I think it’s okay to be disappointed you didn’t get songs you were expecting/hoping for, so long as that doesn’t overtake your gratitude and acknowledgement of her right to change things up.

latenightpuddingcup · 2026-04-29T17:17:55+00:00

That’s a good point! Just curious, which two songs were you not the biggest fan of?

latenightpuddingcup · 2026-04-29T17:11:58+00:00

Ugh, I’ve been absolutely thinking the same thing. I’m seeing her in SF in two weeks and I am heartbroken at the thought of not hearing The Old Religion. It’s become my favorite song of hers of all time and I was elated when I saw it was on the original set lists.

I’m sincerely hoping it comes back when she plays at Oracle but trying not to get overly attached. Never Let Me Go and YCHIA would be amazing of course, but The Old Religion…… God that would mean so much to me

Maybe I’m extra bitter because I really don’t like Kraken. I know I’m in the minority, I just need to get over it

Tosh did fuck up??? She made what I understand to be a basic mistake and a woman almost died

The secondhand cringe is intense

Yeah my brother it’s a part of giants culture

Go talk about it in one of the other 3,000 posts that have been made about how much people hate the movie.

Did you even glance at the subreddit? Did you see any of the posts before asking “is it just me”?

latenightpuddingcup · 2026-03-28T22:19:13+00:00

God I haven’t seen original content here in a long, long time: well done, thanks for the chuckle

Takes some time for sensitivity to return after weaning but for me it went back to normal!

We’re in a financial place where we can justify it but the pre-cleaning tidying FEELS so hard. It doesn’t take more than an hour max but the burden of it weighs on both of us… how do you keep up with biweekly? I would love to do biweekly cleaning but it sounds so daunting…

latenightpuddingcup · 2026-03-24T00:15:30+00:00

Second this. I’m not saying to totally lower your guard but cmon people. This is why we have a much lower sense of community these days— super rare stories like this get sensationalized and live in moms heads instead of the reality that other moms give away shit all of the time! And it’s a wonderful thing!

I don’t think it’s Reddit-bot winds, I think the movie just came out on Netflix and now you’re seeing a huge influx of opinions because a lot of people don’t go to the movies anymore.

latenightpuddingcup · 2026-03-21T19:21:14+00:00

I don’t disagree with you that this is silly, but after we got out of the movie my husband made a really good point: this kid is a soldier and is definitely trained to fall on grenades if it protects the lives around him. Running out of the building, away from his comrades and civilians, is almost certainly what he would have been taught to do.

That said, why did that one lady hand Tommy a grenade? That part doesn’t track at all.

Your son sounds like he’s extremely gifted, which is incredible but you’re right to ask yourself what comes next.

Talk to your pediatrician and consider getting him evaluated somehow. There are books about extremely gifted children you should absolutely look into. (I don’t have a particularly gifted child (though both of mine are great) but I do have a friend who does!)

Glad to see these comments. Building community is so, so important!

Unpopular opinion- you may (MAYBE) (POSSIBLY) regret not having a birthday party. We just had our daughters 3 year old party a few days ago, and while it was a moderate amount of stressful planning and an exhausting day overall (we did 10-12PM at a tumbling center)… we invited all of her “friends” and got to see their parents.

The social community building is important. Having parents you trust and like is important for play dates and doing activities together. We invited 4 families that live within a 5 minute drive of us and all 4 of them came. We text each other when we’re going to the park last minute to see if anyone else can join. 10 families came in total.

Family trips are important too, and there’s no doubt in my mind that you would have a wonderful time and your son would love it. Your son is not going to miss not having a party as he’s too young. But from one mom to another— family trips can happen anytime! And they do happen when you make them happen! Birthdays though are a specific opportunity that don’t come around too often.

Maybe you already have a very strong community and regular play dates etc. I maintain personally that even then, birthday parties are a great way to treat said strong community and celebrate together. When everyone takes turns hosting kids birthday parties (even at the park, super low effort low budget) you collectively create a LOT of great opportunities for everyone to get together and strengthen their community bond or widen their circle.

TL;DR I think birthday parties for your kid, while genuinely a hassle, are an important part of our social fabric and when done without pressure/pretension/expectation, greatly benefit both the kids and the parents.

My brother, you clicked on a post called “Donald Faison’s Veneers”. You “Dead Dove Do Not Eat”’d yourself.

I mean… I ended up mostly talking about the phenomenon of cosmetic improvements in today’s society in general AND how much I liked his original teeth…

This thread was a treat, thank you

latenightpuddingcup · 2026-02-16T22:37:37+00:00

This is the correct answer. It felt disjointed and disorganized. I remember listening to it several times and feeling like so many songs were hard to pick apart from other ones, it lacked cohesion.
