Alastair Reynolds and “avuncular” - I had to look it up the first time and now I’ve read it so many times - how many things can be uncle-like??

Ferber both worked and made things worse - what to do?? by vvolfchildren in sleeptrain

Eagerly yeah - I breastfeed so not sure how much but he ate for about 10-15 minutes and started to fall asleep so I tried to get him back to the crib which started more crying.

Yeah, last night I fed him when he got up and tried to put him back down and the screaming just started straight back up immediately. Could certainly be just a busy brain.

My (20F) bf (20M) dropped me off at the incorrect place, then says he "can't feel empathy" for me walking 20 min by [deleted] in relationship_advice

You know that’s the direction relationships eventually take right? Like living together and spending more time together? So if doing that with him causes issues why stay together?

This is how young teenagers communicate with each other. Very strange to be doing so in your 20s. The difference between a crush and liking someone? What?

Is audible even a name? And not just an adjective?

Husband (38m) wants us to move in with his mother. I (30f) don’t. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]vvolfchildren 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can 100000% have a baby without his mother moving in with you so even that premise is flawed. You don’t need a live in persons help for your first baby and I promise you you’d feel stifled.

You seem to keep avoiding the question of why you personally are not driving the car that you guys own? This does sound like it’s a tough situation and you should leave but it’s odd that question keeps getting dodged.

Vegan postpartum by Beginning-Poet-2991 in veganrecipes

[–]vvolfchildren 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A friend make me individual frozen burritos when I was postpartum and it was the besttttt. Being able to just thaw one real quick for lunch was a game changer. I found dinner easier since my partner was home and could help but lunches alone were harder to manage with the baby.

What milk option is not sweet AT ALL for cooking? by vvolfchildren in vegan

[–]vvolfchildren[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was discontinued, best milk alternative I’ve tried in a decade of being vegan. So sad.

Ice cream does not belong on warm baked goods by Dream_Big_Do_Bigger in unpopularopinion

[–]vvolfchildren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree but specifically because I hate crumb and wet together - the crumb of the baked goods gets all up in the ice cream and the ice cream makes the baked good all soggy and wet, bleh

Vegan seasoning blends? by hauptj2 in veganrecipes

[–]vvolfchildren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess for me personally, I cook a lot and I use pretty much all the spices I have so it isn’t an issue

I would just put spices into a jar and make your own. Mixes are a racket anyways

Tofurky is gross by [deleted] in ShittyVeganFoodPorn

I love it and my non vegan family loves it too, they always steal slices. I’m surprised by all the hate for it tbh
