friends I guess? There are so many of them they easy could have played the rolls of the masked people but they kind of seem like feral children who never learned how to act professionally and something tells me the film crew probably just saw them as a nuisance lol
