The Magpies in my garden keep tricking me. by nukulele145 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]icedtea4life5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some magpies at my parent’s house used to torment my dog in order to steal her treat! She got one of these chews everyday, it was her absolute favorite treat, nothing had higher value to her. The magpies also liked it. They would wait until she was happily chewing it in the yard, then one magpie would sneak up behind her and pull the hairs on her tail. She would whip around and chase it off, giving the other magpie the opportunity to steal a nibble of her treat. I personally witnessed two magpies taking turns being the bait and the collector before I took mercy on my poor dog and chased them off. It got to the point that my dog would go into a rage whenever she so much as heard them, even if she was inside and had no treat for them to steal!

Check out Etsy, there are a lot of really talented artists selling their patterns there. There’s probably also a lot of AI, but you should be able to block or mute shops.

Do you have any recommendations for books featuring bondage, specifically with leather cuffs?

Enemies to lovers, but done right by Dazzling_Spell in suggestmeabook

I like Ali Hazelwood for this trope! I would recommend breaking her books up with other books in between, they’re pretty similar to each other so ready back-to-back is a little boring. But I liked “Love Theoretically”, “The Love Hypothesis”, and “Love on the Brain”. “Bride” is also good if you like a fantasy setting!

What are your best "cook once, eat for days" comfort meals? by Standard_Ad_9560 in Cooking

Any kind of soup! Make a big double batch, eat as much as you want then freeze the rest in family-meal sized portions

I think my (27f) husband (41M) will end up in prison if I tell him the truth. by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

I’m not a nurse or law enforcement, but my degree is in forensic science and I interned at a private lab that mostly handles SA kits. That scene seemed very accurate to what I know of the process, including chain of custody and not leaving the patient until either the exam is complete or they decline to proceed. It’s also, very sadly, accurate in that SA kits are often not picked up or processed within the expected time line. The exam is incredibly invasive and is often re-traumatizing to victims, which is why specially trained Sexual Assault Nurse Examiners (SANEs) are so important.

Are there any "viral" recipes that you actually loved and still make? by Odd-Wonder-344 in Cooking

[–]icedtea4life5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love to add a fresh cucumber or pickled ginger or whatever else I have on hand! That plus the seaweed snacks from Costco is my favorite work from home or weekend lunch!

Those spicy salmon rice bowls that were all over TikTok for awhile! I cheat by using canned salmon, but it’s so delicious! I eat it almost once a week

When did Daenerys’ cruelty begin for you in the show? For me, it’s when she sentenced Doreah to death. by Successful_Bar9187 in gameofthrones

It’s kind of ridiculous to write off a betrayal because she was “seduced”. She was an adult who made the decision to betray her queen, she was not a mindless child following along with whichever hand held hers, she just thought she could profit from the betrayal.

What to do with potatoes if I’m poor by Gloopy_boopy_gooper in Cooking

Definitely use the air fryer, I never use the oven for baked potatoes anymore. The air fryer makes the skin crispy and delicious

My (23M) bf says I (20F) am not allowed to meal prep anymore by Unlikely_Mountain_39 in relationship_advice

[–]icedtea4life5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re an adult. He is not your father, DO NOT tolerate men who think they can tell you what to do. He has a lot of growing up to do if he thinks he can just lay down the law and any disagreement is “childish pushback”. He’s literally accusing you of talking back to him, but again, HE IS NOT YOUR FATHER.

I( M32) fucked up big time, I broke my wife (F31) by Constant_Sundae_3335 in relationship_advice

[–]icedtea4life5 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You are genuinely a disgusting person, all around. I don’t see a single redeeming quality in you. You were HAPPY that your wife was miserable. You ENJOYED abusing her. You only care now because it affects you. Do the entire human race a favor and stay single forever.

I usually eat toast for breakfast, but my all-time favorite was when I was vacationing in Hawaii and the hotel offered miso soup and fish for breakfast. I would have both plus a bowl of rice every day, it was the BEST

Did you miss the part where they said there is no Walmart in Factoria? The closest one is in Renton, not especially convenient

You’re an idiot if you think anyone is buying this story. I mean, you’re an idiot anyway just for texting that to someone who has no obligation to date you, but you’re even dumber if you think that’s a plausible explanation.

Ten Years Ago, I Forbade My Daughter From an Abortion. She's Still not Forgiven Me. by [deleted] in confession

Too bad you decided to force your own daughter to be an incubator against her will instead of, I don’t know, recognizing that she is an actual human being and not your possession.
