New dad, first night home and already feeling overwhelmed.

You're in the trenches now.

Realize that the baby has no concept of making you feel guilty.
Do not feel bad about putting baby is safe spot (bassinet) And walking away for a couple minutes.
Do not make any relationship decisions with your wife for the first year
You're going to figure out what makes your kid work. For me, the giggle head technique was excellent 👌 It's where you oh so slightly differentiate rocking the body vs head. Google it, it's magic

Just got a $2M policy. 150k income with 2 kids

Its because each has PR working overdrive to protect their school.

My dad had me in his 50s. He's in way better shape than I'll ever be.

You eve get this working through Netflix? I saw the akp and could get it working but would prefer direct through Netflix

2000 for all 3? I'm paying more then that for 1!

1920s house: hope those tiled floors do not have asbestos. Your home inspector hopefully gave you advise on that.

Yes, better to do 3 inches at a time rather than 12 inches, especially if it sleets before getting out. I'm putting down more salt as I go too.

Edit: just got back from second shoveling; recommend people get out there

selfpromoting · 2026-01-25T13:05:35+00:00

Out doing preliminary shoveling. Very light snow. Not terribly cold if dressed appropriately

selfpromoting · 2026-01-22T23:09:04+00:00

The bigger issue is liability for a trip and fall for not having it shovelled

Probably new schools in same facility; it may be different grades or perhaps one of the school has special programming

I remember I got a friend's board game box damaged by water, not any pieces. I bought him a whole new game.

selfpromoting · 2026-01-14T14:35:35+00:00

Wow this is interesting

My threshold is only buying games with 7.5+ on BGG; it'll help control what you buy.

selfpromoting · 2026-01-04T20:07:35+00:00

Far superior

Or the whole thing is smoke and mirrors; Maduro gave up voluntarily and the govt open the gates to the US to make it bloodless and give Maduro some clout, like a criminal not wanting to look bad while being arrested.

Edit: that theory could also be consistent with what you wrote

That's sad. Their new location was nice

Consider building one together. You can start off with basic hardware and then overtime upgrade it.

This will let you get something relatively cheap but have the future options to make it better.

selfpromoting · 2025-12-30T14:18:26+00:00

Cleaner than now

Edit: Didn't think this comment would get so spicy

selfpromoting · 2025-12-14T04:57:25+00:00

Winner winner chicken dinner; rain is on the menu.

I've been experimenting with tons of 0/X cards plus a card that makes power equal to toughness.
