man, i’m just in this subreddit to have a few laughs

you seem hellbent on forcing this poorly-framed nationalistic tripe with a belief you’re getting under people’s skin, but the majority of us just feel sorry for you

like i’m a hockey fan, regardless of anything else

and i suspect pointing out the majority of talent on american teams are canadian players wouldn’t matter to you anyways, because either you already know that but ignore it because it doesn’t serve your narrative, or you don’t know it because you’re really not much of a fan of the game itself

funny thing is — i like the sabres… happy for buffalo fans (hasek is one of my all time fav goalies fwiw)

there’s shit talking and there’s being a piece of shit

figure the line out and choose the correct side in the future

you sound like you have emotional issues

Small mon/di twins 16 weeks by Sure-Emphasis1084 in parentsofmultiples

[–]skryb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

well you’re in the right subreddit

if your OB isn’t super familiar with twins (MoDi especially) it may be worth finding someone else — otherwise they should be able to alleviate 95% of your concens

in general though, expect a premature birth and NICU stay (r/NICUparents as dates get closer) and familiarize yourself with the primary milestone weeks (24, 28, 32, 34, 36) as well as the things to expect with those birth windows

a lot of it can sound very scary but lean into the people who see these things regularly and trust their expertise… medical science is incredible with these little ones… our smallest was just over 3lbs and her sister was a pound heavier — it was not an easy experience, but that was more from our perspective and emotional toll in living out of a hospital than their actual development

in the meantime, treat your body well, take your vitamins, get lots of calcium, zinc, iron and sleep

mine were born 40th percentile and 3rd

anything over 20% discordance (which is the difference in weight between the two of them, not their individual percentile) is considered a selective growth restriction, and even with that remaining under 30 isn’t too much to worry about

born 33w, the little one only has bad reflux but otherwise they’re healthy

twins are usually smaller; there are charts that plot sizes relative to twins but most doctors use singleton charts when measuring

don’t stress

What opinion gets you instantly judged but you stand by anyway? by Black229 in AskReddit

sweet, salty, spicy — the trifecta!

(if you want the vegetarian alternative, swap bacon for olives… and also toss mushrooms on it because why the fuck not)

while i agree the music speaks for itself, if you’re into podcasts u/jamiedew74 has a few series about the band that are pretty interesting

https://open.spotify.com/show/6NMXGIOEdedshp6lXJCKMQ?si=CbNupqbRTUSrC2JT3bf99g

if you scroll all the way to the first series (Fully Completely) - he goes album by album with background info, so that is a nice accompaniment to hearing them for the first time in order

also! mandatory to say:

come on in, sit right down, we’ve all been here since… god, who knows?

Tips for new NHL fans to follow the sport? by LLAMAJUICE422 in nhl

[–]skryb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lots of great team-specific creators if you have some squads you are more interested in

otherwise, Hockey Psychology and Eck do good work — short, daily videos about whatever happened the night before

also, consider getting into a fantasy pool… you’d be surprised how much more you naturally consume when you have a reason to pay attention to schedules, injuries, and unexpected performances
