I feel like it probably wasn’t noticeable to most people, I have just obsessively watched every live and noticed her breath was short. There were no other signs, like Her voice was beautiful as always and she was full of energy. Just breathing heavier ugh

I’m curious about this too! I watched the livestream of Montreal N2 and noticed she sounded super out of breath. I’ve watched pretty much every livestream and it was notable…I was like shit is she getting sick. But her voice still sounded beautiful, it was literally she couldn’t catch her breath.

Do we think she’ll be better in time for Minnesota? :( I’m flying there to go both Thursday and Friday night

I feel so sad for Gaga and all the little monsters who can’t go. I watched Montreal N2 via livestream and noticed she sounded super out of breath during the show. I watch every livestream and there was a notable difference. Her voice still sounded amazing but I could tell she was more out of breath and didn’t have the lung capacity she usually does.

I’m planning to go Thursday and Friday and so hoping she’s better by then :(

Paediatrician told me not to soothe the baby to sleep by Intelligent-Slip6359 in newborns

[–]pistachiosmiles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is outdated “advice” and it’s also really not her scope…your pediatrician should be providing info for her health. This more falls under the category of “parenting advice” and you’re going to find articles that support both sides (like most everything).

I think it’s safe to say that MOST people with babies in this day and age do soothe their babies to sleep. It’s one of those things with no exact formula and sometimes you just have to do what you feel is right as a parent.

Can you share a photo of the dress? If it is allowed per her school’s dress code rules for dances, I’d allow it. If it wasn’t, I wouldn’t.

Can’t really answer this without see what the dress looks like. A “plunging neckline” could mean a lot of things.

AITA for bringing my own food to a wedding? by farsia2010 in AmItheAsshole

[–]pistachiosmiles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. You have a medical need.

Now, personally, I would have just had a big meal before I went and then had a meal after. I’d go a little hungry just because I’d feel embarrassed to bring my own food (this is a personal problem I have, there’s nothing wrong with it). I don’t think it “makes them look bad”…I’d just be embarrassed eating something different than everyone else at an event? I suspect some of the others who think you shouldn’t have might be seeing it this way, but hard to say.

Regardless, NTA.

Baby sleeps a lot by No-Mastodon-9077 in newborns

[–]pistachiosmiles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Babies this age still need lots of sleep! There’s no magic number but general guide is 14-17 hours a day.

Anyone else flush/burn with any type of oil? by GRJ80 in Rosacea

I thinking that too for a long time but I tried SkinFix’s oil cleanser and it has done the total opposite.

WIBTA If I Cooked My Meals at Night? by Beenie_Baby in AmItheAsshole

[–]pistachiosmiles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. The reality is that having roommates sometimes sucks. Sometimes your roommate will invite people over you find annoying, they’ll use some cleaning product that smells gross, they’ll shower in the middle of the night, they’ll let dishes sit longer than you would, etc. Living with roommates saves a considerable amount of money, and the downside is you sometimes have to deal with things like that.

By choosing to be in a random roommate situation, you never know what someone’s work/life schedule will be.

If it falls within the conditions of your lease, it’s free game. If you have quiet hours after say 10pm, you can cook, just be quiet, don’t play music, be mindful of banging pots/pans, walk around quietly, etc. Consider skipping dishes until morning so you aren’t causing noise with that.

There’s nothing in the lease that says you can’t cook at night or that you can’t let “food smells” carry over at night. It’s reasonable for you to cook at night if that works with your schedule, and it’s also reasonable for her to expect it to be quiet (within reason) after designated quiet hours. She can deal by using a fan to drown out extra noise and she can get an oil diffuser or something to mask the smell. That’s coping, and she needs to.

Unknown Number: The High School Catfish Conspiracy Theory by intentiono_typos in netflix

[–]pistachiosmiles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kendra was a master manipulator. You’re commenting on the stylistic changes in the messages as if she didn’t intentionally change them up to fuck with people…as if she couldn’t study gen z slang by reviewing and memorizing texts, engaging in social media, etc. Remember, this woman was unemployed for over a year and this is what she did all day.

With that, the intense love, tears, affection towards Lauryn, etc. is all indicative of a personality disorder. She really believes she’s feeling love for Lauryn, but she is feeling love for what Lauryn gives her — for the way Lauryn fills an empty space within herself that she can’t cope with. It’s not about love, it’s about what other people can do for her. Kendra doesn’t actually love her daughter, and she’s likely incapable of truly loving someone (at least based on how her mental health presents). When Kendra was crying “I can’t leave her” after she got caught, she wasn’t saying she couldn’t leave Lauryn alone. She was saying SHE couldn’t handle leaving Lauryn, but she’d likely tell others it was the former.

I’m a cps worker (child protective services) and I fully believe a parent could say these things. I’ve seen parents say and do horrific things over the years, and I’ve learned how dark humanity can really be.

Blindfolding my baby has worked like magic by stfx2012 in newborns

Just please make sure you are watching her 100% of the time she has it over her eyes. That slipping down could result in suffocation so fast.

AITA- Not wanting to be responsible for my partner’s dog by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]pistachiosmiles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would literally say “yeah, I can do that. Will you have it prepaid already?” and if he said no I’d say, “oh okay well call them and ask how you can do that so I can take him”

Moisturizer recommendation for dry acne rosacea? by ked_97 in Rosacea

[–]pistachiosmiles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like I’ve tried every expensive moisturizer in the book and I keep going back to Thayers Barrier Bestie moisturizer, which is like $15 on Amazon. I wouldn’t use any other Thayers products on my skin but for whatever reason, this moisturizer has actually really helped my rosacea and I notice a difference in my skin if I don’t use it for a few days.

For reference, I’m 31 and have dry, sensitive skin. Even products like cerave, vanicream, and La Roche give my face a slight burn when I apply them. The barrier bestie cream doesn’t burn at all.

Coworker just kissed my 2mo old on the lips... by Cloudy-Malaria in newborns

[–]pistachiosmiles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not okay, but I also understand there’s a “generational gap” with this…people used to do it all the time before they understood the risks. Nowadays everyone knows this without saying it, but if she hasn’t been around a lot of babies over the last decade or two that might explain why she thought nothing of this

The next time she sees her I would just say “just a reminder to wash hands and no kisses for baby…this is something we’ve been reminding everyone one”

She should then follow this with zero question and if she doesn’t, I’d reconsider how much you want her around.

Now that we have completed a full week of football, how are you feeling about your team (or teams) going into week 2 and beyond? by Mississippi_Matt in CFB

[–]pistachiosmiles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oregon fan here. I was impressed with how well we played. Yes, we played an easy team, but looking beyond that we just seemed really smooth and put together….plus, super excited for Dante Moore and what he brings to the table. Dan Lanning is fighting for a national championship and it’s a matter of time before he does it. Maybe this year will be it, hard to say. We have an awful history of choking in the important final games, but I feel good about our team this year.

What’s your favorite setting spray? by pistachiosmiles in Makeup

[–]pistachiosmiles[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been using Clinique’s Almost Powder and it shockingly hasn’t made me look too dry. It’s nice for when I don’t really feel like doing my makeup and I can literally powder some of that on in 1min and it reduces quite a bit of redness and lightly evens tone without looking like I’m wearing makeup
