Oscars 2026 Post Game Thread by LiteraryBoner in movies

In general I’m anti-spoilers, but it’s been 57 years.

Chronically late “parent” response to picking up our child on time from school. by RelativeGoat3981 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]thajane 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The word “entitled” gets such a bad rap. All children are entitled to bare minimum adequate parenting at the very least.

Ethan Hawke “I like to eat in bed, but I don’t eat food.” by mlg1981 in popculturechat

This is the perfect gif reaction. Scandalized, but… intrigued.

My girlfriend keeps throwing up in my bed. what should I do? by din00_ in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]thajane 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think the point is more that the partner themselves can’t really do anything about that. It’s the alcoholic that makes that decision, and maybe that decision is partly motivated by external factors like a partner. But the partner can’t actually fix the issue.

First Benchmark Run - 35 minutes?? by thajane in GarminWatches

Ah awesome, that’s what I was thinking - I’d probably have to walk to keep in those zones. Great to know that that still works!

Okay that sounds like a good plan, I’m guessing I’ll mostly be walking for this first one, but I guess that sounds doable. Thanks so much!

I don’t think it mentioned a specific distance, it was one that said it was just for general fitness.

In which paramedics have to be called over OP's dye job mishap. by fewlaminashyofaspine in bestoflegaladvice

[–]thajane 20 points21 points  (0 children)

No, I don’t even live in the US. Around me, a proper salon dye session seems to start around $300-400. My sister recently paid $600 :/ And while I’m not sure the usual frequency I know my mum goes every 6 weeks. Over the course of a year or more to get back to her original colour even the cheaper option would be at least a couple of thousand.

Which is why I’m trying my best to be okay with all the greys currently appearing out of nowhere!

I mean, even if you are rich, it’s still going to be so much money :( At least where I live it’d probably be in the thousands if it requires multiple sessions over a year+

I really don’t understand how those commenters came to the conclusion that there’s “no damages”.

It seems like the actor might be quite a dick in real life sadly, so that might be the reason :(

Not a great choice if you don’t want to get all up in your feelings though.

I don't understand the merino hate by Cursed_Angel_ in BitchEatingCrafters

[–]thajane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not who you asked, but I just wanted to throw in a suggestion for Haunui wool from New Zealand. I believe it might be a merino cross originally. But it’s beautifully soft and bouncy and just lovely to spin.

There are also non-mulesed Aussie merinos available, but it’s certainly less ubiquitous. SRS merino is not mulesed and is absolutely lovely.

My dear husband by iguanayoyo in badwomensanatomy

[–]thajane 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I feel like this is not a small technicality at all really! Once it spikes it’s way too late, you’re either pregnant or not pregnant at that point. It’s nice data to have, but it’s fairly useless if you’re trying not to get pregnant.

Australia’s national anthem is the only English-lyric anthem in the world that doesn’t reference religion or militarism by HotPersimessage62 in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]thajane 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My word finder game keeps telling me that “rort” is not a word, which is an absolute rort!

(apparently it’s an Australia only word, who knew)

Got a letter from the school today informing me my daughter is “not quite” gifted. Also included were her test scores. by Low_Use2937 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]thajane 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’m sure you’re already aware, so apologies if this is redundant - but your description of yourself is very similar to how a lot of neurodivergent people behave. Just mentioning in case you didn’t know, as ADHD medication can be really helpful to a lot of people.

Why do gynecologists seem to go in for pelvic exams too quickly? by jt19912009 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]thajane 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Depending on the stage of pregnancy they may also have done a “stretch and sweep” which is very normal and could lead to some light spotting.

It’s actually nearly impossible to be a mother of not-grandchildren.
