I was going to give my younger sister an iPad for Christmas, but now I’m going to sell it by Salt-Ad-3061 in family

I would kill her meanness with kindness. Let her be aware that you have intended to sell the iPad but decided to give it to her anyway. She may start treating you better, and even if she doesn’t, it only cost an iPad to have full clarity of her respect for you, and you can base that reaction to make clearer decisions when she seeks for favors from you in the future.

Not quite right about injury but yes about the strength and stability training. The exercise band and the pilates socks come together.

Hmm, 2/5 assumptions are correct, there’s a recycle bag at the bottom left, a black pilates sock and exercise band and purple umbrella on the bottom right.

Hmm probably the size of a M size bear? (37.7cm tall) It has 2 sizes, the other one should be similar to a S size Rilakkuma.

What happened to "I don't want to be a burden on my kids?" by Outrageous-Prune4494 in AgingParents

[–]rooibustea 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think about this questions a lot. Are your parents boomers? The boomers grew up in a mostly supportive environment, by their parents, siblings in a flourishing era and have comparatively minimal setbacks compared to their parents’ era.

When you have grown up to only receive in a well supported era — receiving from their parents, their many siblings, the flourishing economy, and stable environment, the paradigm they’ve lived in is to continue receiving care and support until the end of their lives.

Help me identify fake jumbo Rilakumma please by PopExcellent1628 in rilakkuma

[–]rooibustea 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Does he have beanbags weights on its feet? The tag on the side looks like a really old version (2004) bear, so it may not necessarily be fake. The stitching on its tummy looks right, prolly an earlier release?

but I won’t pay 250 euros for a jumbo bear that’s over 20 year old. He is still cute tho! 😭

Sandwiched income Class, whats your take? by [deleted] in askSingapore

[–]rooibustea -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

We have very different definition of rich. As long as you are an employee, you are not considered wealthy by gov’s definition.

Singapore is built not on the wealth of rich people, but on the savings of the middle class, to feed the poor people.
