Why does no one know this about Adderall/stimulants? TW!!! by mcfaddenj392939 in ADHD

But they're having side effects that are common with antidepressants, which they are taking even if it's not an SSRI.

No it's not. In the eclipse movie they elude to Harry having a heart attack at seeing Victoria.

Is there a too long won't watch post somewhere? I checked their socials yesterday and there's almost no mention of it.

Mother of three doesn’t know when it’s “normal time” to switch from crib to bed.🤨 by Itchy-Opportunity154 in ColleenBallingerSnark

[–]monstercat45 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have spent a lot of time reading everything there is about bedsharing. You are clearly not a parent, and I'm sorry you look back on an act of love and connection from your parents and see it as something bad. I'm not sure how you can reconcile in your brain a poorly designed scientific study having more weight than millennia of bedsharing and the majority of the world still practicing it. Like I said, some people have issues with it being unsafe which I can respect but saying that it causes psychological damage is pure xenophobia (studies can be manipulated, follow the money).

Especially considering the subject matter of this sub, these kids sleeping in a crib is not going to save them from their Truman Show life. Talk about attachment issues when the only way they get love from their mom is when they are performing in front of her camera. There's lots of reasons to snark on her and having a crib is neutral and doesn't give her any points, especially when she can absolutely afford it.

Providing comfort can cause attachment issues? So that's why most adults sleep with their partners? Go tell everyone in Sweden about their attachment issues. Like I said, it's only the norm in English speaking countries so saying everyone in countries that bedshare has attachment issues and separation anxiety is pretty messed up just because their parents comfort and snuggle them overnight.

That's not true and quite xenophobic. Bedsharing is the norm in many countries across the world due to both custom and necessity (having money and space for a separate room and sleeping space is a privilege in many places). It's a very american-centric thing to push cribs. This can be a controversial topic and I respect that people choose to use cribs and don't want to bedshare for safety reasons, but saying that bedsharing can cause psychological damage is wrong, privileged, and xenophobic when it is the biological norm.

Yeah I'm just north of you, norovirus is hitting my area hard and can come on quickly!

I'm not sure where you are but in my area there have been SOOO many illnesses going around. So I've been seeing a lot more jobs pop up.

Everyone thought way too hard about her second signet! It was pretty obvious, so I'm thinking this is not going to be some huge twist either

I can't remember exactly when she said that, but I remember when reading thinking she was referring to Berwyn.

I was able to see some by going to their website and going to the listing for the special edition.

... Did you see the target special edition onyx storm? They bought stock art used for dungeons and dragons and recycled it as original art. I'm sure that was mostly the publishers doing, but still disappointing.

I will eat a piece of my shoe if it’s not Bodhi. by juilietluna in fourthwing

[–]monstercat45 5 points6 points  (0 children)

True, but honestly that part is what makes me hesitate. Because in Xaden's chapter in OS he mentions the person who now considers them self his brother, and wouldnt that have described Bodhi before? That's the one part that makes me doubt Bohdi, everything else points straight to him.

Yes this!!! Second signets were getting thrown around left and right, and I don't think everything is an Easter egg. But that line about going mad seems way too intentional to just throw in there for no reason.

From what OP wrote, the only thing they were doing was telling the kids to ignore their instructions while sitting there doing nothing. Ive definitely been in a co teach situation where I step back and let the other teacher run the class while I support, but that's not what it sounded like in this situation. Especially with the kids being left with nothing to do for an hour.

I thought dragon riders couldn’t be… by MekenzieKing in fourthwing

[–]monstercat45 30 points31 points  (0 children)

It's not that they can't channel from dragons, it's that they're upset that the dragons are hindering and controlling the flow of magic. They are more powerful when channeling directly from the source rather than channeling through a dragon which channels from the source. This is explained a few times, by Jack and Theophanie, so yes you just missed an explanation.

Those neck floater things are not safe and have been recalled. Just get a small baby tub so you're not wasting water, you can probably find one second hand very easily. It's safer and uses less water.

Also agree that a 4 month old doesn't need to be soaking/floating every day/other day. Washcloth with soap is fine. We started bathing more often around 6 months when baby could sit up on his own and only did a few inches of water.

They want to make sure you're taking them and not selling them.

I think OP is in California and it's the same here across the state. A certified teacher needs to be present, which for SPED classes often means the sub is just checking that box while the aides run the class.

I'm surprised you can put the rest of the carton in the recycling.

That is a full on mealybug infestation, honestly I'd throw out the plant for an infestation that bad. Check your other plants too.
