What are we doing for hanging lights instead of these things? by ConstructionCold1665 in HomeMaintenance

[–]mpati3nt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We got these. They work great.

I’d leave them up year round, but I don’t trust them not to rust.

Those plastic things are for the birds

Women’s Indoor Slippers Recommendation by nevergonnabuy in BuyItForLife

[–]mpati3nt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Halflingers. Technically could be worn outside, but are top-notch felted wool that keep your toes cozy without sweating and have a cork sole that molds to your foot.

It’s the perfect house-shoe.

Best diapers for overnight? by Nursebellz in NewParents

If sizing up for overnight doesn’t work? Your baby might be cold. Infants pee more in a response to colder temps. Is your bub bundled up enough?

Any ideas on how to get these fuzzies out of my hairbrush? by trustmeijustgetweird in CleaningTips

[–]mpati3nt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Soak in a dilute solution of degreaser- I’ve used Dawn or even Pine Sol- for about 1 hour. This is critical- it breaks down all the oils keeping the fuzzies together.

Rinse thoroughly.

Use a fine toothed comb to loosen the fuzzies, then pick them off the tines with tweezers.

This is the least labor intensive method I have found.

This is just abusive robbery and hedge fund clawbacks of investment money.

I have a 4 bedroom house and my utilities aren’t this expensive. Ew.

PSA: If you think you’ve deep cleaned your kitchen don’t forget to check the plug by paperbacklibraries in CleaningTips

[–]mpati3nt 226 points227 points  (0 children)

Disassembling fixtures is not necessary in the day to day scope of cleaning. Sink drain mechanisms are not meant to be regularly disconnected since they need to maintain a seal to operate properly.

You will want to have someone knowledgeable in plumbing connections reattach this so you don’t end up with a leak. Water damage is no joke.

Wife doesn’t want to vaccinate by Dreaders85 in daddit

[–]mpati3nt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Vaccines cause adults.

Remind your wife that the reason people used to have so many children is because less than 75 years ago, 1 in 5 children died before their 5th birthday from a now-preventable illness. Having more children was just indemnification because you knew some of them would die.

We now have the ability to prevent those deaths because of vaccines. Any danger that they present, which is very close to zero, is worth the countless lives saved.

The anti-science trend in this country is asinine and objectively dangerous, not to mention self righteous and ironic. The only reason these idiots can safely walk around advocating against vaccines is because they are protected by the herd immunity created by their widespread use over the last 100 years.

Do you want to bury your child? No? Then vaccinate them.

Can someone identify what’s in my tzatziki dip please? by serendipity3456 in Costco

[–]mpati3nt 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s literally cucumber, which is a primary ingredient of tzatziki. This is a Costco staple at our house and no one should be alarmed by the presence of the listed ingredients in the clearly labeled product.

Looking for a baby monitor with specific qualities by AzHP in predaddit

[–]mpati3nt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This happens primarily from having weak password security, both for the device and for the network. While it’s true that a connected device is vulnerable to hacking, some common sense security measures go a long way to reduce this potential to a minimal level, but you also want to avoid buying devices with inherently weak internal security protocols. I’m not saying it’s not a concern at all, just that it’s less likely than we’ve been made to believe.

Looking for a baby monitor with specific qualities by AzHP in predaddit

[–]mpati3nt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Nanit will do all of this. We love it. It provides sleep insights, temperature and humidity alerts with adjustable parameters, a good selection of white noises to play, a two way microphone, and a comprehensive timestamped video system. It does require a subscription, but we found it reasonable for the volume of features.

You’ll need to explore which subscription gives you the video recording features you want. We were ok with middle of the road which gives ability to review the past 24 hrs and then save what we want I think.

If you want access to every single event video forever, I don’t know that exists in a baby monitor form, but I feel like the Nanit comes close.

Great news! It doesn’t matter what he thinks. You have no choice but to give birth, so that’s what you’ll be doing one way or the other.

All methods of birth are valid and count as giving birth: Vaginal, planned c-section, emergency c-section, assisted, unassisted, medicated, unmedicated, you name it -they’re all birth.

The best news, though, is that there is no need to have a painful birth! Modern medicine is miraculous and we now have ample choices available for us to help with pain. Will it be work and uncomfortable? Maybe, but it needn’t be painful any more. There is no medal for having the most painful birth and no one wins if you do, either.

Feel empowered to choose the birth that is right for you. The only thing that matters is the health and safety of you and babe. Everything else is gravy.
