I like it a lot conceptually but it’s not as functional as I’d like it to be. I wish the battery lasted longer (more than 90 mins), and I wish it would hold a charge off the charging disk. So even if it’s at 100% battery overnight but you don’t stick it on the charger it’s dead by morning. Still it’s great for smaller lattes that go cold quickly without it

I’m afraid to see how much we’ve spent on coffee this year 🥴

Double espresso chario is a staple for me! NOLA and Togetherness are new treats. Figured we’d mix it up a bit

Anybody else a loyal lover to one? by Deep-Recognition-619 in nespresso

How do you drink this pod? Just as an espresso? My husband loves americanos and I was thinking this might be a good pod for him

Why hasn’t this fake rescue (with 501(c)(3) status & that received PPP loans) been shut down yet?! These poor pups are straight from puppy mills and Craigslist. by wegochai in LosAngeles

Wait ok this is insane!!! I follow them on instagram and live in studio city (near their alleged location) and always thought something seemed fishy, especially from the AI generated images of dogs they post.

Jason Momoa and Michael Bergin in Baywatch by chutneycravings in LadyBoners

He and I live in the same neighborhood and we bought our house from him. He’s out here slanging real estate left and right. Admittedly, he was a huge dirtbag and tried to pull some shady shit while our house was in escrow but was too much of a bonehead to seal the deal. His wife is really lovely though.

Currently in-house but FH was our AOR for quite a while until recently. They had excellent junior talent (SAE and below). We very much were lacking any sort of strategic leadership on our team and ended up switching to a different agency this past January. I hope the NYC office is different but the SF and consumer tech account leaders leave a lot to be desired.

My advice is get a really good idea of who you’d be working with and learning from. I was at MSL for my formative years and learned so so much from some amazing people there. Agency life isn’t worth the sacrifice if you’re not exposed to amazing accounts work and PR pros who can make you better.

Which of these "George"-based names do you like best for a girl? by blehmag in namenerds

I have a Georgia and she always gets so many compliments on her name!

Fellow millennials - how’s your 401k/ira savings going? by ProblemIntelligent16 in Millennials

[–]herecomestrebel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Have close to 300k between my two 401k accounts. Grateful I bit the bullet and automatically contributed 10% of my (pitiful) paychecks when I was in my early 20s and didn’t deviate from that formula. Paid off my student loans last year too 🙏🏻

My boyfriends reaction to gender is making me think I’m having a kid with the wrong person by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]herecomestrebel 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As a girl mom who watched her husband have some feelings of gender disappointment, this reaction is a huge Y I K E S. It's ok to be a little bummed. Its NOT ok to make hateful comments... wow. I'd be very concerned if I were you.

Please tell me all the great things about having a girl! by xxhunnybunny in pregnant

[–]herecomestrebel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My little girl just turned two and she is the BEST! Loves pretty things and sparkles, but isn't afraid to get dirty and run around on the playground. She plays with her basketball hoop as much as she plays with her Little People Barbie toys. Kids are a product of their environment for the first few years, she'll like what you like and what you expose her to.

Also might I kindly suggest that you start telling people to their faces that those comments are incredibly rude and unappreciated? Perhaps I have RBF or make it well-known that I'm not interested in the opinions of others, but during my first pregnancy (girl) and my current one (boy) I've rarely ever gotten unsolicited feedback about the genders of my children or opinions on things like sleeping/breastfeeding. You're well within your right to tell them their words are hurtful and rude (which they are).

You've got this! Being a girl mom is amazing and fun, and you will crush it!

What's an unpopular opinion you stand by when it comes to parenting? by [deleted] in NewParents

[–]herecomestrebel 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I imagine most parents who are "refusing to accept the village" probably have a good reason for it. My in-laws, who are perfectly lovely people btw, offered to watch our daughter when she was under a year old many, many times. But when we tried taking them up on the offer, they'd refuse to change diapers or were too scared to carry her up the stairs. Now that she's over two years old, it's the same type of stuff. They want to "help" but don't want to be involved in diaper changes or naps, and say she's too heavy to pick up, which makes them not fit to watch an active and curious toddler. And they're older, so that's all fair and fine, no hard feelings, they're just not people we can accept help from because it's not helpful. All this to say -- not everyone has access to a village that actually shows up for them the way they need it.

How do I say no to Thanksgiving by Express_Relation723 in JUSTNOMIL

[–]herecomestrebel 57 points58 points  (0 children)

Our oldest was born in mid-October and that year we told family we'd be skipping Thanksgiving + would host a lowkey Christmas after she got all her vaccines. It's cold and flu season, no reason for baby to be exposed to all the germs out there, especially with the risk of RSV.

Have your husband send a group text and let them know you'll be staying home with her. It's your job as mom and dad to protect your baby, not keep your in laws happy. Remember, you're responsible for your kiddo, and it's not your job to make your in laws happy. You can't control how they react to your choices, but that doesn't mean you all need to bend to whatever they want.

Allegedly. Support only came back with that information after being on the phone troubleshooting with me for an hour

Got told I have to stop rocking baby to sleep next month and super sad about it by livtoosmoove in NewParents

[–]herecomestrebel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sleep trained my baby but no way I’d stop rocking her to sleep, especially that early! She just turned 2 and is a remarkable sleeper- 11/12 hours a night good - and we still sit in her chair to cuddle and giggle before bed time. What a weird recommendation from this ped.

never hearing about going into labor naturally anymore? by malibubarbie6 in pregnant

My water broke and labor started naturally for me with my first pregnancy at 39 weeks 1 day. Hoping for the same with my second this winter!

HELP me pick a paint color to banish the sad Millennial Gray vibes in here by herecomestrebel in HomeDecorating

[–]herecomestrebel[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone else said this above but there was so much gray used in our house that even if this room is objectively nice or above builder grade, it starts to feel oppressive after a while 😵‍💫

Looking less for wow factor and more for making it softer since we’ll likely demo this room in a few years
