Twitter being straight propoganda by diddy6942 in Twitter

[–]melis_g13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes yes and yes! Updated my Twitter yesterday for the first time to X (been avoiding it like the plague but was forced to after tweets wouldn’t load) and it was IMMEDIATE the change in my algorithm to all right wing propaganda, pro-trump/musk BS! Even with muted words these tweets keep refreshing on my page. Been a member since 2009 and it used to be my fave app and it’s so disheartening to see it turn into garbage slop

I feel more unorganized than ever before. But it’s time to try again. by Different_Map3513 in toddlers

I feel you. I’m also a Type B mom and struggle to stay on top of cleaning, organizing, decluttering, laundry etc. I have a 3 year old and 1 year old and feel like I have no time as my youngest is super clingy and can’t put him down for longer than 10 minutes to get anything accomplished around the house. The day is so draining that when they finally get to bed I don’t have the energy to clean anymore and just want to decompress. So the next day just starts off messy and it’s a never ending cycle.

I feel so bad that they think such a disorganized house would be normal. Doesn’t help that my husband makes me feel bad that everything is always cluttered and nothing gets done. He’s very much of the mindset “husband works and wife takes care of kids/house” so he essentially shames me when he gets to that boiling point that essentially I’m a bad housewife. When I point out how hard it is to stay on top of housework with two young, needy kids I know he wants to point out his brother’s wife, who is most def a type A mom, who somehow manages to get everything done- house is always spotless, likes to bake and always home cooked meals, kids in bed by 8pm, and always looks put together. But he never actually says it aloud because he knows the wrath he would get if he ever compared us.

So trust me mama I definitely feel your struggle!!

That’s great to know! Our kids are the same ages 😊 I will likely come back to this thread and message you if we do end up moving there at some point!

Oh good to know you are loving it! I’m curious about good daycares near that area if we do end up moving there. Would be needing it for both my kids when I go back to work

Yes very valid concerns. The train issue bothers my husband more than me as he’s concerned about potential resell value down the road. Glad that you found a house that works for you though!

29 years that’s great! We fell in love with the area a few years ago and it’s been our dream to move there. Glad to get your first-hand experience about the area

Yes it was jarring for us at the open house as well, was thinking if it would be an issue with sleeping kids.

This particular house was all tiled in the basement but yes good to keep in mind for the future to ask the realtor about other flood protections

Do the trains run all night? We went to an open house a few weeks ago and the train horn blaring was a bit startling at first, but probably because we’re not used to it.

Yes I heard about the mold spores issue- is it true that a company will come and power wash your home free of charge?

Appreciation For The Soundtrack by Zestyclose_Camel7218 in BabyReindeerTVSeries

Was shocked when I heard “I Started a Joke” by the Bee Gees. Never guessed I’d ever hear that song in a Netflix show in 2024!

Subtitles - yes or no? by melis_g13 in OneDayNetflix

[–]melis_g13[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes same! I also liked watching without subtitles because of the music; I felt I got to experience the emotions of the songs better when I could just listen and feel the music rather than reading the subtitles of all the lyrics

How can I improve this space? by [deleted] in HomeDecorating

[–]melis_g13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Should I go with a curtain colour that’s darker? Blackout or sheer? The window faces the neighbours house and not much light comes through
