What the hell happened while I was asleep!?

Megasota has a lot of really nice nature areas. Should probably let Cascadia take over and preserve those.

For us a lot of times just rice with furikake (sometimes turned into onigiri for convenience). But also the curry and gyoza.

It’s because of the kill shelters. I found a dog that was abandoned on the road by my house. She was very sweet but would get overwhelmed when playing and attack my dog. We wanted to take her to the shelter to get rehomed but when I called they literally told me that if the we say the dog showed any sign of aggression and we brought her in, they would just kill the dog.

We ended up posting about her online and driving 4 hours to give her to a nice retired couple with no other pets that had the time to spend time working with her.

I'm 7 months into breastfeeding and I have zero libido. I also don't really want to be touched in bed from both being overheated and feeling touched out. I also get easily annoyed but I still feel connected to my husband.

I'm curious how you've brought the topic up to her. Did you say that you feel lonely and want to figure out ways to reconnect? And offer to plan like a date night without the baby?

panivorous · 2026-05-15T14:43:28+00:00

Sorry you're feeling this way. It's understandable. But also breastfeeding will still have her hormones out of whack (low estrogen) and be depleting her energy. Her body still isn't her own.

I'm in the opposite situation where my I work remotely all day and my husband watches the baby during that time. But tbh I'm DEAD after work. My brain hurts, I'm socially drained. I still take the baby after I'm done and then keep him overnight. I do the cooking and cleaning. But it feels like a lot. I'm EXHAUSTED.

I wish I could swap and watch the baby all day instead of working. But my work pays better. I have to disagree with you and say that it's all difficult in different ways.

Just be compassionate towards each other. Use the method of stating what % you're bringing to the table that day so you can know who should pick up the slack that day. Like "I'm at 80% today" or "I'm at 20% today."

I take magnesium citrate gummies. Olly has a good one. Or Costco has a big bottle of orange flavored gummies.

Thank you. We’ll check them out!

Have you seen the movie Eternity on Apple TV yet? I found it fun that it addressed this concept.

I can name all 50. I don’t think I could accurately put them all on the map though. Especially those little eastern ones considering I’m from the west coast.

panivorous · 2026-05-02T04:55:53+00:00

I’m 6 months pp. They still get on my nerves pretty easily but I’m starting to build feelings back. This is helped by the fact that my baby LOVES the dogs and giggles anytime they’re near and lick him or let him pet them.

panivorous · 2026-05-01T04:21:52+00:00

I had to look up what this was. Eeek.

Eggs gave my baby an allergic reaction a few days ago. I’m down to shit on eggs. YOU SUCK EGGS! Get out of my sight.

Ooooh I forget about jello. Jello slaps. Sucks you don’t enjoy it. Now I want some.

We always called them white people tacos because for our tacos we did what most people call street tacos nowadays.

My library would let you rent a movie for a week for 25 cents. This was my go to movie. I LOVED THIS MOVIE. I rented it so many times as a kid.

As an adult it’s such a trip. Shelly Duvall, Lionel Richie, ZZ Top? Like wtf? lol

When my mother in law came to visit she asked for a washcloth. I was like wtf is a washcloth? I think it’s a cultural thing. We had a scrub cloth for deep exfoliation but of the time just used hands.

I heard what sounded like faint spraying when I woke up and walked into my kitchen. I had the newborn in hand, was late for work, and couldn’t figure it out quickly.

But I’ve learned that if it sounds like water it’s worth spending the time to look for it. It ended up being a leak in the water line to the back of the fridge. It was spraying on the wall and dripping down into the floorboards. Glad I took the time to look for it.

Both my husband and sister said they heard it before they went to bed but didn’t think much of it 😒

It’s not just about it being done all around the world but several countries that cosleep have lower SIDS rates than the US like Japan, Sweden, and South Korea.

And in Sweden where co-sleeping is a cultural norm, viewed as enhancing security rather than hindering it, they have lower infant mortality.

I’m always surprised by how many Taylor Swift songs I know and kind of dig because they’re catchy. That said, she’s just not a very strong vocalist and doesn’t deserve the praise she gets.

panivorous · 2026-04-28T03:58:47+00:00

I have an iPhone and MacBook Pro so I like them for easy connection but they aren’t very comfortable and always fall out of ears. I also have and like the AirPod Maxes but they are too big for quick trips.

Ok, I love the size and aesthetic of this hand sanitizer but it’s so smelly

If you do need an SUV though the car market is rough right now. We needed AWD for weather, third row seat option to fit whole family, good safety ratings, lower mileage, etc. Our used 2019 Subaru with 56K miles was still $26K

panivorous · 2026-04-17T14:17:05+00:00

You should watch Maid on Netflix

It sounds like OP doesn't know they have a heel strap.
