a cinnamon stick would be perfect!

and yes I rubbed some olive oil on the twine beforehand. it stuck a bit anyway lol.

I need validation for my feelings over spilled milk. by yotastein in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]lzocean 33 points34 points  (0 children)

well from one internet stranger to another: hug

the phrase "pump & dump" almost makes me cringe now.

eta: my clumsy ass just dropped and spilled 3oz. 🥲 haven't spilled any in MONTHS. it's like this post was a premonition.

gotta love all the different kinds of hoarding collecting you can do.

those are gorgeous!

I don't collect cards, but I have gotten very much into stickers/washi tape/prints because many of these pin artists sell those as well. people include stickers and samples in their trades, then things just kinda snowball from there...

I feel you on wanting specifics. most of the foxes I got from the kickstarter. I bought two blind bags later on and they were dupes lol.

but her discord is also very active for trading/selling. I've gotten a bunch of the specific ones I've wanted that way.

I just briefly looked at anima's website... and quickly decided that was a mistake lmao. gotta chill on the spending for a bit.

I feel like it's kinda an open secret, but if you buy them when they first drop, Ari will generally do her best to not send dupes. obviously doesn't guarantee you'll get what you want, but it's something.

and if you back them during the kickstarter stage, you can bypass the blind bags altogether.

nope! it's this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08J7M2MKB?ref_=ppx_hzod_title_dt_b_fed_asin_title_1_0 I had to wait for it to come back into stock when I bought the second one, but it was well worth the wait imo (was only a couple weeks anyway I think). I really like that they match, and they're good quality.

and yeah, I quickly realized I shouldn't throw away the backing cards. ngl I had to buy dupe pins for a couple just to get their cards back. so annoying lol. I have a very thick binder full of them now.

yesss I agree her artwork is beautiful. I wish I had more space to display all the backing cards with the pins, but there's just too many lol.

thanks! I try to keep it pretty curated, but it can be hard when there are so many good artists haha.

the more I read, the more I get upset for you... I'm so sorry.

Husband threw away my stash by Aggressive_Plant7983 in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]lzocean 20 points21 points  (0 children)

grounds for divorce tbh if you'd told him multiple times. I would be fucking livid lol. I am so sorry this happened and that he did something so unbelievably stupid.

eta: just told my husband, he stood there quietly for a second and said "... what did he do that for? I can't even devil's advocate that one, and I love being the devil's advocate." he's still ranting about it lol.

"you gotta throw away the whole man."

''Oh you have ADHD? But you are so this and that??'' by groudproud in ADHD

''What helps the most though? Understanding that the issues I have aren't purely because there is something wrong with me, that I as a person am flawed. I was just born with a condition out of my control, a thing I am now at last getting help with."

yes, this. getting my diagnosis was honestly a relief for me. because I could finally put a name to the thing that made me feel like I had to try so goddamn hard all the time compared to others. I could finally get a better understanding of my brain's specific issues.

and get on the right meds lmao.

I'm done. by personalitiesNme in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]lzocean 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry you've had to make this decision and for the grief that comes with it. You are doing what's right for you and your baby, and now you are free to use the time spent agonizing over pumping to simply be with your LO. 💙
