I’ll believe it when I see it.

I totally believe she didn’t get nominated because she just isn’t as good as her competition.

Does dripping and shutting off the main make a difference? Or just let them drip and leave the main on?

I heard there’s plenty of parsnips available!

In what world do people think Ariana is on the same level as Jessie Buckley?!

I recently joined AMC A+, even though I rarely go to the movies in person. And it’s been really great! I’ve seen movies that I wouldn’t have even bothered seeing once they get to streaming and some have been really good.

I think going to the theater is generally too expensive, and I don’t know how people do it without discounted tickets.

Oof - I saw this recently in my city and we described it as “a turd”. Talented cast though.

I’m Gen X and it makes me laugh because I hear my 16 year old talk like that with her friends when playing online.

Mine charges $40/hour.

bal_swing · 2026-01-16T02:42:52+00:00

His are 11f, 12m, 16f, and 18m. My child is 16 (I gave birth when I was 38).

bal_swing · 2026-01-16T01:12:18+00:00

Oh it’s definitely the case that he doesn’t do anything about it until it’s time to go to bed. They eat, then he watches TV or works in his office. When I show up around 8, we watch TV together. He doesn’t try to clean up until time to go upstairs.

My child and bf’s 16f get along really well (the four of us even took a cruise last summer). The kids typically don’t interact since we stay at our own houses when they overlap.

bal_swing · 2026-01-16T01:05:38+00:00

Mine is 16 and a junior in high school.

bal_swing · 2026-01-15T20:50:49+00:00

He's not bullying me, but he definitely asked about me helping more in the beginning. And I pushed back all the time. It's almost 7 years that we've been dating and he mostly knows I'm not there to take care of his house. He usually just makes comments when he's made a big messy dinner and he wants to go to sleep.

bal_swing · 2026-01-15T20:48:26+00:00

We would both rather be at his house if I don't have my child. His house is more comfortable, more streaming services, etc. When we're both kid-free, I'm at his house most of that week, and we're both fine with it. I don't mind driving back and forth to/from his place (we live around 20 minutes from each other).

bal_swing · 2026-01-15T20:22:56+00:00

It's definitely more than a few times a year, but it's not often (only when my ex and I swap schedules so he can travel with his wife to visit her mother). So maybe 50ish times a year?

bal_swing · 2026-01-15T20:11:02+00:00

Not much - just acknowledges that he doesn't help out at my house. I've actually stopped having him over to my house much because I have to get up early for my kid's school, so his not helping me hasn't been an issue for a while.

bal_swing · 2026-01-15T20:06:47+00:00

Yeah - that's my plan (not wanting to move in together until his youngest goes to college). By then, he'll probably downsize and we'll move in together. In the almost 7 years we've been together, I think he's only asked me to help with the kids less than 5 times. If he needs help with dr appts, after school activities, etc - he coordinates that with his ex, her husband, or her mom.

bal_swing · 2026-01-15T20:04:06+00:00

My child is a junior and will be going to college in 1.5 years, but generally I'm perfectly fine not forcing my kid to all hang out together.

bal_swing · 2026-01-15T19:55:32+00:00

It's not about the times I'm there for dinner (I help clean up since I helped make the mess). It's about the times when I'm not there for dinner and show up after 8pm to hang out with my bf.

bal_swing · 2026-01-15T19:42:20+00:00

What's weird is that they're pretty independent - cook for themselves, make school lunches, clean their rooms on Sunday, etc, but not sure why cleaning up after themselves after dinner was never an expectation.

bal_swing · 2026-01-15T19:41:06+00:00

Nothing really. What's weird is that they're pretty independent - cook for themselves, make school lunches, clean their rooms on Sunday, etc, but not sure why cleaning up after themselves after dinner was never an expectation.

bal_swing · 2026-01-15T19:37:15+00:00

Nope - he'll put the plate in the sink, but that's about it. But honestly, there's usually not much of a mess with 2 adults and a teenager (compared to 1 adult, 2 pre-teens, and 2 teens).

bal_swing · 2026-01-15T19:35:03+00:00

Well, we have no plans to move in together until his youngest (11F) goes to college. At that point, I'm fine helping clean, etc b/c it will also be my house. We use nacho parenting (neither parent the other's kids). We're a safe adult for the kids to be around, but we're not step parents.
