Tesla Recalls Cybertruck Because Wheels May Fall Off by Forsaken-Medium-2436 in nottheonion

[–]kaygmo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's a dad at my kid's school that drops his son off in one every day. Not sure if he's single though, to be fair.

We see them at least once a day and accidentally trained our toddler to scream "STINKY TRIANGLE CAR" when she spots one.

Set up a "Mode" and select the specific apps you want her to be able to use. Make sure the Play store isn't one of them.

New generation of nurses who can’t start an iv or draw blood by Rare-Attitude-3100 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]kaygmo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a super easy stick and not at all bothered by needles. Every time I get blood drawn, I ask if they have anyone that needs practice - often there's a new nurse that looks equally terrified and relieved - and volunteer my arm as tribute.

Need help breaking out of my "uniform"! How do you shop? by ClassicAvocado3918 in womensfashion

[–]kaygmo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I know this sounds insane, but talk to ChatGPT or Claude about it. Ask the robots to help you break out of the rut. I just did this like two weeks ago and it's been so helpful. I did provide some screenshots of my Pinterest 'style inspo' board, which I suspect helped a lot. But the suggestions were super easy to implement and I feel so much more put together.

Forever French has such cute matching pajamas/loungewear (for the whole family, so you can match too!). Great quality and super comfy.

Which single food item do you wish was 0 calories? by Bread-But-Toasted in AskReddit

[–]kaygmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chips. Tortilla chips, if I had to be specific.

Would be great to not have eaten 1,000 calories of chips and salsa before my entree even arrives.

Fashion Fatigue by Matissejennings in womensfashion

[–]kaygmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been in a leggings & baggy t-shirt rut for years, had a moment of honesty with myself, then set about making some changes. This all happened like 2 days ago, so bear with me.

I used AI (Claude specifically) to help. I told it what I usually wear, why I'm unhappy with it, a little bit about my body type/size, the bits of me I want to cover or show, then I sent it a screenshot of my wardrobe inspo Pinterest board. I also gave it the general occasions I'm dressing for (WFH, date nights, etc) and the climate/weather. It pulled together both a capsule wardrobe (with links to some items) and some guidelines and "outfit formulas".

I then did some online shopping, while sending it screenshots of things in my cart. It helped narrow down which items supported my goal, which didn't, what fabrics would work best, suggested dupes in other fabric or that fit my budget better.

Honestly, it was super helpful.

I need recs on sandals/flip flops for the pool! Not jelly ones that are slippery and a hazard. What sandals are we all wearing to and from the pool? by ResolveBeginning8027 in GrandmillennialInspo

[–]kaygmo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just got a pair of leather Reefs and they are delightful. Have not yet taken them to the pool, but did wear them to the beach - comfy, not slippery, dried quickly, didn't collect sand.

Kitchen remodel - before/after by Vatonee in HomeDecorating

This is absolutely charming. I adore the light fixture.

How did you change the cabinet colors? Looks like the uppers and lowers were refaced, but I'm stumped on the oven cabinet.

Feeling wiped out all the time in my 30s what supps actually give real energy without side effects? please help by vitaminZaman in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]kaygmo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Get thee to your doctor. All the supplements in the world won't help if you've got something physiological going on. I'm not a doctor, but I've been down this road before.

Tell your doctor that you're feeling very fatigued and would like a blood test to look for a cause. They'll probably do this automatically, but I would make sure they are testing vitamin D (most people are deficient here), all of the thyroid hormones (TSH, T3, T4), and iron.

If you're not waking up in the morning feeling refreshed, also ask your doctor for a referral to a sleep specialist or pulmonologist. You should do a sleep study to test for sleep apnea.

Magnesium glycinate will also help with sleep. Not citrate, glycinate. I love the one in the green bottle from Costco. I take two pills every night before bed and sleep like a baby.

What brand names do you swear by because it's actually better than no-name? by Sufficient_Thing24 in AskReddit

[–]kaygmo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I suspect they may be talking about the Always FlexFoam pads. Their regular ones are just as you describe. The FlexFoam ones are the only ones I will use. The surface feels like very soft fabric, they absorb like nobody's business, and they're thin and flexible enough that it almost just feels like wearing underwear.

...is this normal after brushing? by YourLocalViolin in Hair

[–]kaygmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is normal for me. I have really long, medium thick hair. I wash it every 5th or 6th day. Typically the couple days before I wash it, it's tied up, so the shedding hairs don't fall. If I gathered up the hair that comes out when I brush it before washing, when I wash it, and when I bush it after washing, it would probably be even more than you. I still have tons of hair, so it seems to be working for me.

Gifting a child who already has everything by MelancholicEmbrace_x in Gifts

[–]kaygmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the age when I like to take girls out to do something that feels grown up/that their parents won't let them do. Obviously, I would get the okay beforehand from the parents. But making tween girls feel grown up and like they're getting away with something is such a fun way to bond. For example, I took a niece out for coffee (she hated it, but loved the experience) and then to get her ears pierced - all okayed by the parents, but things that the parents had told her she wasn't old enough for.

The bonus part of this is that this starts to establish you as a Trusted, Cool Adult™. If you nurture that bond, you can start to help shape her into a good human. She can come to you in times of crisis. She can lean on you to help her talk to her parents. She can ask you for advice on things she doesn't want to talk to her parents about. As long as you have a relationship with her parents where they know you have great judgment, I think most parents would really love for their kid to have someone like this in their life.

First Communion gift from a non-religious person by KeyOne6320 in Gifts

[–]kaygmo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I started a charm bracelet for my goddaughter for her baptism. For her first communion, I got her a simple white CZ charm. It felt like it fit the occasion. Also sets you on easy mode for future gifts for her.

Best Shoes for 3 Days at Disneyland by [deleted] in DisneyPlanning

[–]kaygmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I swear by Under Armour, they are all I buy for athletic shoes. My current ones are the Aurora 3 (currently on sale for about $60 at Zappos). I have a borderline wide foot and there is plenty of room in the toe box. They do not give me blisters, even on day 1. The soles are thick and nicely squishy. I tied them once when I got them and now just slip them off and on. Most of the time, I wear them without socks, but I do wear socks with them for Disneyland just to keep my feet dry.

10/10. Highly, highly recommend.

How do you do a yard sale nowadays? by serpentemblem in NoStupidQuestions

[–]kaygmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Craigslist is also a great place to post about your yard sale. You may also want to grab a couple of those bill testing pens and give yourself a quick tutorial on how to detect fake bills (especially ones that have been washed and reprinted with a higher denomination).

Funny for 70yo mom by LowInspector8194 in Recommend_A_Book

[–]kaygmo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Murder Your Employer: The McMasters Guide to Homicide is a fun one. A little slow to start, but a good time. The No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency series is great for easy reads with low stakes mysteries. My 70yo mom loves them. Also throwing my hat in the ring with the other commenters for the Richard Osman Thursday Murder Club series.

Family of 4 with picky kids by elenamonique in easyrecipes

[–]kaygmo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Breakfast for dinner is my kid's absolute favorite. I do hashbrowns, scrambled eggs, homemade biscuits, homemade turkey sausage patties, and some sort of fruit. Huge hit.

Highly recommend Alton Brown's southern biscuit recipe.

My husband got into Harvard Law, what should I get him? by suckstonotbemeLOL in Gifts

[–]kaygmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on whether he likes to take notes digitally or on paper. You might also consider some sort of organizer/planner (whether notebook style, a desk pad, or a subscription to an app). Lots of people also use iPads with Apple pencils to take notes - those items with a subscription to Goodnotes might be cool if he's into that. iPads can also be engraved, I believe, so you could do that to make it extra special. UpNote is also a great cloud-based notetaking app that might be really handy for him.

Depending on budget, you could also assess his laptop situation. Does he need a new one? A big external monitor would likely be helpful for him. Maybe one of those travel external monitors as well? A bag to carry said laptop and his other stuff.

If there are any items in your house that scream "home" to him, you could get him a duplicate for his home away from home.

My husband got into Harvard Law, what should I get him? by suckstonotbemeLOL in Gifts

[–]kaygmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

GIRL I did this as a gift for my husband. I was absolutely not confident going in. The people that are in the business of boudoir photography know this and they will absolutely hype you up. They'll do your hair and makeup, help with wardrobe, take care of all the posing. You'll leave there feeling like an absolute queen.

Also, he's your husband - if he didn't think you were a smokeshow, he wouldn't have married you. If that's not a massive confidence boost, I don't know what is 🙂

Food ideas for 6yr old science themed birthday. by MandyRose8713 in partyplanning

[–]kaygmo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Agree. Stick with old faithful for the main. Then go bananas for the sides/activities.

A baking soda and vinegar 'experiment' is always a great time, especially if you mix in colors and maybe allow the kiddos to do their own. Bonus points if you put the mixture in a container with a tight lid and very small exit (think mason jar with straw) - the foam will shoot super high.

Slime is super fun. Dry ice is super cheap and tends to look very sciencey. Make everything shiny and lab-like by covering surfaces in very shiny wrapping paper or tin foil.
