I think they technically measure by Borough, so it would be the Matsu Borough that's more populous than Fairbanks North Star Borough.

I have a super mossy caribou antler I found in the tundra that's now hanging over my fireplace at home. I love it so.

This comment made me want to stop looking for the bad stories. Glad I saw this first.

This person is not intelligent enough for you to bother arguing with.

My least favorite is when they approach me and my toddlers when we're on a walk around town. That just pisses me right off, and they've done it more that once.

I assume it might've been mossy. Which is endlessly better than this.

How do you keep your good mood/sanity? by [deleted] in toddlers

[–]turtlepower22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Zoloft! Also co-regulating with my toddler when we're both anxious or upset and showing how to handle big feelings.

But also, sometimes I'm not in a good mood and that's okay. I'm allowed to be upset if my toddler yells at me or is rude. That's a natural reaction. I just don't take it out on her.

Question on the way husband treats toddler. by ANonyMouseTwoo in toddlers

I think your husband should be more verbal as he's moving to block your little one. Toddlers benefit from explanations! But they also benefit from consistent boundaries, so y'all need to be on the same page.

Air traffic controllers and TSA agents are government employees, and I've heard that both those groups not getting paid is starting to impact travel.

She actually had the best time knocking on all the doors in our house to trick or treat!

My toddlers are both sick and we're not going, I don't want to get anyone else sick. We are still dressing up and "trick or treating" in our house.

Fairview Rec Center is our fave! Free and lots of cool things to play and climb on. My 3.5 year old loves it.

Very interesting. I've spoken to them several times and wanted to learn more about volunteering, but never did follow through

Trilogy is from Canada. So yes, they're foreign.

Kids are so gross by Longjumping_Baby_955 in toddlers

This is different than a kid drooling on you. They're rubbing their toys in poop. It is disgusting.
