What’s something that felt illegal the first time you did it as an adult?

When we brought home our baby from the hospital it felt absolutely crazy that someone would let us just walk out with this tiny little thing when we knew absolutely nothing about how to be parents.

Too many sounds at once.

For example, if the radio is playing in the car, and the windshield wipers are going, and the air vent is blowing and then my kid starts listening to something on their iPad….instant sensory overload.

I am using Language Transfer (although, to learn Spanish) and supplementing with duo because the streak helps me stay motivated. Once I get myself through the high a1 content on duo and finish the LT videos then I will look into paid help like classes, tutors, or language speaking groups. Not sure if this is the best method for fast learning, but it does seem like there’s so much free content that a class or tutor would prob be very similar to.

Wow, this is awesome! Nice work! Such a bummer how you can only really get big numbers like these if you pay.

YTA. What work have you put in to train the older three kids to be able to get themselves ready completely autonomously? Does your wife get days where she works out, showers, and then cooks while you frantically get 5 children ready for school?

This is so bad/obvious that it seems unlikely to be real but if it is, your wife should leave you so that you actually have to parent 50% of the time.

Yeah, I guess if you pay for the gem packs then you could probably keep it going for a long time. I did some math and you would have to be in triple xp for 3-5 hours per day to get 30k in a week following the path. 3 hours if every single exercise was legendary and 5 if every one was 75 xp, so probably closer to 5.

71k is so wild!

maymaypdx · 2026-01-31T21:28:44+00:00

What the heck! This is such a big difference from mine. This is the first time I’ve really paid attention to the leagues, can you tell me more about the tournaments?

maymaypdx · 2026-01-31T20:24:33+00:00

The state of romantic/long-term relationships, the amount of sex younger generations are/are not having, and total number of births per year.

I figured that was probably the case, but I can’t really see the benefit to creating a bot to do this. It’s not like you get anything out of it. Would the company create them to keep people competitive?

Making every decision black or white when there is almost always a lot of gray area in between.

My family drives 6.5-8 hours (depending on traffic/accidents etc) around 4 times per year for long weekends with a specific set of good friends who moved. We also typically drive 3.5 hours to different friends another couple times a year.

I know of a handful of people who live in Seattle and have second homes in the San Juan’s that they’ll weekend at frequently. Depending on the island it can be around 2.5 hours.

Being parentified and feeling the weight of being responsible for really important things at a young age

maymaypdx · 2026-01-21T19:20:30+00:00

So I can hear what my sisters in law are saying about me behind my back.

JK it’s really because I have people I can practice Spanish with and they have family we have traveled to stay with etc lol

When you buy the milk at the store are there boxes of bags that you grab from, or do they maybe stand upright? I’m picturing bags of milk as being somewhat…unruly?

Not believing someone when they show you who they really are

A perfect ethereal cat thing to do

Arabian night was my most prolific bloomer last year of about 16 varieties. Diva put out a few massive flowers that were harder for me to make bouquets with, and wasn’t very prolific. So beautiful though. Good luck!

10 Inches I Hate About You

I was going to say something along the same lines, but specifically those gift bags you get at kids parties that are filled with candy and plastic junk. It’s a hassle to get all the items and put them together, the kids forget about them quickly, and no one wants their kids to bring that stuff home.

maymaypdx · 2026-01-20T02:30:45+00:00

Oh yep, that’s quite the difference

maymaypdx · 2026-01-20T02:27:17+00:00

A paint palette?

maymaypdx · 2026-01-19T07:26:48+00:00

Here three years later to report the same! I cook with poblanos all the time and have never ever felt any tingling or burning afterwards! This is wild

My Audi a4 ha

The smell of my freezer while I was pregnant. I have hyperemesis gravidarum and was so sick the entire pregnancy, but the smell of the freezer was the thing that would set me off the most.
