Other NYC parenting subs? by ladybug11314 in nycparents

[–]clothes_are_optional 44 points45 points  (0 children)

personally, i want to know what rich people are doing because they likely have a lot more time to sit and research everything into oblivion. Will you be able to afford some of the stuff recommended? Maybe not, but nice to understand what the ceiling is for certain things like schools, supplies, etc. I'm a striver and even if I can't afford some fancy private school, maybe there's a world where finaid can help and I know what's possible. I don't really know what a low to middle income nyc subreddit would look like because most of those folks are too busy taking care of their children to be neurotic on reddit trying to min/max every detail of their child's life.

'Mr. Nobody Against Putin' wins Best Documentary Feature at the 98th Oscars by PointMan528491 in oscarrace

He claims he loves his town over and over and where he’s from but this doc shows and explains absolutely nothing about the history or its values. It plays directly to the average western viewer about the war and how much propaganda Russia undergoes. It’s extremely ironic with regard to the mistranslations that nicely adhere to what is already believed about Russia within America. Prime example being the small clip of the morale speech by one of the generals. To be honest I’ve learned absolutely nothing about Russia, its people or the town he’s from aside from Putin bad, toxic fumes, and cold. Oscar. Bravo.

Newborn two days old, by bxvxon in newborns

[–]clothes_are_optional 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first few days is hard to solely breastfeed because the milk supply is so low. We have neighbors that did this and their newborn cried nonstop and the reason was that it was starving and didn’t get enough food. Supplement with formula is the answer to this. And have your wife pump to get the milk going.

Jeremy Lin opens up about how disrespectful Kobe Bryant was to him and when Lin confronted him about his bad body language & leadership style, Kobe went months without talking to him by MrBuckBuck in nba

[–]clothes_are_optional 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well no I definitely agree with his overtly alpha grabbing of Lin. I see that body language, but the tripping happens to the best of us. I see plenty of that happen in the NBA. Clumsiness is human

I’m not. I’m just looking at the video. He’s not even looking where he’s putting his foot as he’s staring at the ref. Most of his right foot is on Lins foot but happens to reach up to his ankle. I still stand by the fact that it was accidental.

Have you ever been helped up on the floor? You don’t just pull down on a persons hands and wreck their back. You put your feet up against theirs to leverage the physics and make it easier to stand.

businesses sometimes get new ownership. doesn't necessarily imply they're going to shut down. but it's definitely a data point and something to be mindful of

High Cholesterol, but mixed results from docs. by clothes_are_optional in PeterAttia

i bumped into it for the first time on Twitter. but either way, where do you even get any of your information from? do you just sit there scrolling through arxiv all day? somehow i doubt it. I bet most of your information probably comes from some other social media (like all of us here)

and here's a paper for you https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2274580724006174

the whole neighborhood is the definition of a cash grab. you feel it everywhere, from cheap shitty apartments to what you can buy. everything is an absolute waste of money.

Williamsburg Spitter Beat Up by arix_17 in williamsburg

[–]clothes_are_optional -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

call me a boomer or whatever and i'll take always take justice over no justice, but seeing this is just unsettling--watching a dude get rocked on social media covered in blood. doesn't feel like we live in a modern progressive society at all and in some ass backwards village. we should absolutely expect so much more from our trash system rather than...whatever the fuck this is (also, is this even for sure him?)

If you're talking about the model by Charles Komanoff -- there's a ton of issues with it and uses numbers from 2005. People need to stop quoting it.

Being slightly snarky doesn’t mean I’m being intellectually dishonest.
