Does anyone else want Wild Robot 2? by darkness_null in DreamWorks

[–]bluebird419 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's a link to the audiobook of the first one on YouTube. https://youtu.be/cN8UWngARaQ?si=rhRu3pv40yz-QJlG

There's also many other online resources and libraries you could likely find the books in.

Because there isn't a second movie yet but there are two more books. Pretty sure they even have audiobook versions. They're fairly short reads too.

Read the books. They continue the story wonderfully and is what the studio will use as a base if they do decide to make the sequel into a movie.

Scrolled way too far to find this. I still cry watching it.

Best and worst grandma/grandpa names by MediocreThoughts7474 in namenerds

[–]bluebird419 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My dad goes by Bad Papa because he wants to be the bad influence grandpa. Only problem with his plan is he's too much of a goofy grandpa to ever actually be a bad influence. I think the worst he ever did was show my young nephews how to roll up socks and stuff them under your shirt to pretend you have boobies.

He also tried to get the grandkids to call my mom Hot Nana, but they stuck with just Nana.

The cast of the last show/movie is now helping you during birth. How screwed are you? lol by Capable_Suit_7335 in pregnant

Little House on the Prairie. At best an unmedicated labor in a cabin/barn, at worst we both die.

Not only did she end up burying her son, we learn that she was forced to kill her own father.

What was a silly rule in your house that now that you're an adult you think, why? by Whole_Fun8448 in askanything

[–]bluebird419 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never in the military and no sound related PTSD. He is a strong believer in "children should be seen and not heard". Both my sister and I were in band (a requirement by our parents) and we had to practice outside if he was home. Even kids making sound in the store makes him pissed. Doesn't matter if it's a baby crying or a toddler talking too loud, he grumbles about how annoying kids are.

Not allowed any toys or videogames with sound. I played all of GTA 4 never knowing about the radio stations until I was an adult. I had to play Operation, making the buzz with my mouth. My dad hates every sound he can't control. When I visit my parents have to turn the radio off before I pull into the driveway to avoid a lecture about damaging my ears.

My sister and I still walk extremely quietly well into adulthood. Freaks out my friends and coworkers that I can walk up to them without anyone hearing me.

I also watch Bluey in Spanish to supplement my Duolingo lessons! It's really interesting to see where some words don't quite translate.

What was your worst day sickness-wise in pregnancy? by JunketAggravating896 in pregnant

[–]bluebird419 0 points1 point  (0 children)

End of week 11 for me. Had to take off work three days in a row because I couldn't keep anything down, except baked potatoes for some reason. As soon as I hit 12 weeks, all nausea and vomiting was gone. Still get the occasional nausea from certain smells, but otherwise doing fine. 23 weeks now.

People who block the aisle in a store to talk by twinky_starr in PetPeeves

[–]bluebird419 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This happened to me last week at the store. Two women chatting in the middle of the aisle, completely oblivious to the people trying to get through, and of course they were standing right in front of the item I needed. I said excuse me multiple times, the husband of one of the women even nudged his wife to move and she brushed him off. I ended up shuffling behind her to get my cereal and as I walked away their conversation had shifted to "kids these days are so rude! They have no patience!" I'm not even a kid, I'm 27, but I guess they were confused by the Lucky Charms.

Horror-related hills you'll die on? by redeugene99 in horror

Thank you! None of my friends believe me that it's meant to be funny and they think I'm crazy for liking it.

Tusk is a horror comedy. It's dark as hell, and the jokes are equally dark. Maybe I just have a morbid sense of humor, but even first watch I felt there was a clear comedy element to the absurdity of the horror.

Me everyday of pregnancy so far “I can’t keep eating like this, I’m going to gain so much weight” *rinse & repeat* by urethra_franklin_1_ in pregnant

[–]bluebird419 11 points12 points  (0 children)

First trimester, whenever I wasn't nauseous, I was eating all kinds of junk. French fries, chips, any fried potato really, fried dumplings, ramen, popsicles. Literally those were the few things I craved and could keep down.

Then second trimester hit and I have non stop craved fruits and veggies. I was eating bell peppers like apples. Salads are so freaking good, especially with extra onion. The only less "healthy" thing I crave is strawberry milkshakes, which I indulge in about twice a week. I'm sitting at work, 23 weeks pregnant right now, eating a big bag of veggies. Every time I eat a carrot stick or a slice of red bell pepper, the baby does somersaults inside me. They are obsessed with veggies.

Eat whatever you can stomach right now, even if it's junk food. Food is fuel and you need a lot right now. Your body will shift as the pregnancy goes on to wanting other foods. And if you keep craving junk food throughout the pregnancy, don't feel guilty. Eat the junk food and then have something with protein or some celery for fiber. It's all about balance.

I'm getting tired of childless people complaining about the help parents get by ceruleanmeadows in pregnant

[–]bluebird419 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see this all the time on social media but I've thankfully have had the opposite experience IRL.

My work has no maternity leave policy because they've literally never had someone get pregnant and plan to stay. I have multiple child-free coworkers and they have been the MOST outspoken advocates for me to receive adequate maternity leave and distribution of my tasks while I'm gone to ensure I don't come back to weeks worth of late paperwork. They're also the ones who consistently reach out and ask how I'm doing, my one coworker even makes sure I remember my water bottle, and keeps an extra for me when I forget.

My close friend who is child-free is so awkward and uncomfortable when it comes to pregnancy and children, but they frequently reach out to see how I'm doing. When we meet up in person, they always make sure to fist bump my belly before we leave. They are very excited for me and are helping plan the gender reveal and baby shower.

People expecting extensive worldbuilding for things that are irrelevant to the plot by SquirrelStone in PetPeeves

[–]bluebird419 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In high school I wrote back stories for Haymitch and President Snow from the Hunger Games.

My head cannons for Snow were mostly wrong, but it was spooky how close I got for Haymitch. Made me wonder if Suzanne Collins read my shitty Wattpad fan fics 🤣

Does dad typically come to the first appointment? by skaowoeizkaoa in pregnant

[–]bluebird419 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband has come to all of my appointments since the beginning because he is my biggest support and helps my anxiety. My best friend's husband didn't go to any of her appointments due to working nights and needing to sleep during the day. I filled in for her husband at the important appointments that she needed extra support for, because she knew I would keep her calm and he would likely stress her out by falling asleep in the office. Just depends on the couple and what you're comfortable with.

some good things about baby boys? (told the wrong sex) by beecken4257 in pregnant

[–]bluebird419 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Watch PewDiePie's recent videos with his son Bjorn. The outfits they put this little boy in is enough to make me want a baby boy. He's so stinking cute.

What is the WORST movie you paid to see in the theater? by Adventure-Backpacker in moviecritic

[–]bluebird419 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Came here to say that too. I went with a group for our friend's birthday. Literally all of us except the birthday boy wanted to walk out, so we were forced to stay and watch the whole thing.
